the host was a little bit uninformed on trans issues.. using words like "transgenders" and "transgender lifestyle".. this is why more education and awareness of trans issues is important, so people understand who we are.. that this is not a "lifestyle", it's who we are as people.

Because it's all nothing but a horror pageant show. Fraudulent to the core, and the core is borderline rotten.

The host looks like a deceiving transformer as well, MTF transformer... don't let him fool you either.. IMO

I worked at a job with one of these folks (in this interview) for a little over 18 months (ending October of 2021) and I'm just recently realizing that Dave Chappelle hit the nail on the head when he parallels meeting Jim Carrey method acting the Andy Kaufman persona during a film being shot, and Chappelle isn't sure how to properly act or interact when he's around Jim/Andy - especially since he was initially excited to just meet Jim Carrey. They'll bulldoze you out of a job in the most narcissistic way imaginable to make themselves look heroic, take advantage of your compassion and empathy, all done under the ruse of being a strong "woman," when nothing - the mentality, mannerisms, general behavior and treatment of others - can possibly be misconstrued as feminine, caring or compassionate except from a distance...up close it's brute force. And they get away with the lying, bullying and deceit in general because everyone's so politically sensitive these days and people aren't allowed to say anything or do anything that'll be of negative consequence to him/ her/they/it/them for fear of losing their livelihoods. It really is a fucked up injustice to those who try to maintain on a level playing field, and I usually take my licks and move on, but everything that happened a few years ago is just starting to register (2 years after losing my livelihood, going through therapy twice a week and being knocked out of the career I was in for 21 straight years). I'd rather befriend Mr. Hyde, myself. But I have a story to tell about this, much too long for a post here. It's true and I have hardcopy proof of every bit of it. Karma is a bitch. The sham is over. And fuck the Buffalo Bills, too.
