Sometimes you just wanna be a big baby - Tracy TylerI am a woman, ok? Tracy is in a bit of a quandry. Our modern day suburban tranny Tracy Tyler is in a bit of a stick since she got cast as a man in a local production of the musical Sweeney Todd, the Demon Barber of Fleet Street.

Since Tracy has spent the past couple of years working hard to unveil the woman inside herself, being cast as a man in a musical challenges her gender identity, as well as her identity as an actor. What will Tracy do an how will she pull off this Victor/Victoria and then Victor again story?

She’s isn’t the only one playing around with gender. Isabella Rossellini has become a transpecies porn star in a series of short films about the sex lives of bugs, insects, and various creatures. Each episode begins with Isabella speaking to the camera “ If I were a…(firefly, spider, dragonfly etc.).” She then dons a male costume of that species and explains how the species does “it.” Birds do it, bees do it, let’s fall in love.

So after CNN interviewed the three tools wearing the Abercrombie & Fitch t-shirts to confirm that the Bama isn’t taking advertisers, the general public (including me) have come out with their own “Obamacrombie” and “Hillister” t-shirts. Who will win this fashion election?

Obamacrombie - Vote for Obama T-Shirt OR Hillister - Hillary Clinton T-Shirt

Bikini season is just around the corner and Tracy is wondering if she will sport a bikini or will she cover it up like that incident in Katmandu, or was that Kalamazoo? Maybe it was in Kankakee or in Kenosha? We’re just glad it wasn’t in Cucamonga.

Plus tips on tipping the pizza delivery guy, how to get what you want from a hot sexy man. Stick around!
