I haven't watched MTV since I was in high school, and the "M" in MTV actually remained predominant, but I've been watching the Brooklyn episodes to see how they portray her and how she portrays herself. I was a little pessimistic, since I don't think Isis from Top Model either wasn't shown in the best way by how they cut the tape together, or she seemed a little too insecure. Plus, they seemed to not show too much Isis on the show too, and focused more on the other contestants.
However, I do think Katelynn comes off as pretty insecure when it comes to her boyfriend and that whole situation, but overall I think MTV is giving her pretty much the same weight as the other characters, and I think she's being treated and coming off as just another one of the girls in the house for the most part. Overall I'd say so far her appearance on the show is coming off really good, but at the same time is this just preaching to the choir? I mean, the younger generation who predominantly watches MTV seems to be more tolerant of gender and sexual differences anyways so is this really going to be able to change too much public perception? I guess we'll see.
