Predictable outcome but probably the least bad one. Some people will be in to a trans person, some won't. If they're not and they're also stupid they'll probably also be violent, not having it be upfront seems like it could be a bad idea for Miriam in the worst way.

As Dan Savage would say, there's no more dangerous place for a trans woman than in a confused straight man's bedroom during his refractory period

Yeah maybe but this show was just asking for a dead body, honestly

If you know certain men may react very badly to such a surprise, let's make a gameshow put of it with the surprise reveal at the end, what could possibly go wrong?
