We love hearing from her!

Caitlyn Jenner has been releasing weekly writings for her WhoSay blog, and this time she's answering questions from her fans and giving us a peek into her journey thus far.

"Hi again. It's Caitlyn. Wow – what a week. Your outpouring after my note last week was incredible. (In fact, so many of you sent me questions and comments that my site crashed!) Even though I can't get back to each and every one of you, I want you to know that I'm reading your kind words and that they mean the world to me. Here are just a few to get us started," the 65-year-old wrote in the intro.

One commenter asked what was the "tipping point" for the reality star to decide to transition, and she was very honest about her lifelong conflicting feelings.

    "I firmly believe that there are intensity levels of being trans. For example, a boy at a young age – 4 or 5 years old – might refuse to wear guy clothes and will only wear dresses. Not as a one-time thing or as just dress-up play, but insistently, every day saying, "I'm a girl." They can't – and won't – hide their true identity, even at that young age. Then there are others, like me, who can (kind of) live with it for a long time, even though it's very uncomfortable. I had all of the issues, but I was growing up in a very different time, and I had no information. Meanwhile, I had all of my diversions – sports ... this ... that ... married ... family – but after 65 years, here I was right back with the same problems that I had when I was 10 years old, and I had to finally do something about that."


Another fan asked what her favorite part about becoming Caitlyn had been thus far.

    "Just being able to be myself. Recently I went on a trip with some of my new friends and I had such a wonderful time. I packed for the first time as just Caitlyn – nobody else – which is the first time I've ever done that. I was gone for five days and had such a fantastic experience with all of these girls who have all been through the same thing. We had so many stories to tell. We had so many things that we were all dealing with. It was just truly a liberating experience. I knew then that I could never go back."


Cait concluded her write-up by expressing how well her transition has been received by the public, and how grateful she was for the huge outpouring of support!

    "As I mentioned before, it's been both eye-opening and difficult to see firsthand what so many members of the trans community have had to go through just to be themselves. I hope to help raise awareness of these hardships so that it becomes a less painful process going forward. That said, the future looks bright. I knew that my transition would get some response, but I certainly never expected all of this. It's honestly been incredibly positive. I've met so many accepting people, including many through the "Ask Me Anything" section on my site."


She is really blossoming!
