Did you know gender change in ancient India was as simple as changing a dress! They did just by taking a dip in specific sarovar (pond) and it was common among the Hindu gods. If Hindu mythological stories are recalled then you may have come across Vishnu’s ‘Mohini’avatar, Narada’s transformation to woman and many more.
Though the present India considers ‘Homosexuality’ as a taboo and avoids it from discussion but this is how ancient India thought and behaved on gender change.
