    FINALLY someone invited one of the girls from Pose on a talk show. I love myself some Billy Porter but I wish I saw more recognition for the ladies.

      They get tons of life outside of the show though, they’re everyones stylist and makeup artist and hairstylist, allow black trans women a chance to shine without being jealous the spotlight isn’t on your for a millisecond.

      Let’s be real, it’s not a competition but gay men are more accepted than transwomen. The show depicts that in many ways. The point is that many transwomen of color opened doors but still weren’t as accepted as gay men were in straight spaces. They didn’t tour with Madonna like gay men after vogue blew up or have many opportunities in the industry period. Have we not been watching the same show with the multiple storylines that highlight this. I feel like the show reclaims their time and influence that has been ignored by mainstream.

      Hey Karloss.
      MJ, Dominique and the other Pose women have actually been on mornings show in Britain and more, but it is truly amazing to see some mainstream recognition for Trans POC.

      As a _straight_ woman, I will never be able to understand nor accept as to WHY people feel the need to use *labels* in defining others. I dont care about someones _color or sexual preference + identity_ ; I treat everyone with *respect* + I accept them as they are and for who they are - unless they decide to treat me differently. I think that people will always *hate* what they cant accept, understand, or is different than they are - and this defines THEM and not the person they project their hatred towards.

    MJ is absolutely STUNNING !!! She is a *POWERHOUSE* of an actress who always manages to bring me to tears in every episode.
    *POSE* is one of the most revolutionary + courageous shows to air on television within the last decade, featuring a stellar cast of talented actors. I hope this show will help pave the way for more LGBT actors in the future to be portrayed as _themselves_ in films, instead of casting "famous hetero actors" to play _gay + transgender_ roles, which is an INSULT to the viewer's intelligence, but moreover a slap in the face to he multitude of super-talented LGBT actors who are constantly deprived + denied the right and the opportunity to be WHO they are.

      First time I saw it, I thought I'd hate it. I was hooked right away. I won't bother to say why I thought that; will take away from this amazing woman MJ. I saw everything twice, and now that someone mentioned Netflix, I will look for it there and bookmark the series. It took me back, too, for I was on the West Coast when all that was happening on the East Coast. I did my part for the community, but it was a far cry different than New York City. I was in the Bay Area, and if anything like this was going on, it would've been Los Angeles.
