Treći rod je koncept po kojem neki pojedinci kategoriziraju sami sebe kao ni muškarci ni žene ili ih društvo tako kategorizira. To je također socijalna kategorija prisutna u društvima koja prepoznaju tri ili više spolova. Pod pojmom treće obično se razumijeva "ostali"; neki antropolozi i sociolozi opisali su četvrti,[1] peti,[2] i "neki" [3] spol.
Osobno ili društveno identificiranje osobe kao muškarac, žena ili drugo, obično je definirano i rodnim identitetom pojedinca i rodnom ulogom u određenoj kulturi u kojoj živi. Nemaju sve kulture strogo definirane rodne uloge.[4][5][6]
U različitim kulturama treći ili četvrti spol mogu predstavljati vrlo različite stvari. Havajcima i Tahićanima, Māhū je srednje stanje između muškarca i žene, ili „osoba neodređenog spola”.[7] Neki tradicionalni Diné Indijanci jugozapadnog SAD-a priznaju spektar četiri roda: ženstvene žene, muževne žene, ženstvene muškarce i muževne muškarce. [8] Pojam „treći spol” je također bio korišten za opisivanje Hidžri iz Indije[9] koji su stekli pravni identitet, fa'afafine u Polineziji i Albanske zaklete djevice virdžine.[10]
Iako se nalaze u brojnim nezapadnjačkim kulturama, koncepti "treće", "četvrte" i "neke" rodne uloge i dalje su novitet u mainstream zapadnoj kulturi i konceptualnoj misli.[11] Koncept se najbolje prihvaća u modernim LGBT ili queer supkulturama. Zapadnjački znanstvenici, osobito antropolozi, koji su pokušali pisati o južnoazijskim hidžrama ili indijanskim "rodnim varijantama" i ljudima dvojakog duha - često nastojali razumjeti pojam "treći rod" isključivo na jeziku suvremenog LGBT-a zajednice. No, drugi znanstvenici - posebno autohtoni znanstvenici - ističu da je nedostatak kulturnih razumijevanja i konteksta zapadnjačkih znanstvenika glavne struje doveo do raširenog pogrešnog predstavljanja ljudi trećeg spola, kao i do pogrešnog predstavljanja ne-zapadnjačkih stranih kultura, uključujući i to da li se koncept LGBT-a zapravo uopće može primjeniti na te kulture.[12][13][14][15]

"Unfortunately, depending on an oral tradition to impart our ways to future generations opened the floodgates for early non-Native explorers, missionaries, and anthropologists to write books describing Native peoples and therefore bolstering their own role as experts. These writings were and still are entrenched in the perspective of the authors who were and are mostly white men."

"[Two-Spirit] implies that the individual is both male and female and that these aspects are intertwined within them. The term moves away from traditional Native American/First Nations cultural identities and meanings of sexuality and gender variance. It does not take into account the terms and meanings from individual nations and tribes. ... Although two-spirit implies to some a spiritual nature, that one holds the spirit of two, both male and female, traditional Native Americans/First Nations peoples view this as a Western concept."

"At the conferences that produced the book, Two-Spirited People, I heard several First Nations people describe themselves as very much unitary, neither "male" nor "female," much less a pair in one body. Nor did they report an assumption of duality within one body as a common concept within reservation communities; rather, people confided dismay at the Western proclivity for dichotomies. Outside Indo-European-speaking societies, "gender" would not be relevant to the social personae glosses "men" and "women," and "third gender" likely would be meaningless. The unsavory word "berdache" certainly ought to be ditched (Jacobs et al. 1997:3-5), but the urban American neologism "two-spirit" can be misleading."
