There's diversity in nature, so why not the media?

Everything about the Kardashian family's public image centers around shock and dysfunction - the very image the trans people are trying to shed.

Television has played an important role in normalizing the experiences of gay men and lesbians in America.

If what the transgender movement seeks is acceptance, association with the Kardashian circus is the last thing it needs.

While television can help normalize the lives of marginalized people, it also can exploit their hardships and reinforce stereotypes, reducing their lives to mere entertainment.

Transgender people really are misunderstood.
