Let’s TRANSform to TRANSparent and prepare for a TRANSaction!!!
“Closets kill, they suffocate us. We drown in the refuse of our own lies, lies that say we are alright. We are only alright when we can be seen for who we are.” Well, it says it all, can you even envisage how perplexing it is to stand in front of a mirror and dress as someone else. In anticipation to lead a normal life and to satisfy the antiquated prejudice of the millions, they lead a life enshrouding their real selves. A life which we believed is granted once and has to be lead to the fullest they live mystifying their gender.
In a country like India beating other nations with a huge number in the race of superstitions and taking pride in enthralling itself as a ‘family country’ obliterate it’s family values when a transgender is born. I feel flabbergasted to comprehend that these families never speak to their transgender kids. This is a society we live in where the so-called societal haughtiness is colossal than a decent life. Your genitals umpire your gender and that is not all the bifurcation still perpetuates, and we have gays and lesbians. Well if you can’t predestine your life partner in a ‘developing country’ like India don’t be flummoxed, hold your breath, people can’t choose their bodies too. What shall one fight for then??
Our bodies are our real wealth. Not a matter of astonishment when it comes to wealth, it is never your own, it is substantially ‘entitled’ to be discussed in public. So it is admissible if one chew over and has a trouble with what do you do with your private parts. Hence if you are a gay or a lesbian an attack over your individuality is justified. But if you are straight and people talk about what goes on behind the doors at midnight about you is an unacceptable offense. The irony isn’t it. And these are not the rules set by the books of law we pretend to rely upon but our own intellectual mindsets and prejudices.
Problems will prevail with life and hence revolution will never end. What we youngsters need to do is to empathize with the intricacies of the other’s lives. If you are satisfied in your life, hunt and make the other one comfortable with it. We are a developing nation and when it is taking too long for us to be economically developed let us take the hold of this time and hence develop full-fledged. And it’s not arduous, what we need to do is just be supportive, accept people as they want themselves to be if we can’t solve a problem let’s not escalate it to the next level. Let us TRANSform to be acceptable, and be enthusiastic to be a TRANSparent and hence prepare ourselves for a positive TRANSaction. The change in laws will make them live a life but the change in our perception will make them earn respect and fuel them to revolutionalize the system.
Audacity of hope..
