Café Con Monica

I tend to stay away from political & religion posts and generally anything that gets people all pissy because I don’t care to hear the drama but I keep seeing all these ridiculous things pop up on Facebook and around the blogging world about Caitlyn Jenner and the Woman of the year award.

First… I think people need to realize that the anger directed at Caitlyn Jenner for accepting an award she didn’t ask to be given makes no damn sense. If you want to be pissed at anyone it should be Glamour Magazine, they chose her.

Second…She has actually done a great deal for the Trans community by being so public with her transition and encouraging Trans people to be who they are.

Third….No one should be saying she isn’t a woman, that is not for any of us to decide other than her God (if she chooses to believe in one). So I think people need to stop all the nasty comments, the hate, the judgement. It is really disgusting to read/see how shitty people can be about things that have no relevance in their lives whatsoever.

With all that said….

I feel as though there are many women who would have been much more deserving of an award. See how easy it was for me to say I disagree with the choice without saying something shitty?

Let’s stop being so damn judgmental and crucifying everyone who doesn’t fit into our boxed-in perceptions of what is right.
