I am enthralled because for the last many years I have been thinking to publish a magazine on same lines, but frankly could not muster courage to translate dream into reality. You have done it. Congratulations. I have written some papers for the benifit of Pakistanis, yet to be published. Also engaged in, though occasionaly, in sex therapy and advice(can not find much time because of my official engagements).Would love to read material in Chay. By the way, you have(perhaps intentionally) omitted the most important Two Words initialing with "Chay". They are "Choot", a Sanskirit word, used frequently in Urdu,Punjabi & Hindi(of course verbally) for "cunt", and the second word is "Chola", a punjabi substitute for "clitoris". Both are the central "points" in sex. An excellent idea.

In fact, the example you have given about the expectation and at times requirement of domestic labourers to be asexual is spot on and a good point of entry into that discussion.

I'm basically interested in the parameters of desire: gender, class, religion, ethnicity. Who is allowed to legitimately feel and act on desire? One example I've noticed (glaringly) is how domestic labourers are expected, almost required, to be asexual and to have no sexual drive or desire.
