I remember watching TV...
and on the news they had a report from
the Orange County Transgender Association.
On the average of around one a week,
somewhere in the United States
an individual is undergoing an operation
to change his or her sex.
The operation has become much more prevalent
than the general public has realised.
I called him up
and said that I was looking for a therapist.
I couldn't tell him my name or who I was.
And for the first time,
I could really kind of sit down and try to,
with the professional, try to... figure myself out.
It was hard for me to understand at first.
Started taking hormone pills
and had electrolysis to get rid of the beard
and...
uh...
I'll never forget
just having to get up out of the middle of class
in sixth grade...
uh, because I was just about to break down in tears
and nobody knew why.
And I just got up and ran out of the room.
And I just went and cried in the hallway.
But wasn't because my dad was gonna transition,
it was...
I was afraid my father was going to transition
into someone and go somewhere
and I would never see my father again.
Yeah, those were, those were tough times.
I tried to transition,
but I was too scared.
Too scared.
Five, six months later, I met Kris.
And she was great for me.
Kind of pulled me out of my funk
and get me going,
getting back into life as Bruce.
I can't do the other thing,
so let's just be a good Bruce.
Kris, will you have Bruce to be your husband?
Will you pledge yourself to him
-For love and honour? -I will.
Here we go! One, two, three, smile!
Big smiles.
Here it is. A romantic kiss
for my beautiful pregnant wife
on our property.
Okay? Are you ready?
Here comes our kids. They're so excited
about the first day of school.
Here they come.
And we'll go with Khloé, first.
Now, Khloé, I know, you're so excited
about your first day of school
Uniform girl, here's Kimberley. Yes...
I loved being a dad, I loved carpooling kids,
I loved giving them advice
and bringing all these kids up.
...thing we have on the calendar
is the puppet show.
My, God.
...three, go!
Hi, Kylie.
But the issue is not going away.
...ever happens, I always want you to know
that Daddy loves you,
and I think you're just a wonderful little girl
I ever kissed.
-We're still recording. -Okay.
Now, what do we have to say?
We have to say, "Hi, everybody,
it's Christmas 1997!"
Oh, my gosh, she's going so fast.
She's going so fast.
I was experimenting a lot.
And I thought maybe I can survive
by just cross-dressing behind closed doors
and still keep the old Bruce around.
...of the race, we've got Brandon, Brody,
and all the Jenner kids here...
Brody's here?
I remember one time
I was at the Marriot in Orlando, Florida,
and all I had to do all day
is give one one-hour presentation.
I had the rest of the time to myself.
And I thought, okay, I can sneak out,
and get in the car, just drive around.
Just that little bit of freedom.
Drove around for an hour and came back.
And I'm walking through the lobby
towards the elevator,
and kind of going by the bar.
And this guy comes running up to me.
Says, "I love trans women."
Ran down the hall, slammed the door,
and my heart was pounding and I was scared to death.
And I'm thinking,
that was so close to getting caught.
But I learned
I was very comfortable that way.
Thank you very much.
But then to show...
it was an immediate, an immediate change.
The world was different now.
