For All Intents And Purposes...

He still just looks like a bloke in drag...

It's the interview we've all been waiting for, Bruce Jenner bravely talking about his widely speculated, never-been-confirmed transition to a woman.

You might have heard about it…it's the celeb gossip which has generated more headlines this year than anything else.

So, what does he have to say about it? Well, the 65-year-old gets straight to the point, revealing that he is "for all intents and purposes" a woman.

However, it's not the cry-fest we had anticipated, in fact, Bruce looks relaxed, even unloosening his ponytail to let his long hair flow, as he talks to veteran interviewer Diane Sawyer.

The reality TV star and former Olympian also goes on to says that people had always seen him as a "macho male" sportsman.

But behind that, the real him has always been "feminine". Just check out the video below to see how much Bruce has changed since the heights of his sport's fame.

For all intents and purposes, for all the hormone treatments, long hair, surgery, he's still a man in women's clothing.

Apparently not.

Hey, Icy, remember all the naysayers?

Good for him/her.Do what you gotta do.

Strange interview!

S/he keeps referring to her/himself in the third person,

as in 'Bruce Jenner admits this'. And then uses the pronoun 'we'

like there's more than one of her/him.

I think s/he is still a tad confused. I know I am

Naysayers about what?

The OP sounds a bit naysayery to me.

It's nobody elses business, although he cashes in on making his private life everyone elses business so I suppose this would be no different. Femininity, perhaps it's contagious. He lived with so many females he turned into one.

Karli, some time ago, icy suggested that Bruce wanted to be female.

A lot of people jumped right down her throat for suggesting it

That's my memory of it anyway

Thanks, stawka.

He has looked weird for years. Too much plastic surgery, or something.

I don't think people were 'naysayers' so much as wanting to hear it from him rather than read a story about him in some gossip magazine.

Listening to the interview it doesn't make much sense, but then again the whole family are one big propaganda advertising machine.

He has always seemed a bit feminine in the way he never stood up for himself within the family of females ( The Kardashians)

perhaps that's what he means?? I don't know

For all intents and Purpose, doesn't affect my life one bit.

Re: For All Intents And Purposes...

imastawka — Sat, 25 Apr 2015 11:57:07 GMT

Living with the females that he did, maybe the plastic surgery

was on the wrong end.

That came out all wrong! I meant the 4rse end

Re: For All Intents And Purposes...

debra9275 — Sat, 25 Apr 2015 11:59:41 GMT

he's looked strange for a very long time with that plastic surgery gone wrong imo stawks

Yes of course.

But for all that trouble, the hormones, the surgery, the long hair, the makeup and lippy, you'd want to actually look like a woman, wouldn't you?

like Carlotta:

Famous Kings Cross drag queen of the '70s

There's so much media coverage about Bruce Jenner and his "transition", I wonder if it's really just a publicity stunt.

But I'm not in that group, thank whoever for that.

Carlotta has always been 'da bomb'

And such a lovely lady.

It could be. He's been shaping his eye brows into a feminine shape for years. it was one of the things that made his appearance seem a little odd. Maybe he's been performing in drag in his spare time.

Well, that's my point.
If he's been working on himself for years with the "Intent and Purpose" of becoming a woman, it doesn't seem to be working.
He still just looks like a bloke dressed up as as woman.

He looked more feminine when he wasn't trying.
