    I voted for him not because he's a trans guy, but because he's actually my favorite by far of all the ones I bothered to look at. Just wow! :eek: Too bad he has a wife. :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

    I hope he gets to be on the cover because he will bring more visibility to the trans community. That would be awesome :grin:

    Holy sh*t. I voted for him last night and he was down by 2,000. I expected it to pick up on social media, but 10,000 overnight?

    Additionally, I have no shame in saying that I definitely voted for him because he is transgender. It would be a wonderful day when we live in a world where representation for minorities is not significant simply because they are minorities, but we don't. We live in a world where representation of certain groups in the media is essentially nonexistent. So, I have no shame in encouraging the acknowledgement of people who I know will combat that reality.

    Yes, he's super gorgeous... but he's also such an amazing person. He definitely deserves this win. :slight_smile:

    Sooooooo freaking awesome!!!!!

    I know! When I checked this morning I literally did the whole arms shooting up in the air "whooohooo". I was so excited.

    And well said, I totally agree.
