before i go on a hiatus for two weeks here's my opinion
hijra is not a slur. neither is kinnar or aravani. respect hijras, kinnars and aravanis. they are transfolk and intersex people. no they are not non binary. yes they have existed for centuries. yes some people use the word like a slur in the same way some people try to use queer or gay as a slur, but that doesn't mean the word itself is a slur. please stop saying that its a slur. this pride month, please educate yourself on these communities if you're trying to learn more about historical trans communities, trans poc or in general support trans rights.
