I don’t think anyone would be able to tell she’s trans. It’s either the extreme plastic surgery or the camera that they’re staring at. She looks better than the average patient on Botched. If she thinks she’s getting copped and outed, it’s because she’s being filmed in public, and in a conservative Soviet country.

It’s obvious that Geno and Jasmine are playing it up for ratings, but Nikki seems legitimately insane. No man will sleep with a woman who acts like a teenage boy and begs for sex every ten seconds. If the catch isn’t satisfying, you don’t want the fish.

They handled Gabe respectfully enough, but TLC’s portrayal of Nikki seems offensive and stereotypical.

    Caveman 1948 I know exactly what you’re trying to push from the very first comment, second and third. Homophobia. Then you tried to pass far right debunked talking points and moving the goal posts. Transphobia. I didn’t “pull out” any cards you moron. I literally quoted YOUR info. Lol! Yes, I know full well what you were trying repeatedly to say about women and giving birth. The problem is that you’re an idiot. Again, not all women have periods, eggs, can have children etc BEFORE menopause and we are still women. Stop mansplaining shit you don’t understand and obviously failed in biology, science & comprehension. You’re not here to read what I’ve posted or what you’ve posted that backed me. You’re here simply to “win” your transphobic yada yada. You lose. Take the L and move on.

    People are staring because of the camera. It’s like on 600# when people are grocery shopping and say people are looking at them. No, it’s not everyday you see a camera crew. Everyone’s trying to figure out what’s going on.

    I agree it not bc she looks trans it’s the extreme plastic surgery and the camera crew. Also her makeup and clothes are attention grabbing I would definitely bc looking wondering if she is someone famous.

    My whole issue with Nikki isn’t her being trans or her being herself or anything like that whatsoever. It’s the fact that she waited till AFTER having sex multiple times with Justin to tell him “I used to be a man” you can tell how badly that harmed Justin’s inner self. He said he had to spend a time period questioning himself as a man and going through a life crisis lol. She did him dirty. I think had she been upfront from the start he wouldn’t have slept with her and they wouldn’t even be together. He feels morally obligated to stay now because he doesn’t feel very manly. IMO.

    The producers obviously drive the majority of the action on the show. However, in Nikki’s case, I don’t think they need to do that because she is so fake inside and out. Her behavior seems as artificial as 99% of her body, but at the same time, it’s become who she is. So I think the answer is that it’s all fake but also natural for her.

    100% no one has clocked her as a trans woman because they’re too busy marveling at the sheer madness of her face and body.

      She need psychological help so badly. Her mom has been shown talking on video call. She must be so sad about all the horrible surgeries but not her being trans.

    Honestly I can totally understand Igor’s mindset about sex. It’s a total mind fuck when you start to think about what is really happening. I’m sure it brings up a lot of questions inside a person, The biggest being ‘Am I gay?’

    I think its legitimate because her mom was able to accurately predict how Nikki behaved with no information. She must act like that a lot.

    I don’t think anyone would be able to tell she’s trans

    I knew she was trans the moment they introduced her. Or at least highly suspected it. I think it’s pretty obvious.

    I think she’s very insecure. Anyone that takes 3 hours to get ready isn’t happy with the way they look. And she wears over the top makeup and clothes. I also think she suspects that the reason Igor doesn’t want to sleep with her is because he’s found out she’s trans. They’d slept together before when he didn’t know, so I think that’s true.

    Even she found her attitude awful enough to place blame on her hormones. Even she knows she’s too much.

    She is a straight-up scammer and criminal. She was recently arrested for insurance fraud in the amount of 70k. Her boy toy is an anti-semite. Two gross people.

    I think it’s all made up for the show. She seems hellbent on forcing her sexuality and identity on everyone and is unapologetic about it. That seems more important than her relationship with Igor. And it’s definitely more important than having compassion for the people she lied to for years.

    She is mentally ill and that is legitimate. But everything coming out of her mouth and behavior is for the cameras first and for her ego second.

    I love how she’s comparing herself to a pregnant woman with her hormones as far as her mood is concerned. Yeah Nikki that’s a nice compliment and comparison. Based on the way you’re behaving I have yet to see a pregnant woman that’s so angry every second of the day like you are. lol which how offensive to say to pregnant women
