    Paulina once said that this moment was her favorite moment of her modeling career, that it made it all worthwhile.

    I loved that RuPaul actually quoted Octavia's quote to Paulina when she appeared as a guest judge on Drag Race. I'm sure Octavia looked down & smiled.

      Univ Univeral Paulina Porizkova she a famous supermodel from the 80s-90s a little bit older than Naomi Campbell and the 90s supermodel clique. She was very well known European model that Octavia said was her inspiration in the movie.

    I meet Octavia at the Peers in 1982. She was beginning her transition. She had such a lovely spirit about herself and I knew she was going to be a star in our LGBT COMMUNITY. SHE WAS A VERY DOWN TO EARTH PERSON. I LOVED HER VERY MUCH. NOW SHE IS FREE...RIP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!ALWAYS,HECTOR

      You know Hector that was the same year I met miss Octavia saint-laurent. She was such a lovely and sweet person just as you state it, her beauty was exceptional, her and a few others like miss duray, Miss Dee Dee, And let's not forget the one full transexual that was well known back then with the blue eyes and very fair skin Miss Chanel with a size 4' in women's shoes. They were all stunningly gorgeous and very real looking. And that was really before the days of having surgery. May they all rest in peace. I met miss Octavia through a Queen back then known as miss scoop.

    @ekimusman2 I think it has a lot to do with the changing of the hormonal balance in a person's body. yes, it's possible to go from a man to a woman using hormonal therapy etc. but all of that HAS to take a toll on the body sooner or later. I've never seen an elderly transgendered person. I don't have an M.D., but I think that's why.

    "SOCIETY" isn't blindly "PROMOTING" anything. Quite the opposite, right? No one is promoting gender change. These people are the opposite gender, and need to do whatever to realize that to the degree that is possible. No one knows why, but they all say that they remember realizing they're in the wrong gendered body from early childhood. That's enough for me. Gay comes from biology, maybe that does as well. Time will tell.
