Is there any group of people more misunderstood than transsexuals? Many people for years, and even today, have operated under the assumption that transsexual people were sick in body and mind and incapable of leading full or productive lives. Many regarded transsexuals as little more than a punchline to a joke or perhaps a sideshow. For years the media went along with this and ratings gluttons like Jerry Springer did little to dispell the image. In fact he wanted to make the image even more extreme and depraved to line his own pockets. While he was the biggest ratings hog at the hands of the trans community he was not the only one by far as Sally Jessy Raphael, Rolanda, and scores of others jumped on the bandwagon to keep up.
