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.
Jenners 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 Jenners 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 someones sex is a good or a bad thing. While no doubt great care is taken to ensure that appropriate patients undergo gender reassignment, theres still a large number of people who have the surgery but remain traumatizedoften 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.

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.
Ping for later
I read here that a pear can think he’s a broccoli but, is still a fruit.
Vewy twue.
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.
