Transgender (mis)Representation In Advertising – "Look, I can fool everyone into thinking that I'm a woman."

I'm trying to group these ad videos together and eventually make a  separate page, so I can add 'significant others'  that I find.

These first three are examples of corporate ads promoting their corporate acceptable version of male to female gender blending. Most of these representations in ads, film and other media are of androgynous young models, which is hardly representative of the ordinary trans world – and that means, they aren't really doing transpeople any favors.

"Look, I can fool everyone into thinking that I'm a woman."
