Transgender Soap Opera, Another Reason Not To Watch?
All My Children is the one soap opera I watch. “Why?” I’m sure you want to ask. “Because I’ve watched it since the first day it first aired…and I don’t even want to tell you how long ago that was.” This is a first for AMC:
trans‧gen‧dered –adjective
1. appearing or attempting to be a member of the opposite sex, as a transsexual or habitual cross-dresser.
2. of or pertaining to a transgendered person or transgendered people: the transgender movement.
[Origin: 1990–95]

NEW YORK - In a story unusual even for a soap opera and believed to be a television first, ABC’s “All My Children” this week will introduce a transgender character who is beginning to make the transition from a man into a woman…
…There have been a handful of post-surgical transgender characters in television shows, including a college professor in the 2001 prime-time CBS series “The Education of Max Bickford” and a model in the short-lived ABC soap opera “The City” in 1996, according to the Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation.
