"It is dangerous, extremely dangerous here," said Vimala, a
Chennai-based transsexual, about to leave the village and go back to
the safety of her lodge in nearby Villupuram town. Many like her
shouted for help on the last night of 'chithirai' when the festival
reached a peak."

<sigh> Why do men have to be such pigs?
Now before anyone gets all up in arms about me making a sexist comment, I didn't say all men... I just mean the ones who behave like this... but realistically... why is it always men who engage in this behavior against women and not vice versa? Oh that's right because we "provoke" them ::)
