Bruce Jenner and Caitlyn Jenner is the most famous man and woman on the planet. (My software balked at being forced to allow that sentence).
She’s a bit of a throwback, Caitlyn, as if time had stopped for her 50 years ago when Bruce had his first inkling that something was a little amiss in him (or should I say “a little miss” in him.)
When this month’s Vanity Fair edition with Caitlyn on the cover came out, the media had a field day dissecting her “look.” Some fans objected to this obsession with her appearance, suggesting she was being subjected to treatment men wouldn’t receive, and implying the attention was sexist. Comedian Jon Stewart won plaudits for “brilliance” when he observed, “You see, Caitlyn, when you were a man, we could talk about your athleticism, your business acumen. But now you’re a woman and your looks are the only thing we care about.”

Guilty as SIN
I'll just stick with "Mr. Jenner".
Well DUH, people. When you are a woman in appearance only, the only thing that matters IS appearance.
Sorry. Still reminds me of Buffalo Bill in The Silence of the Lambs.
What it means to be a woman? Okay Brucie when you get your first menstrual cycle or find out you are pregnant then you may tell me what it’s like to be a woman.
"Hello everybody!"
"Yes Billy, some men, but not all, and some women, but not all, have what's called a 'penis.'
Why the confused look Billy?
So what, exactly, does this do to Title IX? Does the boys' football team get double funding if half of them say they "feel like" girls? Is that good enough? I realize even asking that question marks me as an Oppressor...
I had a snarky little comment, but I think I’ll leave it to the gals.
Sharpen those claws and...
CAT FIGHT!!
Your microaggression has sent me to my safe space.
Save me some Play-Doh. I love Play-Doh. It’s good for stifling screams.
Not a woman. He is a self-mutilated male with mental problems. The big question is why society is complicit in this insanity.
So it’s sexist to discuss her appearance? Or maybe her new radically different appearance, which obviously cost a LOT of money, is the only slightly newsworthy thing about her. Let’s all go back to our discussions of the business sense and athleticism of random track and field athletes from the 70’s. Oh, yeah right, no one has conversations about that.
No matter how much some percentage of the population wants to believe otherwise, male and female are biological definitions. No amount of plastic work or surgery can change those definitions.
When the modern fairly tale is updated to “The Emperor's New Sex”, there will still be a young boy somewhere to shout out what everyone else is afraid to say, “It's a man”.
Caitlyn Jenner: “Sometimes it’s hard to be a woman.”
Jenner, with proper 24-hour-a-day supervision, could possibly hold up a tent.
It doesn’t matter how chic Jenner dresses, the women will rip him to shreds on his looks, or how he is dressed. He is in the ultimate woman lose situation.
Maybe I haven’t followed this story in depth, but did he get the sex change to become a lesbo?
