Abstract: This study investigates the beliefs and perspectives of first and second-generation Indian immigrants in America regarding the Hijra community. Hijras are a gender non-conforming community originating in South India. People's attitudes surrounding this group have constantly changed throughout history, but most importantly, they are still harassed and face abuse today. To analyze these views, the researcher made a survey for the Indian American population to respond to. Utilizing a survey method, distributed via Reddit and physical posters, the research aimed to gather detailed responses for nuanced analysis. Findings revealed nuanced perceptions of cultural connection, with first-generation immigrants expressing stronger ties to Indian culture, which reflected their more conservative beliefs when it comes to the Hijra community. The findings highlight differences between generational perspectives. Second-generation immigrants exhibited a more critical stance, reflecting broader societal trends in younger generations, while their first-generation counterparts are much more biased towards their own culture when it comes to inclusivity. Furthermore, the impact of British colonization on India's inclusivity towards transgender people was examined, finding that varying interpretations influenced by generational experiences separated the views of first and second-generation beliefs. Overall, the study contributes to understanding intergenerational dynamics and societal perceptions of gender diversity within immigrant communities, offering insights for further research and societal interventions.
