Apple Autocorrects Users Who Want to Call Jenner ‘Bruce’

[Geee]

Brietbart:

Bruce Jenner won the Male Athlete of the Year Award from the Associated Press in 1976. Last night, Jenner won ESPN’s Arthur Ashe Courage Award as a female.

 

Confused? Siri’s not.

 

Apple’s self-described “humble virtual assistant” insists that the man who won an Olympic gold medal in the decathlon, posed for Playgirl, and fathered six kids is now a woman. Ask Siri Bruce Jenner’s sex, and the iPhone know-it-all definitively explains: “The answer is female.”

 

Like ESPN, Siri knows the correct answers. Celebrating Jenner with a “courage” award appears about the least courageous of acts. Ostensibly, awards honor another. In reality, those giving the honors really honor themselves. Why else does Congress pass resolutions praising Mother Teresa and Nelson Mandela or the president pose for pictures with every championship team?

 

It’s not about whether Caitlyn Jenner belongs in the men’s or ladies room. It’s about Apple and ESPN announcing that they belong in the club.
