Chastity Bono, the civil rights advocate,  journalist author and musician is in the early stages of changing her gender from female to male.  The child of legendary entertainers Sonny and Cher,  Chaz (as she will be referred to) began the process earlier this year shortly after her 40th birthday.

According to publicist Howard Bragman,”after many years of consideration, Chaz has made the courageous decision to honor his true identity.  Adding ” it is ‘Chaz’s’ hope that his choice to transition will open the hearts and minds of the public regarding this issue, just as his ‘coming out’ did nearly 20 years ago”.

After reading about this, I have to wonder what the hell is wrong with Chastity Bono.  I call her Chastity because to my knowledge, the transformation is STILL in its infancy, so knock it off with the Chaz bit.  As an ‘out’ gay man, I can honestly say I would never consider having such surgery to become a woman.  I am comfortable in my own skin, which it sounds like Chastity is not.  And what happens when the transormation is complete?  Will she still have sex with women?  Would’nt that make her straight?  Would’nt she have to have sex with men now, because she will be a man, but STILL gay??  Where are my fu*king Tylenol?

I have also read that Bono “is hopeful that his (her) privacy and very personal decisions will be respected during this time.”

Uh, Excuse me, but you should have thought about that before going public with your decision to have the procedure in the FIRST PLACE!!!!  And now you want your privacy to be respected?  You couldn’t have waited until AFTER the procedure was complete before blabbing about it to the press???

Even Adam Lambert waited until after American Idol was done before ‘coming out’ publicly.  Even though nobody in their right mind was even surprised.

It was nice to read that Sonny’s widow, congresswoman Mary “loves and supports you”,  but Sonny must be rolling over in his grave!!   And I’d love to hear Mom’s opinion on it.  But then again,  how could Cher have anything negative to say when it comes to reconstructive surgery, right??

And by the way, is the estimated $100,000.00 that it allegedly costs to do all this; covered by her health care provider??

Oh, well.  You Go, Girl!  Oooops, sorry.  You Go Boy!!!

Until Next time!

You got me, Babes!!
