1. I feel sorry for the American people

Or maybe not -- the American people only have themselves to blame that the Kardashians take up so much news coverage.

Our popular culture really has hit rock bottom.

2. What is happening to Jenner is important. Too bad she is a fucking republican

and completely misses the whole fucking point of what that means especially to someone like her.

But the issue is important.

We need to grow up, we need to not care if men and Women use the same bathroom, even.

8. It's a good business decision, nothing more

Sorry, this bunch has no credibility with me, and that includes Caitlynn Jenner. An important issue hijacked by an attention whore. She isn't "courageous," she has an entourage that will shield her from any negative effects. And will make a ton of money from a reality show, to boot. I see this alienating as many people as it educates, if not more.

She is denying it. But no publicity is bad publicity, huh?

10. I hate that I know this...but she's not denying being pregnant

In my defense, when I got home and turned on the tv it was on Access Hollywood. Anyway, she's said she's pregnant and had been waiting for the first trimester to pass before announcing.

14. You know what?

I was thumbing through her selfie book the other day at Barnes and Noble. Just out of curiosity. Most of the time they've been wrapped up, but there was an open copy so I just went for it.

I do feel sorry for her. She has been objectified and objectified herself so much she doesn't even appear human to be. Her value to Kanye, to her family, and to herself comes from... her booty, her body, and her boobs. (I think in that order.)

And while she seems to be living the life she wants and seems to be content with that, I find it to be empty and terrible. It would make me miserable. And because of that, I feel sorry for her. I guess it's my own prejudice that I can't believe that she feels fulfilled or happy being a trophy to everyone in her life.

18. I don't feel sorry for her at all.

She was born with a wealth of choices in her life, and she chose the path that's she's on. I reserve my sympathies for people who have limited or no choices in life.
