Notes

  1. In Tuthinan society, five gender identities are traditionally recognised: masculine male, masculine female, intersex, feminine male, and feminine female. Traditional view holds that full marriage is only applicable between masculine male and feminine female, or masculine female and feminine male. However, it has often been interpreted to allow marriage between any of the five genders except its own.
