This is actually comical. She doesn't know what menstrual cramps feel like, she doesn't have homegrown breasts, she picked a too-feminine name. I bet her surgeries hurt more than most cramps, that she is well acquainted with Kotex pads, and that in her mind she felt VERY pretty when she posed for Vanity Fair.
At this point I have to wonder if most postrrs here are insecure or, could it be, just JEALOUS.
No, but we respect women and understand that they are far more than a pair of fake breasts, a fake pouch and a glob of make up to be one
You understand how painful is child birth is dont you ding dong? You understand that what preceeds child birth ain't a whole lotta fun either, right?
Being a woman is not absurd. A dude cutting his dong off, growing a couple of fake boobs and globbing on some make up then going on a fashion mag is:
Absurdity.
I am a woman, don't be fooled by the hat. I have had cramps, two natural births and one cesarean, several miscarriages. Does my opinion matter more now?
Caitlyn becoming a woman didn't hurt or lessen me and I hold no resentment toward her.
I won't pretend to fully understand how she felt all those years but respect her right to seek happiness in any way as long as it doesn't hurt anyone else. Her children will adjust, are doing pretty well from what is reported.
I do wish it wasn't so public. Those new ads for a tv show dealing with the same subject upset me as they are run during kids' shows and I really didn't appreciate my grandchild having to deal with that. But I don't think Caitlyn had a chance to be private about any of it with HER family being so famous and the media right there.
Frankly, I wish her family and others like it would drop out of media because they really aren't the role models I would like to see out there for our kids at all.
But individually, this woman welcomes Caitlyn to her new life. Just please don't share details of your new sex life with me. I promise not to share mine either. Some things just don't need sharing.
