Legalizing Gay Sex and the Hijra

She requested me not to shoot her picture , she had a few days back got married to her toy boy,they had come to Ajmer Sharif to place a chaddar on the fulfillment of their marital bliss and were really taken in by each other.
This was much before gay sex became legal in Delhi..I told her I would shoot her back, she agreed , and I have not directed the shot ..it is natural and spontaneous as you can see ..

Now Gay Sex is became an issue with the Catholics they say it is against the nature of man and god, it should be banned., the Muslims the Hindu right wingers all are up in arms..including the Sikhs.

However Article 377 the draconian sodomy law is against the fundamental right of man as far consensual same sex goes..it was a guilt of the fucked Englishman dumped on the soul of our nation, a nation that gave the entire world the manual to make sex without just being missionary..we gave them Kama Sutra ,they turned it upside down and gave it back to us as porn..this is what you call the western mans sense of ingratitude and sick sense of toilet humor.

Well I am ambivalent but as a friend of the hijras ,a marginalized society of untouchables I feel its time we became more mature more tolerant to changing times..gave people the basic rights to live they want to live without hurting the sentiments of the nation, terrorism is worse than issues of same sex, or gay sex , they should be bought under the scanner..

Homosexuality has always been there and will always be there law or no law , it has survived 149 years of being criminalized , I think making it legal was the mature and finest acumen of judgment on the part of the erstwhile judges of the Delhi High Court.
