Watch: MTV Dating Show 'Undressed' Features Transgender Man
READ TIME: 2 MIN.
MTV's new reality dating show "Undressed" will feature a number of people partnered up, looking for love, including a transgender man named Blake.
"Undressed" matches different people up, puts them in a room together where they have to answer intense questions and take off their clothes. A new clip shared by MTV features Blake, 22, and a potential partner, Devlin, a 24-year-old bartender,
In the clip Blake explains he tries not to put a label on his sexuality, saying he identifies as "fluid." He also adds it can "be difficult to meet new people because they don't understand what my situation is."
Off camera, Devlin explains he often gets shy meeting new guys and ends up "friend-zoning myself."
After the two meet, Blake confesses to the camera Devlin is "very handsome... and has a twinkle in his eye."
"Blake is super cute. The first thing my eye goes to is some tattoos," Devlin says. "Major plus right off the bat."
The two then start to undress, with Devlin unbuttoning Blake's shirt.
"I'm so nervous. There are things he's gonna see right off the bat," Blake says.
When Devlin removes Blake's shirt, Blake's breast bindings.
"I see the bindings and I'm understanding that he might be a trans man," Devlin says. "And all of these thoughts are rushing through my head about what's the first thing I'm going to see."
In a teaser clip for "Undressed" released earlier this month, a gay couple is shown and one of the men asks the other: "As a gay man, how could you vote for Trump?" Check that out by clicking here.
