    1. Thanks Ngozi. My company supports all genders and ran a series of interviews with LGBTQ+ employees. It was sad to hear how these people had been treated in their home–how one of the parents declines to see what’s clear as day. Two of my favourite managers are LGBTQ+ and they are awesome people. They accepted who they are and their families are fine with it. It helped become what they are today.

      2. Thank you, Ngozi. I hope keep I getting inspired. A lot of times, it feels that the stories are writing themselves. I don’t write them consciously. I just keep putting one line after the another and it ends into a story.

    1. Thank you, Pete! I hope people will understand that transcending gender roles/identity is not the latest trend. It is a state of being for 5% people around the world since ancient times. In ancient India, ‘Kinnar’ (people with gender under question) were employed in women security and education. They held high and respectable posts in the Royal circle. It was only with time that they lost the respect.

      2. I just wish they are now accepted as normal humans. I follow a blog whose writer often writes about his procedure of gender transformation. His struggle with himself is painful.
