millennium April 24, 2017 Share April 24, 2017 (edited) I wonder how long those posters will be allowed to remain in place. From dictionary.com: Quote hate speech hate speech Examples noun 1. speech that attacks, threatens, or insults a person or group on the basis of national origin,ethnicity, color, religion, gender, gender identity,sexual orientation, or disability. I suspect that if the posters featured a hateful image that denied or ridiculed someone's identity on the basis of race or religion, they would be gone in a flash, and not featured with a full photo spread in a publication like The Hollywood Reporter. Even the title of the article lends passive approval of the act: Caitlyn Jenner Spoofed ... I despise Jenner, but that isn't "spoofing," ladies and gentlemen. To publicly label a transgender person "IT" is a cruel, degrading and vicious attack. Stephen King and whatever studio is releasing "IT" ought to slap a cease and desist on the so-called artist and if possible seek damages, because now their movie and its imagery are linked to a vile and hard-to-forget display of hatred and bigotry.

I don't mean to "blame the victim," but it was only a matter of time until she experienced some backlash.

She states an opinion and then walks it back, constantly (whether she sees herself as a "woman" or "trans woman") Biggest regrets are about family. Her younger brother died when he was 18? How'd I miss that? She dated Kris Kardashian to "find cover" from pervasive rumors of her cross dressing. So how did Kris not hear of these, considering how well connected she was in Hollywood?

I seriously doubt Kris or anyone in the family even knew what transgender was back then. But even if they did, I can see where the natural response would be to protect Bruce. Can you image all the hate they would have gotten if he was outed? I agree, that's why I can't believe Rob Sr, didn't have some kind of a conversation with Kris when he heard rumors. I don't think he was that much more enlightened about cross dressing v transgender back then. . Even today with more knowledge and acceptance, when your own children are the ones that will be living with and dealing with this situation, you have to have some level of concern on how they may be affected. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/3221-caitlyn-jenner-call-me-caitlyn/page/39/#findComment-3217821

Shangrilala April 26, 2017 Share April 26, 2017 I had a friend once who was always super quiet and as a result got stepped all over as a kid, in high school, in college, etc. It wasn't until her late 20s that she realy found her voice. The problem? She thought that she could say whatever she wanted, however she wanted, to whomever she wanted - and it came with an air of entitlement. Like because she hadn't spoken up for so long, she now how the right to say anything and any way. Caitlyn's way of talking to everybody, especially her family, reminds me exactly of this friend. She wasn't herself for so long, she had no respected voice in the K-family, and now that she's Caitlyn, everybody just better move over. She is right, she is entitled, nobody else matters. The problem with that however is that it doesn't matter if you are transgender or not. Life doesn't work that way. How you express yourself MATTERS. Caitlyn doesn't seem to have any real concept of this. If she wants respect? It would serve her well to look at her interactions with people. Perhaps instead of saying Kris knew Kris knew, as example, it is as simple as saying "because of xyz, I thought Kris fully understood and knew." Same statement, same message. Nuance matters. 6 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/3221-caitlyn-jenner-call-me-caitlyn/page/39/#findComment-3218035

From dictionary.com: Quote The term transgender has largely replaced the older term transsexual, which is now considered outdated. Transgender is a less clinical term, referring more to gender identity and gender expression than to sexual orientation or physical sex characteristics. It is also a more general and inclusive term: a transgender person may be gay, transsexual, transvestite, or even genderqueer. In other words, crossdressing falls under the transgender umbrella. I think what you meant is that "even now, people confuse crossdressing with someone being transsexual." 52 minutes ago, Shangrilala said: now that she's Caitlyn, everybody just better move over. She is right, she is entitled, nobody else matters. I draw comfort from my anticipation that this is Jenner's final hurrah. The "book deal" is the last stop on the 15-minutes Express. Now that "all the secrets are out" she has nothing left to foist upon the public. She has no talent and she can't get by on her personality or her looks. No one takes her seriously as an "advocate." The people she claims to speak for can't stand her. The next time we see her face plastered all over the web will probably be the day she dies.

I don't know if he did or not, but because she was the mother of his underage kids, I would think he might have some interest/concern? If your ex spouse was married to or about to marry someone that you knew, or had reliable information,about their cross dressing and or gender issues, wouldn't you be concerned or at least have an interest in or want to be aware of just how this information would affect your children? Or maybe Rob Sr,was just grateful that Caitlyn had stepped up and agreed to put an end to any settlement demands that Kris had in the divorce? He got out of the marriage with I believe only child support, no cash settlement/property distribution to Kris. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/3221-caitlyn-jenner-call-me-caitlyn/page/39/#findComment-3218248

I think we will see her for at least a couple weeks, probably booked in advance by her agent to make the usual rounds selling her book. But seeing how viewers reaction to her so far is pretty negative, they might cut the tour short. She can head back to Malibu anytime if it is up to.me. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/3221-caitlyn-jenner-call-me-caitlyn/page/39/#findComment-3218280
Coffeecup April 27, 2017 Share April 27, 2017 (edited) Maybe she won't be heading back to Malibu -- she might be headed for Washington, D.C. She's considering running for office, maybe Congress. Nothing definite, just something vague she said during an interview. http://www.cnn.com/2017/04/25/politics/caitlyn-jenner-run-for-office/ "Caitlyn Jenner: 'I would seriously look at a run' for office" "Caitlyn Jenner told an audience Tuesday night that she would consider running for public office during an interview promoting her new book. "Jenner, a Republican who came out as transgender in 2015 and says she voted for Donald Trump, told a crowd at the 92nd Street Y community center in New York City that over the next year or two, she will look at where she thinks she could be more effective: On the inside of government or from the outside working with her foundation... "... Jenner, an Olympic gold medalist who previously was known as Bruce, says for years she was approached after speaking gigs by fans urging her to run for office. She told the audience with a laugh, "I've got way too many skeletons in my closet," but now, she says she has no more secrets... Jenner reaffirmed her Republican leanings, saying that she's always "believed in something called the Constitution and limited government," and that the GOP leans closer to limited government than the Democrats, in her opinion..." Some articles I saw said she'd run for the Senate, but the CNN article didn't mention anything that specific. Whatever office she'd pursue, I'm not sure she would get very many votes from Republicans (or Democrats either, for that matter).

This is a selfish, vain and arrogant individual. The spotlight of an election might appeal to her need to be celebrated, but the shine might quickly fade. Jenner claims it was what people didn't know about her that prevented running for office in the past. But today it may well be what we do know: shitty husband, shitty father, insensitive lout when it comes to LGBT issues, Trump supporter (that should go over well in California) -- oh, and her role in the vehicular death of Kim Howe (remember her?)

That's not too long, I think.Brandon and Brody didn't have a conversation with their father for much longer. I thought Khloe asked questions. Some were inappropriate and gross, but at least they were questions. I guess,Caitlyn would have preferred she act like Kim and jump right to sorting out her wardrobe and giving fashion advice? 5 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/3221-caitlyn-jenner-call-me-caitlyn/page/39/#findComment-3220273
