Bruce Jenner was once hailed as the greatest athlete in the world and later became a reality television star with one of the world's most famous families. Now, the former Olympian is revealing a secret that has caused him turmoil for decades.
"For all intents and purposes, I'm a woman," Jenner told ABC's Diane Sawyer in an exclusive interview that aired Friday in a special two-hour edition of ABC News' "20/20."
"People look at me differently. They see you as this macho male, but my heart and my soul and everything that I do in life -- it is part of me," Jenner, 65, said. "That female side is part of me. That's who I am."

He did not say he wanted to create a new normal. He expressed how he felt. How he felt psychicly BETTER when he was briefly “a woman.” He just wants to blend in.
He made himself do this publicly to save young lives. He’s 65. He knows young people are struggling with this, and he wants to give them hope. He does not know what it will be like after he transitions, but I’m sure he will share that as well. He didn’t want to die and have not done something to help others with this.
We need to accept, love, pray for, and try to heal people with brain conditions just as we would for people with diabetes and heart conditions.
That has always bothered me. Why he had that hairstyle.
I agree, Jesus taught me to be compassionate. I was thinking about this last night after seeing some of the interview. I wish this troubled man peace.
I’ll say I wish him peace, but I also wish he stop using himself as a tool to advance the LGBTQ agenda.
Oh, pardon me, if you lived near the French Quarter you’re obviously an expert.
Maybe you'd prefer a picture:
I didn’t intend to say that he was trying to create the new normal, rather that the media is pushing that agenda. Perhaps I didn’t express that clearly enough.
Yes. Send a picture of yourself when you grow up.
No, you should watch his show tonight. It might soften your heart.
This sounds like something a card-carrying member of the "Church of Nice" would say — the heretical church of the End Times for people who don't believe in the God of the Bible, don't believe there is a Judgment or a Hell or a Lake of Fire into which they may be thrown for their heresies, and don't believe it was really necessary for Jesus of Nazareth to undergo a brutally tortuous death for their sins — these beliefs are an ingratitude, a thinly disguised judgmentalism towards people who are revolted by such malignant sin as mutilating and rejecting one's God-given body.
In the dogma of the Church of Nice, everyone is really a good person and God not only loves everyone, He also loves everything they do! There is no such thing as sin! Just Be Nice to everyone, and everyone will go to heaven!
This is a materialist delusion and a pure affront to the Living God. The true Christ made a bullwhip, took it into the temple and drove out those who offended God with the whip! He knew exactly who would betray Him, and that the traitor would go out and commit suicide, yet He did not stop Judas from doing so. The Church of Nice would probably urge Judas' family members to call the ACLU to sue the Christ for that.
True Christians repent and admit that they are sinners in need of a Savior, and in fact everyone is a sinner. The only way to heaven is recognition of this fact, and to ask the God of Mercy to come into one's life and convict one of sin and help one stop sinning. Attempts to be "nice" and pleasing to mankind instead of dealing with the logs in one's own eye stink up the place of God. No one is entitled to heaven because they are too nice to call sin a sin.
Everything is wrong with that. See post 250.
Ok doctor tranny
Please enlighten us with your pathway to tranny wisdom
I can’t wait
It is better to offend mankind than to offend God.
I guess that makes a Bi-athalon rather than a Dec-athalon Olympian?
And the people who are morally offended by the promotion of this illness as something noble and sacramental deserve to be judged by Yaelle? I don't think so. It is not a kindness to call an obvious sickness "normal", or to encourage the path he is trying to take to "cure" his problem.
Isn’t it amazing
A homosexual and transgender understanding thread of our very own
This may be a first
Fresno must be sleeping
This usually gets JR. stoked
Plain and simple
The celebration and acceptance of such deviant behavior as the new norm is a bellwether of a culture in serious decline
Truly amazing the kumbaya I’m witnessing here over pathetic sexual neurosis
Weird
To anyone who has a child or a grandchild in school or on the Internet, this is a problem and a threat to the existence of a nation built on truth. Once we let go of truth and start calling men women because of how they "feel" or start calling some human beings "three-fifths of a person" because they are slaves... oh, wait.
No; that was wrong because people with Downs, etc truly are born that way. People with gender dysphoria are people who are malignantly rebellious against the idea that they may have a social adjustment disorder and are rigidly determined that there can be no therapy whatsoever except for play-acting, surgery and fascist laws that persecute normal people. Entirely different.
Demonstrating your saintly tolerance?
I caught a little of that interview last night. It was painfully obvious that Jenner is mentally sick, even apart from the fact that he has mutilated himself and ingested massive amounts of hormones.
The facial mugging, the grand, dramatic gestures, the Norma Desmond delivery...he’s desperately ill. I don’t expect to see conservatives rationalizing it and cuddling up to it, but what do I know. If you see a My Pretty Pony thread, I guess you can expect anything.
My local news, here in redneck central Virginia, carried a story last night about a local dentist, a male-—or so people thought-—who “used” to be a woman. Well, she still is, just disfigured. She (I won’t call the thing a man) said her patients and employer were fine with it, and when the story was over, the news desk folks were cooing over her courage.
This kind of perversion has become mainstream-—it’s held up as something to be cherished and lauded. Anyone who doesn’t understand how dangerous to society this is, well...they may be beyond help themselves.
