TYRA GOES TRANNY!!! The new run of America’s Next Top Model will reportedly feature “a guy, pretending to be a girl,” according to the story. Apart from Tyra Banks, who is NOT a tranny, according to spokespeople.
Good Day.
Also, extreme heat warnings today through the weekend. 100+ degrees. Time to go to the movies…
HEADLINE: Washington Post, Thursday, August 14, 2008. Secretary of State Condelisa (sp?) Rice Explains to President That It’s Not The Georgia Next To Alabama, Rather It’s The One Just South of Russia.
SUBHEAD: President Looks Bewildered, asks “there’s two Georgias?”
“a guy pretending to be a girl” that is offensive. if she idendifies herself as a women then she is a women..

i was just trying to point out that many people, especially in portland, respect the gender that a person identifies with. What is more offensive is your choice of links to this story, considering it was on just about every blog yesterday most of which were much more sensetive and even celebratory. A choice like this can create discourse on the subject which can sometimes be good, that being said your choice in links was purposly chosen to reach and offend the public and will no doubt create alot of comments. alot of comments equals alot of readers, thus raising your ad rates. In the process getting your name out to the public. you and tyra have alot in common.
I is a women.
So show us your tits.
Yay! Yang Wei, you are so cute!
I would think that the Mercury would have better taste than to link to an article about the transgirl on ANTM than that. The entire article (not to mention the comments section) is full of transphobic crap. Come on!
