There's different levels of courage, bud. Nobody is comparing Caitlyn to a man willing to risk his own life to save others. However, young men out there that might be having the same issue that Caitlyn was having but are scared to take that step, might look at her ordeal and find her actions courageous. It might inspire them to make the change at a much earlier age than Caitlyn, and give them more time to live life the way they feel comfortable.
I'm sure this hasn't all been an easy road of love and attention for Caitlyn as you guys all seem to want to believe. I'm sure she's had all sorts of nasty hateful shit sent her way through twitter and such, and probably has even had nasty shit yelled at her as she's walked down the street. And why? Because she wanted to live a life that felt more normal to her? Yeah, it took some balls to make that move.
