Patna Catholic Church recognises Transgenders

It's a heartening development, and one that may raise eyebrows among 'conservative Christians', but in this years 'Mega-Youth Festival' being organised by the Youth Commission of Patna Archdiocese, the entry forms have THREE options: Male, Female or Transgender.

The Youth Convention  hopes to have about 100 Transgender delegates, according to the invitation.

The Convention is to have representation from High schools, Colleges, Youth groups, and also from the unorganised youth segment.

Now this is what I call real progress towards inclusion.
