    IN a similar but different vein, in a past life I worked with several dozen people who each had lost more than 100 pounds...some up them 250+. They all did this the old fashioned way. Many of them admitted that they were on antidepressants, in therapy, etc...the weight was a symptom of their inner issues, not the cause.

    This was almost word for word what I was in the middle of posting before I got sidetracked earlier today. When I heard this latest Jenner tidbit, the first person I thought of was Mike/Christine.

    This is why if you're transitioning, you have to live as the opposite gender for at least a year before surgery just to be sure. Once you have it, there's no going back.

    She's a tucker, dude. Of course she still has balls.

    She is not directing the litigation. It is in the insurance company's hands. It's typical strategy. Find anyone who might have contributed to causing the accident and bring them in.

    And I hope it backfires like the Penn State insurance litigation.

    It's a no brainer. Get the paparazzi's insurance company to come in and contribute a few bucks.

    It's very sad. I hope this doesn't end tragically for Jenner.
    I don't oppose any consenting adult doing what he or she wants to do, but my intuition tells me we'll look back on the issue of sexual reassignment years from now and discover a lot mistakes have been made.
    But that is the way of progress.
    It's still sad if someone undergoes such a serious and potentially traumatic process only to discover he/she was reacting to symptoms of larger or myriad problems.

    Jenner's need for attention doesn't help the situation.

    My wife watches a show about a young boy transitioning. The family obviously is very supportive. A minor could not undergo this without parental approval.

    That's not drastic enough. This is a more appropriate response to the news:

    By the time all the special effects are included it will be 90 percent Photoshop, 10 percent Jenner. Probably will look fine.
