The Journal aims to attract and engage a broad range of audience from diverse fields across the globe, with special focus on India and South Asia.

Culture gives an identity to people. With time, culture is evolving and as a result, human behavior and belief is also evolving. Sexuality is largely influenced by the culture. Evidences suggest cross-cultural variations in perception and expression of sexuality. It has been seen that certain syndromes are strongly linked to specific cultures, hence known as culture-bound syndromes. Holistic understanding of sexuality needs in-depth understanding about the culture. Clinicians dealing with issues related to sexuality need to be aware of the cultural connections associated with particular sexual behavior.
This issue intends to present a comprehensive coverage on the topic of sexual health in context of various cultures. The articles are expected to cover cultural beliefs related to sexuality and various cultural influences that affect the sexual behavior.
The journal shall target audience from fields of mental health and allied branches, general medical disciplines (medicine, surgery, urology, endocrinology, dermatology and gynecology), arts & humanities (psychology, sociology, social psychology, history, economics) and others involved in field of sexual health.

The issue will synthesize the research on emerging adults' engagements with the society, and how society multilaterally influence, shape up, and hinder or help their identity development and formation, contribute to aggressive and prosocial behaviors, understand their sexuality, and benefit or harm their relationships with their parents, friends, and romantic partners. In places, where the published research on a topic is missing, research from the face to face context can be used to provide a starting point for understanding the same topics. We are now entering into 2017, when we are considering and reconsidering our possibilities, and ways of engaging with the world, wherein diversity is the core of life, and LGBTQI community are a more visible one. However, the goals of championing rights and equality are far from being a reality, although we have made major headways into policy making e.g. Indian Transgender Bill, 2016 to recognize rights of Transgender in India. However, we must solemnly recognize, that we have embarked on a journey, wherein the goals of true equality would not be realized, unless we move together, leaving no one behind. The present issue aims at infusing voices of people, from all walks of life, who will reflect on the present lives of LGBTQI community in the developing world. Objective This special issue aims to provide relevant theoretical frameworks and the latest empirical research findings in the areas of identity, sexuality, and relationships among LGBTQI community, and especially among Transgenders, and how they navigate their lives, in a rocky age of widespread hatred, and rampant human rights violations in LMICs, and most importantly in Indian context.
