If kids can't afford surgery, all the hormone treatments, and whatever else, are we teaching them that they're stuck in a lie forever and to be miserable?
It's not like just trying to lose weight to be healthier or things like that because are we teaching kids that some people are mistakes?
Everyone on Facebook and the media is praising her and I just can't get those thoughts out of my head.
Is this your argument for free health care like the rest of the civilized world has?
If so, well done.
Jenner was stuck in a lie forever and miserable, and lucky for him he had the dough to break out of it. Yes, it blows that scores of other people like him without his resources can't live the life they want to live.
So, the message to kids is honor your own truth, listen to your heart, strive to be the person you want to be, and make the world a more just place so everyone has access to the choices that now only the rich like Jenner have. Why on earth would you want to get those thoughts out of your head? They are good thoughts. (Oh, sorry, I forgot, you are kind of a nutbag. And I don't mean that in some macho testicle way, I mean you are kind of crazy sounding at times.)
JOHN ROBERTS: From time to time in the years to come, I hope you will be treated unfairly so that you will come to know the value of justice... I wish you bad luck, again, from time to time so that you will be conscious of the role of chance in life and understand that your success is not completely deserved and that the failure of others is not completely deserved either.
