One more person calling Shikhandi:
1. A masculine woman
2. Intersex
3. A trans woman
And I'll commit a hate crime I swear.
He was a trans man. He was just a dude. End of discussion.

PLEASE DO NOT MOCK OUR GODS.
PLEASE DO NOT DENY OUR HISTORY.
PLEASE DO NOT INTERPOLATE OUR VEDAS.
They are sacred to us.

Bigots think denying trans people the right to be in sports is a groundbreaking new idea.
Meanwhile 5000 years ago, the peeps in Mahabharat be like: SHIKHANDI CANT PLAY WITH US BECAUSE HE IS ACTUALLY A GIRL AND GIRLS DONT GO TO WAR WAAAHHHHH!
And then Shikhandi killed his enemy with the help of literal GOD and became a hero because the real villains all along were transphobia and misogyny.

Abhimanyu loved palash flowers. Uttara wore the same colour as them the next day of their marriage. His aunt Rukmini and Elder mother Draupadi teased him red for it.
