MEN’S magazine Playboy has featured its first ever transgender ‘playmate’ centrefold in its November issue, a move which the model hopes will pave the way for “all women — trans or otherwise — in fashion and other sectors”.
Ines Rau, a French fashion model who was featured nude in a 2014 issue of Playboy and has previously worked with Balmain and Vogue Italia, is the first transgender model to appear as a centrefold in the magazine’s 64-year history.
Every woman’s beauty deserves to be celebrated,” Rau, 26, told the Thomson Reuters Foundation in her first interview to the media about the feature. “No one deserves to be a woman more than those (trans women) who routinely suffer abuse and are treated like they’re less than nothing.”
The Playboy feature comes as transgender models are becoming increasingly visible in fashion brands and media.
The decision to feature Rau sparked debate on social media, with one man commenting on the magazine’s Facebook page that “this was the last straw, sorry but I like my women real, not 500 surgeries later”.
“There will always be trolls,” said Rau. “But if I can help others to love themselves then it’s worth it.

as for this child.. yes he has an older sister...by 2 years I think...
I dont seriously know all that much...as the mum doesnt bring it up.. all I know is he is still inclined that way...
I believe they tend to ignore it...he looks just like a little boy racing around when I have seen him...but likes nail polish for every day wear..
he isnt making any sex demands yet as far as I know....all I am saying is...would repressing these urges make them go away/???...
Perhaps I shouldnt have discouraged them?
Do you think I've repressed their urges and the reason they spend so long in the dunny now is that they're secretly choking a darkie into the shape of a crayon and writing down the next thesis on overcoming SSD (shit smearers discrimination) to be pushed out the bowels of LaTrobe?
positively disgraceful comments....I refuse to deal with you anymore.....this isnt in sparta...
Theyre both behaviourial and anti-social. Why should one get a free pass and encouraged to revel deeper until a behaviour becomes a habit?
But I can see that thinking deeper than the puddle of urine that forms involuntarily at your feet sends you scurrying for a safe space, so you might want to grab a towel if you want to keep reading.

Did anyone see this huge hulk Mouncey on tv last week? Towering over the real women and whining about not being able to play?
