    Good. Discrimination is:

    the unjust or prejudicial treatment of different categories of people or things, especially on the grounds of race, age, or sex.

    ie. things you can’t change about yourself.

    Your beliefs, however? Fair game. As it should be.

      Completely agreed. And I also hope that she realizes the class (and celeb) privilege that is shielding her from the kind of struggles most trans people in the US have to deal with.

    Caitlyn Jenner SHOULD get more shit for her beliefs than her gender identity, since her beliefs are stupid, and she had basically nothing to do with being trans. So, yay, if that’s the way it’s going down for her.

    HOWEVER.

    It’s pretty tone-deaf of her to talk about not getting shit for being trans. She’s incredibly rich and privileged, and had every advantage in her transition. That is not exactly the case with the majority of trans-folk and Caitlyn steadfastly refusing to acknowledge her privilege while simultaneously complaining about getting flak for being a conservative is getting pretty irritating.

      Once I got accused of being “anti-trans” because I don’t like Caitlin Jenner, but I don’t like her for shit like this.

    Caitlyn Jenner is an asshole, just as Bruce Jenner was. She changed her outside only. I have no idea why she gets a pass on her awfulness.

      Who’s really giving her a pass though? The only people I know who don’t actively dislike her are people who don’t watch her show or KUWTK. I mean, even in this kind of venue, which involves a lot of ass-kissing, people were calling her on her bullshit (even if they were diplomatic about it).

      I understand. Plenty in the media however have given her a pass for awful shit she has said. Others have suggested if you dislike her you are transphobic. No, she’s just a total bitch and all around asshole.

    It’s been really interesting to watch Emma Watson’s career progress after the Harry Potter films. I wouldn’t be at all surprised if she ended up giving up acting for something more...substantial in its ability to bring about a wider social effect.

      I wouldn’t be surprised either. She has already been a UN ambassador (and given wonderful speeches as part of that). It definitely seems to be her passion.

      Also, I’ve been enjoying reading along with her feminist bookclub on Goodreads - I really recommend it. Gloria Steinem’s “My Life on the Road” was an excellent read.

      Yeah acting doesn’t seen to be her passion (but not in a bad way she's a good actress). I wouldn’t be surprised at all if she moved into the NGO world or something.

    I wouldn’t be surprised if there was a Happy Endings movie. It feels like alot of people (like me) are watching it now that missed it the first time around, kicking up interest again.

    But like how many articles are going to go for the obvious word play on that? I’m already dreading it.

      Same! I just finished the series this afternoon, and I miss them already :(

      I really wish they’d just put the show back on. Maybe make it a Netflix series!

    I read Orlando Jones when you wrote Orlando Brown, and I was so sad. I’m really glad I was wrong.

      He reminds me of Jeff Goldblum. I have no idea why. But now I want them to do a buddy movie together.
