Physical Appearance

Carmen's "situation down there."

Carmen is a very attractive woman who displayed an obvious bulge in her pants until she had her penis removed. ^[6x1] Mac flirted with her intently before Dennis pointed out her penis to him. From then on, whenever he was with her he was constantly cautious of her waist.

Personality

Carmen is first seen flirting with some men in Paddy's. She is open about her status as a trans woman, even when people are ridiculously offensive. Carmen was frustrated Mac was ashamed of their relationship, to the point where his friends thought he was a serial killer because he was acting so strangely. After her surgery, Carmen did not call Mac as he wanted her to and married Nick instead, as he is exponentially more understanding and tolerant.

Mac approaches her, asks her about it. She owns up to it and starts to compliment his arms. He becomes enamored by her and asks to call her sometime. They hang out many times, to Dennis' disgust, because Mac wants to be first in line when she has her surgery. On one date, she tapped him on his shoulder, surprising him, as a reflex he punched her in the face, some witnesses then threatened him for beating a woman, so he called her a man for having a penis and ran away from witnesses. ^[1x4]
