Someone had posted a picture of TS Madison and you could see the outline of her dick and that was all it took for Carmen to go OFF. Calling her disgusting, degrading, a bad example of Trans, that some Trans should be put down. Like it's... really disgusting.

This whole Carmen-thing sounds very like one of Shangela's strategies.
Seriously though: It's a sad, desperate attempt to remain relevant.

It's kind of like what people said about her when she raised her objections to the word tranny, no?

People should be giving money to this, so we can teach these girls some marketable skills.

Some yes, but there are assholes in every bunch but they were from the majority. I took issue with her hypocrisy and this only makes that stand out so much worse. She goes on about not degrading her sisters all the while... Degrading TS Madison...

I obviously can't speak to how Carmen actually feels, but just to how she comes across in her comments in the media. It seems like her view of what trans can be is "I want to look like a cis/biological pretty girl!" For a former drag queen she seems to have a limited view of what gender identity is and can be.
A bit of a devil's advocate point- I see the thought of how she probably gets asked dozens of questions daily about her body/gender/identity and how most uneducated "middle america" have the "you can't be called a women if you still have a penis!" idea. She's probably just lashing out at the blurring of the lines. I still think she should be talking about acceptance of any form of gender expression, since by definition, gender is illusion.

Posted: 9/12/14 at 2:30pmIt's no different than "straight acting" gay men bemoaning the fact that effeminate (for lack of a better word) gays are somehow doing their "cause" harm.

Posted: 9/12/14 at 4:37pmAll I see is a hypocritical narrow-minded mean girl desperate for attention.

Posted: 9/12/14 at 11:32pmSo does this mean it's okay to call drag queens "tranny" again?
