CAITLYN JENNER CAN’T HANDLE PRESSURE, WANTS TO TRANSITION BACK

imageNEW YORK, New York (The Adobo Chronicles® ) – Until recently, Caitlyn Jenner had enjoyed a relatively warm reception by the transgender and larger LGBTQ community. While many raised an eyebrow at her affiliation with the Republican Party and a chorus of trans advocates rightly cautioned that Jenner’s privileged position as a wealthy celebrity made her a poor representative of the larger trans experience, most of the community welcomed having such a high-profile and potentially influential figure join the fold.

But as always, honeymoon periods don’t last very long.

Recent statements by Jenner on the Ellen DeGeneres show and on The Today Show (with Matt Lauer) demonstrating her little understanding of day-to-day transgender issues and about same-sex marriage have angered the transgender and LGBTQ communities and many have withdrawn their support for the Olympic, and now, reality TV star.

That’s a lot of pressure for Jenner. First, coming out, and now having to deal with criticism and pressure from the transgender  and LGBTQ communities.

So, she has decided to transition back.

Kim Kardashian couldn’t be more pleased at the decision of her former step father.

Meanwhile, E! Television has announced it was replacing the show “I am Cait” with “I am Bruce … Again.”

 

 

 

DEMOCRATS WOO REPUBLICAN CAITLYN JENNER

CaptureWASHINGTON, D.C. (The Adobo Chronicles ) – It is common knowledge that the former Bruce Jenner was a Republican.  It is therefore not a surprise that among the first to welcome Caitlyn into their fold was the Log Cabin Republicans.

Log Cabin Republicans is the nation’s original and largest organization representing gay conservatives and allies who support fairness, freedom, and equality for all Americans, and who believe in electing Republicans into office.  Just this year, the California chapter officially gave charter status to the group, giving it a vote in state Republican party matters and policies.

Meanwhile, the Democratic National Committee (DNC) has reportedly reached out to Caitlyn in the hope that she will switch party affiliation.

The committee is confident that it can win over Caitlyn, citing the fact that there are more Democrats who support her and who support key LGBT issues like same-sex marriage.

“While Bruce was Republican, Caitlyn is an entirely new person and that new person is more aligned with the Democratic ideology, especially as it relates to LGBT equality,” a DNC spokesperson said.

The DNC cited the fact that all declared Republican presidential candidates believe that marriage should only be between a man and a woman, and that most are lukewarm to giving equal federal rights to LGBTs.

The ball is now in Caitlyn’s court.
