Sex : transgenders and Sex-workers - Discussion

I would like to thank VijayTV for initiating this discussion on a media. I think the society slowly would understand things in the right way.

I always welcome any healthy discussion on any topics. Readers interested to hear this discussion, please do visit the following link.

I am not here endorsing anything that has been discussed but rightly endorse the initiative and courage of these participants in this discussion.Its really a welcome initiative from a media.This show is run by a transgender called "ROSE",that is also a real welcome move from TV media.

My association with transgender happened by reading a "novel written in one of the famous tamil weekly ananda vikatan in early 90's ". A novel written fully about transgender by su.samuthiram, readers if get a chance can read that novel (vadamalli). As a teen age boy, I was fully taken by that novel and shocked to know in entirety the state of these people who could neither live like MALE or FEMALE. I invite readers just to imagine what if they happen to be one among them. don't be surprised that I used to medidate on this and started believe i am becoming one. I still could feel the pain of being a transgender and being treated indifferently by the society.

Like ROSE there are many transgenders who lead somewhat decent life, but not everybody is fortunate enough to live a decent life. Everyone of them undergo highly humiliating moment in their life, thank God, they face them in one of the other way.if that is a case with transgenders in the society, one could understand the life of SEX workers. probably we fail to treat "people as people" or is it that "we fail to realize that we are human".

Whatever It may be, I welcome this initiative by ROSE to bring REAL SEX WORKERS on the show. If you carefully watch the show, you would realize there were two REAL sex workers one among them was willingly became sex worker as she liked this life-style as she says,whilst the other was forced by society. We all have our own reasons to live in LIFE.

Wish everybody realize their role and live their life happily.

your comments are always welcome.

Tamil Blog - Floating??

Hmm....Its been for quite long long time since I blogged. If you have gone through Life Lesson#1 , you would have understood, what keeps me busy and how organized I am and how do I manage my Time.

And if readers remember well that I have already mentioned in one of my posts why am I not able to blog regularly. Mostly It is something like "Spirit is willing but procrastination or chatting or something or other takes my time".

It is not that I have problem in thinking about what to post,but it is mostly the confident in posting the contents in my mind. Why have I started to think in these way?.

Recently I started to reflect on this topic, why am i not very much doing what I supposed to do?. Followings are my findings,
  • Need to improve English Grammar
  • Need to improve Vocabulary
  • Need to improve confident in blogging in English
  • Should start thinking in English instead of 'Vernacular language'

Have been thinking of floating 'Tamil blog' as well.

is it ok if I start blogging in both Tamil & English here. or Can any help me in getting 'Tamil blog' up?.
