The way you pick apart her appearance and call her arms "not believably feminized" is offensive and also not the point of the Vanity Fair piece. In this world, there are all types of women, women with wide jaws and strong arms and Caitlyn is one of us. Don't delegitimize her womanhood just because she does not fit your prescribed definition of beauty. Furthermore, it angers me when you ask "why would you go through all of this torture [plastic surgery] only to emerge as a haggard looking female?", insinuating that the only purpose of transitioning is to become more pretty. People decide to transition in order to more fully be themselves, and that does not necessarily include living up to beauty and gender standards!

I have unsubscribed from this blog as this post and the values and lack of acceptance in it thoroughly disgusted me.

P.S. Hello, Caitlyn Jenner. Your courage inspires me and I aspire to be as brave and strong as you.
