      I thought that was who she was until I read the headline.

    Good for her, except the spelling with a C. That is annoying to me.

    Holy.

    Shit.

    She looks phenomenal. I seriously was like, ‘I don’t know that actress but she’s really pretty.’ Not gonna lie, though, I’d love to see what she looks like sans photoshop.

      I’m also very curious as to how she’ll look not being photographed by a world class photographer, but yeah, this is great and fantastic. Good for her.

    Does anyone else wish that someone newly identifying as a woman didn’t have to be so focused on looking pretty? And evaluated by everyone in terms of prettiness? I know this family is not known for its deep value system, but it’s like...congratulations? Welcome to all kinds of new and dumb pressures?

      That's all womanhood is about, don't you know? Being in your underwear.

      I think this is actually very common with trans women. They seem to focus on feminine stereotypes a lot. And you’re not allowed to critique them. When Meghan Murphy critiqued a photoshoot for Laverne Cox, basically saying the same things she’d say when talking about any woman, people jumped on her pretty hard.

      :shrugs:

      It’s a trans thing. It seems to be important to them to look attractive in stereotypically feminine ways (e.g. sexy). I only have a problem with it if people use it to criticize women who don’t want to go down this road.

    I love her look! This whole story is so inspirational and educational to me. For so long I was confused by transgender people and their motivation to change. I just didn’t get it. But since his coming out I’ve been reading more and just absorbing the knowledge and issues transgender people face. In a way her story inspires me. At the core, it’s all about being your most authentic self and honouring your truth. I wish her a lifetime of happiness!

    PS If I used any incorrect terminology or phrasing, I apologise. Still learning.

      I think Caitlyn would be thrilled to hear that. She had mentioned that she wanted to use her platform and visibility to promote change and acceptance, and the sheer amount of people her story has reached will surely do the transgender community a world of good.

      Keep expanding, keep learning. And thank you for using her proper pronouns, you’re ahead of most peoples games.

      A good rule of thumb for terminology is to use what the particular person has requested others to use. For example, my flatmate is non-binary trans but is happy for me to use masculine pronouns (until gender-free ones become more acceptable in English).

    She looks very pretty. But does her body look really photoshopped to anyone else? It’s the way it glistens or something.

      also the angle of her face, like her neck makes it look like she’s looking straightforward, but her face looks slightly turned?

      eta : I'd fucking kill to look like her any day though

      Well, it’s a cover photo for Vanity Fair. There’s no way it’s NOT photoshopped.

    I think we need Shade Court to analyze whether opting for the “C” spelling of Caitlyn is shade. Anyone else agree?

      Considering when I remember this name being at peak popularity, she could have chosen it a long time ago.
