Booyah, quite lovely. men will feel all kinds of confused feelings but won't want to admit it and they and others will still have insults to sling. Ha, I love it, what a beauty. Go Caitlyn!

I'd respect him more if he had done the change without all the publicity. He's just an attention whore and I feel sorry for the children that "he" "Fathered".

I wonder about this too. Similar to some athletes that come out and announce they are gay. Why make a big deal over it? Just do your thing and live your life. Now if the purpose is to promote minority rights, that's another story.
 
it is Jenner as he wants to be not as he is.

Apparently so. But it's being presented as a major "reveal" and an "iconic" cover. It would take a whole lot longer than 6 weeks for him to transform from the person we saw in the interview on April 24 to the person depicted in that Vanity Fair photo.

Gotta go find a good photo of Halle Berry - not that there are any bad ones.:eek:nthego:
 
There's a video posted and she pretty much looks the same; do people really get this petty about other people's looks all the time. My gosh. We are all so perfect and beautiful aren't we even without or with any work. If Jenner didn't say anything the everyone would be up in arms about when the change took place, there would still be publicity and people making a fuss over it, so why shouldn't she get ahead of it and at the same time do something to educate those who care to understand. How emotionally devastating it is to have to live a lie and how finally being able to live free and show how transitioning might be like for those people who are going through similar.

I gather many don't care to listen to the whole story, of Bruce to Caitlyn, but only to look down upon another human being, it's what we do in this society and wonder why we are so F'd up. We are definitely not a kind society and we continue to show this in how we make quick judgments on people without their details. We will continue to just flap our mouths because we know how perfect we all are.

Nope, I'm not fun at the party.
 
There's a difference between people simply changing appearance and changing (somewhat unsuccessfully) as another sex. One problem I have is I cheered Bruce as a Olympic champion. Now he completely ruined his Wheaties cereal box cover as that. It is a lot to process. Additional thoughts. He told Diane Sawyer her was not homosexual, had no attraction to males. Now, as a female what does that mean? Also he is a Republican and republicans have not been kind to homosexuals, Transvestites, cross dressers, etal, is he now going to refute that which he has been supporting? You can alter your body but not your DNA. He is saying now how he doesn't need to lie anymore. Really? What exactly is he doing then? He's lying now about what he was born as. I am a liberal, I vote to support gay rights, same sex marriage, non-discrimination in the workplace, but I am a Democrat. How does that stack up against Ms Jenner's allegiance to a party who adamantly oppose it all? Call me a hater, a hypocrite anything you want but my message is no more mixed than Jenners.
 
I'm reminded of Germaine Greer's book The Female Eunuch. In it she talks about the stereotypical female beauty - tall, slim hips, hardly any body fat etc - and observes that it is more easily achieved by female impersonators than by the everyday woman. Not intending any disrespect to Bruce/Caitlin but just wanting to say to all the women posters - don't feel jealous of this person. Beauty comes in a plethora of shapes and sizes. And ages.

I'll make my (hopefully) final post on this subject. Bruce Jenner had a choice. He could have died a champion and hero or a media freak. He chose the latter.

Surely you jest. :lofl:

Nothing wrong with the picture - it's beautiful. Just doesn't look remotely like Jenner. If it IS Jenner, some massive photoshopping was done.....which makes it a sham.

("iconic" ? Gimme me a break) :lofl: :lofl:


....yeah Jim, I'm outta here too. It's getting almost sad.:eek:nthego:
 
I can understand if a person thinks they will find "inner peace" by living as a different sex than what they were born, but I wonder about the need to demonstrate it in such a flamboyant, exhibitionistic, narcissistic manner; implying that to be a "real woman" is to wear tons of makeup, push up bras, minimal clothing etc. , that it is all about "T&A". I think he/she just looks like an ordinary drag queen in a RuPaul contest. I guessing that it's 15 Minutes of Fame are running out.

There's already speculation that when the "Barbie" thing begins to wear thin, to stay in the headlines there'll be a "ken"to revive it.
