Caitlyn Jenner to be Honored with the Arthur Ashe Courage Award at The 2015 ESPYS on ABC July 15

---------------------------
Almost 40 years ago, Bruce Jenners Olympic success came as a result of strengthening both his mind and body leading to his status as one of the worlds greatest athletes, but the decision to publicly come out as a transgender woman took a different kind of courage and acceptance of ones self.
To celebrate that bravery, ESPN today announced that Jenner will be presented with the Arthur Ashe Courage Award at The 2015 ESPYS Presented by Capital One.
Presented annually to individuals whose contributions transcend sports, the Arthur Ashe Courage Award is the pinnacle of the sports celebration, which will be televised Wednesday, July 15, at 8 p.m. ET on ABC from Nokia Theatre L.A. LIVE.

I believe their petitions will be received but rejected.

in other words, as with most things offensive to lgbt and their allies, they do it because it's mean and they can.
