EJ Johnson is now speaking out and revealing something that nobody knew about him. EJ actually considered transitioning after he saw that Caitlyn Jenner was doing it, but instead, Johnson changed his mind. Caitlyn Jenner’s transition was so public that EJ couldn’t ignore it and not think about doing it himself. People shared what EJ will open up and talk about on an upcoming episode of EJNYC.

EJ sits down and talks to his therapist about it all. Johnson shared his thoughts and didn’t really leave much out.

“I just wanted to come in today because I think there’s just a lot going on with gender right now in the world and I think so many things are changing. Sometimes it’s hard being in the middle, kind of in the gray area in my own lane. Now, since everybody’s talking about Caitlyn Jenner and being transgender, people are so quick to say, ‘Oh just because you’re dressing like that means that you’re going to transition to become a woman.'”

EJ Johnson admits that when Caitlyn Jenner made the big decision to become a woman, he did consider it. This made him think a lot about himself. Johnson went on to explain that he made the decision that he doesn’t feel the need to do that, though. Johnson is himself and dresses how he wants. Actually, EJ was recently compared to Kim Kardashian because of a dress he wore, but he wasn’t upset about it. He shared his thoughts about this comparison, and EJ doesn’t mind it at all.

“I don’t really care that I’m being compared to female celebrities. I think it’s an honor. I wouldn’t want to be compared to some random man who’s wearing a tuxedo and I’m wearing a lace jumpsuit – like, it just doesn’t make any sense.”

This won’t be the end of the conversation with this therapist, though. EJ Johnson shared saying, “‘I’m interested to talk about what it means to actually transition – like if you’re going to take that leap or that step, what’s going on mentally that’s telling you, ‘This is what I need to do. Because I don’t feel that way.”

Right now, EJ Johnson doesn’t sound like he has plans to transition, but he may end up changing his mind at some point. It is very obvious that EJ isn’t counting the idea out just yet. He is very happy with himself, but the thought is at least there.

Now one strange thing about EJ Johnson that everyone may not know just yet is that his sister is dating a man he hooked up with once. BET shared the details about what is going on. His sister Elisa is dating a French model named Anthony. EJ explained that Anthony kissed him, and now he is dating his sister. Johnson wasn’t supposed to tell the world about the kiss, but he wanted to make sure everyone knew. Now that it was on reality television, it is not a secret at all.

EJ wants his sister to cut off Anthony and be done with him, but it isn’t that easy considering she already has feelings for him. It will be interesting to see how this all plays out as well. EJ Johnson’s new reality show is full of drama, and everyone is loving it.
