Sex changes, transvestites, Isis and ANTM

This seems to be a hot topic around the world at the moment. People are blogging about it. News people are reporting on it. Even Carte Blanche is doing a piece this Sunday about sex changes. And that’s not all. Isis, one of the models on the upcoming America’s Next Top Model (ANTM) (you know, that show with Tyra Banks), is “a woman who was born physically male”.

ANTM has always been a little controversial. They have cast lesbians and even plus-size models. While this is fantastic and should happen more on television, it seems like on every cycle of ANTM there has to be one contestant who gets tongues talking.

Other transgendered contestants have been disqualified from the show previously (see the clip below of Claudia Charriez who confuses Janice’s son – he says “the body says yes but the mind says no!).

See Isis’ auditioning on YouTube below:

So maybe Tyra has done what she set out to do. Because there is NO WAY I am missing the season premiere!
