Offense is more taken that given. Even I am commented as "chakka" in this society. But I cannot take a particular word as offensive. You know, in Sikkim "chhakka" is just a common term for transgender, which is taken as offensive in Nepal. In India "hijra" is a common word, not exactly to transgenders but a particular group/organization of transgenders. I have refused to take these words as offensive anyway and how much a person may cry these words have stopped making difference to me.
Lets stop taking offence. I do agree with racism in Newar community. But if we stop taking offenses, offenders won't be successful to offend us in any ways.
