Jazz Jennings, a South Florida teen, was assigned male at birth. Aged 5, Jennings was diagnosed with gender dysphoria in childhood, making her one of the youngest publicly documented people to be identified as gender dysphoric.[3] Her parents, Greg and Jeanette, decided to support her female gender identity by her fifth birthday. Jazz has been in the spotlight since 2007, when at age 6, she did an interview with Barbara Walters discussing her gender identity. She did follow-up interviews, launched a foundation, and co-wrote a book, also called I Am Jazz. She has also posted videos about her life on YouTube.

I Am Jazz focuses on the "Jennings" family (the surname "Jennings" is a pseudonym, and any reference to the family's exact location is obscured)[4][5] and their day-to-day lives. Jazz, who is about to go into high school, grapples with the usual teen angst in addition to her own challenges as a transgender girl. Her family, which includes her three siblings, parents and grandparents, also talk about their experiences.[2]

Did i mention your mum? Why take it personal? I'm free to comment and air my opinion on nairaland. What is the problem with Nigerians? This is the freedom we are saying. Go and rot for all i care. That is why the country is still in the same problem since 1960.. mtcheew. The America that legalize it, its their dollar that our companies and banks are spending if you dont know.

The point of my post is that this Legalize gay or not trash is not the country's problem. Legalize it and allow those who want it to get it. It does not mean everyone should do it does it?

And they would be carrying B.SC and M.B.A like they went to school

And for your info, it would still be legalized and it would be shocking that it may be in this Buhari's regime. If not the next regime but very soon Believe me. The world is evolving. No one cares about your culture or your religion or your belief. All we care about is what we want for ourself.

What i want is $1 = N1 for my business that is my concern so the gays can gay as much as they want its not my business. So face your own business and leave the gays alone. Thats it.
so legalizing gay will boost our economy

Excuse me, why should the show be cancelled? This is democracy and there is freedom! Even freedom of watching film! undecided

Besides, is it DSTV that is airing the program or the channel TLC? If the Channel TLC continues to air it, what is DSTV going to do? To my knowledge, DSTV is not a channel but a bridge between our TVs and the Channels/Stations. So if TLC continues, it means they would remove the TLC completely? Someone should make me understand please.

And this is nonsense! Why not stop Airing I am Cait! Which is a transgender show on E! undecided undecided Nonsense.

And what about the multiple gay and lesbianism shows airing on the internet/website/media websites that millions of Nigerians are watching? God help Nigeria i become president! undecided All these bullshit will stop! I would legalize everything

In 2023, I'm running for presidency grin

"Our Video of the Week, Nigerian Men Tattoo Their Lips Pink! got us thinking about perceptions of physical beauty. In it, we’re taken to a parlor in Lagos, Nigeria and see a man getting his lower lip colored in light pink. He barely flinches as the tattoo gun buzzes on his lips. According to the parlor owner, “We help out those with black lips, to clean their lips and make them pink”. The procedure can cost anywhere from $30 – $50, and is reportedly a growing trend among Nigerian men."

On Monday, October 26, the National Broadcasting Commission (NBC), has directed MultiChoice not to air a particular homosexual programme titled “I am Jazz”, which has just been introduced by the cable network.



In a statement released by the director of public affairs of the NBC, Mr. Awwalu Salihu stated that the programme is a mini-series about a transgender child and is capable of corrupting the youths as it is also at variance with Nigerian law which prohibits homosexuality.



He said “the attentions of the NBC has been drawn to the concern raised by some members of the public about some alleged plans by the TLC Channel on DSTV to begin airing a programme, I am Jazz, which is about a transgender child. The commission has drawn the attention of the service provider to this concern and has received firm assurances that it will investigate and if it concerns that the programme is indeed promoting undesirable ideas that will offend the Nigerian public.”



Due to the complaint of the programme, MultiChoice has immediately complied with the directive of the NBC not to air the controversial mini-series on DSTV.



A representative of DSTV in Abuja disclosed that they are aware of the new development adding that their interests will always be considered.


“We take comfort in knowing that our decoders are encrypted with the parental control feature that empowers parents with ultimate control over what their children view. We also encourage parents to make use of this feature as much as possible to ensure that their children only watch what their parents deem appropriate.” They said.

However, parents have also disclosed their disgust on this development by making their voice heard via the social media platforms.


http://www.newshelm.com/2015/10/homosexuality-movie-banned-on-nigerian.html

This Multichoice guys are trying to be smart. Why should a parent need to use parental features for a show you claim is for children? Why put such crap in a children show in the first place? Soon they will show game of thrones on disney and claim parents should use features. Rubbish!
