Tabulae Rasae I’d say that your daughter probably has better role models in confident women like Nicki and Cardi B who are comfortable being themselves rather than a judgemental person like you. Sexually expressive women aren’t a threat to your children.

Tabulae Rasae don’t you think it’s a bit of an insult to your daughter that you think she’d instantly start imitating the behaviour of “illiterate skanks” if she were to even listen to their music/watch them perform? Dunno how old your kid is but I highly, highly doubt women like Cardi and Nicki will rot her brain like you seem to think they will. I really hope that you would accept your daughter even if she did adopt the attitudes & aesthetics like that of Cardi or Nicki.

No clue how she was defensive. She was totally level-headed, charming, very relaxed and intelligent. Sometimes Mark asks or says some very dumb things, like telling her she passes very well. What an oblivious thing to say. She is okay to be very slightly taken aback by those kinds of questions, she didn't snap, at the end she's just smiling laughing to herself thinking how dumb this guy is, doesn't mean to be disrespectful, just very oblivious.

[@3volved]

@@HuckleberryHim You're terrible at reading people. The constant jittering, the looking around, the tenseness, the quick and short answers. None of that spells "very relaxed".

She has been hurt bad and she wears it with her confrontational additude. She said she is always ready to fight. She said she doesn't care what anybody says or thinks about her. That is so sad to me. It's OK to be sensitive,caring , and even vulnerable. All humans are at some level. The tough exterior obviously is coving up a strong and incredibly loving human being that will find her way in this world.

It is like a game /in Europe in kindergardens. the name of the game is ,,black-white-yes-no,,. So you have to ask each others BUT THERE ARE 4 WORDS CAN NOT BE USE, BLACK, WHITE, YES, NO. The person who asks have to ask a question what can be only answer white for example. like what color the snow was falling all nite. and if u use white you failed. So poor Mark can not use any word regarding transgender life, Rose's life because he fails. Craaaaazy

[@frankiphoenix8699]

As a transwoman I think she handled herself very well. It's easy for cis people to see her as defensive when in reality, she's just not taking shit from anyone. She still loves and respects people but she is not letting anyone make her feel inferior, and i was proud of her. Because some of his questions came off as mildly abrasive and classist imo.

[@thisisjeannie4723]

It's heartbreaking but understandable. We can still learn from Rose here ya'll ❤️ she's defensive because she's grown up in a society that actively seeks to make it harder for her to live her life as herself. I'm relieved that she is able to be strong. I imagine it's difficult to be open as a trans woman without feeling vulnerable, and while there are trans women that are able to be open and understanding I don't think we should have that expectation of them until we make this place better for them to live in.

[@lemonythicket1406]

@@DClean I’m hesitant to draw conclusions about his character, but I absolutely agree that there are plenty of off-putting elements to his approach. At the very least, there have been many many times where he’s done things that display a sort of savior complex (such as the time he gave thousands of dollars to a prostitute to get her on her feet, which she promptly gave to her pimp), and he doesn’t seem to be well trained in dealing with a lot of these sensitive subjects. At first, I loved these interviews, but the more that I watch them the more they feel voyeuristic, like a sort of trauma porn. There’s a lot of value that I still see in them, but I have mixed feelings.
