I never thought I'd say this, but I don't like the way Tilda looks.

And here's the Steven Klein ed:

That male pregnancy editorial is just too much for me!

 

[Psylocke]

Well, considering this is a transgender magazine and the theme of the issue is 'Extravagance' this is really well done and the theme is certainly executed perfectly. Going solely by my own personal taste I still don't like it because I don't like all the gold and the voluminous red hair on Tilda.


I don't like the Baby Boom editorial. And please don't tell me those Baker guys are brothers.

 

[mikel]

Normally I don't mind a risky Steven Klein ed. But this ed is just too much. The closet with dildo's and the male pregnancy thing just look extremely tasteless.

Tilda Is Drag-licious!!! I Love It :d :d

Normally I don't mind a risky Steven Klein ed. But this ed is just too much. The closet with dildo's and the male pregnancy thing just look extremely tasteless.

I feel the same way...I usually love Steven's provocative eds but this feels a little bit flat and contrived to me.

 

[Bertrando3]

That male pregnancy editorial is just too much for me!

that's simply because it's a stupid idea

 

[ChrissyM]

The male pregnancy ed is definitely not for me, but I can appreciate Tilda's transformative quality...
the makeup is really beautiful on her

 

[Urban Stylin]

love the cover but the pregnant men r weird Transhispanic is also interesting

 

[BonesAndOil]

And please don't tell me those Baker guys are brothers.

They're not related.

 

[Srdjan]

I don't like the cover, but the eds are okay.

 

[madame royale]

i love it all. the baby boom ed is fine by me, it's provocative i guess and i think it's meant to make people react as much as possible but yeah i can see it being "too much" for some although the whole idea of the mag is about gender and it's ideas and all that.

 

[Shelton123]

You guys realize that trans men exist thus male pregnancy is possible and not a "stupid idea" right

 

[blueorchid]

^ Let's be real, the editorial isn't about trans men.
