The annual gay beauty pageant and talent contest known as IML has just chosen a female-to-male transgender in a wheelchair for International Mr. Leather 2010. I am not making this up.
It always struck me as odd that the group supposedly the most attracted to masculinity was the group most into beauty pageants.
And the message here, from this "apparently" most-appreciative-of-masculinity gay group, is that when it comes to being a "man", having a cock and balls is irrelevant. Now that's progress...
If I had plastic surgery and dyed my skin dark, who would support me entering the Mr. Black America contest? People would be horrified. Beyond horrified. Yet here we have Mr. Leather, with her plastic surgery and hormones, being feted as a male role model...We accept that you can change your gender, but not your race. We live in a strange time.
Anyhow.
Some thoughts of mine from previous posts on the question, "What's wrong with homsexuality?"
