[sorry kids, it's been a little bit. The last week or so has contained a bit of upheaval. I'm trying to post more regularly.]

Do any of you watch America's Next Top Model? What's your take on the eligibility of Isis, who was born a man and is transitioning? Let it first be said that my thinking on this has NOTHING to do with her choice of lifestyle and its potential collision with the beliefs of my religion. I'm more put off by the artificiality of her beauty. Was she born with that hair? Probably not. Was she born with lips that big? Um, don't think so. I would love to see a male model on ANTM... but theoretically Isis has eliminated someone who was BORN with female qualities (speaking STRICTLY of physicality - please don't misunderstand me here!) and the question has to come to mind whether that is fair to the other person. It seems that Isis has the most potential in that she moves very well with the camera. But I'm very curious to know what your take is.

Interestingly enough, Isis wasn't the first not-100%-female contestant to enter the show, and she was disqualified. HMMM.

Ratings ploy much?
