There are at least three involving transsexuals NG runs. There is the general one,which has been running lately. There's another that focuses on the "eunuchs" of India,their yearly festival,and the town it takes place in. (I can't remember the name for the eunuchs)
Finally there is one that involves a woman's trip down the river systems of Burma/Myanmar,a good part of which involves a transsexual shaman/entertainer she travels with.
Excuse the couch potato like knowledge. I was house bound recovering from an illness for nearly a year. I watched a LOT of tv.

It aired last week also. I caught most of it, quite interesting stuff. They open with some American FTM's that could whip the ass of half the "real" guys on here. Speaking of that so could the Thai MTF who's a former Muay Thai fighter. And then there were the Samoan Baba Booeys...Fafa Fooeys or something like that. They actually looked like Gary in a sarong.
My witty signature.

Saw it... didn't really like it. Alot of the second half of the episode played out like a freak show.
And if there's anything we need, it's definitely more freakish media portrayals.
Dontcha think?

I checked National Geographic channel website for more info found this brief description
How far will people go to change their looks - and their life - to become the person of their dreams? In America, enter the transgender community, where some men and women undergo surgery and inject hormones to become the sex they believe they truly are. Experts including transgender artist Loren Cameron provide insight into the practice.
Googled Loren Cameron found some interesting photos on her sitehttp://www.lorencameron.com/thanks.html

With a little imagination one could from the people shown on there picture all kinds of transsexuals. Between those archetypal extremes there is room for everyone. ( Kind of like using coordinates {x,y,z,t} to represent a infinity of possible positions.)
