Although I was involved in this programme I was very disappointed as were many of my friends, which included trans people. The following is opinion from myself and friends which has been posted in the diary on my web site:
Last night I watched episode 3-Sex Change-Uncut, I was shocked! that in the main I thought it was quite awful. The dinner party scenario I thought was horrendous, it did nothing for educating the public and as a friend remarked; 'it probably gave out a completely wrong message'. For me that part of the documentary was purely 'theatrical documentary'. However, without blowing my own trumpet, several friends who also watched it, have voiced the same opinion and that at least my participation brought some credibility to the programme. Of myself, it did contain quite a bit of footage of film which was done for the original Sex Change series when I had my SRS nearly 2 years ago, however, more explicit scenes were shown this time. I was disappointed that there was nothing shown from all the filming they did at the Lesbian Diners group I attend in Manchester. It would have been good to show some of that social life of mine on the gay scene in comparison to that dinner party scenario. Nothing against the trans women who took part in the dinner party, but I am so glad I was not involved in that.
