Why is Bruce Jenner getting rid of his Adam’s apple?

In some toe-curling news, Bruce Jenner is reportedly looking to shave off his Adam’s apple.

The idea makes us weak-at-the-knees and cross-eyed at the thought but it has been reported that Jenner is to undergo a laryngeal shave, which would essentially see his Adam’s apple shaved away.

More strange turn of events for another of the Kardashian clan as gossip site TMZ reported on Jenner, a former athletic superstar, was looking into the procedure and is quoted as saying “I just never like my trachea.”

This revelation supports some theories that Jenner is beginning the first stages of gender reassignment – something that many could identify from his progressively effeminate look on appearances on the “Keeping up with the Kardashians.”

The Adam’s apple is mainly a male characteristic and grows in size to support the deeper vocal cords. The medical name for the procedure to reduce the apple in size is called a chondrolaryngoplasty.

Jenner split from his wife Kris in October, proclaiming at the time: “I’m finally free to do what I want and live life the way I want”. This divorce added fuel to the speculation on Bruce Jenner’s gender bending ways.

Bruce is no stranger to cosmetic surgery and has evidently gone under the knife for numerous facial augmentation operations.
