Okay, FIRST OF ALL.. Jo Calderone has nothing to do with being trans. It is based on a psychological theory by Carl Jung that people have both a female and male alter-ego.
Carl Jung believed that we each have within us both male and female qualitites, which together comprise the totality of who we are. The animus is the archetype in a woman that represents her male alter ego.
Do your research before you sound like an idiot. Yeah, she is an entertainer so she takes it to extremes, but there is a motive behind everything she does. If you actually devoted enough attention to her speech at the MTV awards, you would notice how deep her speech truly was. But you are all to busy negatively running your mouth to notice.
I don’t understand how someone can have so much “hatred” for someone who has done for the gay community. It’s like biting the hand that feeds you. For the person who said they haven’t seen what she has done for the gay community, are you kidding me? What about all the suicides she has prevented? Or the self-esteem she has instilled in so many of us? Or the strength to come out, and be ourselves? That is aside from all of her political movements.
She urged her fans to call their senators in order to take action against Don’t Ask Don’t Tell. Her “meat dress” which is so heavily criticized, was her way of showing that DEAD MEAT is DEAD MEAT. Those who serve our country and give their life for us, are worthy of their rights regardless of their sexual orientation. She also showed up that day with members of the LGBT community who have been discharged for their sexual orientation. This was all done to make a statement. And she played a huge role in the how much attention was brought to it.
Or how about when she released her Born This Way album, and she made a deal with Target that allowed them to sell it as long as they stopped donating money to anti-gay organizations?
Or how she’s been fighting so hard to make bullying illegal. How many celebrities do you know will meet with the president of the United States in order to put a stop to something that has become an epidemic in our country? To protect the well-being of kids everywhere, as well as her fans?
So don’t bash someone you know nothing about. DO NOT say she has done nothing for me, because she has done more than anyone ever has or will.
