1. Well put...

Each of us experiences our own life problems.

Each of us must learn to deal with what we are presented with.

Comparing who is "braver" says more about the commenter than it does about the person/s being commented about.

2. Like I posted on another thread, I haven't see much in Jenner's life that I consider admirable

Great athlete, sure. Cheesy actor. Married into a family of circus clowns. Republican, reckless driver who caused someone's death. Chain smoker. Came out as transgender. Okay, more power to her, I hope she's happier now, but she lost any credibility with me years ago. Has enough money and entourage to shield her from any real negative impacts, and will make more from the upcoming reality show, interviews, magazine covers, etc. I see a lot of business calculation. Not much bravery.

3. NOTHING is a contest. There is more than enough for everyone.

If people realized this and started cooperating instead of competing, all our problems would be solved and everyone could live as they wish. Magical thinking? Maybe, but I like the idea.

5. sorry, I don't view Caitlyn Jenner as particularly brave or admirable

I'm glad for her that she can live her life as she wishes, but that's as far as it goes
