    Why Might Steinmetz Choose To Be Outwardly Solil?

    Christine Jorgensen was one of the first in modern American history to be outwardly transgender. Christine was in World War II as a soldier born George. During her time in the World War II, she started to look for a surgeon to “physically transform him into her” (Steinmetz 40). As a result, Christine was honorably discharged for the army. This story was a headline on December 1, 1952 for the New York Daily News. In a newsletter, Jorgensen wrote, “Nature made a mistake, […] which I have had corrected” (Steinmetz 40). Jorgensen’s story created so much chatter for the transgender world. It was said she, “became a national sensation and led some Americans to question ideas…

    Bruce Jenner Individualism

    In the article “How American Family Life Is Different” Andrew Cherlin states expressive individualism is a sense of fulfillment through one's emotional satisfaction. Therefore, I believe Caitlyn Jenner known once as Bruce Jenner, the olympic gold medalist serves as a model for expressive individualism. In 2015, Caitlyn known at the time as a Bruce Jenner publicly announced she was transgender. Before Caitlyn's transitions she said in an ABC News interview that Bruce had always been a lie but she knew, heart and soul that she was meant to be woman. Since her announcement, Caitlyn was awarded the Arthur Ashe Courage Award at the 2015 EPSY Awards, was named one of the greatest LGBT influential people in America, but overall has openly discussed…

    Arthur Ashe Courage Award

    I agree that Caitlyn Jenner is unbelievably privileged. Because of this, she is in a position where she could use all of that publicity and attention to be a voice for the transgender community. A majority of the transgender community doesn’t have the kind of money or attention that Caitlyn has, but they can educate her on the kinds of struggles that they have had to overcome. On the documentary series, I Am Cait, Caitlyn regularly visits LGBTQ centers and listens to those who share their struggles. Although she cannot possibly understand the horrors that they have endured, she can use her newfound status to give them a voice that they previously did not have.…

    Talk to your children while they are eating; what you say will stay even after you are gone. Sometimes, if you stop talking, no one will know what you are thinking. Everybody thinks that their views are more important than everybody else's, and they should be the only ones who should be heard. But, that's not the case, everyone is entitled to think and speak freely. Talk to your children while they are eating; what you say will stay even after you are gone is important to live by, which can be seen through Robin Williams, Jennifer Lawrence, the poem Opinions & Decisions, and the Presidential election.…

    Tebow Role Models

    An avid Christian may have a completely different vision of a role model in comparison to an individual that is transgender. Many football fans and Christians find Tim Tebow to be a leader as an athlete by leading his Florida Gators to a national championship. Some devote Christians may feel his role in his ministries as a devote Christian is one of his most important positions as a role model. Caitlyn Jenner takes on very different role model to the transgender community. Opening the doors to conversations about transgender and teaching others the importance of acceptance. Regardless of these very different role models, both inspire others to be the best they can be. Additionally, they both have the qualities of great leaders. Finally, one of the most valuable aspect both Teabow and Jenner possess is that they have made the world a better place. From the pulpit to the stage of the Espy awards, Teabow and Jenner are role models that are making a difference in our world. Their roles may seem very different, but both are valuable to our world. After all, if we were all the same our world might be a little on the boring side and when we have role models like Tebow and Jenner the sun shines a little brighter for so many…
