[Lauren1981]

who watches??
i'm excited. i heard this was the last cycle.
BUT
have you guys heard about the transgender on there?? what do you think about it??
heres a pic:

I think Isis is fierce and it shouldn't matter that she is transgender, although it will. I'm excited to watch but I think I'll be glad if it's the last cycle.

i agree but i think it's gonna cause some controversy. wouldn't it be crazy if she went all the way to the end??

I love this show. I really hope it's not the last cycle.

I also think it's great that they are having a transgender on the show. Hopefully it will cause people to open up their minds a little bit and create more acceptance towards others.

My favorite part of the show is when they show the photos. Oh! And the makeover show. Those ones are always the best!

i feel the same as well. i really just want to know how ppl feel on the whole subject. on other forums some are all for it and others have been very much against it..... i think it will promote open-mindedness.

i think its great that there is a transgendered person on there.. if she has the talent than why not?? i know so many people who are transgendered and they are honestly the most beautiful people i know and are dedicated to being what a true woman means to them, and look better and perform better than most women i kno lol.. there is also a transgendered person on diddy's "i want to work for diddy" or vh1.. and she is fierce.. gender shouldnt be an issue.. as long as u have the passion thats all that should matter

When does this premiere?
I love watching ANTM, it's so fun and addicting (and makes me want to be a model!)

 

[knoxydoll]

I want to say september 3rd but I'm probably wrong.

If Isis has what it takes to be a model, then why should it matter whether or not she's transgendered? She's probably had to overcome alot personal strife and identity issues in her life, and she's just now coming out on the other side of the tunnel, so bravo to her.

If people had no idea about her biological gender prior to the start of the season, nobody would be questioning her suitability for modeling, but now because people know about it, all of a sudden there's a *problem*? People need to GTFOHWTBS and get some enlightenment.

Waaaa, last cycle really? I love ANTM ;...( Marc Jacobs used a male model in a dress recently for his Marc line, I think the fashion industry may be thinking that it's about time

Hope that this person is able to tell the other gals what's up!

I could imagine this sparking some controversy in the house but ANTM really doesn't strike me as a show that needs to open up people's minds and educates people on anything other than how to "smile with your eyes".

To me, it's like "so what?"
The fashion industry has much crazier and edgier things going on that a tranny won't even make them think twice (unless they're doing bikini/ lingerie shots)
And it's not like we're going to see her penis on TV, anyway.

It's just a gimmick but I'm glad they're having her on. Something "different" to add on to the show, I guess. :/

ANTM is fun to watch but most of it is BS None of the winners EVER go on to do anything great, and they just pick who they wan to win... first it was white, black, white, black; then they said oh we need a latina... Oh we need a +sized girl... Its a joke but I love then challenges... Im putting my money on Isis because they need someone "different" to win... GO ISIS lol

 

[clwkerric]

I love ANTM! I'm excited about Isis!! I read about her in our local paper we get daily at work.
I'm loving the fact that they are having a transgender on the show! I really like the transgender from "I want to work for Diddy" on VH1, Laverne. I think it's great that they are getting so diverse with people!! Wonderful!!!

I'm looking forward to this season.
I missed last season. For some reason I just couldn't get into it! THat was the ONLY season, out of 10 that didn't catch my attention!? Don't really know why though?

i was like that the season when saleisha won. it was just boring as hell to me. i kept forgetting it was even on. lol! i think when shows run for so long like that back to back at some point there's going to be a season where you're just like "whatever" about it........... i still freakin love the show though!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Assuming she's post op, she won't have a penis, she'd have a vagina xd

I watched ANTM for quite a few seasons, but I think I'm finally over it. Last season sucked, and actually, so did a few seasons before that. It's so trashy now. I much prefer Germany's Next Top Model.

I honestly think they just take the most extreme people they can find for ratings. None of them look remotely like top models. Pretty for maybe a Sears catalogue, yes, but not top model material. IMO.

ANTM is a show with female contestants and I think a MtF trans-person can be considered a "legal" woman without a vagina.
I'm assuming she's a pre-op because Tyra did a little ANTM on her talk show and all the ladies still had their "boy-goodies" tucked and taped back.
Transgender is a general term that includes anyone from cross-dressers to bigenders so she could still have a penis.

And where would the fun be if she had a vjj like the rest of the girls?

thus why I said assuming. I haven't seen or heard anything about this season up until now so I don't know anything about the contestants ^^
