Well, Cygan was wondering why there wasn't one, so I made it. I guess we can talk about queer stuff. :3

Oh, and if you're wondering, non-queer folks are welcome too.

Ugh, North Carolina.

I hate how some of my favourite wrestlers are from there.

So...I don't know if this is exactly controversial or not, but Epic Rap Battles recently did a rap battle between Bruce Banner and Bruce Jenner.

On the one hand, they had an actual Mt F woman to play Caitlyn Jenner.

On the other hand...I dunno, something about it feels odd. Should I link it?

I mean, if they used Bruce in the title then that's something right there, I should think.

I heard that the real Caitlyn Jenner wants to become a man again.

Well they started it off with her before her transition. It was like some whole motif thing about transformation.

It's fine, the rumor was pretty widespread.

While we're on the topic of Tabloid BS, I really hate that shit. I know that the news is ovbiously not 100% trustworthy and all, but it annoys me when you have a magazine cover saying blatantly false crap like "Robin Williams was actually murdered and the police just covered it up so they could investigate it!" or "Micheal J. Fox is going to take a life threatening surgery and is already paying for his own funeral". Like WTF people?

Caitlyn: There's no point in ranting about it. ERB has lots of 'twist' battles that include more than just what's in the title. The actual video doesn't mock her for her transformation in itself. If anything, it increases trans exposure, as ERB has a huge account of followers. Our community is used to immediately reacting to this stuff, but I don't think that it's justified in this case. 'Bruce' fits the title, and transformation is the theme of the battle. We're only going to looklike the weirder side of Tumblr of we complain about absolutely everything. We should avoid becoming exaggerations of ourselves.

They should have just had Bruce Banner vs Bruce Wayne.

Swolf has it, then.

Though personally I would've preferred Bruce Banner vs. Henry Jekyll.

No, because that one wouldn't let them ride the controversy train for free publicity.

I'm fucking tired of Jenner being used to represent trans people in general. But beyond that, I felt that that rap battle was one of their weaker ones.

I'm honestly hoping somebody else who is trans can come along and shake up peoples' perceptions, it would drain Jenner's publicity because that's all she is along with the rest of that lot - publicity animals.

I think there is an inherent contradiction there. In hoping that a non-publicity animal take centre stage. Such is life that the attention seekers get tv shows.

[up][up]Not exactly, because it's quite possible for a person who isn't a pure publicity animal to be able to deal with it and use it properly.

You don't NEED to be such an animal to know how to work it, and when that person is found they will only do good things for trans people as a whole.

Some dude tried organizing a straight pride parade, last year. He was the only one in it, because it was in Seattle.
