Abstract
Equality is a crucial right that needs to be inculcated in the society to promote an all-round social progress and social justice. For ensuring social equality, gender sensitivity as a value that needs to be enshrined in the society. In our society there is a ‘HE’, there is a ‘SHE’ and there are the ‘OTHERS’. The discussion on these ‘OTHER’, so called Third gender is still considered a taboo. Many of these individuals are still living marginalized and socially excluded lives. Gender sensitization can invoke awareness that each individual should be treated with equal respect regardless of their sex. In contemporary society third gender poets have started to voice the chatter of their minds through their poetry. Poetry plays a crucial role in mirroring the overall tenor of the society and it can influence and rectify the total social thought process too.
