Ticked-Off Trannies With Knives

Seth Abramovitch at Movieline calls GLAAD out, accusing the organization of censorship:

“When, exactly, did GLAAD start delineating between what is acceptable or not acceptable humor within the whole Queer spectrum for whom they advocate? According to their logic, drag as a subject is an OK area for broad satire, because it’s ‘performing,’ but transexualism is not. Well, what if the transexual in question also happens to be a raunchy drag performer, like Dirty Sexy Money star Candis Cayne? Doesn’t the voice of the filmmaker count for something? Are transexuals incapable of laughing at themselves? If you can’t love yourself, how the hell are you gonna love someone else? Can I get an amen up in here?! (And don’t f*ck it up.) And even more importantly — isn’t this, like, censorship?”

In my mind, GLAAD is right there with HRC… What do these organizations really do other than throw big-ticket D-List celebrity circle-jerk fundraisers? Oh right, they issue inane press releases. And HRC sells stickers and t-shirts.

Oh, d-d-dear!
