just a thought do you think they are putting this girl on there to get ratings and to laugh and ridicule at the trans community as usual ?

Coz something stinks here in my opinion

That's my fear too. At least it seems Tyra would never step down to Janice's level.

Am I the only one who finds Janice Dickinson hideous? Too many surgeries, gosh.

She looked like an asshole to me.

Wow. Either you had your eyes crossed or it really was one too many surgeries!

My God Marcella you are right and in my opinion Claudia was treated horribly. I wish she would have walked out of there before she allowed them to disguise her as a man and how condescending to shorten her name.

I've seen this Janice Dickinson before on TV and she is someone I don't want to meet.

PS: Tyra is cool and has a lot more class. This is a good thing.

PSS: A good percentage of the human brain is devoted to processing visual information and recognizing beauty is in our nature. To deny this, or throw in the penalty flag seems somewhat like an over-simplification to me. Who said life was fair?

I sure didn't.

I don't care too much for the modeling industry, but my girlfriend likes watching Top Model, so I'll get stuck watching it.

Well I'm happy to see Isis doing her thing. I'm friends with Allanah Starr and she is friends with producers of the ANTM Show. She saw the first two episodes and said Isis makes it through both elimninations. Her coming out doesn't happen unti lthey pick the top 12 girls for the house and one of the mean spirited girls leaves the house first. But the other girls are a mix of decent people and not so decent.
I've read boards and other forums on this occurance and it was so crazy to see what alot of people had to say. They called her a man and said it wasn't fair for a man to compete against women. They said they should make a transgendered show and keep it fair. Some said they don't want their kids watching.... It was the type of stuff to make you question her being on the show. It's a landmark all the same but there are so many crude things being said.
Janice Dickenson to me isn't that bad. I watch her show religiously because it's good entertainment. I was upset about how Claudia was portrayed but that's business. I do not think that Janice is transphobiac or a bitch to the trans community because she took a chance on Claudia. At the same time the reason why Claudia arrived at her agency was due to Tyra banks transsxual top model compeition so.... I don't know. Claudia is modelling and I'm happy for her. I just wish Janice's modeling agency could have done more for her.
Be sure to check out Nina Poon, she's in the new Elle (sept) and she's the new face for Kenneth Cole. She's a gorgeous Trans woman and I'm glad they featured her. She's also on the Kenneth Cole website.

Welcome back. Its been awhile since you posted. You hit the big 21 soon don't you? What has been happening with you lately? Still in Florida?

Hey Deena! I know it has been a while since I posted! Miss you gals! Sadly though no.... I don't turn 21 until next year lol! I only wish I was that old... As for myself I have been living life! My family is getting better. My parents are coming for a visit this holiday season. I've been going to school and pursuing my dreams. Hopefully I get on tv like Isis in the upcoming years lol who knows.... But yes I'm still in Florida working things out. I might be moving out to Miami to get my modelling career started. But thank you so much for say hey!
