Transgender Day of Remembrance
Today we remember all the trans people who have lost their lives from hate, intolerance and prejudice. Because I believe people need education on this, they don’t understand how we can feel this way. Many people think it is unnatural and that we are playing “GOD”. If they really took the time to understand that this is not something we wished upon ourselves or that it is something that we control. It is what it is. If you can look at someone like me who was so hateful towards myself and others before I decided to go through transition,then maybe you can see how this is a positive thing not a negative thing.
If you know anyone who needs to be educated on this subject please take the time to do it.
Getting tattooed at Nola Tattoo
Whoever says that getting tattooed does not hurt is full of it. It hurts! But my tattoo artist buddy Walt Clark is one of my favorite’s to get tattooed by because he is fast! I have been wanting to cover up a tattoo for a while but just never had time and never in New Orleans. So since I was here it was time. Here is the gallery of the tattoo time.
WOOF!!
Buck Angel’s Trans Women Prostate PSA
I had the pleasure of working with Drew DeVeaux for this new PSA on Trans Women health. Please pass it around as it is super important. She is very lovely and a very easy to work with. We just started rolling the camera and this is what we got.
Pride Toronto 2010
I just spent three weeks working in Toronto. I was asking to come speak at IdeaCity10 which I posted about in an earlier post and that was so awesome.
After IdeaCity 10 I stayed for two more weeks to do shows at SWITCH, St, Marcs Spa and Pride Stage. All the shows Kicked ass. Then I was asked to be on the Aids Committee Toronto ACT float in the Pride parade. That was so much fun. The float won best community float! I have to say it was such an honor being asked to be apart of that. Any AIDS related service I can do i am always there. My kid Rebekka Armstrong ( shes not by birth, I adopted her!) is HIV positive and is an amazing educator. Check her site out at Rebekkaonline.net
I also did tons of interviews and did some TV. Toronto is always good about promoting me. My good friend Shaun Proulx had a private party for the screening of the interview he did with me for OUT TV
So now better then writing I am posting lots of pics for you to see. Some from the new release UFC2/Tattooed and Screwed. Some are not that great and kinda blurry so sorry about that, But I think they are still cool and you get to see me getting ready for my show at SWITCH, In a dirty backroom..
WOOF!!
