imageWow, how cool! My ”Bad Questions to Ask a Transsexual: The Director’s Cut” video has been promoted to the front page of YouTube! I’ll keep you kids posted as to what, if anything, happens because of it. I expect a lot more mail, if nothing else!

Even though I’m somewhat squeamish about the subject matter, I’ve got to say that yours was one of the most fucking awesome videos I’ve seen on YouTube in ages.

Good Evening Ms. Adams

I was just wasting time on youtube when I cam across your video about "bad questions"
I enjoyed it trememdously. I enjoyed your honesty as well as the dark humor. There are certainly a lot of people out their who's parents should have installed a filter on the gene pool before they had kids.

I wish you luck in your career and take care

You are beautiful and I really enjoyed your 10 questions. This is something I will definitely use when I teach a Gender class. Thanks for having the guts to come out and tell all those fools off!

You're beautiful, smart, funny and eloquent. I wish I could find a woman like you! I'm a gold star lesbian and I have to admit that I learned a little something watching your video on youtube. Great job!

The sky is blue because molecules in the air scatter blue light from the sun more than they scatter the other colors in sunlight!

I learned that bit of information by looking it up on the Internet all by myself, instead of bugging someone else to explain to me why the sky is blue!

Oh, and “Bad Questions to Ask a Transsexual: The Director's Cut” has already had nearly A QUARTER MILLION views on YouTube!

Congratulations, Calpernia!!!!!! grin

(But sadly, the video already has over 5,000 mostly mean & stupid comments, too!) downer

Also, it is surprising how many people don’t realize that your “Bad Questions” video was meant to be a humorous video, and that you are really not a mean and bitchy person in real life, you were just acting!

But, I think you have a right to be angry, after having to constantly put up with all the hurtful and annoying things people have said to you over the years!

Ms Adams,

I would like to thank you for your video. Not only I had a great pleasure of watching it (I love to hate morons) but I believe that everything educational left to public access can only do good. I hope that good intentioned (yet boorish) people out there took note. I had no idea that you could find yourself at the receiving end of those inquiries and I praise your fortitude for not simply losing your cool and start slapping those idiots.

Be sure that I will be a recurrent visitor of your website for now on.

Sincerely,

Toubrouk.

calperniaaddams's avatar Thank you, Michael. I think most all of the people who left negative comments would have done so whether I had made a "sweet and nice" video or my current humorously "mean" one. Those people would choose to call me cruel names and put me down no matter what I did. So I'm glad I spoke my mind. =)

I really appreciate your sense of "being", your sense of humor, and your sense of intelligence. I thoroughly enjoyed your video and your "response" to your own video. I'm straight and you made my day!
Thanks for demonstrating for everyone that there really are intelligent, tender, and humorous people out there---even though you are in the minority in those categories...

Well done!

Your video is hilarious! I think you are witty and talented. Sometimes people of a different background/lifestyle just need to bit of information to stop being rude/hateful/ignorant. So, thanks, Calpernia for attempting to educate (and entertain at the same time) the world.

You're gorgeous and hilarious Calpernia!! I have to say that this whole "because you have Y chromosomes you are a man" argument that people spout off is so silly. Humans share like 99% of our genetic material with chimps..I wonder if these dumbfucks would advocate spending 99% of their time in the jungle acting like apes??? Well, on second thought, they kinda do that already in their trailer parks..
