Fresno High School students selected senior Dan Abril as prom king and senior Corissa Compos as queen. So what, you say?
Among the contenders vying to be crowned prom king was tranny Cinthia Covarrubias. While the senior was perfectly happy to be in the spotlight a few days ago when (s)he said (s)he wanted to "break a barrier for future transgender students," The Fresno Bee reports that on the Big Night Covarrubias sicced Fresno Unified School District Assistant Superintendent John Marinovich on TV camera crews to tell them to buzz off:
"She and her parents do not want to be taped, or interviewed, at all. She feels strongly enough about it that she came in through a back entrance. I hope you won't spoil the evening for her."
One parent, who feels that Covarrubias spoiled Prom Night for everyone else, tells The Bee that "the world is getting too politically correct":
"It puts [the students] in an awkward position. I don't have a problem with her sexual identity. Tolerance has grown, but why does she need to make things awkward for the other kids? There's a time and place to make a stand. To me, this isn't it."
For his part, Michael Martin, a junior, did not vote for Covarrubias, because a shemale prom king is "creepy."
In a nutshell, yes.
BTW, I just looked at Drudge and did not see a picture. Do you have that link?
Helluva song. Helluva song.
One of the best lines in a sitcom, ever.
The only way for Rosie to be “hot” for either sex is if she poured gasoline over her head and ignited herself.
Rosie is a barf on legs. If she was broke she wouldnt attract flies. Its funny what people will do for money,obviously her girlfriend has no limits.
No I did not capture it. I don’t know where he got the photo from - maybe the AP story? Maybe local TV coverage in Fresno?
OK - I’m stumped. Which sitcom? Got a link to the script?
At the end of the show there's a quick outtake where the daughter gives the clueless mom a shirt as a present that says "Shemale" across the front of it. The mom says "Thank you, darling" and the daughter excitedly says " It's a Shemale' ", pronouncing "Shemale" like "Channel" or "sha-mall-EE".
Exactly ... some need to lighten up.
This poor sickly child doesn’t have a clue.

Thanks. That IS funny.
Well, (s)he kinda looks like a guy. And is better looking than Rosie, though I can’t exactly say (s)he’s hot.
“If its true that posing as the opposite sex at a party for fun makes you a tranny guess I am one since for fun my friends and I went as the Marx brothers to a party and I am a woman.”
Hillary’s running for President as Karl Marx, does that count?
It’s not nice to talk about Hillary that way......
OK - then she’s running as Harpy Marx.
Big deal.
sad commmentary on what our nation has come to.
For how many "fun events" has your husband dressed as a woman?
