There was more. Every single item on the list contained either a phenomenon or a turn of phrase I despise.
#Indian history does not the Fuck support queer people.#devdutt pattanaik is invested in proving that queer people EXISTED in Indian history (because he's a gay man)#but all i seem to keep hearing from him is 'specific queer people were sometimes favoured/protected by those in power (priests+monarchs)'#which does NOT indicate widespread acceptance#nor does it explain the widespread slurs and vile homophobic insults in common use#also 'Indian men write poetry + Indian poetry is more romantic by default' is SUCH a fucking bullshit take#that I won't even start because we WILL be here all day#also I'm never wearing a sari or bindi in my fucking life thank you NO thank you. keep them. goodbye.
