In ancient India, Hindu gods like Vishnu, Indra, Krishna, and Kama Deva were often depicted with feminine traits by Sculptors and Painters, which were considered an attractive trait by our Ancestors. We Indians don't need to embrave Western definitions of LGBTQ+, We just have to embrace our own Culture and Roots. Those values were superior to Western Valeus that exist even today.
Very well said! The intolerance we now see in our society for queer people is infact the residual effect of mughals and british with their Abrahamic religious influence. Otherwise our beautiful sanatan dharm is inclusive to all.
While this narrative on progressive non partisan politics is very much needed, and truly our India is vibrant democracy with opportunities and voice for everyone, we’re still a country fighting on masjid and mandal. Where honour killings are rampant and goes unnoticed. Routine rape of women, extremely parochial attitude of politicians etched in old school thoughts of patriarchy and gender stereotypes. Honestly whatever he is saying sounds utopian and frankly from an elite perspective. Being in prestigious institutions might bring such progressive thoughts however our India today is a cocktail of elitism at its finest with fine dining and couture and malnourishment and extreme deprivation on the other hand. A closer, more humble look into the ground realities needs to be looked at.
@@saltypotatoeses it's not that i think. it's about what those who are at the grassroots and belong to the lgbtq community need the most. Housing, jobs, laws that would protect them from harassment, laws against sexual violence, laws against sexual violence for sex worker belonging to the lgbtq community etc.
@@saltypotatoeses the right to marry can come later too. First we need to make sure that people can survive even if they are thrown out of their houses on account of their sexuality and won't be turned away from the police station if they face violence. Won't be harrased by the police themselves.
Politics used to be such a joke in India that even expecting politicians to be politically aware and care about our rights seemed liked a joke. But seeing someone so well educated and honest about something like his queerness is a big breath if fresh air. And the kind of change we need to see. We need younger people in the game.
