I'm so damn tired of people saying Caitlyn Jenner isn't courageous, or comparing her to a war hero and saying that's courage, and what she did isn't.

Both are. It's not a test. Courage is something small as a child getting over their fear and riding that horse or petting that dog or saying hello.

Courage is standing up for yourself to those bullies, even if they might beat the hell out of you for it.

Courage is coming out as who you are, and changing your life because of it, whether it's self harm, gender, or even just saying you're different with your ideas and how you look at things, and not being afraid of it.

Courage is fighting for what you believe in and care about. Whether it be in war across the sea, or the war going on in your own town, even if it's fighting for your family against the gangs around your house.

Courage isn't about a test of how good it is of what you did. It's of doing something that scares you, or doing something brave, or not hiding anymore, etc.

Quit comparing people and telling only one of them they have courage.
