Caitlyn Jenner: ‘I Get More Flak For Being Conservative Than Being Transgender’
Daily Caller ^ | 2/18/16 | Kaitlan Collins

Posted on 02/18/2016 12:35:42 PM PST by nickcarraway

Caitlyn Jenner said he catches more hell for his conservative views than for transitioning into a woman.

Speaking to a group of students at the University of Pennsylvania Wednesday, the 66-year-old said he's constantly criticized for his conservative views.

'I have gotten more flak for being a conservative Republican than I have for being trans,' Jenner said when a student asked why he wasn’t a Democrat.

After Jenner told Diane Sawyer that he was, 'for all intents and purposes,' a woman in April, he confirmed that he’s been a lifelong conservative.

'I've always been more on the conservative side,' Jenner told Sawyer.

Can someone explain to me in what way Jenner is a conservative?

Simply voting Republican does not make you one.

Flak is a contraction of German Flugzeugabwehrkanone [N 2] meaning “aircraft-defense cannon”, the original purpose of the eighty-eight. In English, “flak” became a generic term for ground anti-aircraft fire.

Probably from conservatives who remind him that his behavior is not conservative.

To the writer of the article, thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!, for using the correct pronoun when referring to Jenner.

So refreshing!
