About the Author

“With regard to the nerve-degeneration theory, while it may be allowed that sexual inversion is not uncommonly found in connection with the specially nervous temperament, it must be remembered that its occasional association with nervous troubles or disease is quite another matter; since such troubles ought perhaps to be looked upon as the results rather than the causes of the inversion. It is difficult of course for outsiders not personally experienced in the matter to realise the great strain and tension of nerves under which those persons grow up from boyhood to manhood or from girl to womanhood - who find their deepest and strongest instincts under the ban of the society around them; who before they clearly understand the drift of their own natures discover that they are somehow cut off from the sympathy and understanding of those nearest to them; and who know that they can never give expression to their tenderest yearnings of affection without exposing themselves to the possible charge of actions stigmatised as odious crimes. That such a strain, acting on one who is perhaps already of a nervous temperament, should tend to cause nervous prostration or even mental disturbance is of course obvious; and if such disturbances are really found to be commoner among homogenic lovers than among ordinary folk we have in these social causes probably a sufficient explanation of the fact.” Carpenter, Edward. “The Intermediate Sex.” (Carpenter, Edward (1908). The Intermediate Sex a Study of Some Transitional Types of Men and Women. Allen & Unwin.)

" Are we to despair or rejoice over the fact that even the greatest loves exist only ‘for a time’? The time scales are elastic, contracting and expanding with the depth and magnitude of each love, but they are always finite — like books, like lives, like the universe itself. The triumph of love is in the courage and integrity with which we inhabit the transcendent transience that binds two people for the time it binds them, before letting go with equal courage and integrity." - Edward Carpenter, Philosopher, Poet, 1844-1929 ( Brainpickings.org . Povova, Maria. Love, Pain , and Growth: The Forgotten Philosopher, Poet and Pioneering LGBT Rights Activist Edward Carpenter on how to survive the agony of Falling in Love , https://www.brainpickings.org/2019/03/31/edwardcarpenter-love-marriage-in-free-society/) Introduction

The world has gone a long way since the humanity partakes its responsibilities on each avenue of an existence. Drawing much in the pivotal scenarios that intrigues a person’s senses and tasking to what life can offered on a behalf. Utopian socialist, philosopher, poet and essayist writer Edward Carpenter had been an influencer in his times where homosexuality is big issue to begin with. He was able to debunk biased notion on this issue that allay the fear since it is “just a phase” mere transition during his times, furthermore, it is the criminalization of such practices deepens the stigma and discrimination. The cycle goes on and on unendingly. Furtherance a reality that a LGBT life deemed doom if one ever lived where the virtual closeted lived for anyone belonging to LGBT sector of society though time passed things change gradually not abruptly in this scenario. The apparent stigma and discrimination prevailing even up to this Aegean age of humanity that many endeavors that advocacy gave rise to dispel the notion that it is mere understanding of shallow undertaking in lives of many truly affected by this movement and Pride is indeed a protest for which all human rights entitled for everyone especially the LGBTIQ+ be protected and safeguarded.

" ...The body is a root of the soul, as body in air so the soul sustains itself in love. The medium in when Knowledge of Yourself subsists is Equality..."

p. 41 Towards Democracy by Edward Carpenter

Concluding in the core of existence transforming lives Endangering in the lives for other â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;s welfare Other movement arising in the lives of many

PRIDE Taking into consideration what life beset for this marginalized minority People often taunt and ridicule the likes of others that considered outcasts People does not conform or belong to the status quo of society They are often laugh at and made fun of Simply there is certain pride within them To rise upon the issues at hand It is too basic as we are all human beings Telling the truth of life lingers in hearts of many Giving much to address the Pride to share what and who comprises as â&#x20AC;&#x153;usâ&#x20AC;?

PATH A Person choose a path out of the decision one may make It is careful discretion on every possibility midst impossibility Provoking or even lingering a track that lies ahead Pointing into the new deep direction in a lifetime Often it wonders deep in the core sided heart and mind What trail to consider in this journey of a life? Bridging the gaps never ceases to amaze such feats of our own humanity Selections are considered for betterment of oneself in everything life throws Be in the heart of encounter a path never ends in this lifetime

ADVOCACY The world always seen changing but the basic fundamental rights of every human being is always questioned or inquired upon where the power and greed stenches The ebony clears out in the open how one may deem the shortness and briefer lives of every human being or a person being trampled upon, reality often being evaded in its entirety at large growing into the life experience phenomenon The problem of every violated circumstance one stans for what is right and treating equally person who are trampled , exploited , and other ways of dealing with vague reality of humanity repressed and deprived of, being the voice out the non-voice person or can be putted as an advocates vouching for the good of others in name of sharing and adhering basic human rights of person who lived in the world and sharing the planet with all of us. Respect must be made in all aspect of humanity in its drive for the continual fluxity of world that always changing in any moment from time and space given to forge new ways of handling issues at hand leading grounded advocacy for otherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s plight Learning the ropes of the trade can linger in the heart of an advocate to share the world with passion of protecting the basic rights of every human being.

DISCRIMINATION

Treated fairly Poorly reacted Nonreactive elements Ignorance prevailing Stereotype casting Casting negligence Fluidity illiteracy Binary misconceptions or otherwise notion Clashing timely to say the least Moments not recovered Stigmatization concretizes Criminalization revered highly Unbound clashing as a nemesis Life too recovery for a sad genuineness Chaining the world to see the spectacle of others Always suppressed in world a living nightmare to others

DEBUNKING MYTHS

Society allows person to be with a person who and what are they able to part of humanity but never felt being part of the former seeing the heart and soul of an existence lingering and to be part of a human race felt never be part of it; it is another reality within a certain reality. However, the learned cultured any debunk reality facing a LGBT on these grounds It is a choice, destructive to children, a sin, marriage only between male and female, â&#x20AC;&#x153;anyone can get married if same marriage is allowedâ&#x20AC;?, a social concern to the society to curb and stigmatize LGBT people, making their lives so miserable; Life consider with heart of empathy and understanding in order to live accordingly with humane treatment and equal rights are guaranteed to the LGBT people.

LGBT RIGHTS ARE HUMAN RIGHTS Human rights are basic fundamental rights and dignity truly safeguarded for every human being and every State shall protect and serve the people whom she embraced. To put everything in a directive and every state any person who face its own shortcoming as well as put in the chain of oppression and repression of basic human rights; it will cross borders and nations among the guarding precepts how one may exist in this world. Life changing moment in lives of every LGBT person who are constantly vulnerable yet emulating the lives chosen with regards to affectionately shared to the world. Be fully human totally relating to same strata of society one may find fundamentally relatable to the whole experience of an existence to share the world to each other without curtailment or hindrance to any party concerned. It gives much meaning in the heart of LGBT to be inclusive and well defining moment in heart of existence. For finding the meaning of rights more particularly LGBT whom people are strongly persecuted in most of the time, it is a rigid purpose to see the world turning down walls rather than a great divide among people whom sharing a world this little planet Earth to share lives freely and humanly as possible.

ALL-ENCOMPASSING WORLD As I dream all-encompassing world that embraces anyone whoever and whatever be the background and experience in life without string attached or biased covered or even overt behavior ; the life changing in the elements of understanding the happenstance of every possibility in its impossibility toward the goal of undertaking in heart of encounter of what is humanity in its understand how lives are changing globally and locally even in the docile realm of lone and community at large. It is encompassing realization on its behalf of humankind. Humankind in its fundamental sound off the realization how one may live even though it is a far future to see the full realization of this happenstance of world we are living to what is accord to one another and depth of the experience how every humanity can surpass in this shortcoming still a chance to bring the world to be inclusive and well meant coexistence to each other.

NEW WORLD COMMAND

A command meant responsibility and entails role modeling and shifts in the gears of life where one may prevail how one may live humanly accordingly though springtime moment in any parts and parcel of an existence; it is a question how and why one may share out of own capacity and own limitation. The clear-cut know-how in its survival one is capable of any eventuality succeeded in all portion in dealing with realization of humanly existence for global landscape in localized experiential level as mere human person remaining Consuming realization arising midst the undertaking of its known appraisal up-to-date reality in dealing with anyone in marking the coexistence dealing with simple conversation without any biases and certain stereotype praxis still turning the tide of lead out involvement in every person we transacting with how and what and why always simply amplifying the coexistence essence in lifecycle of a person. Latent movements of human kind in its valued principles though curtail another personâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s plight and overcome everything in due process without repression or suppression or even group eventually reaching to a point of resolution and great resolve to the future garnering the lives where freedom and rights guarded and protected for all encompassing world to live by
