Ditch California, you do not even need a visa to get married in Nepal. [Link] What impresses me is a country that is as conservative as ours has actually legalized the marriage while we still struggle for acceptance here.
And something else that caught my eye was about state sponsored Gender related surgeries in Tamil Nadu. [Link] I believe the TN govt has also budgeted for group housing Trans folks. With the affirmation action in schools and the recognition of the third Gender in state issued ID cards, this is very progressive.
If I may correct you, so-called gay marriages are not valid even in Nepal. The SC has asked the legislature to enact same-sex marriage laws, but the country doesn’t even have a new constitution yet! So the certificate issued by BDS for US$200 is just a piece of paper with no validity.
If you still want to have a marriage and can afford to as well, why not do this in India itself and give the money to an Indian LGB or T trust?
Thats great and all. But I dont get the ghooghat. No seriously I dont…
