When I hear or read the term "politically correct" I think "According to who's politics?" Everyone has their own political beliefs/opinions, so what is correct for one is not always correct for another.

I see I'm in the minority here, but that's ok. I think it speaks poorly of HIM to do that.
OTOH, he is entitled to his opinion and I don't dispute that. If that is how he feels, he should feel free to express that in his actions, as he has done. I would disagree with him but that's the way it goes!
I think there is too much of teaching people what to believe, how to think, and who the bad people and who the good people are, out there. If people would just not listen to the ugliness and agenda-filled proclamations, it would be a better world, IMO.

Laverne Cox won Woman of the Year 2014
Where was the outrage then?
No one noticed? I think CJ's never ending publicity is the biggest problem. Not sure what she did to deserve this in the first place. Money talks apparently.
Not sure who could take this magazine seriously in the first place.

It's the husband's prerogative, though misguided.

Glamour Award? Do you really think this a BIGGIE? Now if it was from ALLURE, that would be the bees' knees. Glamour Mag. is the pits.

I join you on that bench. I agree with you 100%. It speaks very poorly of him. He is entitled to his feelings but I do not agree of his actions.

It's his right to return the award. I find it to be sad and petty.
And I very much wish that people would be more careful about trotting out the PC card all the time; it diminishes MY right to hold the opinion that regardless what I may think about Jenner as a person, I do think that she has brought attention to the bias and ridicule so often endured by transgenders.
There's room in the world for both awards. But again, his right to send it back. I personally would have kept it in honor of my spouse.
