Chanith (arabisch خنيث, DMG ḫanīṯ), auch Khanith, im englischen meistens Xanit genannt, ist das umgangsspachliche arabische Wort für Menschen in Oman, die entweder, obwohl sie mit männlichen Geschlechtsteilen geboren wurden, die männliche Geschlechtsrolle weitgehend ablehnen (im Westen: Transgender) oder aber auch Menschen, die man im Westen als intersexuell klassifizieren würde, bei denen also die körperlichen Geschlechtsmerkmale nicht eindeutig sind.
