Queer Sexuality- Mths Busted 4

(This post is a part of the series Queer Sexuality-Myths Busted. A small, not all inclusive research project i did in college. I am hereby presenting a few portions of that research work so that more and more people become aware of Queer Sexuality and start seeing it in positive light.)

The main focus of the research was understanding the popular  perceptions regarding queer sexuality prevalent in the society as well as the notions popular amongst the queer community regarding their origins, and to find out if there are any religious, mythological or social evidences that support both the theories.

This research aims at busting the myths related to the queer community and also making a clear image of this community, whatsoever. Also, i paid attention as to how has the media been portraying the two ideologies mostly through the movies and also through other television soap operas etc.

It should be mentioned that in a dynamic world, where nothing remains constant for long and in the period of globalization where a single theory is expected to be applicable to all, how far are we willing to go in the depths of the issue and not make conclusions from the crust itself.

The media, irrespective of the quality of the content, is showing matter and creating big debates over it. Is it responsible media behavior? Till date, hardly any media channel has come with a concrete view for queer identities. If we only leave a few movies made in Spanish and even fewer in English and other languages, no one really goes the distance to make it large for the queer gender.

The research will not discuss if we should come out or not. Its main aim is to show what all has been present there ever since in the society and why and age old concept of the world, is being slashed as a completely western concept, even when we know how much it has been prevalent in the east. We shall discuss over all the possible anecdotes dating back in history which talk about the queer gender and the various myths about them. Not only this, we would try to go deep in mythology and the contemporary world as well.
