Culture: From Chastity to Chaz Bono: Cher’s daughter is now her son

  • 20 years ago, Chastity Bono, the daughter of Sonny and Cher (who, by the way, was named after a terrible movie her parents made) came out as a lesbian to her parents. She’s been an icon of the movement ever since she publicly came out in 1995. source
  • Today, he informed the public that she plans to take it a step further with gender reassignment surgery. “Yes, it’s true — Chaz, after many years of consideration, has made the courageous decision to honor his true identity,” said his publicist, Howard Bragman. source
