Sexy laverne cox - I'm a Trans Woman, but Please Stop Asking Me About My Genitalia

Outrageously, trans people's bodies have been open for public dissection since 1952 when Christine Jorgensen became the media's first sex change darling, and in the 60 years since Jorgensen's headline-making path to womanhood, journalists from Barbara Walters to Katie Couric are still asking the same tired questions about our bodies.

For example, I know that a commercial I enjoy actually irks my best friend.

She also became the first transgender person to be featured on the cover of a Cosmopolitan magazine.

A lot of us are sexy not despite our transness, but because of our transness.
