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.
This is interesting to me as well. Its deception for sure but not classified as rape because of a lack of coercion. Now there’s a new term, deception rape but it’s super narrow. There was a case years ago (?) and I THINK they were able to use that because of an age gap, grooming and inexperienced person. (This situation) I didnt keep up with the outcome and I’m not finding it on Google. It was one of those Google daily news feeds I had seen.
