Working on the gender studies respond paper, I came to a realization that in today;s world, do gender really matter? Now most of the people might be offended this statement. Obviously, gender do matter. It is what we are, either male, female or a member of LGBTQ community.
Yet it is no more an uncommon notion to hear stories about one transgender or the other. Do we remember the time when the Shumail Raj case gained such an immense negative publicity?? They were looked down upon. demorailsed and humiliated for a sex change and then a marriage. However, yet we have Farzana-Faizan case in news and yet it hasn't gained a huge chaos or none of the news channels have raised a questions or opened a forum for discussion. Oh I forgot, we are caught up with Veena Malik and the Bigboss shack.
I am certainly not being critical about Faizan's transformation and neither do I have a say on it. Nature's job it is. However, I am trying to merely point out that issues regarding gender are now quite common and do not create a huge uproar among the masses. Tolerance has finally been achieved by the locals.
Hence, the motto should be "Live and let live".
