Fox as a pronoun
Isn't it a bit irritating to read her last name over and over in the article when that name is used for a large industry or even the species? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.164.226.147 (talk) 01:57, 6 March 2010 (UTC)
- No. Following the initial mention of a person's full name, it is standard journalistic practice to refer to the person solely by his or her last name. Also, the article is illustrated by several images of the same woman, so I hope anyone reading it would realize it discusses a person and not a real fox! liquidluck✽talk 04:22, 6 March 2010 (UTC)
Photos of her right hand make it clear that she has this condition. Would it be an issue for it to be added somewhere in the article? There are numerous mentions of it on the internet, though I don't believe she has come out and openly spoken about her condition. Clearly, a reputable source would need to be found so it's not original research, but if it one was found? CallidoraBlack (talk) 00:24, 18 March 2010 (UTC)
- You mean her "toe thumbs"? Yes, I was thinking of including mention of it. Reliable sources, a few where medical experts have weighed in, have confirmed that she has it. Flyer22 (talk) 22:27, 19 March 2010 (UTC)
Adult Swim at 12?
If Fox was born in 1986, she was 12 in 1998. Adult Swim started on Cartoon Network in 2001. If you consider Cartoon Planet some sort of predecessor of Adult Swim, perhaps that would work to support the claim that she liked Adult Swim when she was 12. But if not, it's simply poppycock, like much of Megan Fox's reputation. 13-year-old boys, I'm sorry to disappoint you.
- Yes, this was brought up before. That piece of information should clearly be removed from the article. Flyer22 (talk) 18:25, 30 March 2010 (UTC)
- I've removed the information. Crystal Clear x3 08:06, 20 May 2010 (UTC)
IS She a Man or Not?
I read this in an article: Megan Fox was born Mitchell Reed Fox in Rockwood, Tennessee. From an early age, Mitchell showed an interest in both performing and women’s clothing. When having a preacher lay hands on him did not ‘cure’ him of these interests, his parents simply put him on the pageant circuit.
By the age of 13, Mitchell had already started a career as a female child performer called ‘Megan Fox’. Making her debut on an Olsen Twins straight-to-video release, the twins have kept his secret all this time.
As a sweet 16 present, Fox’s parents offered him sexual reassignment surgery, which, given their child’s career, they’d hoped to write off as a business expense. Unfortunately laws prohibit such surgery to be done to minors.
Since then Megan has been working non-stop, and been included on many Hottest Women lists in publications around the world.
They also have a picture of her with a slight beard. is this true? is she really a man? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.174.131.138 (talk) 12:04, 25 May 2010 (UTC)
