Bruce Jenner

Didn't know if I should post this here or in the Locker Room... (the No. America board may be the least visited board),  anywho...

 

Bruce Jenner has been a regular in the gossip rags for years & especially in the last year. It has been undeniable lately that he has been transitioning: showing up with painted nails, highlighted hair & a tracheal shave. He has had shaped eyebrows for decades, I suppose none of this has been lost on this crowd here, even though he has denied this throughout.

 

So apparently his recent appearances with the nails, earrings & hairdos has been part of a slow reveal. It has been all but formally announced that he will do a docu series on his transition, he will be in charge, not the dimwits he married into. He is scheduled to do a network prime time interview this spring, I suppose he will announce it then, no one has said anything official yet.

 

I noticed his eyebrows & hair back in the 80s & just assumed he was a crossdresser, or gay, but the last couple of years he has really committed, going by his looks. I feel a bit sad that it took him so many decades to come to terms with this, he'll become an older woman right off the bat missing any chance at being young & hot, but I think it's great that he has the strength to finally commit with everyone watching & commenting on his/her looks going forward, that can't be easy.

 

But more important I think this event & the tv series will be a watershed event in bringing the issue of transgenderism right into everybody's living rooms. It has been growing bigger for the last decade, first with the underground success of tg porn sites, RuPaul as a pop star & the gradual acceptance of tg themes & actors in popular media. This however, is a mainstream sports champion who was on the Wheaties box changing his/her gender on prime time television each week, I think it will mark the mainstreaming of transgender issues the way AIDS, & Rock Hudson, ultimately mainstreamed gay issues.

 

Back in the day (80s) I thought this was such an underground & radical thing I was getting into & now it's going to be sponsored by Coca-Cola & used car dealers!

I'm old enough to remember that terrible movie Bruce Jenner stared in with the Village People (1980) shortly after he retired from competitive athletics.

Hard to believe this guy was an all American hero of the 70's and with it Olympic Decathlon Gold Medalist (1976) our GB star Daley Thompson's inspiration to achieve similar.

I was just reading that quite apart from marrying into the Kardashian circus family he's fathered six kids as well.

This guy has certainly lived his life and for that I wholeheatedly

LOS ANGELES — Investigators are likely to seek the cellphone records of Bruce Jenner and other drivers involved in a multivehicle accident on Saturday to determine if any of the drivers was texting before the crash in which a woman was killed, authorities said Sunday.

 

Phone records are likely to be collected for all the drivers involved so investigators can check call and text data, Sgt. Philip Brooks of the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department said.

 

Investigators may also request search warrants.

 

But Sergeant Brooks said it was difficult to determine if a driver was texting at the exact time of a collision. Investigators will look at signs of driver behavior like multiple texts that span a period of time leading up to, or including, the crash, he said.

 

“The problem is pinpointing the time of the accident,” he said. “If the accident occurred at 12:05 and 30 seconds, or 12:05 and 40 seconds, if you hung up before that, that’s useless information.”

The Sheriff’s Department has all of the vehicles and will inspect them to ensure they are mechanically sound or whether a defect prevented somebody from stopping in time.

 

Investigators are trying to determine who or what triggered the crash on the Pacific Coast Highway. One woman died, and seven others were injured in the accident, which occurred about noon on Saturday.

 

Mr. Jenner was traveling north when his black Cadillac Escalade rear-ended a Lexus sedan that had just struck the back of a black Toyota Prius, Sergeant Brooks said. The Lexus veered into oncoming traffic and collided head-on with a black Hummer.

 

The driver of the Lexus — Kim Howe, 69, of Calabasas, Calif. — was pronounced dead at the scene.

 

The moment of impact was captured by celebrity photographers, who quickly posted the images on the Internet.

 

The photos show the white Lexus mangled in the front and back, facing the Hummer, which had a heavily damaged engine and its hood popped open. Mr. Jenner’s Escalade, which was pulling an off-road vehicle on a trailer, had a damaged front end.

 

Some initial reports on the Internet said that Mr. Jenner was being chased by paparazzi at the time of the crash, but the authorities said that there was no indication of that.

 

“Being a celebrity, he is often followed by paparazzi,” Sergeant Brooks said. “He was aware of that, and it doesn’t appear he took any evasive action to avoid the paparazzi.”

 

Authorities said Mr. Jenner cooperated with investigators, passed a field sobriety test and voluntarily submitted a blood sample to determine whether he was intoxicated, Sergeant Brooks said.

 

Mr. Jenner won a gold medal in the men’s decathlon at the 1976 Summer Olympics, but he is known to a younger generation as the patriarch of the Kardashian family.

I agree, I think this will be huge in the mainstreaming of transgender issues, and really a lot about raising awareness of gender in general.  What can really make it impactful is that this is an athelete, it's not a florist, or an interior decorator.  This wasn't somebody that was associated with femininity.  This can really do a lot about to challenge people's perceptions of gender.  It's a shame they waited so long though.

why do Americans wait until they are 60 to transition? bored? what? Willam Bendix in a wig with lipstick. Very curious.

 

I had a passing professional acquaintance with a guy who transitioned in his early 60s.  I found out later from a friend of hers that she waited until then because she was retired and her parents were dead; she just didn't want to deal with the whole "coming out" thing to co-workers and close family.  Sad to live so many years not being true to oneself.

Look at me,
I may never pass for a perfect bride, or a perfect daughter.
Can it be,
I'm not meant to play this part
?
Now I see, that if I were truly to be myself,
I would break my family's heart
.

Who is that girl I see, staring straight back at me?
Why is my reflection someone I don't know?
Somehow I cannot hide?
Who I am, though I've tried.
When will my reflection show, who I am, inside
?
How I pray, that a time will come,
I can free myself, from their expectations
On that day, I'll discover someway to be myself,
and to make my family proud
.
They want a docile lamb,
No-one knows who I am.
Must there be a secret me,
I'm forced to hide
?
Must I pretend that I am someone else for all time?
When will my reflection show, who I am inside?
When will my reflection show, who I am inside?

In which case I'm assuming your nearest and dearest know all about your interest in the transgendered species.

 

To some degree that's comparing apples to mangoes.

 

It didn't affect my day to day life in New York very much by not talking about what I did in Bangkok.

 

Let's take it a step further and let's suppose my kink was wearing lipstick, stockings, garter, and a wig in the bedroom.  Not a pretty sight and my dear Aunt Sally need not know about that.

 

Or if I got into the bathtub for my girlfriend to urinate on me.

 

In these scenarios, I wake up the next morning, put on my pants one leg at a time, have my morning coffee and life goes on as usual.

 

But if Bruce Jenner or anyone, feels they are a woman inside, something much deeper than merely a fetish, there is no way (s)he live as a woman on daily basis without coming out of the closet.

More than 16.8 million people tuned in Friday night to watch the ABC News television special in which Bruce Jenner said that he identified as a woman, according to preliminary ratings data provided by the network.

Mr. Jenner, the Olympic gold medalist and longtime member of the Kardashian family, told Diane Sawyer during the interview that he was making the transition to female from male.

“For all intents and purposes, I am a woman,” he said. “People look at me differently. They see this macho male, but this female side is part of me, it’s who I am. I was not genetically born that way.” For the purpose of the interview, Mr. Jenner said he preferred to use the pronoun “he.”

The wide-ranging two-hour interview appeared during a special edition of ABC’s “20/20” news program. It attracted a much larger audience than the average episode of “20/20,” which is about 6.2 million.

The highly promoted interview was noteworthy because Mr. Jenner is among the most prominent people to come out as transgender. He said that the transition, which has captured headlines, was not a publicity stunt.

Caitlyn Jenner toasted Father's Day with her children.

 

The former Olympian revealed Monday what she did to celebrate the special day.

 

"Great day yesterday for Father's Day. We had so much fun off-roading. So much love and support! Love my family!" she tweeted along with a picture of her brood.

 

It appears that Khloe and Kim Kardashian, along with her husband, Kanye West, and their daughter, North, joined Jenner for Father's Day. Jenner's biological children, Burt, Cassandra, Kendall and Brandon, were also on-hand for the celebration, as was Brandon's pregnant wife, Leah.
