Caitlyn Jenner has the ability to impact every generation. Here is someone who was already an American hero to millions of people, whether it was through sport or being a part of America’s modern family dynasty. But winning a gold medal in the world’s most grueling competition wasn’t enough for her. Because now she is doing it again, and this time it’s much bigger. It’s as if everything in her life has been leading up to this moment. While the reaction to her revelation has been mostly positive, no one can deny that not everyone understands it. But here’s the thing, her story transcends the transgender community. It doesn’t really matter whether you agree with her actions because it’s much bigger than that. It’s a message to all of us, whether you are transgender, gay, straight, in a bad relationship, or unhappy in your job.
