"Black Like Me"?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Like_Me
I read that in high school. Opened my eyes.

Dunno how Bruce/Caitlyn Jenner gets dragged into this mess, she's not pretending to do anything but be true to self as the person within.

Thanks guys.
All I remembered was reading the book when it first came out. My memory while never very good is now out to lunch most days.

Yes, but if he were doing it for his own identity comfort, great. But this is a continuation of their reality freak show, imo.

That's certainly an understandable suspicion and there's probably some truth in it but there have been "clues" about Caitlin's gender identity conflict for a long time, well before he or anyone else heard the name Kardashian. Plus, who the hell wound subject themselves to the physical, emotional and spiritual ordeal that Caitlin has experienced and will continue to experience just for the sake of the shallow notoriety and already present ridicule of the whole Kardashian franchise.

Date a Black woman for a while. Go out in public with her and watch how people react.
It ranges from annoyingly patronizing to downright hostile.
Some are overreacting liberals trying a little too hard to prove they approve to polite, but nonetheless asshole conservatives who "...just don't believe in non-traditional relationships.". Of course none of these idiots see themselves as bigots. Then there are the overt racists who put dents in your car, throw things and make smart assed comments................from afar, of course. Fucking cowards.
If you do anything other than mind your own business and treat everyone around you like human beings regardless of their race or who they are "with"........Congratulations, Sunshine; You're a fucking bigot.
Just leave them alone.
