If Mice Were Aunts

What will you call your aunt if she is a mouse?

Mousie?

PS. Knowledge - How to Tell if a Mouse Is Male or Female?

PPS. More Knowledge - Shabnam Mousi
Shabnam Mousi is a campy, action-packed Bollywood film about a kickass Indian hijra who, after being falsely accused of her adoptive mother's murder, goes on the run. Saving young girls and battling slimy villains, she uses song, dance, martial arts and a sly wit to fight her way to the top...of Parliament! Did we mention this is an actual person? Shabnam Mousi, now well-known in her country, was the first hijra to run for political office in India. Here, her life and fight for self-determination are given a full Bollywood makeover, complete with hilarious fight scenes, singing assassins and melodramatic village dance numbers. While the story does stall occasionally, the film's madcap delivery and Shabnam Mousi's fierce rise to power will leave you cheering in the aisles.
PPPS. Kickass Indian Hijras. My foot! No, their feet. Suffering at their hands is suffering enough. Why their feet? Nah baba nah!
