Jenna Talackova’s Disqualification
“Talackova was disqualified from the Miss Universe Canada contest last week after it was discovered she was born male.”
-Pageant Assistant Isabel Perez
“Perez said Miss Universe staff found information on Facebook that proved Talackova “lied” on her application form by stating that she was a “natural born” female.”
“I regard myself as a woman, with a history.”
-Jenna Talackova
“Disqualified for being born? Really? I don’t think so. I’m not going to just let them disqualify me over discrimination.”
-Jenna Talackova(tweeted, March 20th 2012)
Lots of people think that to be “truly” transgender is to get surgery, take hormones, and dress in a certain way.
The truth is, some transgender people go through life not getting surgery or hormones; those are both huge medical decisions, and some people feel comfortable without getting any alterations, whereas some people feel as if they need surgery to be comfortable and complete, and that’s okay. And that doesn’t make them less trans*.

In order please others, you must please yourself first. You need to love yourself before you’re in a condition to love others; You need to feed yourself before you have energy to feed others. You need to do what makes you happy to make anyone else happy. If transitioning makes you happy, it is just something you need to do. It’s not always a matter of self absorption, sometimes it’s a matter of self love.
