Caitlyn Jenner is here boys....

Why didn't Bruce Jenner quietly and privately go get this procedure done and go about her merry way?

The whole thing smacks of opportunism and attention-seeking, and it has wrapped dumb ass America all up in itself and Jenner is laughing all the way to the bank.

Why should she be quiet about it?
 
If it were as acceptable and normal as some people wished it to be, it wouldn't be near as profitable and Caitlyn would be sad.

Agreed. That's why I never had sex. I saw Kim Kardashian do it and I was like "if this were normal, this fucking whore wouldn't be doing it!". Took one for the team (also the only woman I ever approached told me me my face looks like an armpit). Anyway, ended up with a weird sexual fetish where I can only jerk off on squirrels. And that's the type of shit God invented penises for, BRUCE! NOT FOR CHOPPING THEM OFF!
 
I doubt someone that was born in 1970 or 1971 remembers watching the 1976 Olympics.

I remember it. I was six. Do you not remember being 6 and watching sports? I remember Terry Bradshaw and Lynn Swann and Jim Plunkett and Joe Namath. I remember Skip Brown and Rod Griffen.

I stand corrected then (and to answer your question, I really don't remember watching sports at six)

Actually I do. Sugar Ray Leonard, Nadia Comaneci, Bruce Jenner (seriously) were awesome. My first memories of the Olympics were the 76 games (obviously). The 76 games were great and much needed after the horrors of the 72 Munich games.

If you only knew that sick bastard was competing, it would have made them much worse!

She shouldn't necessarily, but if she decides to throw a parade in her own honor or in this case do it on TV and do interviews and shit, then she should be prepared for people to be surprised, shocked, whatever and not need you and the PC brigade running to her defense. I don't care one way or another if people have sex changes. I do, however, thoroughly enjoy mocking celebrities who whore themselves out on TV to make a buck. They deserve it.

I love Ozzy Osbournes music and bought his albums and when he did a reality show, I dressed up as him for Halloween and stumbled around with a burrito in one hand and a remote control in the other. I mocked him for being a drunken buffoon. So fucking what? Would you have jumped to his defense if I called him ridiculous and a fucking buffoon? I mean, he has an illness called alcoholism and all...
 
The first sports I can really remember details about took place when I was nine. I remember being aware of/watching Rodney Rogers but I couldn't tell you anything about any of the games.
 
Gen X is proving itself better at remembering sports from their early childhood on this thread than millennials are
 
Call me old fashioned, but I'd like to think the main reason Bruce Jenner did what he did was so random dudes could tell he each other how old they were when they started remembering sports shit.
 
Sometimes a famous person needs to experience something in order for it to become more mainstream or acceptable to the kind of people that watch reality television. Some of America's bigots have probably given more thought to the humanity of transsexuality now than ever before.
 
OR, alternative theory

Middle-age makes us all liars

I don't have any problem with the Vanity Fair coverage, but the photo is a curious choice. Wonder if it was Jenner's choice to have such a revealing shot on the cover.

That photo isn't revealing at all.

Seriously, all kidding aside. It was a very different time then, no one would've ever thought Bruce Jenner the model of male strength and athleticism at the time would've 40 years later be posing as a woman on the cover of Vanity Fair. Bruce Jenner was a great Olympic athlete, I enjoyed watching him compete, whether he's Bruce or Caitlyn now doesn't change that.

I don't think anyone is calling other people out on here for mocking the process and the theatricality of it all. It's directed at the lowlifes that want to call other people "sick bastards" for being who they are.

Yeah, I remember UNC winning the NCAA Championship and the Niners beating the Bengals in the Super Bowl. I actually remember the 1980 presidential election.

I guess. I mean there have been some pretty famous transsexuals in the past. RuPaul had his own show, but maybe he was just a crossdresser. Didn't Cher's daughter transform? Seems like there have been some others.
