"And if Bruce had come out as Caitlyn in 1976 and the Olympics were as “enlightened” then as they are today, shouldn’t he have been allowed to compete as a woman?... The world’s top athlete — traditionally the title given to the winner of the decathlon — would have been a woman, since Caitlyn’s performance would have bested the performance of all the men in the competition."

EXCEPT, that "Caitlyn" wouldn't be allowed to compete if the "enlightened" Olympic committee proclaimed "her" a woman, because there is no women's decathlon in the Olympics. If they proclaimed "she" was a woman, "she" would have had to compete in the heptathlon. Thus, "she" would not be the gold-medal winner of the decathlon, and as such, not "the world's top athlete".

No. This was the grandest scam of all, brought to us by the Kardashian / Jenner freak show and E! network. None of them are mentally ill. Jenner is just a very mercenary attention whore who would do anything to keep the fame and paydays coming. They cooked all this up. People were getting bored with the Kardashians’ nonsense so they had to step up their game with something spectacular. So they had Bruce dress up like a woman for a while. It worked. Now people are bored with it and he will “transition back” and that will generate some attention for a while. This whole transgender Caitlin nonsense was a huge publicity scam on the American TV viewing public.

Many years ago, the Johns Hopkins University hospital (which was a pioneer in “gender reassignment” surgery) stopped doing such surgeries because it found no long-term benefit to the recipients.

Clear thinking from JiC. Thanks.

It could be a fad, an intellectual fad. They've happened before. The ideas of Sigmund Freud were a fad that lasted decades, but in recent years they've lost a lot of following, prestige, and credibility, as has psychiatry in general. That despite the mighty efforts of thousands of highly-educated practitioners who had invested their entire lives in Freudian psychiatry.

The world still awaits the testimony of the thousands - or millions, perhaps - of children who are raised by homosexual parents. The books haven't been written yet (actually I think one such book has been written), the movies haven't been made, the television programs haven't been produced. Yet. They will. Hollywood may not make them, Lifetime and Netflix may not make them, but the barriers to entry are falling lower all the time, and they will be made.

Donald Trump - whatever else he does or doesn't do - has taught Americans that they don't have to kowtow to political correctness. This is so far his greatest contribution. The long-term pressure of reality can't be ignored, even though it can be subverted for a time when the forces of societal entropy make a concerted effort through the media and political leadership.

That guy should be in a mental hospital.

Homosexuality was eliminated as a mental illness by the Board of Trustees of the American Psychiatric Association (APA) in 1973. The decision to was upheld by a 58% majority of voting APA members in 1974.

Proving that no more than 42% of psychiatrists were sane in 1974.

It's probably even fewer today.

” ... a significant number of transgenders are just confused amd mentally ill people who announce that they are transgender for attention”

Some respected medical professionals (whom the MSM generally ignore) claim it is a form of “disassociative disorder,” very much like that suffered by (mostly) young women who believe they are fat and then become bulimic. That’s why the post above comparing Bruce Jenner and Karen Carpenter in on-target.

He never stopped being Bruce. 'Caitlyn' is just a government-approved false identity

Our culture is officially insane. Seriously! We are psychotic thanks to the left and “social justice warriors.” Clinically insane behavior is now mainstream.

It’s way past time to take the gloves off with anyone who self identifies as a democrat. This is their pile of dung. Rub their noses in it. But we don’t need to accept or condone it. Laugh in their psychotic faces!

Perhaps the ship will right itself, but, sadly, so many lives will be damaged/ruined while we wait.

Honestly, the people in authority who allowed this teaching to our children, along with allowing little ones to be adopted by homosexuals will have to answer.

The left is normalizing mental illness for the purpose of breaking down families and society.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Exactly. This is straight out of the neo-Marxist playbook.

Marx and Engels in the Communist Manifesto advocated the abolishing of the family. The implication is to hand off the children to the state for their raising and upkeep. We’ve already done so with all of the public education, now we’re reaping the results with the latest generations indoctrinated by the reality-challenged Marxists from the 1960s.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Homosexuality was always considered a mental/emotional illness. Soon, pedophiles will enjoy the same consideration by saying that they’re born that way.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Soon? More like for the past 15 or so years:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rind_et_al._controversy

And it’s gotten worse and worse, to the point now where a large portion of millennials see nothing wrong with pedophilia, even to the point of labeling pedophiles as victims of bigots:

http://www.salon.com/2015/09/21/im_a_pedophile_but_not_a_monster/

http://www.salon.com/2015/09/30/im_a_pedophile_youre_the_monsters_my_week_inside_the_vile_right_wing_hate_machine/

By the way, the author of those two Salon articles is a male-to-female “transgender” (a dude who wears wigs and dresses).

I predicted from the beginning he would go back and reconcile with his Kardashian wife, whether as a man or a woman.

The media has already issued stories assuring this “rarely” happens.
