DECOLONIAL QUEER HISTORY SERIES

Hijras are the third gender of South Asia. Some hijras might identify as women, but others would also identify as neither male or female, or as “in-between”.

Hijras have been part of South Asia’s culture for thousands of years. They were celebrated in sacred Hindu texts, including the Mahabharata, and they enjoyed influential positions in the courts of the Mughal empire.

The current climate of discrimination and ostracism they suffer is a direct consequence of colonialism. When Britain colonized India a lot of laws were passed criminalizing sexual diversity and non-binary genders expressions, including Hijras, who created their own communities and their own secret code language for protection.

Since 2014 legislations to recognized a separate third gender category on official documents have been passed in India, Nepal, Pakistan, and Bangladesh.

Photographer Dayanita Singh wrote about her friendship with an Indian hijra where she reported, “When I once asked her if she would like to go to Singapore for a sex change operation, she told me, ‘You really do not understand. I am the third sex, not a man trying to be a woman. It is your society’s problem that you only recognise two sexes.'”

DISCLAIMER: Terms under the LGBTQ+ umbrella are Western terms. A lot of these communities might not or would not have felt identified with such terms. Due to colonialism, imperialism, and aggressive religious expansions a lot of these communities' history was destroyed, however they managed to survive to this day one way or another, and they are part of the global queer community and history.

— ocs (+ships) as tarot card pairs

tagged by @corvosattano @unholymilf @jackiesarch @anonymousmalkavian @adelaidedrubman @deputyash and @leviiackrman to take this uquiz! thank you all!!

the tower + the lovers

meeting this person shook your whole world. crumbling down is everything you thought you knew about life and love. their warmth, their generosity, their naivete, their knowing...! you don't know how anything made sense before them. all you know is that nothing will make sense afterwards. deck: the tarot of the divine by yoshi yoshitani.

the two of cups + the star

your romance is a wish granted. finally, finally, they're here. finally, *it's* here! the time where you don't have to feel lonely anymore - you'll never feel that way ever again. laughter, joy, sweetness, kisses - be at ease. all of these are things you have found someone to share with. your love is a dreamy fantasy of love and devotion and miracles. at first, your chest gets too tight when they're around - until they become as natural as the air in your lungs. deck: ethereal visions tarot.

ace of cups + ten of cups

your romance is the love story that seems only possible in movies. it starts from a youthful first meeting, innocent. and from what may seem like a lifetime later, you both end up happily in union, perhaps even married! your coupling is the epitome of emotional fulfillment and devotion. neither of you thought you'd end up here, but damn if you aren't glad you did. deck: thelema tarot.
