I'm glad to know positive progress is being made as of late. If I may ask the thread, we've had male eunuch, MtF eunuchs, non-binaries, have we ever had an hijra proper in the forums?

I personally don't recall any hijras here or on EAv2. I'm sure it would be interesting to share notes with them. Maybe Fusion would even give them their own section because that highly marginalized community doesn't seem to have an online voice (at least in the English-speaking world). It would be a good thing for everybody.

The beauty of Hijras shows the benefit of being a eunuch.

I have to agree with Wheely that beauty isn't the way I would describe them

But are they castrated? It seems that they're more of a drag queen.

There was a equivalent for some north amerindians. There were males that were considered women, and not eunuchs. They weren't castrated

Yeah in India many hijras had castration as well penectomy, some are just transvestites with their junk still there.

When I was younger I had a eunuch lover and he still considered himself a male even he was cross dressing and that was during the time when I stayed in India.
