Old school transsexuals of yore

Christine Jorgensen, April Ashley, Amanda Lear (even though she won’t admit it)...I’m fascinated by them. They were/are so glamorous. Just look at Amanda doing Queen of Chinatown:

I’d love to know more about her boytoys, past & present.

One was possibly Ricardo Perna. Though she might have just hired him as arm-candy to be photographed around with her.

Another one of her boytoys was Manuel Casella. Possibly a PR relationship.

Perhaps Lear really is female. Otherwise one of her many boytoys would have probably blabbed to the Italian yellow press about whether she had visible genitalia surgery, in a lucrative exposé.

April Ashley outed Amanda years ago. They used to work together at Le Carrousel in Paris.

So why is Lear still lying that she’s not Trans?

Surely any one of her consorts who looks at her operated genitalia will find out.

Several people outed her R8, including David Bowie who she had an affair with.

Why are transsexuals today so lame?

R9, I wasn’t questioning the outing - I was asking why she’s still lying.

Sorry R12, misunderstood your post. I don't know, perhaps she just thinks it's her own personal business.

Amanda's first 7 albums and everything she produced after 2000 are amazing. Her 90's stuff is crap.

R9 what motivated people to out Amanda?

by Anonymousreply 16February 7, 2018 4:25 AM

R16 I don't know why. I think they just mentioned working with her when she was a man, like it wasn't really ever a secret.

We went from these fierce bitches to the likes of Caitlyn Jenner who kind of looks like an uglier Aileen Wuornos.

Aleshia Brevard’s book is a good read.

One of the older “girls” I knew was a wild child of the 70s. She got all the dick she wanted back then because straight men were so uneducated about Trans back then. She says she has no idea how she didn’t become positive bitd.
