Article No.1
Some countries allow change in legal gender, generally contingent on
proving material reconfiguration of body through medical procedures,
such policies have been criticized for trying to subsume the unique
identities of gender-nonconforming individuals within the binary
gender system. some scholars point out potential problems associated
with the creation of a single third gender category for all the disparate
individuals who do not fit in the binary gender categories
(BUTLER, 2004; Dufner, 2015).

The problems inherent in limiting the identity of gender-noncon-

forming individuals to the binary gendered legal system (Monro, 2005;
Spade, 2008; Salamon, 2010), and the dynamics of legal articulation of
the third gender (Bochenek & Knigh, 2012; Knight, Flores & Nezhad
2015).
