Jenner is still a guy; he hasn't had the transformal surgery...so no, Jenner isn't a lesbian. Originally Posted by Whirlaway

JUDGMENT

“JUDGE NOT, that you be not Judged... and with the measure you use it will be measured to you... You DO NOT notice the Log that is in your own Eye??? You Hypocrite, first take the Log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take the Speck out of your brother's eye."
---Matthew 7:1-29

It sounds like he's made a courageous choice. Trying to label it as a disorder strikes me as self - serving as it does little more than label this a disease that's able to be treated. Maybe it's simply his choice?

I don't understand. Are you saying that you have no opinion about Jenner's situation? Or are you saying you have made the decision (A JUDGEMENT) that if Jenner considers himself to be woman then that is what he is.

Rambo...gawd awmighty, son, you do have a way with words, don't you.....lol. I must say, you do crack me up sometimes. Anyway, that said, Elizabeth's right...in this particular forum, anything's game and blasting someone just because they're "different" is considered un-cool. So....you being a pretty chill guy would know everything has it's time and it's place, right? Peace.

I've written all I need to say on this topic and don't need to keep repeating myself. (However) I do want to say once again I (still) have a major axe to grind with ESPN for their recent selection of Jenner as this year's recipient (at next month's ESPY award show) of the Arthur Ashe Courage Award.

First of all, it's been almost 40 years since Jenner competed and won the Gold at the 1976 Olympics.....wouldn't you think ESPN has had ample time & opportunity to honor / recognize Jenner for his past accomplishments? Guess not....

So now they decide the time is right.

Has nothing to do with the (downward) spiking viewership the ESPY's have generated each of these past 7 - 8 years, right? After all, the suits at ESPN aren't looking at this as an opportunity to gain some of that Karda$hian reality $how audience, huh?

Past recipients....Muhammad Ali...Jim Valvano...Dean Smith...Pat Tillman.....each had great stories to tell per their lives, accomplishments and how they touched others' lives. And now we get Vanity Fair's newest cover girl......say what..?

Look, I don't have an issue with Jenner and his (uhhh, her) recent decision regarding his (dammit...!) gender reassignment; let's be clear on that. Live and let live, I say.

But I do have an issue with ESPN and their decision to trick their crappy award show up simply to gain a few more eyeballs. Simply put, this has absolutely nothing to do with honoring Jenner; it's about ratings, money and their obvious need / desire to pat themselves on the back for being so fucking PC.

I doubt if that's the only reason why..

I knew since I was little so in my vast life at a young age the things i went through made me that way? I think not the ONLY thing you got right Jim is it does come from the brain...oh and Rambro.....VERY VERY TINY!!!!
