Rachel Paoletta of MTV has a message for you if you don't think Bruce Jenner, who now goes by Caitlyn, isn't brave: she is not only brave, but just as brave as a veteran of war.
She wrote the article, titled Here’s Why You Should Think Before Posting Another Caitlyn Jenner Meme, in response to "memes" about Jenner that, according to Paoletta, spread "transphobia."
She took particular issue with this image:
Paoletta then called the picture "misleading," but did not elaborate how.
Further, she writes that memes like these are taking away from the courage it took Caitlyn to do what she did. How much courage did Jenner have? As much as war veterans, Paoletta writes.
"They suggest that one kind of courage is more valid than another — that a transgender person’s bravery is less than that of a veteran or an athlete," she explains. "When you consider the statistic that 40 percent of transgender people will attempt suicide, Caitlyn’s example of living her truth has the power to give strength to so many who feel alone, trapped or confused."

If any of you gutless military types had REAL courage, you’d come out of the closet and show the world what true bravery is.
To think some buy blown apart for his belief in freedom can compare to a man in heels and nail polish. Anyone can die KC. True bravery is in living out the life of the woman you were meant to be...
Both. Some people are happy to participate so they can keep their friends. Wouldn’t want to offend you understand. Must keep up appearances.
“Caitlyn” has not changed his gender. That is biochemically impossible. He has only changed his appearance, and that is to mislead himself and others. Those who align themselves with it may be artistes, but they are not realists.
Kids, the 'M' in MTV used to stand for music and they actually had influence.
““Caitlyn” has not changed his gender. That is biochemically impossible. He has only changed his appearance, and that is to mislead himself and others.”
Needs to be force fed to the world in the Clockwork Orange chair.
More compelling evidence that this election is the final defensive line to reset our judeo-christian culture, and even that may not be enough before another global dark age occurs.
Ditto. Is why I and my family have quit watching the MSM, we do watch BBC on PBS but we know what they’re like so no problem;at least they show world news. We get our news via internet news sources.
When I see a MAN like Noah Galloway, I have to give GOD thanks for heroes him. What a inspiration Noah is for America. He has lost so much in service for this country, yet he has not given up. Poor Jenner will never be a hero like Noah. If I ever meet Mr. Galloway or his parents the meal and drinks are on me. My son is a Marine, and when I see Noah I can’t help but worry about my boy. Shame on MTV.
LOL. Funny, but true.
The last thing I watched as a TV owner was Dale Earnhardt’s crash. Since then it’s been internet, selected DVDs and Video games.
When I have a Dr Appt. and have no choice, I cannot believe people pay $100 and up a month to the DNC for this. It was bad in 2001. Today it’s no wonder people are retarded. Literally retarded.

Substitute the word Communist with “Liberal and see it it does not apply...
June 6th 1944.
Picture brings this to mind. The biggest invasion flotilla in history. The Allied landing in France.
“This is good. Seriously. People need this in their faces so they understand the evil of liberalism.”
Amen to the above comment. Bruce Jenner suffers from a mental disorder. Then again, liberalism is a mental disorder.
The notable difference is that now the DOJ and State Dept are being led by communists with no resistance.
Whatever do you mean? Didn’t we intentionally elect the people that promised to work with Obama...Oh wait...
That was a bad idea huh.
We use OTA and get what we want for free. Don’t care about those other 999 channels with nothing to watch.
no... THAT is brave
don’t you know bravery when you see it?
/eye-rolling-sarcasm
Back then with a mere 500 or so channels in Vegas, I found myself endlessly flipping channels and never staying on anything as it was all so bad. Eventually I realized what a waste of time and money it was. To say nothing about the complete lack of entertainment.
And today those shows are King Lear/Hamlet in comparison.
