The 65-year-old made the revelation during a special with Diane Sawyer on ABC’s “20/20” Friday night, reports The Huffington Post.
“I’m me. I’m a person. This is who I am. I’m not stuck in anybody’s body.My brain is much more female than male,” he said. “For all intents and purposes, I am a woman. People look at me differently. They see you as this macho male, but my heart and my soul and everything that I do in life it is part of me, that female side is part of me. That’s who I am. I was not genetically born that way … as of now I have all the male parts and all that kind of stuff so in a lot of ways we’re different, but we still identify as female. And that’s very hard for Bruce Jenner today. Why? I don’t want to disappoint people.”
He said being on a show like “Keeping Up With the Kardashians” is not a hindrance; it puts him on a platform to be able to have real impact.
“We’re going to change the world,” he told Sawyer. “I really firmly believe that we’re going to make a difference in the world.”
