“Recently a lot of rumors about me have been dissolved, questions have been asked. In order not to induce fog, I will answer everyone: yes, I am a transgender.
First of all, I want to say that I tried to keep this secret until my sons finished school. Due to the fact that now it does not matter, I made my prize.
I have long shared this information with my family, close friends, and the powerlifting community. But I also understand that for many of you my news will come as a shock. I have kept the secret throughout my life and it was very difficult for me. Frankly, at some point in time, I was thinking about suicide.
I never wanted or asked such a fate and struggled with my thoughts to the last. In the end, I reached the point where I felt comfortable in secret desires, regardless of what people would think.
Over the past 24 hours, I have received a huge amount of words of support from my family, friends, fans, and just strangers. I want to thank each of you! Honestly, it means more to me than I could describe in words. ”
Next comes advertising on your Instagram account and the postscript that Mat will now call herself Jane Marie.
After the disclosure of information to the champion, a lot of likes, comments, including and angry. Various news sites began to publish “sensational news”, calling Matt Kroc, however, not a powerlifter, but a bodybuilder … Understand, agree with what the “lifting” differs from the “building” none of the inhabitants and did not intend to. Although, on the other hand, what’s the difference … Anyway, the person from a bodybuilding environment.
In one of the numerous interviews, “Jane Marie” replied that she is LESBIAN, i.e. Those letters with offers to eat borscht from men, which he/she receives, come to the wrong address.
Summary: Matt Kroc can live, of course, as he wants, because he does not touch anyone. Comfortable to him – well, okay … but sorry for his sons.
Please don’t ever let anyone make you feel like there is something wrong with you because they lack the ability to understand you. People in general have a tendency to fear what they do not understand. This fear often leads to hate and people will use this to justify mistreating you. Realize this and recognize they are the ones with the problem not you. “
