Members Nate4 Posted June 3, 2015 Members Share Posted June 3, 2015 The amount of ignorance around me is unreal. Makes me hate living in a small little rural town. I'm so thankful I was raised by two very liberal and open minded parents, unlike everyone else in this damn town. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Juliajms Posted June 3, 2015 Members Share Posted June 3, 2015 Oh probably, but I never blame the fame whores for making money by giving the people what they want. The K's have gotten rich because so many people are obsessed with them. I'll never understand why, but they'd be fools to turn away that money. I've never seen the show, but I will admit that the nosy bitch in me is curious about the Bruce/Kris marriage. Did he hide his desire to be a woman from her for all those years? I'm sure he was cross dressing at times, so that's really hard to believe. Did she know and just marry him for the money? One of his quotes made it sound like once she had her own money she started being less tolerant of him, so I wonder. Obviously, it's none of my business, but I'd love to know.

Members Eric83 Posted June 3, 2015 Members Share Posted June 3, 2015 Don't worry there's ignorance in urban areas too. I'm glad Caitlyn was able to bring transgender issue to the forefront of pop culture. I hope many of these people aren't just hopping on a social media bandwagon and are truly for equality for all.

Members Money Posted June 3, 2015 Members Share Posted June 3, 2015 I’m trying to understand what being transgendered means and I am thoroughly confused. Bruce wants to be identified as a woman but yet he’s attracted to women and says he’s not gay. This would make him a lesbian but he denies the assertion. He says he’s a woman but has not had the gender reassignment surgery. Since having a vagina are female physical traits how can he say he’s a woman. Would he not fall under the category of being a cross dresser? If that’s the case any man can say they’re a woman because they “identify” as one. If I decided to shave my head and wear men’s clothing because I identified with being male does that make me a man? Lastly, when Bruce won the Olympics he was physically a man, now that he identifies himself as a woman folks are saying Caitlyn won the Olympics. Are we now going to deny that Bruce ever existed to accept that he transitioned into a woman? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Cheap21 Posted June 3, 2015 Members Share Posted June 3, 2015 I wasnt ready for that. She looks like a woman but still sounds like a man and has man hands Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted June 3, 2015 Members Share Posted June 3, 2015 And I think that's the point Caitlyn and others within the community are attempting to make -- specifically, that genitalia, or the absence thereof, should not define how one views himself (or herself) biologically. Caitlyn sees herself as a woman, penis or no penis, vagina or no vagina, and now she wants the rest of the world to see her the same way. At least, that's my takeaway from this. But I could be off-base. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted June 3, 2015 Members Share Posted June 3, 2015 I thought she still sounded like a man, too. Does anyone know whether penis removal and continued hormone injections would change her voice in time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SFK Posted June 4, 2015 Members Share Posted June 4, 2015 Gonad removal and hormones will most likely give her a higher voice. Her penis was not "removed" per se, but restructured into a vagina (clitoris, labia,,.). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members GMac Posted June 4, 2015 Members Share Posted June 4, 2015 So she has had the "big" surgery? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dragonflies Posted June 4, 2015 Members Share Posted June 4, 2015 I swear I read somewhere recently she hadn't started the surgery yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members John Posted June 4, 2015 Members Share Posted June 4, 2015 Yes they dont remove the penis. They just make it into a vagina. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members marceline Posted June 4, 2015 Members Share Posted June 4, 2015 Apparently the uproar is based on a hoax that said she was chosen over a double amputee vet. http://money.cnn.com/2015/06/03/media/espn-caitlyn-jenner-false-photo/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
