So, what’d you think? Come join the discussion on the boards.
You can also watch a small clip of it on tmz.com. I’m sure someone will get it onto YouTube within the next few days.

& That was that, the whole of Betty’s scripted lines.

Now we know who everyone is. (Two scenes so far, but it’s only 1:24.)
Scene Three, 1:36PM
Wherein Jenny Boylan explains making lemonade out of lemons.
Scene Four, 1:45PM
Wherein Betty calls me an oddball, gives me props, and Jenny shows she really IS a hippie.

As it turns out, today’s All My Children was really more a tease than anything else, so another 24 hours of waiting to see how it all got edited.
TransNYC Tonight
I’ll be doing a reading and presentation of She’s Not the Man I Married tonight for the TransNYC group. Please do come, if you can.
For those of you who can’t come, apparently Access Hollywood is doing a clip about the AMC show.
All My Children
The trans support group episode of All My Children will air Thursday, March 8th & Friday, March 9th. You can find out what channel it’s on and when on the AMC website.
Betty will be on with six others, including Jennifer Finney Boylan.
Pending Hatefulness
Legislators in Nigeria are trying to make homosexuality illegal:
This bill, titled the Same Sex Marriage Prohibition Bill, includes penalties of five years imprisonment for any individual possessing or purchasing gay, lesbian, bisexual, or transgender (GLBT) literature or film, subscribing or donating to a GLBT organization, attending GLBT events, or expressing any form of same-sex desire.
I expect that if AIDS is still stigmatized as a “homosexual disease” – as it still is here in the US, depending on who you talk to – this will make treating the disease that much harder, too. & That’s of course in addition to the arrests & harassment LGBT people would expect under a prohibitive ban like that. Imagine, owning my books would be grounds for five years in jail.
Trans Partners Drop-In Group
Wednesday is the Partners’ Drop-In Group at the LGBT Center. 7:30 – 9PM. The theme this month is the partner’s gender identity. Details here.
