(NEW YORK POST) – An Indian bridal magazine has come under fire for “erasing women” after choosing a bearded “transfeminine” model for its digital cover issue.
Brides Today India featured Alok Vaid-Menon – a gender non-conforming author and activist – decked out in traditional Indian women’s wear: heavy makeup, various lehenga and saris and decadent jewelry.

Vaid-Menon uses they/them pronouns and goes by their first name. Alok told the magazine about spending their entire life as a victim of bullying for choosing to live as their authentic self and embracing a de-gendered style – which they described as a “no guidelines” form of storytelling.
