I’m in the same boat as you. I’m quiet and apparently pretty unlikeable. But then I really don’t see what I do differently from the “likeable” quiet people at work. It is definitely going to adversely affect my career very soon.

Good to see the hateful trolls staying in the greys.

Honestly, I don’t think so. She has great skin, but you can DEFINITELY see wrinkles and texture. I have a friend who is also trans, in her 40s - but looks spectacular. It’s because she had facial hair in her previous life. Really protects the skin.

Sigourney Weaver is pretty tall... but I’m stumped. Is Christie Brinkley about 60?

Nice to see Caitlyn treated like any other more mature woman on magazine cover and gets every wrinkle photoshopped the fuck out

She actually also said:

Even many of the people working on it didn’t know the secret. Vanity Fair’s Style Director Jessica Diehl even told her staff of stylists that they were dressing Barbra Streisand because “I just couldn’t think of anyone tall. And I don’t even know if Barbra Streisand is tall, but in my mind she was tall.”

Good on Gradon Carter and his team. This was as graceful a reveal and entrance as Caitlyn could have received.

I totally agree. I don't really get the family's appeal, but they have millions of fans whose world views are going to be changed for the better by them. Trans kids get a role model and a supportive TV family to look up to, and cis kids who might have otherwise been transphobic might become allies. It's good news all…

Very well said. I am so amazed by how this whole story has played out. It has actually increased my faith in humanity!

Do you know the suicide rate among trans people? I mean seriously, that wasn’t a threat. She didn’t tell anyone. It was a real thought she had, and one that many, many trans people have.

Nobody, whether an celebrity or a politician or whatever, should be out-ed before they’re ready to be :/ If something is already in the public domain, then fine, but TMZ should be ashamed (they won’t ever be, though).

I am curious as to what the fuck else you are supposed to say if someone is threatening to do something to you that you know is going to be so painful you’ll want to die.

That struck me as well. I felt very sad reading that.

Why is there something so hilarious to me about a drunken mother in law that uses words like “prurient”?

Yes - that quote really struck me as well.

Someone in my office said, “So when is he going to transition back for higher ratings?” and I eye-rolled SO HARD and spat back, “This has to do with gender identity, not ratings! She’s not going to transition back into the body she hated just for TV!”

“I’m not doing this to be interesting. I’m doing this to live.”

Pausing for a second to contemplate the fact that TMZ’s hardball tactics could have led to Jenner’s suicide. This is not fun and games, this is dangerous stuff. I’m glad she made it through, and I join to chorus of congratulations.

I can’t believe how inappropriate the school has acted, and is continuing to act, by telling people the kid has “bad character.” Look in the fucking mirror, dickbags.
