Both male and female same-sex sexual activity are legal in Niue, but same-sex couples and households headed by same-sex couples are not eligible for the same legal protections available to opposite-sex married couples.[1] HistorySimilarly to the Cook Islands, Samoa and New Zealand, Niue possesses a traditional third gender population: the fiafifine (also known as the fakafifine). They have traditionally been accepted by Niuean society,[2][3] and would play an important domestic role in communal life. In 2007, during a gathering of delegates from around the Pacific in Māngere, New Zealand, a local fiafifine called out the discrimination and stigma faced by the fiafifine community: "Our communities were an accepted part of Pacific life and culture prior to Western colonisation, but have been subject to much stigma and discrimination in more recent times."[4] Legality of same-sex sexual activitySame-sex sexual activity is legal in Niue. Even though Niue is a part of the Realm of New Zealand, homosexuality has only been legal since 2007 (while in New Zealand it has been legal since 1986).[1] Recognition of same-sex relationshipsSame-sex unions are not recognized (even though they are in New Zealand).[1] Living conditionsMuch like the rest of Polynesia, open displays of affection between partners regardless of sexual orientation may offend.[5] Summary table
