A Kerala college professor has given sanskari sermons which have left everyone baffled and anguished in the state. According to an India.com report, Dr Rajith Kumar, who is a teacher of a college in Kalady recently said that, " Women who wear jeans or act like men give birth to transgender kids.”

This was not the only unique lesson in biology given by the teacher. He followed it up by saying,  “When a woman degrades her womanhood, or a man degrades his manhood, the girl born to them will have the characteristics of a man. A child born to such a woman will be transgender,”

Dr Kumar made these controversial comments at a recent counselling event in Kasargod. Almost all of his 'reasoning' was about how not sticking to a certain lifestyle choices can lead to harmful diseases and serious consequences.  His insensitive comments weren't only confined to transgenders. He even had an explanation for autism. According to him, men and women who are 'rebel', give birth to autistic babies. 

Kumar's extreme and bigoted views have received strict censure from the Kerala government. According to reports, state Education Minister KK Shailaja have barred Kumar's presence from all official functions in the future. No agency can call him for taking part in any programme. NewsMinute quoted Education Minister as saying, "We are mulling legal action against him for making such derogatory comments". 

Kumar though has defended his comments and said that his words have been quoted selectively and the 'proofs' given by him have been edited out.
