Bruce Jenner special

[Mizzoufan]

What did everyone think? It took so much courage for him to open up to the public. I hope he can find happiness

 

[CF'er]

Amen

 

[low-key]

I didnt watch it, did he say if he wanted to be a women way back in Olympic Days ? if so, wow, he looked like he was living the dream

 

[aristocatz]

He said he felt this way since he was a young child. Part 2 of the interview is about to start. I have so much respect for him-what a stand-up person he is. I have a feeling he is going to be a motivational speaker for the transgender community.

ETA: Sorry, not sure if I should have said "she" instead of "he"?

 

[asta]

This is all so confusing. I can't imagine what he is going through.

But what is wrong with his eye? I would do something about that before any other medical procedures. It was very hard to look at him with the eyes so different.

 

[hereyago]

I hope it is a smooth transition and she finds peace.

 

[AustinTink]

I watched. Major respect to him for his bravery.

 

[CF'er]

The Olympics were his "beard". The drive to prove that he was a man. I hope he can truly find peace and live the life he has wanted for so long. At 65 I think it's time for Bruce to live for Bruce. Love the family reaction. Class all the way.

I haven't watched the whole interview but caught the first hour. My kids and I watched it together. I wanted them to watch and have compassion for others. I have a whole new outlook/opinion of Bruce Jenner - such a brave person. The media has made him out to be such a weirdo the last year or so but in reality he is such a nice family oriented person.

 

[The Mystery Machine]

Did not watch but I am giving him thumbs up for the LBGT community. My dd is also transgender.

 

[MrsDuck]

I didn't watch but did read a live updated blog who was covering the special. I hope she finds happiness and acceptance from those who matter most.

I just watched about 45 min.....wish him/her the best
I still don't get being married so often and having all those kids, tho

I think he was living up to what was expected from him.

I still use the term him,because that what he wants to be referred to as.

 

[Jennasis]

I hope Bruce finds the same inner peace and happiness we all want.

This is all so confusing. I can't imagine what he is going through.

I'm assuming the eye issue was from Botox.

I found him to be brave and inspiring. I think it is awful how the media is treating him, that scene where he was driving and a paparazzi did a wolf whistle and said something to him mocking him. I can't imagine how his life has been up until now. I hope he is able to make things easier for others. I was surprised to hear Kim was his biggest supporter.

I was more shocked to hear Kayne was lol. He only seems to support himself LOL

 

[lizabu]

I watched the first 15 minutes. i thought it was brave for him to want to speak publicly about it in his words to change the world. DH wanted to watch something else so I let him. I thought he looked happy and his face looked softer and better than I've seen it look. Whatever makes you happy. I think it's sad that it's 2015 and being trans is still a big deal. I think we should all just get over it and live and let live.

 

[sunshinehighway]

I didn't watch the whole interview. His wonky eye was distracting and I thought it was mean when he made remarks about the Russian former Olympian getting fat. Way to be non judgmental and accepting, Bruce.
Doing an E! Reality show makes me lose respect for him. I can understand him wanting to use his name to bring awareness but E! Is a network of trashy, mindless shows.

Being transgender doesn't mean a person is gay. I mean... Once the transition is complete from man to woman, THEN I guess she would be a lesbian though.

 

[anniemae]

He said he was always attracted to women, he never has been with a man nor has he been attracted to a man. So it's not like he was gay man trying to appear straight.
