Misc It's official: Bruce Jenner is a chick

**Bufkin** · 01-31-2015, 07:16 AM

His changing look has been a much-buzzed-about topic for months, and now PEOPLE has confirmed that Bruce Jenner has been quietly making a very personal change. The former Olympian will soon be living life as female.

"Bruce is transitioning to a woman," says a source close to the family. "He is finally happy and his family is accepting of what he's doing. He's in such a great space. That's why it's the perfect time to do something like this."

And according to a different Jenner insider, the 65-year-old reality star is filming his momentous journey, to be shared with viewers on a docu-series this year. "It will air when he is ready to be open about his transition," the source tells PEOPLE. "But he's acting more and more confident and seems very happy."

Jenner's much-documented physical appearance (he's been photographed with longer hair, manicured nails and wearing makeup) has led to much speculation, but according to the insider, Jenner's decision to transition slowly was made in part so that his family would have time to adapt to the change.

"He's being very smart about and also respectful about his transition," the insider says. "Instead of completely shocking everyone, his changes have been subtle, and his family has had the chance to slowly get used to his new looks and life."

And his family, including children Cassandra, 34, Burt, 36 (with ex wife Chrystie Crownover ) and sons Brandon, 33 and Brody, 31 (with ex wife Linda Thompson), as well as daughters Kendall, 19 and Kylie, 17 (with Kris Jenner) are adjusting to the new Bruce. "The [kids'] concern seems to be Bruce's happiness, and he acts very pleased with his new life," says the insider.

Admits the family source: "It is an intense thing. Of course not everyone is 100 percent on board. Different people have different reactions. But everybody loves him."

When asked about Jenner on ET, his stepdaughter Kim Kardashian simply said, "I think everyone goes through things in life, and I think that story and what Bruce is going through, I think he'll share whenever the time is right." And when reached by PEOPLE, son Burt would only say his father is "doing awesome."

"The family is really giving this space and time to Bruce. This is his story and they want him to tell the world the way he wants," the source close to the family says. "They really want to empower him to tell his story so that hopefully he can help other people too. That's the goal."

Now it appears that Jenner, finally happy in his own skin, will soon be ready to live life out in the open. "He has come out to those closest to him," says the family source. "He's so happy and excited. He gets to lay down a huge bag of bricks. He's been through a dark period and is coming out on the other side."

Numerous requests for comment from Jenner and his representatives were met with no reply.

I think you picked The God Hypothesis as your username because your friends and family knowing that you are an atheist isn't enough. You need to spread your lack of belief onto the world wide web.

I respect that. You're like the Christian who gets the giant cross tattooed on his bicep, or the Bible verse that he doesn't actually know. I firmly believe that all religions deserve to have their douchebag representation.

Thanks!! You seem nice.

Edit:

FTR I do hear what you are implying, and the user name isn't the greatest... but 5 years ago when I picked my name I was spending a lot of time on here lurking and reading all the religious arguments back and forth and had just finished reading a few books by Strobel called A Case for Christ/Faith - and was in the middle of Dawkins book the God Delusion - kind of feeling my way through and was amazed at the interesting discussion on CP. I picked an agnostic username - meant to mean "searching" and remain to this day unaffiliated but open minded to all things I don't pretend to know. Its by name a Chiefs board - but is also where I get my news, laughs, media, etc..

Also Bufkin "#1ChiefFan!1!!" was taken and a heads up: Hypothesis- a proposition, or set of propositions, set forth as an explanation for the occurrence of some specified group of phenomena, either asserted merely as a provisional conjecture to guide investigation (working hypothesis) or accepted as highly probable in the light of established facts.

I find it hilarious when people get verses from Leviticus tattooed on themselves.

Not official. You cannot change your genetics.

They may make him a hatchet wound, but he's still gonna be a male.

New episode this Monday, and the season finale is on the 9th I believe. I'll give the nod to Ashley. Chris has obviously shown so far that he has a weak spot for blondes, and Becca (probably the hottest) is legally reeruned.

Speaking of sex changes... You should detach your vagina immediately.

Its a lot easier for me to understand gay people that have been gay all of their lives, but these guys that get married and have kids and dont come out until they're 50-60 are hard to figure.

Well they come from an era where being gay was unacceptable. It is my guess they fought the urge and thought they could put it in their past. When I was in high school we assumed the guys in drama were queer because of how they acted. We treated them like shit. I was never violent towards them but knew guys that were. Mocking them was completely acceptable and not really discouraged by teachers other then "knock it off" type responses~
