I am Sunil S. Traditionally my family are Kshatriyas, trained to fight other men. I guess I’m the exception. I was married once, but it ended quickly and badly. How was I to tell my parents that I’m not attracted to girls?

My mother, of course, is trying to get me hitched again. (She’s like in serious denial, poor thing) All my siblings are shaadi shuda with millions of baccha kachas running around. I dread family gatherings, posing for portrait photographs and my nosey bhabhis asking me, ‘Still single?’”
