The guy that Fergie mentioned, who traded in his kilt for a skirt, and the other real life examples of people transforming gender mentioned in this thread are extreme examples of people being honest about who and what they are. Absolutely takes guts to do it. It even takes guts to do it as a rich celeb, because your fame isn't going to insulate you from the ENTIRE world considering you a freak.

There's no law that says that I have to feel comfortable about such a switch or accept anybody who does it. I just recently, in the past 3 years, learned to deal with flaming flamboyant gay men in professional settings.If I had to work with or around transgender folks...would learn to deal with it or work elsewhere.

I've avoided really following the story because, while Bruce should be free to do what he wants, I don't have to pay attention to every step.
