Jenner had no choice, really, but to come out publicly. If she hadn't, the press and tabloids would be hounding her to death, and framing her transition as a dirty secret that she was trying to hide. This way, Jenner has control of the story and can come out on her own terms.

You can blame the gossip hungry public, including yourselves, for the media saturation. I mean, you're participating in the discussion, so obviously you care, and this is why it is news.

So now he's a lesbian? ( he said he still prefers the pronoun "he") Dude seems seriously confused.
I hope this works out for him /her. He seemed really miserable the one and only time I watched the Kardashian show out of morbid curiosity.

The news says that "Caitlyn" is not more popular than Barak Obama in terms of how fast his twitter has grown.

Here is Jenner from other days, appearing in a movie with the Village People. Circa 1980. Who would have known?

I don't think the doctor that declared me a male at birth asked to see my chromosomes either.

All mammals genders are determined this way. Biologically Bruce will always be Bruce.
If he wants to live his life as the opposite gender, than so be it. I certainly don't care.
WHAT DOES IT REALLY MATTER?? He's been tormented for his whole life, as are so many others, and I hope they ALL get to be who they 'feel' they are in their hearts and people will support them! I wasn't born a true redhead, but let me tell you, my whole personality changed when I changed my hair color TO RED 30 yrs ago! I tried going blonde, but it lasted 24 hr and I went back to RED. It 'fits' me, I feel different as a redhead and I have XX chromosomes.
GO! Caitlyn! Spend what time you have left on this planet in the body and clothes that make you FEEL GOOD!

Being male or female on the outside isn't the same as being male or female on the inside.

Sexuality and gender are points on a spectrum not two different states of being as you seem to believe.

I am 61, old-fashioned, and going out on a limb here, but I think this whole thing is really disgusting.

Before I continue, I have nothing against TRUE transgenders, transsexuals, homosexuals, bisexuals, or anyone living a sex life different from the norm. However, I just doubt very much that Caitlyn-formerly-known-as-Bruce was/is truly transgender because if s/he felt s/he were really and truly female (on the "inside at least) from at least adolescence, how could s/he have fathered six natural children (unless they were adopted or a result of IVF or some other scientific procedure, which I did not see noted in the Wikipedia bio)? Unless I am mistaken, this means that he had to have have been aroused by his wives to the point of having more than one erection during the course of his adult life.

If someone truly is born with some kind of gender "mistake", I am sincerely sorry, and I have pity for that person. But I just don't see how that could have been the case with Bruce/Caitlyn. I just think is just one seriously messed up dude/dudette and that s/he was very selfish to put his/her kids and wife through his/her transformation and all the accompanying publicity.

If anyone wants to educate me, fine. I readily admit that I am VERY far from an expert on this topic.

Yes! Good for you Bruce, now Caitlyn. I don't care where you pee, or who shares your bed. Be happy.
