Oh boy. And we wonder why bullying is such a problem in this country. Adults are way meaner than any kid I know.
Which is why kids learn to bully from adults. Sad

I hold more hope for the millennials because my own generation seems clueless when it comes to anyone “different.”

Caitlyn Jenner is her name. She is no longer Bruce Jenner. She is no longer a He. We are adults here and we should try to at least be understanding of how a person may feel. When we say she looks horrible,legs are ugly and other things being said it is bullying.
I personally know someone who is from the Trans community. It is not an easy life. They are constantly harassed. She was born a male and spend most of her teen years in pain. Tried committing suicide. She finally spoke to her parents and she was lucky that her mom and dad loved her and accepted her. Most people from the trans community get thrown out of their homes because their family won't accept them. I love my children and I would accept them for who they are not what society say they should be. I accept everyone.

Ok, I understand, you see it as bullying, I see it as expressing opinions. So two differing views.

I respectfully disagree that this conversation is considered "bullying".. I guess we can't have conversations or debates, personal opinions, views and etc. any longer.

I'll apologize to the moderators and they can delete whatever they choose to do.

The first thing I noticed is Jenner's hand. The term "Man hands" immediately came to mind.

The legs: There's an alarming loss of shape-giving muscle under the skin. It's reminiscent of muscle wasting in some elderly, or malnourished patients I've dealt with. I've been thinking about what must be done for a healthy person to achieve that atrophic shape.

I have a dictionary too. I don't see any bullying in this thread, @JJsMom . Jenner's appearance is being observed and commented upon. Don't tell me that's a process you don't engage in.

On this board "bullying" has come to mean saying something negative, even if it's true. No, they don't own dictionaries. Apparently, every comment should be all sweetnes and light and sugar....and lies..LOL

@chrystaltree

BINGO! I was about to make a comment about the word "bullying" being bandied about so loosely these days for every little thing that it's beginning to lose it's true meaning.
