Transgender Model to Run for Miss Universe.
http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/world-news/...nna-786205
Quote:The transgender beauty queen hopeful who was booted out of the Miss Universe contest has announced she WILL take up a new offer to compete.
Jenna Talackova - who describes herself as a "woman with a history" - has also revealed she has a long-term boyfriend and wants to have two children.
The blonde model told TV interviewers of her intention to compete in this year's Miss Universe Canada pageant and also talked about her personal life.
23-year-old Jenna told Good Morning America she did not immediately tell her boyfriend that she had been born male.
She said: "I have a partner of two and a half years. He's really great and supportive. We had to get to know each as friends first for a while and then of course I had to let him know.
"He was very supportive, very accepting. He's seen me for who I was." When asked about starting a family, she replied: "I want to have two children."

In an interview on ABC News, she revealed that she was called 'Walter' when she was born a boy and school bullies called her "tranny" and "it".
Jenna, who says she knew she was female "as soon as she was conscious", said she started hormone therapy at 14 and then four years ago underwent surgery to complete her sex change.
She told interviewer Barbara Walters: "It was terribly painful but seeing something on your body for that long and not even being able to look at myself in the mirror because I couldn't stand seeing the other part, it was very rewarding, too."
Jenna was devastated to be banned due to a rule that states contestants must be “naturally born” as a woman. She called in a top civil rights lawyer to fight her case and publicly criticised Donald Trump, owner of the Miss Universe pageant.

Last week the organisation had a change of heart and said Jenna could compete for the Miss Universe Canada sash.
Jenna, whose passport, driver’s licence and birth certificate all say she is female, appeared on Barbara Walters’ TV show to confirm she would take up the offer.
"Everyone has been asking me, but I saved it for this show," she said. "Yes, I'm going to compete."
Meanwhile the Miss Universe contest is changing its rulebook, opening up the competition to all transgender women in time for next year’s pageant.
Officials in New York said they are working with campaign group GLAAD to finalise the rule change.
GLAAD spokesperson Herndon Graddick said: “Jenna and all of the LGBT advocates who have called for this change and spoken out in support of transgender women are to be commended.
“At a time when transgender people are still routinely denied equal opportunities in housing, employment and medical care, today’s decision is in line with the growing levels of public support for transgender people across the country.”
Paula Shugart, president of the Miss Universe organisation, added: “We have a long history of supporting equality for all women, and this was something we took very seriously.”
Alright I admit it, if I didn't know she used to be a dude I'd bang.

This is a good question. I'd be interested in seeing what they have to say about this. Do they have her back as any other female?
This reminds me of the Inez Sainz mess with the NY Jets. This chick could only loosely be considered a journalist. She comes to work dressed like a whore - tiny tops, painted on jeans wedged up her ass. She showed up at a SuperBowl years ago dressed in a wedding dress, asking Tom Brady to marry her. She's a joke. The Jet players teased her a little - that's it. Even she said she was only a little embarrassed by the attention, but didn't feel threatened, or that she was going to get raped or anything. But another journalist was there and witnessed it, and it became a grand opportunity for some women's journalists group to get attention for themselves, so they went on the attack on her behalf, even though she said it wasn't a big deal. There was no reason for their organization to exist if they didn't speak up, even though deep down THEY didn't respect this chick. They all come to work dressed professionally, and take the job seriously, even though some of them shouldn't be covering sports. Rather than defending her, they should have pulled her aside and admonished her for showing up for work dressed like that, and acting like a bimbo. She's used to covering soccer down in Mexico, where it's basically okay to be a sex symbol and a personality, as opposed to an actual journalist.
"The best kind of pride is that which compels a man to do his best when no one is watching."

RE: Transgender Model to Run for Miss Universe.
She was invited back to the pageant...I wonder who's going to win
This is why I hate political correctness: It's all about don't offend anyone, everyone is special, everyone's a winner. The problem is that that's at odds with objective reality. E.g. gender dysphoria is a mental disorder, no one's born in the wrong body, she's a boy with mangled junk in skirt.
I check out her modelmayhem a week ago, she's not really that hot. More work than the George Washington Bridge: ribs, nose, boob, lips. I couldn't get a boner for her if I tried, it's too obvious. Plastic surgery hasn't gotten to where it looks natural yet imo.

If I looked out my showroom window and saw a fully-nude woman force-fucking an alligator with a strap-on while snorting xanex on the roof of her rental car with her three children locked inside with the windows rolled up, I wouldn't be entirely amazed.
