PETALING JAYA: A transgender activist has demanded an apology from TV3 for airing a talkshow which allegedly disparaged women and transsexuals in Malaysia.
In an open letter to the broadcast station, Jellene Eva expressed outrage over the episode "Pondan Ancaman Wanita" (Effeminate Men A Threat To Women) aired on the Wanita Hari Ini talkshow on Oct 4 for accusing effeminate men and transsexuals for "stealing" women's husbands and jobs.
