This video is of Glady, a transgendered woman in India, who is currently enrolled at University of Madras. Glady has been going to graduate school for Mass Communications while working part time. Many transgendered women in India are pushed to the margins of society where they are not able to do any work other than begging or prostitution. Many are subject to violence and inhumane oppression. With no family support and a very hidden life, she struggles to be the first transgendered woman graduate from the University. I have been helping Glady garner financial support to make it through graduate school, and together we have raised over half of her school finances! Please help Glady in this final amount to one day become a journalist and ultimately a dignified human being.
UPDATE: Please help Glady in her final days by contributing towards the last $164 of her education. This is it... the last stretch. We can do this, let's make it happen!!

  • Well, this Male and Female identity really doesn't matter . What Really Matters is Human with Good Soul and Glady you have that and thats Awesome .If all the society treats them like normal gender then there would be no problem to transgenders.

  • Glady. I hope your dream come true. Be Happy. Show your feeling inside match with outside so you will be happy.
