f*** caitlyn Jenner's stupid gender conversion s***

Edit: I'm pissed here ^ at her and her situation in particular not transgender people as a whole

Why is she winning a courage award? Is it the first time someone has been turned into a girl? No. Is it more respectable than competing in competitions with literally half a body? NO. Is her conversion stupid? Yes

Why is this hitting the news like crazy while Akon getting solar power for Africa is barely making the news?

It's just a science project that a famous woman went into for publicity and now she's getting the worlds attention and praise which is not right imo

You realise you can criticise the way it's been covered without being discriminatory to transgendered people right? I agree with some of your sentiments about how it's been covered (she's not the first person to do it, nor is she the first person to do it publicly, it's (it being the story) only getting this coverage because it's linked to the Kardashians).

"f*** Bruce or Caitlyn Jenner or whatever the f*** it wants to be called's stupid a*** gender conversion s***"

This ^ is unnecessary.

Ever have a conversation piece that you wish could just be banned from the internet for at least a day? Yeah. This sums up how I feel about this topic.

I'm not trying to discriminate against them. I'm only pissed at her and his situation in particular

I fixed my post here and there and realized it was offensive to transgender people as a whole probably because I was so pissed at her. My bad

Why are you pissed at her for the way everyone else is reacting to her life?

When she won the award over that other guy (me not knowing the other guys name tells a lot about the media), it reminded me of this post on tumblr. It basically said that soldiers risking their lives was brave, but that a lesbian couple kissing in public was "true bravery". They both require bravery, but risking your life for your country requires much more.

I'm convinced that the only reason she won was because she was famous. There are lots of transgender people (though in the grand scale, barely any), what makes her any better or braver than all the others?

Caitlyn Jenner is brave.

Other transgenders are brave.

Soldiers are brave.

Lots of people are brave. It's not a contest, and one person being brave doesn't devalue the bravery of another.


P.S. it'd be cool if people remembered to use the right terminology. Caitlyn is a she, stop being c***.

Yeah, accidentally referred to her as a him in the last paragraph, my mistake.

P.S. Why is this in the spam section?

Being a positive role model for other transgender people is not a bad thing in the slightest. I personally believe it is something that should be celebrated. What other celebrity has come out as transgender after being known as the other gender for the vast majority of their life. She is basically saying that you should be proud of who are you and that there is nothing wrong with it.

Insensitively calling her Bruce is just wrong.

Take this for example:

Posted Image

Even if you do disagree with the publicity and such - which is probably due to the Kardashians, but also to an extent due to her Olympic achievements earlier in life - you can still show the respect to call her by her actual name and using the correct pronouns. Making a few mistakes here and there is fine, I understand it happens. But purposefully doing it is wrong.

P.S. I'm a good friend and went through and fixed all of your posts. Also moving this to Talk About Anything as it is something I don't think we should really be joking about at this stage.

Bruce turning into Caitlyn doesn't show as much courage as people who actually deserve the courage award. You think she deserves that award more than the guy in dancing with the stars who is missing two limbs for example?

Actually, I would argue that yes, she does. The transgender community got next to no recognition prior to this. Coming out as a transgender takes an insane amount of courage. If I was trans, I probably wouldn't have the guts to come out to the entire world. The trans community is one of the most hated communities in America right now because people just don't understand it. Being gay is one thing, but being trans is something else entirely.

In my opinion competing in competitions even at death's door(Lauren Hill) or when you have lost two limbs in war(Noah Gallaway) is far more courageous. I understand it's a different type of courage too but still. To each their own I guess. I just don't think it's fair that Jenner is getting my this much attention. It makes me feel like noah and Lauren's courage don't mean much

It's gotten to the point where it doesn't have anything to do with courage. Akon is getting solar energy for millions of people in Africa but barely anyone even knows because apparently the Olympic champion and kardashian family member still doesn't get enough attention and I think that's bulls***

You are literally missing the entire point of what Sousen was saying.

It is a very irritating subject, I think. Everyone is talking about it.


I feel everyone deserves to be happy and treated with respect, but I don't think we should force people to "agree" with it like everyone seems to be doing. I support the LGBT community, as I don't see a reason not to, but if someone disagrees I'm not gonna condemn them. I feel everyone is entitled to an opinion, regardless if it's unpopular or the reasoning for it is irrational. Forcing people into thinking a certain way is stupid. If Jenner is happy, that's really all that matters here.


On the topic of courage, I think it's hilarious everyone is turning it into a competition. Is what Jenner did courageous? I'd say so. Are soliders courageous? Yeah, but neither is more courageous than the other.
