NEW 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transgender issues and about same-sex marriage have angered the transgender and LGBTQ communities and many have withdrawn their support for the Olympic, and now, reality TV star.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.”
ROWAN COUNTY, Kentucky (The Adobo Chronicles® ) – In her first interview since being put behind bars for defying the Supreme Court ruling ordering her to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples, Rowan County Clerk Kim Davis answered questions posed by The Adobo Chronicles®. (She made it very clear that she was granting us the interview “under God’s auhority.”)
TOPEKA, Kansas (The Adobo Chronicles® ) -The Westboro Baptist Church (WBC) is an unaffiliated Baptist church known for its hate speech, especially against LGBT people, Jews and politicians. It is known for picketing public events, including funerals, and uses social media to condemn what it thinks is against God’s law.
On Sunday, WBC members marched through Topeka not with their familiar signs of “God Hates Fags ” or “Fags Go To Hell.” Rather, they carried signs that read “God Hates Divorcees,” and “Adulterers Go to Hell.” The church’s Facebook page was also filled with hate speech targeting Davis.
