Ok , normally I'm here just pouring over any pics of Sammy and telling everyone how gorgeous she is ... but I have a bit of a quandry today and I'm not sure if I actually hear right.
Towards the end of todays Weekend Sunrise they did a segment on an ad for Libra Tampons. The ad centred on 2 women in a hotel toilet doing their make up etc and one of them turns out to be a trannie who can do everything the real woman does ( eyes , lips , hair etc etc ) but obvioulsy falls short when it comes to using her tampons . Hilarious .... NOT.
Anyway , in introducing the segment , Sammy said that there had been outrage over the fact that the advertiser was highlighting the fact that trannies dont 'menstruate' . After showing the ad , Sammy immediately apologised for using the word 'menstruate' .
Is this for real ?
Did I hear it right ?
Is the word 'menstruate' really offensive to ANYONE ???
I seriously couldnt believe my ears .
Anyway , sorry to go on ... just really got to me this one.
As for Sammy , even in pants she is still the most stunning woman on TV in Australia , the world and possibly the known universe !!!!
Sigh .... I'm hopping back in my cage now .....

I do not think the said word is "offensive". It is a normal medical term that could be mentioned in medical segment or any social segment for that matter and the context was appropriate to use that word etc. I do remember another occasion when Sam said something about a gay couple, nothing offensive at all, just a normal observation. But she quickly clarified afterwards that she is not homophobic, as she worked in Journalism etc. Maybe Sam is over-cautious, and that is a great quality for a news presenter, she cares very much about the impact of her words and the potential ways it may be interpreted. (Hopping back in my cage as well...)

Great caps as always but the 'bra' moment was at exactly 8.30 and after lingering way too long on the 'contact us' slide they crossed back to see sammy doing her top up and giggling.
Sighhh ....
