A transgender woman will be one of the 14 women who will compete on the new season of America's Next Top Model on The CW (returning September 3).
22 year-old Isis, a former non-profit worker who identifies herself as "a woman born physically male", will jump into Tyra Banks' grueling reality show in its 10th season. Isis, who simply says "my cards were dealt differently", was asked by US Weekly about being a role model for other transpeople and answered:
