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.

Remember.. he isn't homosexual.... He's now a lesbian.

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.

Geezerette, I tend to agree with you. I'm wondering if Bruce Jenner thinks being a woman means getting yourself all dolled up in glamorous clothing and makeup and getting your picture on the cover of a major magazine. Considering the women who seem to have surrounded him for several years, I can see why he would have that mistaken impression. I do not know the statistics regarding how many men undergo a gender change each year but I'll guess there are dozens, perhaps hundreds. I wonder what they think of Bruce/Caitlyn Jenner and the way he's approaching it? Or should I say the way he has the $luxury$ of approaching it?

I agree with this too... He doesn't have a clue about what it means to be a woman..
 
Until all genders receive parity, attention is needed. Some of comments posted on this thread clearly illustrate how illusive gender equality is, and how important exposure remains. Were the suffragettes who marched for Women's Sufferage, attention whores? You bet your butt they were, and I am THANKFUL.
 
April, you got it! Also, many don't like having their definition of what constitutes womanhood questioned/threatened. Caitlyn is one of the sisterhood now, and I will defend her as such against any and all mean spirited remarks from those who proudly sail the good ship Self Righteous across the Sexist Sea, out of the Port of Bigotry, led out by the Tug Hypocracy. Lol. There, I am done with this stuff.
 
What does it matter to anyone else? Not hurting anyone and may help other people living a lie come clean. ALL cover models have photoshopping and extreme makeup....I'm sure we won't see her so glammed up at the supermarket.

If I'm going to get my knickers in a knot I prefer it's for something serious.

I agree.... but to be fair... SHE is putting it all out there, so people are allowed to think and say what they please.. SHE is hardly a private person.
 
Somehow a sexy photo shoot is distracting and seems to take away from the message in my never humble opinion...

My point was that Bruce/Caitlyn is making this entire process very public, and the sexy photo shoot makes that quite evident.. as well as his upcoming reality show documenting his/her entire transition. It is very evident he... (or I suppose SHE now although "she" will NEVER be a biological woman as every cell in her body still carries the XY chromosome) , wants the attention, or she wouldn't be this public about it. No one knows what's in her heart. IS she being so open for the money and notoriety? Or is she really altruistic in wanting to be and example to others transgendered people. That's something only Caitlyn knows for sure.

To me personally, it really doesn't matter.. I don't CARE what Bruce did... or Caitlyn does. AND I certainly wouldn't get upset with someone who felt differently..or lose a friendship over it. That's simply petty IMO.
 
Fortunately the whole thing is academic for most of us. Who would want to be saddled with such an issue? So long as she has found some peace we should probably let it be...
 
Agreed!? Wow! QS, this could be a first...:eek:nthego:
