Kathoey

Kathoey or katoey (Thai: กะเทย), is a word used in Thailand to describe a trans woman, a person of a third gender, an intersex person, or an effeminate gay man. It is most often rendered as "ladyboy" in English. The term can be considered pejorative; It has a meaning similar to the English language 'fairy' or 'queen'.

In Thai origin myths, kathoey (along with male and female) was one of the three original human sexes/genders.
