Bruce Jenner Wants To Change The World When He Should Change His Mind [By a former transgender]
The Federalist ^ | 04/27/2015 | Walt Heyer

Personal and medical experience indicates that switching genders will not give Bruce Jenner peace.

With the airing of his interview with Diane Sawyer last Friday, Bruce Jenner became the most triumphant, celebrated, photographed, and interviewed transgender in the world. Jenner, a longtime transvestite, now at 65 years of age is going to explore his feminine side by transitioning to female. Along the way, he hopes to inspire others.

Jenner’s interview opened a window for millions of viewers to see the psychological deliberation of a cross-dresser. Jenner shared that the emotional stress of hiding his secret has become unbearable. His internal struggle led him to the question: Would I be happier living as a full-time transgender female or should I continue living as a transvestite?

But there is reason to be concerned for Jenner’s transition. A review of more than 100 international medical studies of post-operative transgenders conducted in the United Kingdom in 2004 found “no robust scientific evidence that gender reassignment surgery is clinically effective.” Chris Hyde, the director of the research facility that conducted the review, said: “There is a huge uncertainty over whether changing someone’s sex is a good or a bad thing. While no doubt great care is taken to ensure that appropriate patients undergo gender reassignment, there’s still a large number of people who have the surgery but remain traumatized—often to the point of committing suicide.”

As a former transgender myself, I found it painful to see Jenner looking so fragile, exhibiting an uncertain nervousness throughout the interview. I see Jenner and my heart sinks with sadness; my stomach aches in pain. When Jenner said, “I want to know how this story ends, you know?” a rush of concern filled me.

Not surprising. Why should the media allow a fatality to get in the way of pushing its agenda?

Thank you. I do remember this, though hazily. I tend to get a "purple haze effect" about pure debauchery.

A lesbian trapped in a man’s body...

I noticed from pics of his Pacific Coast hiway that Bruce was driving an SUV, pulling a trailer with an off-road vehicle on it. There's still plenty of man in there, hell, I've never even owned an SUV, trailer, or ORV and I am comfortably on the male side of the ledger.

When it comes down to it, all he’s really doing is changing his clothes.

Are you forgetting about the part where he pays some butcher to chop his johnson off?

The end result is Mr. McGreg. With a leg for an arm and an arm for a leg.
