Mainstream Movies and Songs with TGs

Someone said Iron Women hadn't been mentioned but I think it was. There are other episodes of good TV showa I can think of but some involve Ambigious genitals situations not sure what is to be said about that? I guess it's a transgender thing but it's more of a what do you do? Question.

Just saw the Toby Keith (US Country/western music performer) music video for "I Love This Bar".

There are no lyrics refering to TSs, but in the video this guy starts pushing up on this great lokkin' chic who happens to be taller than him. After makin' out, and dancin close stuff they cut to another scene. When they come back the guy is going to the men's room, where he finds his beautiful damsel standing at the urinal! When she comes out of the bathroom, the rest of the guys react as if they already knew and it was no big deal. (Hey, I'd do her.)

(Yeah, it was a country/western music video, and the song is a hit and Toby Keith is very famous in the genre. And no smart-ass comments about me watchin' country music please!)

How about someone sayin' there's nothing wrong with you watchin' country videos.

There was an episode of Two and a Half men when Charlie (Sheen) meets a guy who used to be a woman he had slept with years ago. As a man his old girlfriend ends up sleeping with Charlie's mom and calamity insues.

I wasn't referring to TV show episodes as well, 'cos I suppose there's been a few of those, but since we've started mentioning them, here are a couple more.

I seem to remember an episode of Spin City (in its Michael J Fox days) where Carter tricks Stuart into dating a gorgeous blonde transexual. There was also a Seinfeld episode where Jerry went on a date with a woman (who may have been a TS) who had "man hands" as he called them.

Despite being a fan of both series, I don't think either shone a very positive light on TGs.

(Ahh ahh yeah!)
Took off her shirt

Took off her bra

Took off her pants

GIRLS WILL BE GIRLS is a campy drag flick with the famous Miss Coco from TRICK. As far as tv series goes, QUEER AS FOLK as transgender storylines as well. I just saw BRIDE & PREJUDICE (hindi inspired move based loosely on Jane Austen's Pride & Prejudice) and they had some crossdressers and transsexuals dancing on the streets with the main characters in the beginning and ending song sequences. Even the spoof reels in the end of the credits showed them.
