Chaz Bono overcomes shyness, controversy to dance

Chaz Bono is dancing right past the controversy surrounding his casting on "Dancing With the Stars" — and he's not even the dancing type.

"I like it, but I'm kind of an introvert," he said from the nondescript dance studio where he has been rehearsing for the hit ABC show for up to five hours a day. "My natural tendency is to go in, not show off. I get embarrassed really easily, which is something you have to get over on this show."
"Be yourself; everyone else is already taken." Oscar Wilde

I'm pleased that Chaz did dance. I'm sure some FTM's were encouraged that he did it.

It's nice to have a trans person in the public spotlight. Maybe people who were unfamiliar with the issue will see that he is just a normal person, and that Fox News is ridiculous and insane.
