CGiii Comment
The first question is: Why make this film? What was the point? To set the record straight? To change the narrative? Publicity? What?!? Because, it changes nothing and really does come across as more self-serving than useful.
A typical rags-to-riches story...with a transitory twist and a wasted opportunity! What could have been an insight into the practical application of Gender Ideology - from someone fully immersed within its realm - isn't. Just a typical rags-to-riches story...with that transitory twist - which makes it not so typical after all.
Everyone seems to be going on about how we live in a two-tier system, those who deny we do not...are self-serving liars. They are the wealthy, they have the money to do what they want, when and where they want. The other unfortunates have to rely on a system to get what they want/need when that system decides it is time.
Kellie Maloney did not need to rely on that system. She had the 'Dollares' to transition when [and where] she wanted. There were no clinical hurdles, there were no financial concerns, there were no waiting lists...yes, there were domestic and professional hurdles...but, money talks and money appeases even the most disagreeable/unaccepting minds.
And, that is why we asked the question in the first place...a film about the easiest transition in history. To be fair, Kellie does acknowledge her fortunate circumstances...but, let's be honest, it's not exactly edge-of-the-seat stuff.
