YEARS ago, I attended a seminar on gender issues organized by an international NGO. Some young journalists comprised the core of the participants. Well and good, I told myself, because the cliché holds true that, perhaps, hope lies in them.I still remember legendary debates with the macho editors of a newspaper I worked for in the mid-1990s when I was a young editor.They used to splash photos of near-naked 'prostitutes' and of raped housemaids on the front page of the newspaper.
Now that I am reminded of it, one of our best singers went to me during the break for the PETA play 'Caregivers' and asked me, 'What is the difference between transgenders and transsexuals?'I said that a transsexual is someone who wears the customary attire of the opposite sex , but that's just that. He does not identify with the opposite sex. His sexual orientation and gender identity are still male.
