I know that the image that some have of transgender people has been influenced by TV talk shows, movies, and the porn industry. I hope that the stories of people like Bruce Jenner, Kristen Beck, Janet Mock, and others will help bring about a less shallow and distorted view of this very natural variation in human fetal development.

Well, I don't exactly see any TS people, per se, in pornos. "Chicks with dicks", sure, but I don't see them as TS. Maybe they're working towards it and their present state being used in pornos is helping to finance that end, which I have no problem with, neither do I see anything wrong with those that want to present fem but want to keep their tackle. As some of you might recall (we talked about it here before), I just don't like them being presented as women with dicks. I would think that REAL women with dicks, hermaphrodites and the like, would frown greatly on that title being given to those people. Or, am I being a TAD too PC?
As for the talk shows, you got THAT right, especially when it's wack jobs like the guy who CLAIMS he's a TS, but still has a full beard and uses his "normal" male voice, but wears a dress and decided years ago that he just couldn't stand having legs, so he cut them off!!
I haven't yet seen the Jenner interview, but I just heard a very short snippet of it an hour ago and it sounded like the woman who was interviewing him didn't quite get it. I THINK she said something to the effect that he was throwing his life and achievements away to become a woman.
Kristen Beck???? What?? Did Glen Beck get a sex change???
