So it’s official. Bruce Jenner is now a “woman.” He calls himself Caitlyn.
Cue the social media, social justice warriors delivering the grandiose, unnecessary compliments. “Oh she’s so brave!” “We’re so proud of you!” “Caitlyn, you’re a hero!”
Listen, I don’t begrudge Bruce Jenner for wanting to be happy. Everyone wants to be happy. The problem is that with the recent, hyper-aggressive push to normalize transgenderism, we’ll no longer be able to discuss whether some decisions made in the pursuit of happiness are healthful. Because… hate speech.
Many people, including many in the gay community, think that transgenderism is a mental condition more effectively treated with psychiatry than surgery. I get where leftists are coming from; this person isn’t hurting anybody (aside from themselves), so what difference does it make? On the surface, it seems like a reasonable position to hold. One that quickly falls apart when you begin to examine it more closely.
Apotemnophilia is a fetish in which people wish to become an amputee. They find sexual satisfaction and ultimately, happiness, through the act of the removal of limbs or simulating the removal of limbs. There are websites, message boards and get-togethers devoted exclusively to the activity. As a general rule, society doesn’t consider this to be healthful. Some of us may accept it, ignore it and move on with our lives, but we don’t praise it or trot apotemnopheliacs out as heroes. And let’s be honest… most of us think it’s pretty damn weird.
Now, change that limb to a penis. If you don’t accept it, even worse, if you don’t praise it, you’re deemed hateful. The politically correct lobbyists of the day will take great care in avoiding the staggeringly high suicide rate of transgenders, they will ignore the medical reality that sex change operations and hormone replacement therapies come with a litany of very serious health problems, heck, they’ll ignore overall science.
If you choose not to do so, you will be deemed hateful. This is the playbook. Know it, learn it, expect it. Bruce ‘Caitlyn’ Jenner, will be their poster child.
Something that was discussed on this week’s podcast, and something that I find to be an incredibly interesting point from Milo Yiannopoulous, is that the entire leftist theory on which transgender acceptance is based, forces leftists into a rough juxtaposition to begin with.

See, if it’s truly possible that a male body can be born with the wrong brain, or that a female body can be born with a male brain… it forces the left to concede that gender is not merely a product of societal construct, but biology. If, in order to avoid classifying transgenderism as a psychiatric disorder, we’re required to recognize the inherent biological, scientifically measurable differences between genders… that creates incredible contradictions for feminism, gay rights progress and ultimately, yes, transgenderism.
Send your hate-tweets to @Scrowder and I’ll be sure to do very little about them.
Not just the economy....for the entire regime.
Wait, you mean... oh no... damned liars...
That sort of rule out Bruce J ... he wants to be a lesbian.
SO WHAT IS THE FREAKING DIFFERENCE BETWEEN MY HYPOTHETICAL & BRUCE JENNER ?
Agree 100%.
The idea that we know everything about the human brain, or that there can never be a huge problem with a major organ (the brain) is silly. People are born with birth defects every day, and we accept them. Who is to say that this one?
I don’t feel or think the way Jenner does, but accept that he/she does. I would be kind to him/her if we met.
He/she says that they felt this way as a child.
To me, it looks like it could be a birth defect.
Don’t know why fox/fox business thinks it’s necessary to keep putting this freak in my face.
Excellent.
Did you ever wonder why 3 marriages failed?
I personally knew Bruce Jenner's first wife Christy Crownover and she was the sole support of their marriage, because it was all about him winning the decathlon. I also met Bruce Jenner when he was trying to sell/promote Mini Gyms. He came to our house. He was totally stuck on himself.
Scroll to the bottom and see pictures and an article where he says to have mirrors as it makes it more fun. He likes looking at himself.
You are wrong. XX and XY are the most common makeups, but there are many others. I went to high school with a person with Turners Syndrome.

HE is BRUCE! No amount of mutilation will change that. He can make himself appear as a fish, but that wouldn’t make him be able to breathe in water strictly through his body. Bruce Jenner has a mental disorder. He should not be congratulated on that. Neither should he be condemned. He is an unfortunate person who has been victimized by a PC society that is all too happy to help people with gender identity disorder live out their delusional dreams and then we are supposed to congratulate all involved. I will not be forced to clap as Bruce is victimized.
The interview with Milo was great, too.
I think so, I wasn’t clear about you feeling on the surgery issue. I would suggest normalizing disorders such as these makes it less likely that successful treatments will be found. Not that long ago homosexuality was a disorder, public opinion cured it, and I doubt anyone does research as to the cause other than looking for a genetic link.
Should we then humor those with "mental disabilities" which might presuppose them to homosexuality? Many do, but we know it's wrong.
How about the mental disability that causes kleptomania? Maybe we can stand back and let them steal whatever they want.
Then there's the anorexics...let's applaud them for their bravery while they starve to death.
If genital mutilation cured people like Jenner, they wouldn't have such a high post-surgery incidence of depression and suicide.
LOL
To this Day, Chaz Bono has not had the required Surgery to change her TACO into a BURRITO.
I can’t stand people who have a fear of commitment.
She, like Brucie is just another Phony Attention Whore.
As for Brucie, try doing this big move in Private. Otherwise you are just looking for approval.
It’s none of my Business if you want to lop off your Pee Pee, but if you’re going down that road, get er done like a Man. Procrastination is for Women.
I think it was in The Good, Bad and the Ugly where Tuco said, if you’re going to Shoot, Shoot, don’t Talk.
Bruce Jenner has been keeping up with the Kardashians WAY too much!
THat’s pretty damned sick.
And he still looks like a dude.
