QuoteMy Name is Earl, for one, recently put out a casting call looking for "real ->-bleeped-<-s who are legitimately living the lifestyle."

As opposed to one of those annoying faux ->-bleeped-<-s who would ruin that bracing, documentary quality otherwise possessed by the Jason Lee sitcom.

Another call went out for a "true, attractive ->-bleeped-<-" to appear in Miss Nobody, a dark feature comedy starring Crossing Jordan's Leslie Bibb, Adam Goldberg and Kathy Baker.

Education is in order.  I truly wonder if whomever is aware of the gaffe of referring to the transgenders they seek by the tainted term '->-bleeped-<-.'
