I don't have to establish that I actually -am- Rhythm...or DJ......so why is anyone balking at what Jenner wants to be referred to as or thought of as? It's the simplest thing in the world...to allow a person to self define....we do it all the time. We've got a member here on these boards who is very plainly a woman, spend any amount of time with her and you'll see that she is........doesn't really matter that she was born swinging richard.....and no one gives -her- any shit for it.........
I'm sure I heard about this on the Joe Rogan podcast, and from what I think I remember, the only hub bub about it all was that Jenner was still playing sports and because he now identifies as a woman he plays sports with women, and I think what Joe was saying which I think is quite a good point was that it gave him an unfair advantage, he was taller and faster than most the women he was playing against I think.
Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.
