Thanks chief, I can appreciate that, didn't mean it as a slight. It's just that as Koanbred stated, the Hijras are sort of accepted (at least amongst the Hindu population) in a spiritual context. Does that same acceptance translate in Sri Lanka, as far as believing they'll be cursed if they do wrong to a trans and such. If they are treated the same I'd assume so though.

I figured that might be what the situation is like.
