The word is packed with people who love poking their noses
in others business. The impatience within leads them to jump on to conclusions,
being judgmental and labelling a person. Be good, nasty or naive, the ones who
want to gossip, will gossip and pass remarks. But it is then up to you to
decide what needs to be overlooked.
Lately, while speaking to us, VJ Andy explained on how he
has always been wrongly tagged as a gay or for that matter even a
bitch! "I had always been tagged as a gay, homosexual and that
has a lot of connotations in one's life. This has been happening since I
was a child. But I was lucky enough to have great parents. They never told me
to behave in a particular way. I was lucky enough to have always got
backing from them. I was allowed to have girlfriends, boyfriends and without
any issues. That is something that needs to be worked on in the Indian
community. Not just homosexuality, but the freedom to choose what to do in
life, personal or professional. I have said NO to a lot of work,
because they would just ask me to play the role of a gay and that in
itself is putting a tag on someone."
He further told, "I was always tagged as the mean
guy. But I call it affectionately mocking which is
completely different from being bitchy. If I am telling it to you on your
face, that doesn't make me a bitch. If I am gossiping about you behind
your back, then I am a bitch. There's a difference."
