Caitlyn Jenner is a Role Model

Date 2016-12-09

It was a long time ago when Caitlyn Jenner won a gold medal at the Olympics back in 1976 as Bruce Jenner. That victory in the decathlon made her a positive role model for many people in America.

 

Jenner’s courageous acts did not stop at the Olympics, as she had the strength to come out and live life as a woman. It has made her a hero to many people who are struggling to come out of the closet. Jenner went through a lot, from the fear of how people would treat her to the many consequences of being transexual.

 

Caitlyn is used her status as “world's greatest athlete,” after completing the decathlon, to become a television personality. Jenner is now in film, television, auto racing, writing and business, even as a Playgirl cover model.

 

Jenner officially changed her gender and name on September 25, 2015. She has been referred to as the “most famous openly transgender woman in the world”. In fact, Jenner starred in a reality television show titled, “I Am Cait” that focused on the transition trans people go through.

 

The feminine name Caitlyn is a variant of Caitlin, which is an Anglicized version of Caitlín. The given name Caitlín is the Irish form of Cateline, which is the Old French version of Katherine. The name Katherine is from the Greek name Aikaterine and the meaning behind the name is debated: it could be derived from the name Hekaterine that means “each of the two”; it could be from the goddess Hecate; or it could be from the Greek name meaning “torture”; and even more.
