MUMBAI: Fashion designer Swapnil Shinde has come out as a transwoman and shared new photos with a statement on Instagram. Now named Saisha Shinde, penned a note on Instagram about 'not being a gay man but a transwoman' and revealed the new look. Several celebrities dropped praiseworthy and heart-warming comments on Saisha's post and new photos shared on Instagram page.
Shinde's statement read as "Irrespective of your origin, there will always be something that reminds you of your childhood. For me, it takes me back to the kind of loneliness that aches, to pressures that pushed me into solitude and the chaos of confusion that grew every moment.
All through school and college, while the boys outside tormented me because I was different, the internal pain was far worse. I felt suffocated living a reality that I knew wasn't mine, yet one that I had to stage every day because of societal expectations and norms. It was only in my early 20s at NIFT where I found the courage to accept my truth; I truly bloomed.
I spent the next few years believing that I was attracted to men because I was gay, but it was only six years ago that I finally accepted to myself, and today that I accept to you.
I'm not a gay man. I am a Transwoman."
