'''Bissu,''' a [[metagender]] originating from the Bugis society in Indonesia, is described as a gender that "embodies the totality of masculinity and femininity" and is considered to be "a combination of all genders." It is one of the five genders that the Bugis recognize and is said to play a spiritual role in Bissu culture, said to "bridge the worldly and the divine." Many Bissu are [[intersex]], but not all are. Among the Bissu, four other genders exist in Bugis society. The "''makkunrai'' ("female women"), ''oroani'' ("male men"), ''calalai'' ("female men"), and the ''calabai'' ("male women")." The Bugis culture believes that all five genders must coexist in harmony.
