I’ve been to many different places across the world include Mexico, Japan and even France. France being my favorite because of your interesting architectural buildings.

Over the past few years, the issues faced by people who identify as transgender (gender dysphoric) have gained momentum in the media. From Caitlyn Jenner to which bathroom to use, transgender people have made a lot of progress in addressing

Dr. Money argued it was possible for a person to change gender successfully through surgery, socialisation and hormone replacement. Unaware Dr. Money had never attempted this before, Bruce’s parents, Ron and Janet Reimer consented. On 3rd July 1967 Bruce was surgically castrated and renamed Brenda.

A hero to us is someone who influences the general public in a positive way even though they aren’t physically there. We consider Beyonce as our hero because she leaves a great impact on the music industry and teaches women and girls to not be ashamed of themselves.She also gives an image of self love and respect by not being ashamed of her body. Beyonce is the type of person that actually admits that she isn’t perfect and by doing this it gives something other people can relate with . This makes her of a more realistic hero to them. Beyonce is also a supporter of the LGBT community which tells people that she doesn’t judge.Not only that, through her music her she teaches young girls and women to be powerful and to know that they are are just

First of all David Reimer (then known as Bruce) was genetically born a boy however in 1966 his penis was destroyed by accident during a circumcision, his parents then took him to a psychologist and sexologists John Money. Money advised the parents to change the sex of their child since penis reconstruction wasn’t an option then, he was a supporter of the idea that gender wasn’t predetermined genetically and was from the influence of the environment.

After finalizing the divorce of him and Kris Jenner in early 2015, a 20/20 interview with Diane Sawyer came out in April of 2015, releasing the news that Bruce came out as a transgender woman. Caitlyn said that she had dealt with gender dysphoria since her youth and that, she cross dressed for many years and also took hormone replacement therapy, but stopped after her relationship with Kris Jenner in the early 1990s became more serious. Caitlyn recounts having permission to explore her gender identity on her own from Kris, but because of not knowing the best way to talk about the issues they faced about this situation of wanting to become a woman, it lead to the deterioration of the 23-year-long

Imagine back to your childhood. Life was probably simple for most of us, being able to play with our friends and having a stable home. Obviously not everyone has a perfect childhood, but what if someone was extremely poor, went back and forth from homes, was raped at age 9, and got pregnant at age 14, just to have their son be still born. Yet with all this happening, still became one of the most successful people in the world. Who is this person I am referring to? It is Oprah Winfrey.

In the article “America’s Transition” Steinmetz reports that George traveled to Denmark to begin his transition to a woman named Christine Jorgensen (40). In the 1950s the transition from male-to-female was very rare. The subject of transition from an assigned sex at birth to the opposite was taboo. After Christine’s story was published in the New York Daily News and Time, American society began to question the definition of gender and why George was now Christine. Deceptively like today, as Time magazine mentions, “history is filled with people who did not fit society’s definition or gender (40).” Media talks about transgender, and it seems new, but it is not. Transgender is not something that just occurred today and had never been heard of before. This subject is just now coming out into the open more often than usual. In parallel to the “coming out” from transition, society is not far from the 1950’s because there is still stereotypes and discrimination against the transgender

While on The Bachelorette, it was obvious that Jordan Rodgers doesn't get along with his brother Aaron of the Green Bay Packers. Aaron never showed up on the show when it was time for the family to meet JoJo Fletcher, who would later become his fiance. People shared that Aaron Rodger's family is now speaking out about why they don't get along. It doesn't look like this family is ever going to end up fixing their issues. His father Ed Rodgers recently did an interview and shared some of the details about what is going on with their family.

It was New Year’s Eve 2014 and “Billy Johnson” (real name omitted) was driving home after a small get-together with his friends to celebrate the start of the upcoming New Year. Johnson left the gathering around 2:30 a.m. and began his 2.5 hour drive home. When halfway through the drive he was hit head on by a drunk driver at 63 mph. Johnson ended up dying at the hospital later that night. He left behind a wife and four small children all under the age of 10. Within an instant, the lives of his wife and children were changed forever. “Kayla Johnson” (real name omitted) suddenly became a widow and struggled to figure out how she would provide for her family all by herself. You see, she was a stay-at-home mom and Billy was the sole provider for their family. But now that he was gone, she was lost. Over a year went by, and Kayla still found herself struggling after the loss of Billy. As a result, in the spring of 2016 Kayla filed a wrongful-death lawsuit against the drunk driver who killed Billy. It was a long and difficult lawsuit and trial for Kayla and her family to go through but in the fall of 2017 Kayla was awarded $3 million dollars.

Caitlyn, like many transgender individuals, has struggled with guilt and shame because she does not wish to disappoint the people in her life. There have been cases where adults and children have suicidal thoughts because they cannot digest the feeling of potentially being alienated. Caitlyn Jenner, formerly known as Bruce Jenner from the television series, “Keeping up with the Kardashians”, struggled with severe anxiety all of her life. She was born a male, but desired to be everything a woman is. Around 1976, Caitlyn was a star Olympian that everyone looked up to and sought as a source of inspiration.

They were all totally fine with her news. Janelle Brown shared how they felt saying, "We’re just happy she’s figured out who she is. It’s tremendous when you see a kid do that." Kody Brown loves his daughter no matter what and shared saying, "You come from an Old Testament religion, you are not excited that your child comes out. I thought about this years ago, and I made a decision. My job as a dad is to love and respect and not to judge."

Communication is a process that allows us to construct identities based on the interpretation and intention of speech acts. Caitlyn Jenner, formerly known as Bruce Jenner, spent most her life identified by her master identity as a cis-white-male and until a few years ago she adopted the interactional identity of a transgender female. In this paper, I will demonstrate how various forms of speech acts build, remain and/or change the master and interactional identity of Caitlyn Jenner as well as her relationships to others. To do so I will explain how Caitlyn Jenner seeks advice from her close family member Scott Disick to help her understand the variety of speech acts coming from both her private and public life: ranging from Scott who demonstrate face redress and accept her based on her new interaction identity as a female, while also dealing with the face threats that come from those (particularly males) who only see her as her previous master identity as a male.
