Oh, absolutely, says Cher… Also, I think it does… there are some people that are never going to be able to move out of their comfort zone, but I think that when people can see Chaz and see what a wonderful person he is, and kind and funny and all of that, then maybe they could just relax off of what their preconceptions are."

The Bible also says "judge not lest ye be judged", so I guess that means we are in no position to pass judgement. That's God's territory.

CHAZ...hold your head high and let what doufuss Len said to roll off your back, like water off a ducks back. I know it hurt when he called you a penguin, it hurt me also, I don't care what people say or do, there is NO excuse for being cruel to another person! I love you Chaz, keep on keekpin' on. You be Happy!!! I think your mom is super-duper too.

I do not hate the person, only the sin. It is extremely wrong, to encrouage, support, accept, be with these people. Instead of trying to teach them what God has to say and why he says its a sin against him. This will and should never be period, because we will fail as Christians to allow this. Call it whatever you want but Sin is Sin period. Do not be decieved to think its ok with God, Absolutely NOT, never. Are pediphiles going to be allowed to be what they are too? Both are a sin against God and the penalty for sin is death. God teaches us to repent and not die in our sins.

I am touched by Chaz Bono (and love his Mom!) and I'm really touched by his openness and honesty. It couldn't have been easy to live life as a female, recognizing early on that (s)he felt 'different.' He explored endless solutions I'm sure and finally decided to go with his feelings. I think those who judge should just shut their mouths and walk away. This is a very brave person and I'm so happy that he's finally able to truly 'BE HIMSELF!' Best wishes and prayers.

Dear Chaz,
As I watched your body language and your weight. It remine me of one of Coppers' last month show concerning individuals dealing with weight. The doctor spoked about over weight being an emotional issues dealing with pain and/or unhappiness. So, I wondered if U R really "HAPPY!"? Yes, there is nothing more wonderful then being "YOURSELF"! I can only imagine what you have gone through facing prejudes comments for it takes a STRONG individual to stand and face those judging them so, you keep your head up high. Keep fighting and making a different for those who need your strenght to be, WHO THEY FEEL, THEY WERE MEANT TO BE, NO MATTER WHAT THEY LOOKS LIKE ON THE OUTSIDE. LIVE & LET LIVE! Ms. Cher, you continue to speak for your child, for that's what REAL LOVING, MOTHERS' DO UNTIL, THEIR LAST DYING BREATH! "JUST MY PERSONAL OPINION!"God bless U!

It must have been very difficult to be the daughter of an American icon.
