‘Real World: Brooklyn’ features bisexual MTF transgender geek, and gay Latino dolphin trainer [video]

”I’m one of those really bisexual types — I can never make up my mind…. If I had my own daytime show it would be ‘Gays of our Lives.’ … I would like to be a role model for the trans community. We are very under represented, and I think, even the people who are portrayed on camera now — you don’t have any trans people playing trans people…. Guys are stupid. I’m glad I never was one.”

”I guess I could say I use training techniques with some of the guys I date…. Animal training 101: You always want to end a session — a training session on a positive note…. So, let’s say, I had an amazing time with a guy, like, that weekend. Obviously, you don’t want to end it on a negative note. My two relationships that were longer were, um — the guys tended to be a few years older, quite a few years older.
