We're all suckers.
That's what dawned on me suddenly the other night. I'd just filed a column on how some social conservative writers are responding to Caitlyn Jenner's coming out as a woman on the cover of Vanity Fair. I hadn't given in to the sanctimony that's characterized so much of the commentary about Jenner and her transgender struggles, but I did try to explain why many liberals are inclined to refrain from judgment and even to celebrate this watershed moment in American culture.
And then it hit me: Like everyone who's talked, written, posted, and tweeted about this event, I've been taken in by a publicity stunt.
The guy who enriched himself by bringing our culture the sordid spectacle of the Kardashians is now a gal who's promoting a new reality show, and she's trying to ensure that it gets the highest ratings in the history of trash TV.
With the magazine cover inspiring a national conversation, a slew of banner headlines, and millions of people to follow Jenner's Twitter account in the first three days of its existence, I bet she succeeds.
But please, let's be honest about what this means. For one thing, and despite what a number of people appear to believe, it's not especially "brave." Or at least no more so than any celebrity publicizing personal tribulations in order to make money. Is it courageous when an actress who has just emerged from rehab after nearly killing herself with drinking and drugs gives an exclusive interview to a TV news magazine in the hopes of generating buzz about an upcoming movie release? Nah, it's just PR, ad copy in another form.
That's exactly what Jenner is giving us and she's doing it masterfully, playing off America's addiction

Since he now says he should wait a year before going through with the penile amputation, I bet he hogs the spotlight and rakes in as much money as he can and never goes through with the final surgery. I’m gonna bet he doesn’t have the balls to go through with it!
Are his hands now female or male?
When he urinates, does he hand shake it more than 3 times?
Maybe not wanting to let go?
How does his penis feel having his woman-side holding it?
How does his woman-side feel, holding it?
Well if he chops it off I would hope he wipes front to back
Really? I haven't followed any of this but has he said he won't go 'full Monty'?

In his big interview last month (or whenever it was) he said he hadn't gotten it chopped off, he hasn't made a decision yet if he will, and if he does, nobody will ever know about it. And he still likes women.
He's not going to do it.
Well...I guess that makes me a lesbian in a man's body.
Enough with the Bruce Jenner stories!
I would think one would have to have big ones to chop them off sadly he is a wuss and when he plays slap and tickle he will be spankin it like aman a sick man but still a man
Did Bruce Jenner’s chromosome change?
