Let's Understand Queerness
Vložit

- Why do some people in India react with discomfort or even disgust to the LGBTQIA+ community? Why do we see a range of responses, from acceptance to denial, when it comes to understanding queerness? In this video essay, we venture into these questions, trying to decipher the complex layers of culture, psychology, and history that shape our reactions.
We dive into topics from our religious texts to the biological basis of our emotions, explore the societal norms around gender roles, and even look into the fascinating connection between creativity and queer identities. This exploration is not just informative but deeply personal. Please note, the video discusses some sensitive topics, and hence, viewer discretion is advised. Join us on this enlightening journey and contribute to this important conversation.

@@__shivam fair, although American evangelical/ conservative insistence to completely abstain from using them is always downplayed. Just remember the people who oppose there norms publicly don't even think trans people exist. But I get what you are saying and honestly I think it is because of this taking offense culture that radicalism against homosexuality and transgenderism has actually increased
@@__shivam Everything from the culture can't be replicated here anyways...we have different queer culture here. The society should first understand that.
The issue is mainly when someone's own family member come out as queer, that's when the family starts treating them differently.
Yaar aap log bahut saare youtubers ki videos ko comment karte ho.
@@__shivam Society will never change fully. But change happens slowly, one home at a time.
There are many parents who are supportive of their queer kids, because they love their kids regardless of that.
Some parents don't want to listen because they are homophobic and they will never learn about it. But one can only make efforts on educating and clearly India is only regressing, when it comes to many social/political issues.
No one in the yt community can come even close to what and how beautifully you do this. Your videos art ART and nothing less.

Yes... Every video I turn to 1.5x speed and listen.. but his videos, I can't. even if there's no time, I save them and watch joyfully later,when I find time..his videos are like feel good movies.. Definitely an Art..
@@Anuanu-uc5bq NGL I had the exact response to the video.The way he narrates the whole thing, connecting his audience to the depths of the story is phenomenal and he sounds soothing as well I could literally listen to him for hours
Idiotic video
Saddest thing is, the people who need to watch this video, they won't watch it. They will skip. But they won't know how this video is not just about queerness, or psychology but so so much more. India in pixels by Ashis is one of my most favourite yt channel. I hope you grow more.

I gotta pray 5 times, keep fast, pay my jakat, fulfill all my responsibilities and duties as a muslim and maybe then I will have time to care what other people is doing and think about what should be my action. Right now, I don't have to worry about that because, sir you are such a good soul and you are doing that work!
This video should be played in the supreme court so that they understand the actual reality and broad meaning of it rather than discussing the same thing and argument for thousand time..this is gold....
Law cares about logic and facts rather than emotions!
@@STARK50so what did you understand from video then cause he indeed showed existence of queerness in India
And laws first purpose is to provide justice not look at facts in a subject where what facts are you gonna show to prove being queer is wrong
To clear a confusion here.
Supreme court does not actually oppose the issue on the contrary they actually support it and want their rights to be upheld. But the problem is our judiciary doesn't actually have the power to do so the power to change law to accommodate queer rights rest in our parliament.
@@user-jb9ev8eg5k and unfortunately the current government and any other government are never gonna pass a law regarding this
Because the majority of their vote banks are homophobic
Supreme Court de-criminalized sec 377 , brought in by Brits , but it can only do as much, its the larger society which needs to change, okay the majority will accept then other sections tribals wont , you have to change the entire civil laws wrt inheritance, alimony etc etc , these are tip of iceberg , you cannot put society on steroids ,process is always from grassroot to power-centre, parliament can only make laws on consent of people. Extremely sketchy domain this
Arvey was from my school, its been almost a year since and this is the first time he's been portrayed in a good way, thank you for that.

Amongst all the hatred, this video should be watched by millions to educate themselves!
It's incredible to see how ancient wisdom and philosophy can still resonate with modern understanding.This revelation challenges common misconceptions and helps break down barriers and stereotypes surrounding gender and identity. It's empowering to know that such ideas have roots in Indian culture and that they continue to evolve over time.
Thank you for sharing this thought-provoking and informative video. It's an important reminder that acceptance and respect for the diverse expressions of gender and sexuality are not only modern concepts but have been contemplated and appreciated throughout history. Let's continue to celebrate and embrace the beautiful spectrum of human identity ❤️✨
I believe it's brain wash don't trust anything on CZcams, he just showed some Indian art style picture, he didn't validate it

My man went from EMOTIONS to various genders smoothly while presenting our Sanatan dharm was just so beautiful.
This video brought me to tears, especially Arvy' story. We Indians have forgotten where we come from and this is me included. The essence of our society is currently now one of hatred, jealousy and intolerance. We're a beautiful country but we lack the tools necessary to perceive how our diversity and stories are a gift and not something to fight with eachother about.
This makes me so incredibly sad but seeing people like Arvy' mom and multiple others who love art, create cause they must and arent afraid of judgement is inspiring and a breathe of fresh air.
too much acceptance is what got us colonized for 200 years, it's about to happen all over again.
Never have I ever imagined that such a comprehensive, thought-provoking, and understandable video could exist on this topic. This channel alone has the potential to educate Indians in the best way possible.
I've spent over 2 years making Queer and Desi content myself. I've spent the better half of my life knowing I'm queer and looking for good stories and conversations about the subject. This is truly one of the best videos I've ever seen. The thoroughness of your thought and explanations about both sides of the topic are wonderful. Thank you for making this video. It could have been 5 hours long and I would have kept watching.
why are you gay?
OMG WHAT HI

ariana what are you doing here 😭
In the stories of culture you could also add the story of a Mata in Gujrat, Mata Bahuchara the Goddess of Transgenders and Fertility , She is told to be the Goddess of all those people who are beyond masculine and feminine and she is worshipped across Gujrat a lot.
oh!? lived in Gujarat for a few years when I was younger but never knew of this. Would search it up!😅
Crying my eyes out right now. I am pansexual and when I came out to my mother two years ago, we had a massive argument and since then we both pretend that the conversation never happened. I try so hard to educate people about queerness but some people just.. do not want to listen to anything they don't already agree with. I am so glad you made this video. This is so well researched. It's sad that the people who actually need to watch this video will probably never watch it. They will scroll past it. But I hope and pray that someday that changes and people can live in more harmony and acknowledge and accept their differences.
That's the problem in current situation why do you need to explain...does woman explains that I am woman or man does? Then why do you need...if its natural it should blend..no explanation no justification required...if you feel like explaining then it's a pseudo situation...you should look into yourself first

When I was young,I always made fun of my friends by calling them gay now I am really ashamed of myself about it. I can imagine how LGBTQ peple suffer through out their life because people like me. I wish good life for every one.Thanks for this video. I wish india would be a much better place for not only LGBTQ people but also for everyone in future.
Kudos to you for realizing your mistake! Everyone is a bit immature when young
If only there were more people like you who....
Phenomenal! You dissected and dismantled queer-phobia in the most beautiful, empathetic way possible without demonising any section of society. This is a genius work of art. Up, up and beyond dear creator ❤
In a world full of ignorance, hate, insensitivity towards others, people like you have the heart to take the initiative towards understanding such issues and in a way, there have always been a selected few who keep the society running and help make it a better place for all.
P.s.- your research, storytelling and voice are marvels in themselves. 🙌

As a queer Tamil person, this video was just as info,national to me as anyone else!
I still remember back in my high school I got proposal from 2 boys. That time I knew jacksh*t about lgbt. I made fun of them infront of everyone, ngl I bullied them physically because the entire image of a male saying me that he loved me, disgusted me . Fast forward to my clg days, I got proposal from my classmate in my 2nd year. That time I was pretty much aware of the fact that these kind of people exist. I reacted calmly and told him I'm not interested in boys.He was cool with it and we still r good friends.
Now when I think about my past incident I feel ashamed on myself for abusing those 3 school friends of mine.I would love to talk to them personally and beg a pardon for being a jerk. Anik, Dev and otherone if u r reading this comment, I'm sorry man . Wishing you all the very best. Live your life as u wish.

This is today's India where people are forgetting their true SANATAN dharma . People bash Abrahamic religion but then ironically support them by following their rules. The Santan dharma that I follow accept everyone. The GoD that I follow is divine and eternal they won't neglect me because of who I am.
Aarvey's story really hurts when you think what he could have been if he was alive, he would have become an artist or musician. But because of bullying he died in depression. This is what homophobia and toxic masculinity does, it turns you into a monster who hates a boy just because he is good at art or music and not fighting or sports. When you bully someone and just say "its just a joke", its not a joke. A joke is supposed to make the reciver happy not depressed. A label is not just a label, its a sword, a sword that stabs you whenever you think or hear about it. Homophobia isn't a phobia, you are aren't scared of us, you are a monster who hates people for having totally normal emotions.
Dear Aarvy, This world didn't deserve your pureness or creativity it never will. You were not a coward you were a brave person broken down by evil. The world may not remember you, but I will
It couldn't have been said better.

welllllll, I do not want to say something that can make someone angry as this is a very sensitive issue but in my opinion, toxic masculinity is nothing, there is a reason for everything to exist, and masculine behaviour also has reasons to exist, like Ashris said, masculine behaviour is needed to take risks and to maintain order/discipline. so please advise everyone not to use harsh words such as "Monster". I know there is a perfect reason for you to be angry and it is fine but it would be better if we keep our heads cool. Thank You.
@@raghavawasthi9593masculinity in and of itself isn't toxic. Women love feminine things and that isnt labelled as toxic feminity. But being so overtly scared to trying smth different simply cuz you are scared of losing your masculinity/femininity is toxic. Not wanting to do smth isn't bad, just shaming someone for trying it is. If you are so scared of a small thing destroying your strong 'masculien' Outlook, you probably aren't it lol

One recommendation: I understand the intent of putting those pictures at the beginning; however, note that some people have certain phobias, which could get triggered by those pictures.
This video is worth billions, this is the mindset we need for India's audience. Thanks for sharing such beautiful thoughts with us.❣️
I think what we should do as a society is what you have done through this video. De-politicize the conversation. I am sure most of the people, in our society at least , form opinion of these things based on the political associations of the subject itself. It has been reduced to activism unfortunately and has been hijacked by political parties on either side of the aisles around the world. Good job Ashrish.

Hey!
You made me cry. A lot. Being queer is an everyday struggle. Everyday that I choose to be myself and digress from the set norms, I stand on thin ice, not knowing what hysterical amount of backlash I’ll face. I’m happy that you’ve given space to this conversation. Simply because of my gender identity, my worth is trumped upon and it’s heartbreaking to an extent where sometimes I reach a threshold. And yet I stand, because maybe, just maybe someone out there sees me embracing myself and wills to do too.
Thank you ❤

Disgust is a crucial emotion for understanding human behavior.
- Disgust is more important than joy or sadness as it influences behavior and choices.
- Disgust, particularly distaste, is essential for disease avoidance and survival.
Fear and disgust are survival-based emotions with key differences.
- Researcher Robert Plutchik theorizes emotions can be placed on a wheel, with intensity decreasing radially, and related emotions placed side by side.
- Fear and disgust are placed at different sides of the emotional distribution, with fear's opposite being anger and disgust's opposite being trust. Additionally, fear originates in the amygdala, while disgust originates in the insula.
Comparison of reptilian and mammalian brains
- Insula is part of the mammalian brain and handles emotions in mammals
- Carl Jung's concept of anima and animus in the unconscious mind
Understanding the blend of masculinity and femininity in different cultures
- Tagore intricately portrayed feminine characters like Chitrangada to explore love beyond physical dimensions.
- Cultures with strict gender norms could view blending masculinity and feminity differently based on their environmental influences.
Queerness challenges societal norms and fosters creativity
- Cultures with tight gender overlap have looser attitudes
- Homosexuality may naturally increase in population to control birth rates
Queerness is like the cherry and cockroach analogy.
- The analogy highlights how we perceive parts or the whole of an individual as impure.
- The story of Rishi Bhringi illustrates the concept of duality and inclusion in queer identity.
Rishi Bhringi's curse and Iravan's sacrifice for victory
- Bhringi's blindness and transformation into a rat trying to separate Shakti from Shiva.
- Ardhanareshwar's anger and curse on Rishi Bhringi, leading to dissolution of the feminine origin.
Celebration of Queer Identities at Koovagam Festival
- Annual gathering in Koovagam, TN for 18 days
- Highlighting issues of discrimination and abuse faced by queer individuals like Aarvey Malhotra

How you practice your religion is more important than what's in it (applies to all of them. We all know about casteism and its origin). Religious enquiry is much needed. Queerness is now more well received in west. All indians should watch this video

How do you have sex? Like tum dete ho yah lete ho?
CORRECTION: The male gamete does not contain both the chromosomes! It contain only one which is either X or Y. The egg contains the other gamete which is always X.
So when both the gametes combine : X from the female + (X or Y) from the male, we get either XX or XY. This is how babies have characteristics of its mother as well, both male and female contribute equally to the kid's genetics. It is just that the male's gamete decides whether it's a boy or a girl.

2) transgender (Male with penis that identifies as women) children in democrat States in America go through gender affirmation surgery responsible for chopping of genitalia and breast
3) these children recieve hormones of opposite gender leding to hair loss in female and serious depression in males
4) children are given drugs that are given to convicted child abusers
5) irreversible chances are made through puberty blockers which led to mid life crisis and lifetime regret.

Dhanyavad
I loved the video. This channel inspired me in spades. I sadly was and still am kind of apathetic to the plight that queer people go through in our communities.
I remember making fun of the slightly effeminate kids in school, I wouldn't bully... just sarcastic insensitive comments. I have since grown up and treat every queer person I meet with respect, but I still snigger at homophobic jokes in straight company.
I realise the harm that weaves into our psyche. I will try to be better.
Thank You. This video has been a delight and enlightening. ❤️
Previously I used to think that all this was a mental disorder. But truly from what you've shown, I've realised that these are very sensetive things which are not bad but I think what is personal should be kept personal. One should neither hate these things nor be so supportive that it triggers disgust in others. It'll take time for the society to normalise queerness but I hope people will look at it from a normal point of view.
And please share this video as much as possible to let the ignorant come out of the cloud of disgust. Peace
It must be shown to the lawmakers of this country.
Great efforts by Ashris.
It makes me more respectful for this community....❤

This is the same thing 🕉️sanatan scripture 🕉️ say about Lesbian & gay. Our sanatan supports these things not oppose .
Example: Sun temple, konark temple , kamasutra etc
In hinduism many characters were gay & lesbian& transgender by birth & by choice.
Example : Shikandi
Even God Ayanappa was born from a transgender avatar of vishnu & Bhadra avatar of Lord Shiva to kill Rakshasi Mahishi. He is famously worshipped in south region of india.
Usually same sex people used to have Gandharav Vivah ( kind of love marriage ) . In hinduism , Two Gandharavs ( male ) had famous love story & had Gandharav Vivah . their name was Mitra & Varun.

These things were normal in india in pre ISLAMIC era ☪️
Lmao...don't drag religion into this....and for your kind info...no every ancient book is religious...kamasutra is not religious....you want to follow religion when it suits you?...manusmriti is main religious text...you want to impliment it?....don't drag religion into your madness...
@@hajimeisayama9842 true why not implementing manusmiriti 😊 it is a really good book unlike sharia law( a girl can be married even if she is just 2 days old ) here women marriage is decided by women herself & average age of marriage is 18- 19 yrs for girl & 25 yrs for boy. Manusmiriti does not divide people by their birth cast but rather on their karm or profession.
If u have questions about manusmiriti u can watch following channels with reference they will show u manusmiriti.
1. Sanatan Samiksha
2. Heated debates.
Kamasutra is sanatan religious text.but sanatan has no MAIN religious text neither kamasutra nor manusmiriti . & manusmiriti is not our main religious text , it is not even given 10% of preference bcoz we have 18 more smritis & manusmiriti is one of them.
If we want implement any smriti , we would go through every sanatan smriti not just manusmiriti
And unlike islamic sharia which says to behead gay & lesbians. Sanatan supports 🕉️ them & accept their love.
and about dragging religion, Santana is not religion but Dharma 🕉️ . And Sanatan is history of this land , why people like u who r blinded by their abrahmic madness ideology is denying it ?? Idk the reason of your jealousy when your ancestors were themselves hindu ??
This land called bharat is land of hindus. Our civilization was richest when It was filled with hindu ideology unlike abrahmic ones where kafirs r considered to be s*x slaves.
Learn about Abrahmic ideologies islam by following channel

You are an idiot. Shikhandi was not a Transgender but a Male Avatar of Amba. Kamasutra is not a Dharmashastra so it has no bearing on Hinduism. Lord Ayappa is Male Brahmachari. Lord Vishnu takes a Female avatar nd Shiva takes a Male Avatar for birth of Lord Ayyappa. Aur Gandharva Vivah is not vivah of lesbians nd gays. It is a marriage that is done in secret which is based purely on love nd only permitted for Kshatriyas nd other Varnas.
@@hajimeisayama9842yes
@@hajimeisayama9842 you must be 60iq to say manusmriti to be the religious book 😂
This is true example of presenting facts with empathy...
Thank you
The way u deliver your thoughts ... omg I felt so emotional and cried soo many times and felt goosebumps ... u are a great storyteller seriously
Aarvey's story was so heart-wrenching. Imagine the number of beautiful souls we have lost because of the denial of acceptance by the society. I hope the future is bright for our LGBTQ+ friends.
I saw the title and freaked thinking you would end the channel. You are doing good doing whatever you want to do. I like watching a creative person like you. Congratulations on your 10th anniversary!!
Just wow! The way you stress on the important points and give the context of it and the explanation of it beforehand in the video in a simple yet interesting way to connect all of your points to make a single picture in the end for your viewers to understand is just amazing. Never seen such a complex topic explained in such an amazing manner! ✨
Watching this video ..I cried a lot ..broke down multiple time ....as a bi girl myself .. everyday I see random stangers hating me on social media..for what, just simply existing...its very heartbreaking the hate I get..they mock me saying many homophobic slurs... I'm having suicidal thoughts bcuz of this hat....but this video it comforted me a lot ... thankyou so bhaiya ❤️
No one should feel like that just for existing, much love and best wishes to you!
@@srabontibandyopadhyay5052 thankyou so much 💗🥺❤️
This comment is for my friend Ava, musician, writer, dancer, artist, friend, daughter, pet parent, transgender rights advocate. She passed away in 2022, after doctors ignored her claims of sharp pain in her stomach.
This comment is for my friend, Sourin. Artist, engineer, theatre artist, footballer, son, friend, brother, husband. He killed himself after he was raped "to find out if he's truly male".
I've lost so many queer loved ones to violence, bullying and medical indifference. Most queer people live only up to mid 40s. We are at war constantly for our survival, ever since school if not birth. Who do we listen to? Our bodies and minds that tells us that our happiness lies in our identities or the people who'd rather we be miserable so they're happy? Unfortunately for so many these people are our parents, our siblings, our families. We grow up in neglect and unloved. Still we try to show the world we just want to live in peace with our art and our ideas. We give the love we never received. My community sustained me through facing transphobia at work every day to the point I was attempting every day. My community picks the pieces of society's failures every day.
Rest in peace Ava and Sourin. They both must be in heaven looking over you.
How much effort do you want to put in a video?
Ashris: Yes
The resplendent magnificence of this video is truly awe-inspiring. The LG logo on the thumbnail hints at the common ridicule for LGBT people as LGTV has become a taunting euphemism for LGBT community. The tapestry of AI-generated imagery, harmoniously interwoven with the mellifluous strains of Sounds of Isha's ethereal composition, "Bloom," bestows upon the video an aura of sheer masterfulness. Through its artful portrayal it deftly encapsulates the depths of our Indian culture allowing individuals to discern the inclusiveness that resides within our collective consciousness.

I didn't know this music was an Isha composition, but the ambience in the video is melodious and really helps stay tuned in. An important observation! :)
Bahut difficult English h bhai!
True. Too many 5th graders think they are the first ones to come up with a similar acronym lol.
MAAAAN THIS VIDEO OMG! you are absolutely amazing!!!!! I didn't know how much I needed to watch this video! All of the information, the modern perspective, the ancient Hindu perspective, the current scenario, everything has been described and explained sooooooo neatly and beautifully.... A truly well researched video!!!! Keep doing the work that you are doing! IT IS FABULOUS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This was the best video I've seen on this topic. I'm not finding words to describe how beautifully u explained this whole topic. I wish this video reaches the lawmakers, government and supreme court. And to all the citizens so that they can truly know and comprehend this topic. They say Same-sex marriage is against our culture, without really knowing what our culture is all about. It's about loving each other. But everyone is busy spreading hatred. This video deserves trillion views. Thanks again for making a video on this topic. I'm new to ur channel and this is the first video of yours that I've seen. Needless to say, u just earned another subscriber! Kudos! ❤
You're a genius. This is such a nuanced look at the topic without getting lost in the weeds of ethics and judgement. Not an easy feat. Shows a truly truly logical mind.
Such an amazing take on this topic. I've been learning about this topic for a while since I started questioning my sexuality some 7/8 years ago and till date I think this is the best video essay in the Indian context.
The last section actually had me in tears.
Itne complex topic ko itni simple way mein explain krna... Just wow 😳😳 The way you started by describing the disgust to understand people what is disgusting...
I truly loved your videos 😍😍 I hop I get to see more this videos...

Ashris man, hats off to you. This is the best video I have watched till now about queerness. The way you explained the emotional, biological, social, sexual, cultural aspects towards this topic is incredible. You literally brought tears to eyes by telling arvey story. Thanks for putting so much efforts in this video. You nailed it...
I rarely comment on a CZcams video but this content, its deepness , the research, the explanation ,the curiosity it made me go through and apart from all the knowledge it delivered me , I couldn't hold back myself from thanking you for such a masterpiece. Also , I experienced a genuine and true emotional breakdown and sympathy for Arvey. May his soul find solace .
Ashris, i just wanna say, this vdo was so so beautiful and so well researched, i swear to god i could even listen to you for hours and hours, about your opinions on different topics going on in society, about anything, cause the way you speak is so well, and it just touches my heart, The way you explained all the concepts with such depth and such sincerity with such great articulation, truly and inspiration and someone i look up to❤
You made my day, Ashris. you made this video with so much love, and sensitivity. Kudos to you for giving hope and courage to millions of our brothers and sisters.
we flourish with our diversity.
I clicked without giving a second thought for a 35 minutes long video. See how much I trust in your story telling art. Yaar in last i shed tears. It wrenched my heart.
110/10 ❤
Aww he liked my comment ✧◝(⁰▿⁰)◜✧
This video is so touching, much respect to the content creators excellent job. Also remember the shloka in the rig Veda which says “everything that seems to be unnatural is also natural; everything stems from Prakriti”
And let’s not forget, how we all sung with Lata didi for Anarkali (Madhubala) PYAAR KIYA KOI CHORI NAHI KI, PYAAR KIYA TOH DARNA KYA
You are on my top 5 favorite Indian youtube channels. Your work is just phenomenal, the amount of research you do, and the level of work you put into making your videos are just remarkable. Strangely, I have the same point of view on the topics that you make videos. Maybe that's why the youtube algorithm guided me toward your channel 1 year ago.
God bless you, brother.
I was an admirer of this channel before. Now, after watching this video with ultra pro max concentration and interest, I've become a devotee. Truly, this video deserves a lot more attention and you deserve a PhD for all the research. Thanks💜
I am so glad that you made this video it is so important to have this kind of conversation because there is a lot of politics and manipulation on this.
Never thought that a subject like Queereness can also be analysed and explained in such a profound way. Thanks for such an insight ful video!
In my whole life , I've never felt so understood or heard by anybody who does these kind of vedios . I usually laugh in these vedios and move on with my day . For the first time , I cried while listening to your emotions about that poor boy who died such a tragic death and in such a young age .
My point is , I hope you understand how much an blessing you yourself are to many people including me , I'm happy that I found your channel and I would love to include I absolutely love your voice , it's so calm and sothing . That's all . And may god bless you
Thank you for discussing this complex subject with such nuance and empathy. I appreciated how you weaved in the rich tapestry of culture and the human condition.
Not just a "video"... An entire reasearch paper presented to us in his own unique form... Can't hold my tears at the end ...❣️
This video deserves much more views and appreciation. Kudos to your work. Really great, full of knowledge, unbiased and apolitical
Ony Seeken Jigyasa and You are the CZcamsrs Who tap into those topics people have Heard and probably are curious about never get the time to research....most beautiful thing about you both is that you make the topic like a story with exact categories and even with additional info. and Last but not the least a purpose to leave us wiser at the end of the video..... Thanks Brother I will always remember your name ♥️
It was so beautifully potrayed that I couldn't hold back commenting.
The stories were beautifully wreathed with the topic and such fluid explaination with inclusion of differences is applaudable.
Kudos to that.
No matter how frequently or often you make videos but they are done with so much precision, care and research that it is really a blessing to be a viewer.
Thank you for making us more informed, aware and acceptable to embrace the great diversity that we inherit.
The best thing that could have happened in the Pride month is this video ❤

Thank you so much for this video! In an age where we have so much polarization on issues like these, content like this is a breath of fresh air.
This video was extremely relatable and you did a very good job of explaining queerness to people like me who do not necessarily understand the whole concept properly. This is certainly a step in the right direction.
Keep up the good work and thank you again for the positivity!!!
Wow. No one has ever explained this so beautifully. Feeling proud to be a bengali and the cultural heritage we carry with us. This video itself deserves a subscription.
Your videos should be featured in classrooms and students should have been provided with your videos. These are greatly researched, flawlessly structured and aptly emotional. Great. ❤
This video is what we all need! The research, the articulation, the religious references makes it immaculate. Thank You, Thank you so much for making a video like this! Truly commendable❤
Im a simple man, I see IIP, I click. Always giving us great content 👏
Me too
Thank you Ashris for making me feel so many emotions in just one video from goosebumps to tears in the end, but still I just want to thank you for creating this beautiful piece of art , yes that's what it is, pure art, you are the only person who don't make video it's just art, not even exaggerating, truly believe In it.

You are my dude a gem. It's not very often that a CZcams video has impacted me this much. Your research and effort behind this video is implacable. It's good to know, there are people like you in my country who are speaking and discussing these topics. I am proud of you bro
Keep moving forward. 😊
The way you found a way to educate people on the diversity of our cultured and it's people was beautiful. How you tried to make this sound comprehensive yet easy enough to resonate with people was not an easy thing to do. This is probably one of the best thing I've seen on this platform
This video needs to be shown in schools
