"HOUSTON, TX -- Much has been said about the former Olympic athlete who recently appeared on the cover of a glamour magazine as her true self. Now with the story and video series of Bruce Jenner's transformation to Caitlyn, the serious coverage regarding what it's like to be transgender has shed light into a reality few people dared to talk about.

"I don't know why he wasted so many years, but it's a lot of things. And maybe that's why he didn't come out of the closet at all - because he was married and he had children, you know?" says Elia Chino, speculating as to why Caitlyn took as long as she did to become her own person."
