QueerTWENTY | Anwesh Sahoo: Become the Role Model your Younger Self Needed

A brown-skinned Uriya boy can be really hot and sexy. He can also be the first Indian recipient of the prestigious Troy Perry Award and the youngest recipient of the Mr. Gay World India title. This is the story of Anwesh Kumar Sahoo, who instead of getting dragged by other people’s comments, chose to become his own reference point and today, inspires young queers to choose themselves as the ideal they’d want to look up to. In his #QueerTWENTY interview, engineer, visual designer, and the creative force behind the blog Effeminare, Anwesh shares his pragmatic journey and how he strives to redefine beauty standards and challenge societal norms through his work and advocacy. __________ 🌈 QueerTWENTY is egomonk's annual celebration of LGBTQ+ icons of Indian origin to inspire the next generation of queers. 🚀 Learn more at linktr.ee/egomo
