À propos de ce contenu audio
I thought I would lose parts of my religion & culture when I came out. Having not seen any Queer Brown relationships modelled before me in real life or even in media, I felt as though the two could not co-exist. It didn’t help that when I would tell people I was dating a girl, they would respond with; “but you’re Indian?”, further affirming that I couldn’t possibly be Queer & Desi.
As I’ve grown and matured in my own sexuality and religion, I’ve learned that no one can dictate your relationship to & between the two.
In today’ episode of “Log Kya Kahenge?”, Queer Muslim, Shazmeena, explains her experience balancing sexuality & faith. From understanding her sexuality, to coming out to her family, to receiving death threats from her own community & finally; nurturing her relationship with sexuality & religion.
