That's positive news.
But I'm really tired of Indian journalists' use of the misleading word "eunuch" to translate hijra. The problem with calling them "trans women" is that in India they are not acknowledged as women, they are relegated to "third gender" status.
In one respect, being around Hindus is advantageous to me--I get my eyebrows threaded in a Hindu beauty salon where men are not allowed--the owner calls me "she." But because of the mandatory third-gender category, I'm glad I'm not Indian, I need to be the woman I am.
