Transvestite contacts in your social life
October 26, 2009
One fashionista who have climbed onto the transvestite bandwagon is model Heidi Klum who has her very own reality program called “Project Runway”. Heidi got the interns on her show to design fabulous outfits for cross dressers. The drag queen outfits were so magnificent that they were later auctioned off for charity. Victoria Beckham is often described as a shemale and she definitely gets her fashion inspiration from transsexuals. In a recent interview Mrs. Beckham said that there is a gay man inside her trying to get out.
Ladyboys are also the center of attention in the comedy about the fashion industry “Ugly Betty”. In this TV series we see the President/CEO of Meade Publications is none other than transwomen Alexis Meade, formerly known as Alex Meade before going for a sex change. This fictional character shows the world what it feels like to a woman who is trapped inside a man’s body. While most shemales don’t go for surgery to change their sex from male to female, only expressing their true sexuality by having breasts and dressing up like a female, Alexis went all the way.
A few years back it was taboo to even think outside your heterosexual framework. If you showed any interest in the LGBTI (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and intersex) UK community, you were considered an outsider. We have the media to thank for changing that image though covering transvestites in magazines, newspapers, blogs, radio shows and movies. Oprah Winfrey invited celebrity lesbian Ellen DeGeneres to star with her on the cover of “O Magazine” after she hosted a show called – “why women are leaving men for other women”. The internet also played a huge part into introducing this lifestyle to the man on the street and giving them adult sites where they can find out about alternative swinging parties and dogging events. Now we have less people in the closet and happier adult who are comfortable with whom they are.
It certainly seems like female musicians aren’t scared to explore other lifestyles. We have Britney Spears who is “seeking Amy” in an raunchy S&M inspired music video that pays tribute to the suburbia housewives of the 60′s who took part in wife swapping. Then we have Katy Perry “who kissed a girl and liked it” in her hit song that lesbians around the world love. The program “The L-word” is about a group of lesbians and how they cope with everyday life and reality hit “Queer eye for the straight guy” gives fashion tips from gays.
