Yeah, and shows like this trivialise trans lives and identities. It
contributes to the already widely held belief that it's okay for folks to
beat and kill trans people who don't reveal their birth-sex (usually as a
strategy to avoid beatings and murders.)

Excuse me if I find current media exploitation of 'gender trickery' to be in
incredibly bad taste. But then again, what reality TV could be classified as
good taste?

Nah, they're an accepted part of life - Jerry Springer has them on his show
all the time.

Well, lucky for me I have yet to accept Jerry Springer as part of my life.
Unless, of course, Maury Povich had Jerry Springer on his
show....then...maybe I'd buy it. ; )

Sounds like the foundation of a new postmodern religion. I can see
people on street corners, acosting passersby and asking, "Have you
accepted Jerry Springer into your life?"
