Caitlyn Jenner accepted the Arthur Ashe Courage Award at the ESPYs tonight with a nearly 10-minute acceptance speech that touched on her athletic career as Bruce Jenner, her fear of coming out as transgender to her family and her hopes for a future where trans people can feel comfortable in their own skin.
