A Rose Is a Rose Is a Rose Is a Rose

December 10, 2007 by WendyB

I enjoyed this story about Rose, India’s first transgendered late-night TV talk show host. Go on with your bad self, Rose! As I recently mentioned, one of my 15 personalities is three-year-old boy who is really a girl trapped in a boy’s body. Sweet’ums, as he likes to be called, was thrilled about Rose. But then the personality who is a 36-year-old, electric-guitar-playing, blindingly-white-toothed, hairsprayed minister of a megachurch gave Sweet’ums the beatdown. I hate it when that happens. Especially because Minister JimBob picks up transgendered hos whenever his wife is out of town! Hypocrite! “Dude looked like a lady” is a weak excuse, Minister JimBob!

    Pity people like Rose. I’ve watched a documentary about them on Discovery and people do treat them bad… Well, peace for all, especially THE desert rose.
