To different cultures or individuals, trimale may represent an intermediate state between man and woman, a state of being both (such as "the spirit of a man in the body of a woman"), the state of being neither (neuter), the ability to cross or swap genders, or another category altogether independent of men and women.

1. Indian Supreme Court granted constitutional recognition to trimales as a third gender on 15th april 2014 and also gave them the right to have family.
2. Those identifying as a Trimale (third sex/gender) should have the same rights as those identifying as male or female.
3. Seldom, our society realises or cares to realise the trauma, agony and pain which the member of Trimale/Transgender community undergo, nor appreciates the innate feelings of the members of the Trimale/Transgender community, especially of those whose mind and body disown their biological sex. Our society often ridicules and abuses the Trimale/Transgender community and in public places like railway stations, bus stands, schools, workplaces, malls, theatres, hospitals, they are sidelined and treated as untouchables, forgetting the fact that the moral failure lies in the society's unwillingness to contain or embrace different gender identities and expressions, a mindset which we have to change." - Justice Radhakrishnan
