To think Caitlyn Jenner has had a personality transplant?

Loved Bruce Jenner, but since he became Caitlyn, I think her personality has changed completely and not in a good way! You would think after carrying around that burden all your life that it would be a relief to get it out in the open, but if anything, Caitlyn seems to be angrier and more unhappy than ever.

Anyone else notice this?

They been pandered to too much and heaped with undeserved accolades like 'Woman of the Year'. Now the interest has waned and they want further ego massaging. The entitlement doesn't just go away.

See also India Willoughby she is exactly the same

Love your post. Sad for CJ eh! 😬

From the several detransitioned people I know (close family member is one) it’s because they are sold a dream of glitter and rainbows, but the reality is that they have all the exact same problems they always did, but now you can add becoming a life long patient, and being stared at, and rejected to the mix. They’re furious because they spent their whole life believing that this was the answer to all their problems, but the reality is, it’s only the beginning of them.

Bruce only really spoke when something needed to be said. Caitlin, however, pontificates about fucking everything.

Omgineedanamechange was going to say pretty much the same as you, they probably think that this change is going to solve all their problems & then it happens and all the things that were shit in their life before are still shit, but now they have to add being trans to the mix so it’s even worse.

I have zero interest in any thing Caitlyn has to say. I suspect that Caitlyn is realising that most people feel this way about them.

IsAStormApporaching · 09/03/2019 18:01

I totally agree.
I loved Bruce Jenner. He was a lovely kind, funny man and his kids always came first.
I am glad Caitlyn was able to become who she felt she always was. But somewhere along the way she has become nasty and
Celf-centered.

BitchQueen90 · 09/03/2019 18:07

Yes, she's turned into a dick and it seems like she's alienating her children. I read that she missed her son's wedding as she was in another country with her new partner.

It feels like now that she can be her true self she's turned really selfish.

Re dead naming, who won the Olympic medal?
Was it Bruce or Caitlyn?

If it was Bruce, does that mean Caitlyn doesn't have an Olympic medal?

Matilda15 · 09/03/2019 18:32

I agree. It’s hard to reconcile Bruce and Caitlyn Jenner as the same person.

I watched Caitlyns reality series on E, partly due to being fascinated but also a close friend of mines teenage daughter had recently revealed some gender identity struggles so I wanted to see if I could understand and learn about trans issues so I could help support her and my friend.

I was pretty shocked at how entitled and nasty Caitlyn seemed. I certainly didn’t learn anything I could help my friend with!

PennyLaneIsInMyHeart · 09/03/2019 18:38

Yes, there is a definite change. Nothing to do with the same attitude being seen differently if a man or woman in this case. Bruce seemed lovely. Caitlyn is completely different. I have only my shameful previous TV viewing to go on, but seems a completely different person.

Ginger1982 · 09/03/2019 18:48

Agree. I used to like Bruce a lot on KUWTK. I always thought he was a bit henpecked by Kris but, in the main, a nice solid family guy.

Caitlin is awful by comparison!

Daysofpearlyspencer · 09/03/2019 19:00

Aging as a TW is hard, it takes more and more effort to 'pass' each day. Poor CJ will start to look like a drag act soon

Slazengerbag · 09/03/2019 19:13

I can’t stand her. I watched an episode where she was still going to get to go to an all male golf club and it really boiled my piss.

The hate for kris Was awful. Her husband had become a TW and she was the one getting the flack for it all as she wasn’t that supportive. Well I honestly don’t think I would be supportive if my husband was transitioning either!
