The much-awaited moment of truth was unleashed when Bruce Jenner came out and revealed what really happened and what is happening with his life and the so-called gender transition.

"Yes for all intents and purposes, I'm a woman," Jenner said in the much-awaited ABC special with Diane Sawyer. "My brain is much more female than it is male. . .It's hard for people to understand that, but that's what my soul is."
