"Agency is also a major issue in the ongoing debate within government and policymaking circles as well as among scholars about the legalization, decriminalization, and criminalization of sex work. Supporters of criminalization (of sex workers or clients) tend to undervalue the issue of agency and portray sex workers as victims. Supporters of decriminalization or legalization tend to stress the value of the choice of those involved"—Euchner & Knill (Citation2015). >

It's no secret that many trans women are talented and attractive. It's a shame that most men hide their feelings, and even their companion, because they worry about what others might think if they date or are intimate with a trans woman.

Good article on how stigma is the "glue that holds poverty in place” and how the government has exploited social stigma, a British phenomenon not echoed in other European countries.

A heartwrenching coverage of a rare neurodegenrative disorder called spinocerebellar ataxia (SCA) that runs in families in various parts of India that practice endogamy.
The apathy, the stigma, the need and lack of funds for basic research, the lack of funds for clinical support etc., etc., are all documented.
"The Indian government spends less than 1 percent of its Gross Domestic Product on scientific research. (China, in comparison, spends 2.2 percent, and Japan 3.4 percent.) In this year’s budget, the government has slashed funds for science by about 4 percent from last year. "
"Basic’ research, important for understanding the working of diseases at the cellular level, gets the short shrift in this approach. From data accessed under the Right To Information Act, I learnt that of the ₹32 crore received by the IGIB from the Council of Scientific and Industrial Research between 2015 and 2021, only 2.5 per cent (₹80.5 lakh) was deployed for targeted basic research."
(32 crores is roughly 4 million $ and 80.5 lakh is 100K$ currently. That's it, and that's over 7 years and nation wide!)
