Short Abstract
:
The Queer history of India dates back to the ancient days, and is as archaic as the Vedas. Several manuscripts of Indian cultural past had explicitly presented the fluid category of sexuality and gender identities. Few popular scriptures that explained homosexuality and fluidity of sexuality include- The Narada-Smriti, The Sushruta-Samhita, and the Kama Sutra. Hence, my paper would to re-tell how Queer identity in India existed through the history and is not an ‘out-sided’ disease.
