"Transgender model Carmen Carrera married longtime boyfriend Adrian Torres over the summer in Chatsworth, California.

Tonight, the happy couple's memorable day will air as part of the season finale of "Couples Therapy with Dr. Jenn" on VH1 — and it will mark the first-ever wedding by an openly transgender person to air on TV."

Sorry Ms. Carrera, but I'm finding it really hard to figure out a reason why I should care about this.

Oh, my! I just realized how prejudiced it is when people who know that I'm trans are incredulous that I have no interest in Cait Jenner's personal life! This is entirely the same thing.

It's important because it shows #GirlsLikeUs hope for finding romance, love and marriage.
I hope one day to find a man who will take me as his bride and live happily ever after.
Thank you,
