JT Leroy Has anyone in here read any of JT's books? I just read "The Heart is Deceitful Above All Things" and it's an INCREDIBLE piece of writing. They just turned it into a movie too.
Has anyone else read anything by Leroy? | |

JT is transgendered from what I understand. So I think his high voice may stem from that. | |

FTM or MTF? there's a lot of genderfuck in 'sarah'. interesting. you know, i don't think i've ever seen a picture of him. wasn't he like a rent boy or something like that? i know he's good friends with michael pitt and billy corgan - i don't know a whole lot else. | |

MTF, from what I've heard.I've seen pics of him as a teen and he's still clearly a male. But he avoids gettings pics taken (his website has a photo of his body...but not his face). But according to several people who have attended readings, he dresses in drag quite a bit. Then again, there's a rumor that JT is really a woman dressing as a man. No matter the truth, JT is the modern pinnacle of genderfuck. | |
