Re: The First Transsexual Fashion Magazine & Real Transsexual Fashion Models
In the 1970's and 1980's Tracy Africa was a international print and runway
model, who was under contract with many major fashion houses, and had
done photo shoots with many magazines and products.
When someone divulged her gender to the fashion industry in New York
during a shoot for ESSENCE she had to leave New York to work in Paris.
She has had GRS, and is now retired from the fashion industry.

Oh God. Being a muse is not a job. It's just a nice way to say someone is so amazing that they inspire you to be creative in your art.
The artist might pay the "muse" to represent their product, but that's a consequence of inspiring the product, doesn't mean that being a muse is a job per se.

Re: The First Transsexual Fashion Magazine & Real Transsexual Fashion Models
Thanks. I don't have any familiarity with the artistic life and I really didn't know. I thought in order to be an inspiration, she would have to be around his studio for much of her time. That would cut into her ability to do something else to make money. So I figured a quid pro quo existed, involving money or perhaps even sex, given the power differential that might exist between a struggling model and a famous artist.

collaborating and MAJOR fashion house advertisers.
HEY ALLANAH, POSTED ABOUT THIS A COUPLE WEEKS AGO
BUT IT DIDNT GET MUCH RESPONSE ?
Transsexuals Are Edging Into the Mainstream Is 2010 the Year of ...
"Candy, it turns out, is but one of the more visible bits of evidence that 2010 will be remembered as the year of the transsexual."
" Not since the glam era of the 1970s has gender-bending so saturated the news media. The difference now is that mystery has been replaced with empowerment, even pride."
