Donahue (1989)- Transvestites and Transsexuals 

This was one of the best panels representing the various ways one may be or can express as the opposite sex. The guests were all so tolerant of the audiences sometimes "offensive" questions, and the audience, despite their ignorance, were genuinely curious and understanding. Donahue was really the best at increasing understanding of multiple social and human phenomenon.

at least donahue helps ppl understand certain topics. this topic would help ppl understand what Gender means behind Closed doors.

11:36 I realized at this moment, what if the doctor pronouncing the gender of the baby just writes “hermaphrodite” on the card… instead of having to assign a gender?

Only Donahue could present those questions so eloquently.

This was a good episode! Phil was ahead of his time. He was such a trailblazer! RIP Phil Donahue 🙏🏼❤️

I did not see this Donahue episode back then.I perceive a lot has changed-about the issue discussed on this segment-since then...........

Theres actually a few good questions that could have been bwtter answered with a view to educate, if theyvhadnt been askedcin such a mockibg demeanour by audience members asking questions that they dont even care abiyt the answer. Theyre just tryna get seen on TV utteri g tbeir little party peice like theyve just thought it uo themselves

80’s gold I love talk show crossdressers

I didnt see any of these when they came out cos i was only 10, but i well remembervthw show being listed on the TV guide at thevtime. But as a TS woman, who has toiled for years with ny own gender, seei g some of tbese shows, i wish i had seen them back at thr time. . I think it may have expmained a lot of tbings and msybecid hafe come to terns with being transsexual much sooner. But at age 10, "Boring Adult talk" and the News was rheclastvtgingvi wanred to watch. I recall watching a few debate shows in highschool but unfortunately none on the topic of gender or Transsexual issues or questions. I think it eould be highly veneficial to pupils to be shown more stuff like this. Its educational and at least educates people to the differences betwwen TS, TVs, CDs abd Drag Queens etc. I dont see any sign of trying to influence anyone into being Trans or haviing their minds poisoned

great topic.thanks luv Donahue

So in 1989 there were only 10k transexuals in the U.S. and now there are nearly two million!? 🤔🧐

They couldn’t even do this show today. All the woke people today that would be so offended at some of the innocent questions.
