It follows the life of jazz Jennings, a transgender teen. It's very surreal and lynchian tbh.SEASON 6?! What the fuck is this show to begin with?
Season Premiere January 28!!
Ready to see Jazz's grandpa in drag and her family laughing that she has to get a lot of surgeries? Make sure to tune in!
Don't watch this thenThe part when she describes her wound. Jesus... She could have been a healthy boy with a healthy genitalia. I guess ratings are more important.
David Foster Wallace once wrote a piece about David Lynch. In the piece, he coined a new term: "Lynchian". Wallace described a Lynchian tone as "the unbelievably grotesque existing in a kind of union with the unbelievably banal."
He described a husband beating his 1950s housewife to death because she bought the wrong brand of peanut butter. "I told you to buy the JIF," he'd say as he's clobbering her to death. This, he said, would qualify as almost perfectly Lynchian.
I think "I Am Jazz" enters into Lynchian territory. The .webm above shows a simple domestic scene. The women look like average suburban moms. They're relaxing on the couch. One imagines they might be discussing casserole recipes when we cut to them. But it slowly dawns on us that in the living room, with placid expressions on their faces, they're talking about the woman's transvestite son's genitals.
Despite the obvious subtext and the producers' hope to normalize this horror, the average person is totally disgusted. Nevertheless, the viewer is fascinated. We're drawn further into this. The sheer naked horror of what they're saying, the blasé quality with which they're saying it, it creates this brutal paradox that almost rapes the viewer's basic sense of what is decent.
HELL NO!Would you guys jump in the inflatable boob house with Jazz?
I love how the surgeons are arguing. The tranny surgeon acts like she knows everything and the plastic surgeon guy is dumbfounded at what she's doing.
>why are you cutting there
>because theres a scar there
>THERES SCARS EVERYWHERE
Jazz is being mutilated
I never want to get surgery.
NOT ENOUGH SKIN FOR A LABIA
FOURTH SURGERY COMING SOON
Yeah, it's really sad. I blame the mom for it all. She's the one who encouraged it. Part of me just hopes Jazz dies in surgery so she doesn't have to suffer anymore.This poor girl...
If only people didn't give her attention...Yeah, it's really sad. I blame the mom for it all. She's the one who encouraged it. Part of me just hopes Jazz dies in surgery so she doesn't have to suffer anymore.
This shit would be going on no matter what. At least there's some entertainment from it now.If only people didn't give her attention...

i failed like every english class i ever took. i cant right shit like that. how do i use a comma? ive seen plenty of lynch films though lol. just copied it from somewhere. sorry for the disappointment.
Even if the person is truly trans i don't think mutilating their genitals will do any good. Human flesh is not like clay. These surgeons are butchering this kid. It's so sad.I cannot imagine having such personal moments filmed for millions of strangers to see.
I feel really sorry for her...and I hope the complications she suffered heal well. I also hope this shows people how serious all this is and how they shouldn't transition unless it is absolutely for certain they are truly transsexual, and that even then transition should be a last resort in order to live a fulfilling life. It is no easy path...but still worth it for some of us.
Y'all transphobes can die mad about it
When u sign up to screech at transphobes but get distracted by butt thread
Y'all transphobes can die mad about it
How many times do I got to tell you, I'm not going to top you, your mom on the other handOkay. Just stay out of the butt thread so you can concentrate.
What difference does it make if I was browsing the butt thread?Does...does this even make sense in rebuttal to what -Arcadia- said?
I think there's a difference between a transphobe and having an opinion that a kid should not have been put through this until they could make an adult decision. Just my 2 cents.
I thought she was taking hormone blockers before puberty, which lead to the problems she's now having with surgery. If she had been allowed to develop naturally, she wouldn't be having all these complicated surgical procedures.But on the other hand forcing her to go through male puberty also has long term lasting consequences. She didn't get bottom surgery until she was of age.

Ah yes, another xrans xerson in current year that is most likely a 1/10 incel that couldn't get laid so now they pretend to be a woman and threaten sexual assault on the internet. Pottery. Which one of these is you again?How many times do I got to tell you, I'm not going to top you, your mom on the other hand
