Any Survivor Fans?

Jeff (a gay man) just outed Zeke (a trans man) on national television. Quite shitty.

1. I gather these people volunteered for a reality show?

My goodness, who would expect personal scrutiny and potential embarrassment by deciding to have a camera crew follow them under extreme stress for a month.

2. It was a shitty thing to do

but I was encouraged by the reactions of the team mates. It has been a long time coming that people would be upset over the outing more than the fact that a team member is transgendered.

It was a very horrible thing to do but as Zeke said, he knew it could come out and was ready for that if it happened. He was awfully gracious about it, I would not have been. Everyone should have the respect that they can tell whoever and whenever they choose or not to tell anyone.

I loved how Probst just stated that it was a pretty sure thing who was going home. Jeff Varner should have gotten up and said that he quit rather than even waiting for that. I do not believe he did not know that Zeke wasn't out. How do you prove someone is deceptive by lying about being transgendered then say you thought everyone knew. Bye Bye Varner. I always thought you would sell yourself to the devil to win. I guess I was right.

3. Haven't watched Survivor in several years,

although until last fall I did enjoy watching the Amazing Race. Now I refuse to watch any show that Mark Burnett has anything to do with because of his ties trump.
