[quote=Gaia][quote=Anonymous]How do you feel about Caitlyn Jenner? Kristen Beck? Do you think all this media attention is helpful or harmful? BTW, I think it's very brave to try and live your authentic life, even though it is so much more difficult.[/quote] I adore Laverne Cox. I think she's a wonderful spokesperson. I think that any kind of viability of transgender people is wonderful, but I think that the media only showcasing privileged people who have the resources to have surgery (including facial reconstruction and breast augmentation) can be harmful to the many trans people who will never be able to look as good, or dress as good, as these celebrities. Here's a great article that talks more about that: http://everydayfeminism.com/2015/06/trans-activists-need-to-remember-indp-of-jenner/[/quote]
