"India is home to a large number of eunuchs, castrated men required to

gruesome crimes like castrating males forcibly, rob unwary people and
cajole people in public places."

I'm glad I don't live in India, for this one reason: I would quickly get so sick of being labeled "third gender" I'd be mad enough to castrate the next dude who called me that.

And that journalist is a bigoted ignorant jerk.
