Wow, that was the first time I saw gay Nepalis, even in the web. I had never seen one while I was in Nepal. Those transvestites are indeed quite brave to have come out in open like that, despite people laughing and heckling them all around. I had the impression that gay men are bunch of pansy boys, squeeling and being silly. I guess there is much to learn for us heteros about those playing on the other side of the field. Sitara, forgive me for being stupid, but when you said "they usually walk the streets at night", did you mean they are prostitutes or they just walk at night, taking refuge of darkness, thereby dodging the society's wrath? I guess these days police harass anyone who walks at night in the name of keeping us safe from Mao-badi. I am sure they get more rowdy when they see a woman walking around. And then even more so when they find the woman is actually a man.
