      The world keeps taunting him as girlish but the fact is that, biologically, he is a boy. And, he is always attracted to guys. Is Laxmi both a man and a woman? Or, perhaps, neither a man nor a woman? The first inklings and stirrings of lust that Laxmi remembers came from noticing big, strong arms, the hint of a guy s moustache over his lips, billboards that advertised men s underwear. Laxmi found this puzzling initially. Was there a woman inside him who couldn t really express herself because of some last-minute mix-up that god did at the time of his birth? Struggling with such existential questions, Laxmi Narayan Tripathi, eminent transgender activist, awakens to her true She is Laxmi, a hijra. In this fascinating narrative Laxmi unravels her heart to tell the stories of the men-- creators, preservers, lovers, benefactors, and abusers--in her life. Racy, unapologetic, dark and exceptionally honest, these stories open a window to a brave new world.
