I so want to break the news to one of these guys that lesbian doesn't mean what they think it means. It will be like when a kid figures out that santa doesn't exist. Imagine their horror when they figure out bhabhi wants fish tacos and not their hot dick.

Homosexuality in India in not about unicorns and rainbows

When I tell people that I am gay, they say, “You mean lesbian?”

I refrain from using the term “lesbian” to label my sexuality because of the widespread kinkification of “lesbianism”.

Marriage Proposals

Both my partner and I have received a fair number of marriage proposals from straight and gay men. Some of these men want to marry me save me from “lesbianism”, some want to fulfill their fantasies while a few want to marry me because I haven’t had a “real man” yet.



Lack Of Awareness

I grew up the the glorified 90s. I grew up in a time and place where people called each other gay to mock them. It was a time where gay and eunuch were used interchangeably and people were highly ignorant and intolerant towards homosexuality.

This is how much a friend is aware:




Dating Scene

As of 2016, we have had no Pride in my city. The number of openly gay women here is negligible.

Dating was hard. When I was a young teen, there were hardly any dating websites, and nobody was openly gay at my school. All the girls I dated till I was 15 were closeted. Another girl who was open about her bisexuality was only so she could be more attractive to men. There were girls who wanted me to let their boyfriend watch/participate in bed. Also, the number of guys on lesbian dating sites is alarming.

These are some WOMEN interested in Women-



Lack Of Sensitization:

If I had a dime for each time someone told me that it’s just a “phase”, I could afford to move to a more accepting country. When I told a friend who had a thing for me that I am seeing a girl, he went ballistics and said “ why a girl, it is not like you are deprived”.



When I was in school, there was a guy who was often severely bullied by the “masculine” classmates because he was effeminate. Kids who weren’t “manly enough” were often a subject to ridicule and bashing. No one stopped that. People thought it was normal and the right thing to do. Even now I have a number of friend who find hijras “scary”.

Lack Of Support from Family:

My parents do not support homosexuality. They never will. I know that one day I will have to leave them to be with my partner. I hate having to keep my relationship a secret. I want to show my partner off. I want to have it acknowledged. And I know that I will never have that. In some years, my parents will expect me to marry a man. They will want grandkids. Being in a closeted relationship is extremely emotionally draining.

This is what my mother commented on facebook a year ago:



Translation: Do not remove Section 377 or the citizens of the country will feel unsafe.

Draconian Laws:

Section 377 Of IPC states “Whoever voluntarily has carnal intercourse against the order of nature with any man, woman or animal, shall be punished with 1[imprisonment for life], or with imprisonment of either description for a term which may extend to ten years, and shall also be liable to fine.”

Surrogacy Bill: It prohibits commercial surrogacy and allows ethical surrogacy to needy infertile couples. It also prohibits single parents, homosexual couples, live-in relationships couples to opt for altruistic surrogacy.

Marriage- Same-sex couples cannot legally marry or obtain a civil partnership in India.

Shortly after the Indian Supreme Court upheld Section 377, Maulana Madni, of the Jamiat Ulema-e-Hind said -

"If these same sex couples adopt children, the child will grow up with a skewed version of a family. Society will disintegrate. If we are to look at countries in the West who have allowed same-sex marriages, you will find the mental tensions they suffer from."

Religion:

India is a “secular” country. Every major religion in India condemns homosexuality. It feels scary to live in place which has more than 330 million gods and yet I can count on neither one of them for their blessings.



Society

Attitude of Indians towards homosexuality can be hurtful. Society makes it so hard for us as if it isn’t hard enough already. Protesters slander us with picket signs reading unnatural, uncultural, anti-national, anti-social, etc. People tell me that I do not know what love is. But how can they see love when they are blinded by their own hatred.

Let me tell you what being a lesbian in India is like, I was 12 when I figured I wasn’t straight. I tried to conform to societal molds, tried to be straight and be what men wanted, even though men were not what I wanted,
I was in an open relationship with a girl when I wanted to be monogamous.
It lasted years because I was scared that if she'd leave I'd be all alone, nowhere to belong. I was told I would not be accepted,
I was told I have no future with my wonderful girlfriend who I want for a wife, I was told that all of this is just a phase, my LIFE is just a phase, my LOVE is just a phase...

And few months, I was called samaaj ki gandagi (scum of society) by the comedian Sunil Pal and nobody will file an FIR against that, we are no icons, we are the scums of the society, just 4% on this land,
And we're already declared criminals based on who we love..
Why does our love attract your ridicule? Love being trampled by hate...

THAT is samaaj ki gandagi


Overall, being with a girl is amazing. If sexuality were a choice, I would still be a lesbian.
