Bravo has cast transgender model Amiyah Scott in “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” for its upcoming eighth season, Variety has learned.

The casting marks the first-ever transgender woman to be featured in the “Real Housewives” franchise, though the capacity in which Scott will appear is undetermined, as discussions have just begun.

Scott on “RHOA” will join many transgender figures on reality television, following “Big Brother” casting its first-ever trans contestant this summer; ABC Family’s “Becoming Us” from exec producer Ryan Seacrest, which documents a teenage boy’s life after his father transitions; TLC’s summer series “I Am Jazz,” which follows 14-year-old trans teen Jazz Jennings; and E!’s Caitlyn Jenner docu-series “I Am Cait,” which is currently in the midst of its eight-episode run.

I’m wondering if that’s a spelling error.

Interesting. There is no such thing as a “transgender woman.” You are either a woman, or you are not.

Not that I was going to watch anyway but ‘Oh brother’!

This is just sick. Calling a transgender (castrati) a wife?!

Kind of taking liberties with the word “REAL” aren’t they?

I like the way the Hollyweirdos take freaks and portray them as being normal. That’s some weird commie ****.

Talk about the depths of cynicism. They will spin it as a brave addition to the cast and breaking barriers and such nonsense. But we all know that it is being done only — only — to create a freak show atmosphere in the hopes that people will tune in to gawk at the freak.

If it has a transgender character or there is blatant faggotry, we don't watch it.

Again.

Ever.

I also won't watch combative, mouthy, people with an excessively elevated sense of self esteem.

I have a decent library and access to more. Why bother with that crap? I don't find it entertaining.

Everyone who watches or makes “reality” television was already a liberal, they probably had secret trannies on the show from its inception.

As if the show wasn’t bad enough. Did you see the girls’ clothing designer? He’s got more dresses and shoes than Imelda Marcos (but he’s funnier).

OK. SO Bruce Jenner gets his first “guest appearance” on the Broads of Atlanta. Yawn!

All of that “breaking barriers” stuff has already been done by the liberal fantasy story line of “The Bold and the Beautiful” over the past 6 months. One of the story lines had a male surgically transformed into a woman that was so beautiful that s/he became the top model of a fashion company, had sex with the CEO, and finally married him. S/he was outed by a ruthless magazine, but the entire fashion world supported him/her.

This was beamed into how many soap opera loving skulls full of mush?

There are consequences for losing the culture war.
