If you're not comfortable; it's your problem. This woman is who she is! If you're uncomfortable, go see a therapist. I'm so tired of people projecting their own fear and discomfort on others. So what she's not heterosexual or homosexual; grow up! The world is full of diversity, she may be a very sweet and loyal friend! Open your mind, think outside the box and for crying out loud, live and let live!

The fact of the matter is that diversity is alive. You may not like but its true. I am sure that there are many of you still living inside a box. Why don't you step outside for a minute you may actually learn something. You may not agree with her choice,but at least she made the choice to live her life on her own terms. Instead of degrading her we should encourage her for having the courage to follow her dreams. KEEP YOUR HEAD UP AND GIVE THEM YOUR BEST.

If they allow a transgender on that show. Their goes the ratings and their goes the show. I would expect to see Tyra Banks jump ship, if she found out one of the contestants is a transgender. Even the Fashion industry would not want to deal with a transgender model.

Actually Tyra dedicated an entire show to the transition of a very beautiful Texas girl and her boyfriend. They started with a solid introduction of her and her boyfriend and her family, moved on to the surgery then post surgery with the announcement of her engagment. Tyra gave this subject a very professional touch in a very non-judgmental way. WAY TO GO TYRA!!!

Was that a serious question...where is she going to live????
She is a FEMALE and will live with the other FEMALES!!!!
Belive it or not she also uses female bathrooms and I am sure you have encountered a transgendered person such as Isis in a bathroom without realizing...OPEN YOUR MIND!

That was a rude and ignorant thing to say. You obviously must live in a 'box'.. because you certainly think from inside one. It's obvious the fact that you'requite insecure with yourself, as well.. and are most likely the jealous sort.

Oh boy, I can hear all the insightful conversations at the model house around this. "Well are you a boy or a girl" "so what about your equipment?"...Brace yourself. And you know someone is going to freak out about sharing facilities.
Lots of cringe worthy moments coming this Fall! Wheeeeeeeeeee!

If a person's apparent gender is wrong, I don't see it as being any different from other birth defects; correcting it is the right thing to do. Good luck, Isis.

I can see a number of biological female models start freaking out over the prospect of sharing a space with a he/she or IT. Just watch the biological women start bashing the he/she because he's not a she and he has his original DNA.

This is a non topic. For one reason and that being transgendered is not a defect so Isis shes her self as a she and not ever as an IT. Bathrooms are seen as a touchy subject cause of the vulnerability that exists when we are in those areas, not as sexual territories.Any and all conflicts can be arbitrated between the contestants and Ms. Banks all of which are adults. If she meets the requirements of the show and was selected then its a done deal and I am sorry if the constitution interfered with that. Would you insist on leaving the hospital if you had a transgendered ICU nurse? Or a transgendered OB/GYN doctor?

Just wait until the biological women models find out that this so called she is actually a he. I can't wait to see the Jerry springer style cat fights unleash on that show.
