Gay pride surfaces on the streets of India and around the world...
People in several countries have accepted gays as a part of their society and have given them the rights and respect due to any individual in the society. The Indian society is having problems in accepting homosexuals, bisexuals and transgenders, yet there are people who consider them to be a part of the society, and Himanshu, who works with an NGO that is fighting for gay rights, happens to be one. “I don’t think that anyone should have a problem with homosexuals, they are normal human beings. When the ancient Greeks did not differentiate between people based on their sexual orientation, then why should we fix ourselves to certain rules, which we have made for our own benefit?”
In the current scenario if someone dares to think beyond the set rules then he or she is not welcome to be a part of the community anymore. If a person’s son or daughter turns out to be gay then sadly many go ahead and disown them, throw them out of the house, or worse force them to mask their true selves and marry people of the opposite sex, thus ruining lives of not one but of two people!
Most gays abide by the norms of the society, silently hoping that some day they would be able to make their lives better, live the way they want to live, and be the person they want to be, and not what others want them to be.
