It wasn't a problem for either of them when they were standing in front of Ru and She-Mail was coming on screen.

Dragging the show that helped put you where you are. Complete mess.

You don't know the behind the scenes stuff so i wouldn't say that and Ms. Hillz makes it clear she's been uncomfortable with the saying from the get go.

They're right. Drag Race/LOGO of all people should be able to see the offense in all of this & respect the Trans community.

It's just a joke, not like he is serious.

I know what I saw, and I saw both of them cheering for she-mail every week.

And in Carmens case, he was calling himself a boy and living as a boy at the time.

Just like how its a joke when white people "joke" about slavery or a straight person "jokes" about all gays being sissy promiscuous queens with aids.

Just because it's deemed a "joke" doesn't take away from the fact that it could be offensive to someone.

Exactly. We can't speak on a trans person's behalf on what is offensive or not. If one of our fav shows used a term like 'sissy, ***, etc' to describe gays, you can see why some people would be offended.

Why don't they also callout the Oscar nominated movies Transamerica & Dallas Buyers Club? I think their portrayal of trannies was a little more abrasive. The fact they are coming for a show that has brought awareness to their community is EMBARASSING.



Thank the Lord that Sonique & Porkchop haven't come for RPDR. They have their dignity intact.

what if some people identify as she males and not women?

Expose.

Carmen Carrera is such a dim-witted embarrassment. I hate that she gets all this media attention over well-spoken and educated trans activists like Laverne Cox or Janet Mock.

She's a pretty girl and I'm glad she's found her happiness but she is flat out too stupid to be speaking on any causes. Like I saw an interview like a week ago where she didn't even know what the Tea Party is

Hmmm..Yet they actively participated in all of the segments and such. It's not as if they came on the show not knowing how the show and Rupaul operated. Should have never signed up for it in the first place then.

As someone who has been around the drag scene, these tired queens can take a million seats.

For one: RU PAUL is a cross dresser, do you really think he is saying these things from a place of hate?!

Secondly, Carmen is not new to the game and she is VERY, VERY vers on drag terminology and lingo and how they speak, it's a sub culture and they all use words like this, from WAY, WAY back to the beginning of gay time, even before trans people started to become more prevalent due to surgical advancement, and Ru is one of the old school queens herself who PAVED the way for her stupid arse to even be where she is today and have the success that she does.

I partied and used to see Carmen all the time when she used to go to the gay clubs, and this was before she was big on drag race. She was all the slang just like Ru=Paul did. She knows whats up and knows good and well people say Tranny and She male as a short way of saying transexual. It's like people say gay instead of homosexual. And drag queens especially talk a lot of **** to each other out of comedy and "reads." She is really trying it now that she has a big head due to boost of fame.

Don't bite the hands that feds you honey. You will suffer greatly.

All of y'all acting like they don't deserve respect and that them becoming famous from the show justifies transphobia are despicable.

I don't think calling a drag queen a shemale s the same thing as calling a transexual person a shemale, but they have every right to be upset/offended.
