Was Michael Jackson transgender?

Do you think he just didn't have the guts to follow through with the surgery?

by Anonymousreply 46June 1, 2021 12:25 PM

Yes

by Anonymousreply 1April 10, 2015 1:29 PM

Not at all.

In private, he had a deep voice and was far more masculine acting that the femmy, fey whispery persona he put on to lull parents into thinking he was not a sexual predator.

by Anonymousreply 2April 10, 2015 1:54 PM

No. In reality he was not transgendered. That was all an act. However, he was a pedophile.

by Anonymousreply 3April 10, 2015 3:05 PM

No, he was an effeminate, homosexual pedophile.

R2 and r3, he had plastic surgery and wore wigs to look female. That wasn't an act. And he did not have a "deep voice"

by Anonymousreply 5April 10, 2015 4:27 PM

He was an M-E-Double S-Mess.

He also had makeup tattooed on his face

R5, Lisa-Marie Presley, who knew him better than you, says he had a deep, normal male voice in private.

[quote][R2] and [R3], he had plastic surgery and wore wigs to look female.

That behavior does not make him transgendered, and you have no proof that he sought to specifically "look female." What we do know is that he wished to erase the features he perceived as inherited from his father, that he had a classic case of body dysmorphia, and that he was a bit self-loathing about his race and ethnicity. These things might have fueled actions that resulted in him looking more feminine, but they don't prove that he ultimately or consciously wanted to "look female." I think more than anything he wanted to look white, thin and "beautiful," according to his own warped perceptions and definitions of the word.

Are there any reports of him cross-dressing or expressing a desire to become female? We've heard so much more about behavior and statements far more bizarre, so it seems odd that such stories haven't come out If he was in fact transgendered and wished to be or become a woman.

He was an effeminate man with myriad eccentricities. That does not a transgendered person make.

I like the theory that all the facial surgeries weren't intended to make him look like a woman, they were intended to make him look the animated Disney version of Peter Pan.

He was attempting to look like a boy, not a woman, and of course that's impossible so he ended up looking like the Phantom of the Opera.

No OP, Michael Jackson wasn't trans. But you already knew that didn't you. He also wasn't a pedo or a homosexual. But you knew that too. Racism alive and well here at DL. In other words business as usual.

So, by your logic, people who disdain Charles Manson are anti-white racists.

michael had kiddie porn in his mansion

by Anonymousreply 15April 11, 2015 1:41 AM

What are you even talking about R14? Manson was crazy. He may not of killed anyone (White women did that-no surprise) but he is still crazy. Not to mention in jail for life. Trying to compare him to MJ is beyond racist and sick but that's what you all do here.

by Anonymousreply 16April 11, 2015 1:42 AM

R13, what world are you living in? Of course he was a pedo. That's not racism, just the truth. Most pedos are white anyway.

by Anonymousreply 17April 11, 2015 1:43 AM

Of coarse most pedos are white R17. No one is (or could) dispute that. White folks do all kinds of sick shit. So mentioning the obvious (how their pedos) doesn't hide your racism. Child molesting is just like racism in that it is a white persons disease. Not surprised you'd try and deflect. It's been white people's game for centuries.

Women don't tend to lust after pre-pubescent boys, so I don't think he was trying to become one.

by Anonymousreply 21April 11, 2015 2:40 AM

For a bunch of reasons, Jackson rejected masculinity and adulthood, and was drawn to femininity and childhood. Hence the gentle-seeming, high-voiced, boy-girl person he slowly and surely presented to us. Sexually, he was a homosexual, but one who was repulsed, to a certain degree, by adult males. That's where the little boys came in.

by Anonymousreply 22April 11, 2015 3:59 AM

This whole transgender talk is making people even more stupid than they were before. No one is born "transgender" - if you have an operation of body modification, then you are transgender. He had mental problems and was isolated, who knows what went on in his childhood. He seemed to embrace androgyny and seemed to have pedo inclinations.

Diana Ross caught the fucker using her own makeup to transform himself into her image, so I'd say yes, OP.

He had so much surgery that one more to cut off his cock would not have been an issue.

If he had passed away I'd wager he'd have transitioned by now.

Who's the loon on here pretending he wasn't a child molester? GTFO at this point every one knows what went on with him

Isht jussht not true, honey!

by Anonymousreply 30May 31, 2021 7:04 AM

I think he was trying to de-Joseph his facial features because of all the past trauma. Remember, he started performing at age 5 and was exposed to a lot more than any other 5 year old.

He seemed like the kind of person who had a very open mind about human sexuality but had to repress it because of the family upbringing. I just got the impression that what he saw in the real world turned him into a monster- his father cheating, his father berating him and beating him, seedy men sniffing strippers panties in the strip clubs where the J5 performed, seedy men leering over strippers, his seedy brothers bringing groupies and having sex with them in their shared hotel rooms. One of the brothers once shopped around a book proposal claiming that Joe Jackson used to take Michael to late night "meetings" with business men, after which Michael would be really sick and vomiting all the time.

I also believe he was a paedophile. He was probably one of those people who was abused as a young performer and continued on to abuse other kids.

Trans-no. Mentally ill-Yes

FWIW when police/FBI obtained a search warrant and raided Jackson’s mansion, by their own account the only porn that they found were a few magazines featuring adult women, i.e., for heteros. There was no child porn found. There were a few (two or three) coffee table art books (out of a collection of thousands of books in the house) that included some artistic nudes. The DA deliberately leaked the bogus kiddie porn claim in an attempt to taint Jackson’s jury pool.

by Anonymousreply 33May 31, 2021 10:05 AM

R33 yeah just ignore the "lifesize doll children", the alarm on the bedroom, the pictures of him holding boys like lovers, the fingerprints of boys on those books, 5 male victims that had matching testimonies, the gifts thier boys and their parents, until punerty that is (then they were tossed aside), that staff never seen women sleeping in his bedroom with him -- ever (but he slept with one boy 30 nights in a row, with was verified), the correct drawing of his penis by one accuser, a sexualized mannequin of a woman right next to the bed....

Those with experience with predators are well aware they use adult erotica to groom. It's not unusual for pedos to have adult porn, or even have normal sexual relations with adults at the same time.

There's a lot of adults that love children, but don't spend the night with them in their beds (in a bedroom rigged with alarms). There's plenty of abusers out there that we know don't have hard evidence against them, but that doesn't make them innocent because accumulated evidence is damning, especially when there's testimony from victims themselves.

by Anonymousreply 34May 31, 2021 10:46 AM

R34 Yet with all that and a jury pool that had been subjected to a decade’s worth of “Wacko Jacko is a Pedo” headlines, he was acquitted. There was never any “there” there.

Non-binary?

by Anonymousreply 40June 1, 2021 11:27 AM

No, I really don't think so. Jackson seemed to be trying to do several things at once: change the person he was, make others see him as harmless and trustworthy, and also create a physical image of himself that matched an ideal he had created in his head.

If he'd been trying to look like a woman, he wouldn't have gone with the heavy eyebrows and overdone square jaw. He also always had five o'clock shadow. Personally I think he was trying to combine old fashioned masculine features with childlike eyes and ended up looking like a freak.

Was he transracial? Every comedian has joked about him looking like a white lady...but really, he looked like a white lady. Not a normal white lady, but a Bravo Housewife type of white lady.

And this is how he started—a far cry from a white lady:

The housewife who most closely adheres to Michael's aesthetics is Jen Shah.

R43 I think his endgame was more like Kyle Richards. Jen is too dark and her nose and lips are too bold for Michael Jackson's surgeons.

R44 I didn't mean to compare Shah's skin tone to Michael's. Shah has had over the top plastic surgery and looks like a alien - hence the MJ comparison. Kyle Richards has not turned her face into an alien mask - not yet. She still looks human so she is no where near the level of Michael and Jen.
