When Jon Stewart reported on the Caitlyn Jenner news, he was initially taken aback.

Namely, now that Jenner is a woman in our society, she is subjected to the harsh standards American women are held to.

Specifically, Stewart pointed out how members of the media were dissecting Caitlyn's beauty choices and judging her on her age.

Once again, Stewart hit the nail right on the head.
