ooo i wanted to see that

[Jesse]

Thanks for the heads up. Really wish the media would catch up on terminology and respect though.

"Michelle; Austin
Woman who wants to be a man uses heroin;"

[Julie]

Thank You - It's ON!

[DapperButch]

"Michelle" is the trans person - next segment. Believe female who desires to be male. Just saw a very brief clip, so I am not certain.

Michelle, a lesbian, was abandoned by her father at age three, molested by a stranger at five, and ridiculed in middle school for her skin color. The love of her life left her when she decided to become a man. Now Michelle is struggling with heroin and desperately needs an intervention.

(THe show features two people--Austin and Michelle--the latter's segment hasn't been shown yet.)

[Julie]

I am confused!

Person 1 - Austin

Person 2 - Michelle (see HSN's post).


Austin is a different person, has nothing to do with Michelle. Right now the show is focused on Austin. Michelle has not been on yet.

Sorry if I added confusion. I copied/pasted that from the online tv guide for my area.

Person 1 - Austin

Person 2 - Michelle (see HSN's post).


Austin is a different person, has nothing to do with Michelle. Right now the show is focused on Austin. Michelle has not been on yet.

YAY Felix!

But I was not pleased how they kept referring to Felix as "her," even when using the name Michelle - especially the woman at PRIDE. That bothered me a bit.

BUT - YAY Felix!

[Soon]

~~GO Felix!

[DapperButch]

I like when Felix said something about "I am no longer trying to a boy, I am a boy" (or something like that). :)

[Corkey]

It really bothered me that the therapist at the PRIDE institute kept saying that Felix didn't have to transition now that he's gone thru the program.
AAAAANNNNDDDD, what is with AMY always saying her and she when Amy knows that Felix is male. Mind boggling, but YEY MOM for getting it right!
I hope Felix keeps going in recovery, good for him for accepting the challenge.
