Caitlyn Jenner is not happy with the President she helped elect, and people are wasting no time telling her “I told you so”
Caitlyn Jenner is not happy with the President she helped elect.
Jenner ignored warnings from her transgender friends and supported Donald Trump and Mike Pence last year, insisting she would not be a “single issue” voter and claiming she could help influence the GOP on LGBT rights.
In just nine months since the Trump presidency took up the mantle, the administration has worked solidly to roll back equality for trans people. Last week, the Trump administration rolled back civil rights protections for transgender employees, and also went to court to defend its plans to ban transgender people from the military.
Jenner tweeted: “Trump administration’s latest in a string of attacks on trans people: trans students, trans service members & now employment protections for trans workers. This systematic gutting of non-discrimination protections for trans people is a disgrace!”
Her comments sparked a collective ‘we told you so’ from the LGBT rights advocates who spent months before the election pointing out the dangers of a Trump-Pence administration for equality.
One commenter wrote: “Yea…. You voted for him. You knew his party feels this way about your community. Don’t look so shocked.”
Another added: “You didn’t just vote for him you were a huge supporter of him throughout the entire election. Don’t fucking be outraged now.”
This user nailed it though with this tweet:
Jenner previously insisted she ‘doesn’t regret’ voting for Trump despite his anti-LGBT agenda.
She said: “As far as LGBT issues, yes, he’s made some mistakes. I don’t support him in everything that he does. But we needed to shake the system up – to, you know, to have career politicians constantly, the Clintons, the Bushes, run this country. We need to get outside that box and shake things up again.”
Jenner had offered herself as a trans ambassador for the Trump administration. She claimed: “Republicans need help understanding LGBTQ issues and I’m here to help!”
When the president repealed an Obama era protection for trans people using the bathroom, Jenner also offered herself as an adviser to Trump, writing: “From one Republican to another, this is a disaster. You made a promise to protect the LGBTQ community. Call me.”
He didn’t.
Jenner was recently confronted by a trans activist on camera over her continual overtures to Trump. Ashlee Marie Preston told Caitlyn: “It’s really fucked up that you continue to support him. What makes me mad is I supported you, and so many of us supported you.”
Caitlyn responded: “You don’t know me.”
Preston responded: “Yes I do. Oh my god. I’m getting so mad… you’re a fucking fraud and a fake.”

October 08, 10:21Am I the only one that can’t address transgenders as women?
It takes a lot more than chopping off your penis to be a woman.
This is not only grammatically wrong but biologically wrong as well.
You don’t have a womb, no ovaries, your breasts are surgically enhanced, even your vagina is not really a vagina.
Some still grow facial hairs and even some transsexual men still go through the pains of monthly cycle and in some cases even get pregnant.
I’m all for people being what they want
….
I can’t question anyone’s choice, because I’ve made some ridiculous choices too. But don’t drag me into this charade, don’t make me address a man that shares my genetics as a she.
This is downright laughable.

October 08, 11:58You simply cannot be this ignorant. You simply can’t. You can’t mouth off so much about your intellectual prowess and come here to spout off this immense amount of ignorance. I ignore you a lot, but this insensitive, prejudicial lump of nonsense you just typed here is the height. You should learn to read and understand a topic thoroughly before you spit out an opinion of it. I want to say I’m surprised that someone who belongs to such a misunderstood minority that is the gay community can be capable of such insensitivity and ignorance on another misunderstood minority but time and time again, right here on Kito Diaries, I have come to learn that there are gay men who harbour even worse bias and prejudice than the homophobes we fight.
Do yourself a favour, Foxydevil and go study the transgender community before you come here to spout the same stupid and uninformed rhetoric that the homophobic majority are pounding them with. Don’t be such an embarrassment.

October 08, 16:30All you did was rant and rant, yet you couldn’t counter any point I made.
If this was a court case I would beat you fair and square.
Do transgenders have vaginas?
No they don’t.
Do they have wombs?
No they don’t.
Can they get pregnant?
No they can’t.
Do they have ovaries?
No they don’t?
Even chimamanda, the woman you adore,
was less complimentary about transgenders, she said they weren’t real women.
She said that gender was more about sociology rather than biology.
That a transgender woman has no idea what it means to be a real woman.
**********
The only embarrassment here is the fact your supposed mentor does not even agree with your stance.
**********
Save the emotional blackmail and give me facts, since you know everything about transgenders and I don’t, give me one good reason I should think of a transgender woman as a woman.
We have cheapened womanhood so much that anyone with severed body parts and a pump in of estrogens with some enhancement surgeries can come up and answer a woman.
A society that would rather be politically correct than honest.
Once again, I have no problem with the way someone wants to live their life. If a transgender person wants to work in my office and he or she is good at their job, I’ll hire them.
If my daughter or son wakes up tomorrow and says he or she wants to become a transgender, I’ll give them the go ahead.
I won’t bully a transgender person and I will help them out if I am in the capacity to if they are under attack but what I will never do is address a transsexual woman as a she.
And I will tell you this again, you know nothing about my personal life. Stop working overtime to paint me bad .
Anyone that knows me, will tell you I’m the most accepting Person they’d ever meet. Culture, religion, tribe, vocation, occupation, I welcome everyone as one. I’m that friend you can unearth all your dirty secrets to and I will help you pack it up and find a safer location to hide it. I have hookers as friends, I have handicaps ,I never judge them ,I never for once make them feel like a second fiddle or they are lacking in any capacity, so that emotional blackmail can never work with me, I know everything about acceptability, what I can’t and will never harbour is delusion.
And I don’t have the gay victim mentality…..
Oh I’m a gay man ,everyone is against me (sorry pal, doesn’t work with me)
I am a freaking gay man and I will never ever ever regard a transsexual woman as a woman.
(you are free to do so) I can’t stop you but you can’t stop me either. You have your opinion, I have mine.
Now if we are speaking of inter sex people, that’s a different story all together.

October 08, 17:14And why do you people keep bringing up this intellectual prowess?
Are you that threatened?
You don’t think I’m intelligent ?
All well and good.
You think my brain is empty?
Fine by me.
Your opinion doesn’t really matter and never will.
My first class result in my cupboard says otherwise.
The lecturing job I turned down to pursue my other interests says otherwise, so why do I need to work overtime to convince an online personality?
You even went ahead to mock my writing skills saying everyone could be what they wanted on the internet.
Then how come all my submissions here turn out to be hits?
Even before I became foxydevil (an active member) ,I’ve been making submissions here since late 2016 with different names not only do the entries generate an absurd amount of comments, it also rakes in quite a sizeable amount of views .
Even in” literotica ” some of my entries are among the most rated.
And these are stories scribbled hastily under ten minutes or so .
With no guidance or tutelage, no writing workshops…
Very soon you are going to publish another story I wrote ,not as “foxydevil ” cos I know you will never post anything written by foxydevil again and people will still rave about how good it is.
Why then should I care about your opinion when the facts keeps proving otherwise.
Make your point without bringing my supposed intelligence or lack of it, it simply makes you look insecure.
The fact you don’t see something doesn’t make it non existent …it simply means some others have better clarity and stronger visions than you do.

October 09, 06:52I have made a point of not getting into spats with people here and because of this I have chosen silence as the best answer to certain comments. However I feel I cannot let your ignorance and stupidity go unchallenged.
It galls me that a gay man as yourself cannot understand what it means to be tolerant. The same arguments you use against transgender people are the ones used by homophobic people for gay men. “God did not create Adam and Steve” “Penis is for vagina” and all that crap. Having faced discrimination, one would think that the first thing you would do is stop and think for a second before doing the same thing to another person. Apparently not. You have not yet matured or developed your psyche enough to display such emotional intelligence.
I am not transgender, but I don’t need to be one to understand what they go through. I have watched their videos on YouTube and listened to them in documentaries. In this I have seen children as young as 3 or 4 who are in distress because of gender dysphoria. I have heard about people who commit suicide because of this. I realise it is the same way I know that I did not choose being gay because of the difficulties it brings, that transgender people don’t go through all the pain they do just for fun. Before you air your opinions on others, try to understand them first. Walk a mile in their shoes if you can, it just may make things clearer to you.
You think you are all that because you have a phone and can string together words to form a sentence. Congratulations on reaching this stage of development but there is some more work to be done.
I have read a lot of your comments here and although you think you are original, you are just following a pattern of some who have come before you. All you do is seek attention and spew random opinions not backed by rational thought or knowledge. They have come and gone and you will too. It is only a matter of time. I can guess that you are still studying, dependent on your parents and do not have responsibilities yet. There is still some growing up left to do and while you are at It, I would advise read more and type less. You will be better for it. I promise you that.

P. S someone tell the nine tail fox that how can you purposely misgender a transwoman you call friend by referring to the person as he and yet say you respect her..
What sort of faux respect is that. .
And a recent study showed Transwomen have parts of their brain more similar to the female than the typical male…

October 11, 10:45Is it just me or is foxy devil just looking for attention, this Post is about Caitlyn and her choice for president, but uncle attention seeker finds a way to make it about him, finds a way to tell us that he has a first class degree and turned down a lecturing job and that he writes on litoritica… and if u have noticed, it’s kinda like a trend, there is a post about something important, but the bitch finds a way to make it about him and goes to say at the end that he doesn’t care what we think about him… it’s more sad than annoying, he probably has no friends.
And it’s just sad hearing a gay man say he does not understand transwomen and u complain when straight men don’t understand gay men…. talk about the story of the pot and the kettle
