British transsexual leaves Indian eunuchs out of pocket (Independent (UK))
"Details of who exactly Pamela is are hard to come by, largely because she has been reluctant to talk to the press. Journalists reported that her birth name was Stephen Louis, and that she comes from London.
"'Some Gujaratis in London, noticing Stephen's eunuch-like body language and behaviour, helpfully told him about the Bahucharaji temple,' said Gunavant Joshi, a resident of the town where the temple is based.
"'Stephen then made a search on the internet on Goddess Bahucharaji, considered the goddess of eunuchs. He found all necessary information on the Net.
"'He even got a printout of the picture of the goddess and showed [it] to a tattoo artist and got a similar image tattooed on his left arm,' Mr Joshi said.
"'Pamela gets up early in the morning,' said the unnamed temple official. 'She attends all [ceremonies] in the temple. Also, she has become a pure vegetarian. She eats Gujarati food in the temple dinning hall.'"
