    seanchai, Please don't get this site in trouble with the legions of Bea Arthur fans out there.

    Did anyone see Holiday Heart? It featured Ving Rhames as a Drag Queen. And yes he did look as bad as one imagines, but its a good movie.

    In cartoons The Oblongs (shown on The Cartoon Network during their Adult orientated Programming) has a transsexual Bartender. So did Shrek. I see a theme here.

    IFC shows a film by the name of "Different For Girls". I'm sure someone already mentioned it.

    Interesting movie is Belle al Bar, by Italian director Alessandro Benvenuti, starring Eva Robins.
    How a man comes to fall in love with his transsexual cousin. No porn.

    I thought so, too, but the director of Shrek 2 has been adamant that Larry King's character was just an extremely manly GG.


    If you're not part of the solution, you're part of the precipitate.

    I surprised nobody has mentioned the song "Somebody Told Me" by The Killers out of Las Vegas:

    "Somebody Told Me"

    Breaking my back just to know your name
    Seventeen tracks and I've had it with this game
    I'm breaking my back just to know your name
    But heaven ain't close in a place like this
    Anything goes but don't blink you might miss
    Cause heaven ain't close in a place like this
    I said heaven ain't close in a place like this
    Bring it back down, bring it back down tonight
    Never thought I'd let a rumor ruin my moonlight

    Well somebody told me
    You had a boyfriend
    Who looked like a girlfriend
    That I had in February of last year
    It's not confidential
    I've got potential

    Ready? Let's roll onto something new
    Taking its toll and I'm leaving without you

    Cause heaven ain't close in a place like this
    I said heaven ain't close in a place like this
    Bring it back down, bring it back down tonight
    Never thought I'd let a rumor ruin my moonlight

    Well somebody told me
    You had a boyfriend
    Who looked like a girlfriend
    That I had in February of last year
    It's not confidential
    I've got potential
    A rushin', a rushin' around

    Pace yourself from me
    I said maybe baby please
    But I just don't know now
    When all I wanna do is try

    Somebody told me
    You had a boyfriend
    Who looked like a girlfriend
    That I had in February of last year
    It's not confidential
    I've got potential
    A rushin', a rushin' around

    Default Cherry Lips (Go Baby Go) by Garbage

    It looked like rainbows would appear
    Whenever you came near
    the clouds would dissapear
    Because you look just like a girl
    your baby blues would flash
    and suddenly a spell was cast
    you're such a delicate boy
    in the hysterical realm
    of an emotional land slide
    in physical terms

    Was going to but the band claims it's not about TSs.

    No one saw the movie escape from LA, so no one mentioned Pam Grier playing a TS in that one.

    Also forgot about another episode of CSI in which a big movie star sleeps with 2 asian girls and one turns out to be a TS so he kills them both. When they uncover one girl in a golf course sand trap Nick (George Eads) says frank and beans. Indicating she has male genitals.
