I was bemused with an article on TOI about a supreme court judgement in Pakistan,,,,pls read:

I actually wanted to wright about this, but this news article did sparkled d fire inside....I have encpouhntered "Hijras" in couple of occassions, in 1997, when i went to delhi to attend my freinds sisters wediing, enroute delhi n kolkatta on train in AP.....
WHO ARE HIJRAS?????
Am writing on my limnited knowledge...
1. males who have more secretion of female hormones (that they started liking men)
2. Womenn who have more secretion of male hormones (that they started liking women)
To me, both are NATURAL PHENOMENON, though i dont agree with it much, due to my religious upbringing..........I cant imagine an animal being homosexual, neither have i seen any proof of it....
To me both the cases proves to be HOMOSEXUALITY........
Its just that our society is not ready to accept Homosexuality ( both legally and societally), that they became classified as HIJRAS.... Which is sad n deeply disturbing!!!!!
Unfortunately, most of the time i post smething on my blog, its wen i get bit drunk....not toally drunk, but getting there. this means, am not happy with my English ( as am not that gr8 with my language ) and i fell very free to write about things the way i feel.....rather than d way otherswill like ( though thats d way i hve been brought up....)

By moving back to the topic, i cldnt digest that the sup-reme court of Pakistan, chaired by Iftikhar chowdary suggested soimething for HIJRAS, rather than analysing and solving the problem for the existence of HIJRAS ( as they dont have any official stand - Male / female )......
Am not sure, whether i am making any sense with my post........
