FTM - MTF - WTF?

Last night I watched a movie that was part of the Showtime's gay pride line-up called "Soldier's Girl". It was based on a true story about a 21 year soldier who falls in love with a transexual performer at a drag show club. Private Barry Winchell got murdered while asleep in his barracks by another soldier after a drunken 4th of July party.

When real the event happened in 1999, I guess it just slipped under my radar. It was a very complex story involving forbidden love, machismo, Don't Ask Don't Tell, mental illness, and misfits. I was such a perfect story, I only hope it was told accurately.

I put a special effort into watching the actor playing the MTF (male to female transexual) to decide if he was believable. I Tivo'd the "making of" video which followed the movie, so I played a little game of guessing if the actor playing "Calpernia" was a man or a woman. The credits said the part of Calpernia was played by "Lee Pace". Oh great, "Lee" could be male or female, like "It's Pat" from Saturday Night Live!

She showed her bare tits throughout the movie, so I thought it might actually be a big break for a real life MTF actress.

Upon watching the "making of" video, Lee Pace is most definitely a man, baby. (and cute, too!) The tits were a rubber appliance that covered his whole chest. When I saw that, I remembered seeing the boobs puckering like a piece of rubber in one of the sex scenes.

So they fooled me.

Coincidentally, I was also contacted yesterday by a guy named Buck who has a website called Transexual-Man. He's an FTM (female to male) who wants to be a porn star.

No wonder I can't get a fucking date! Even tranny-boys are more buffed than me, have a deeper voice, have more hair on their chests, and can grow a better beard.

Buck sent me a password, so I looked through the site. I don't know anything about the female anatomy and even less about choices for reconstruction, but it appears he has a pussy and a fabricated 1 inch dick. Since he's a guy, he naturally lies about it and says it's 2 inches. He plays with a vibrator the way straight women do, but when he has a fake penis sticking out of his underwear, it's so believable, he could be a model for Zeus, Factory Video, Brush Creek or Altomar.

Hey babe, take a walk on the wild side. And the colored girls go, doot, doo-doot, doo-doot, doo-doot-doo-doot, doot....
