Wait, what? I thought he was just a crossdresser?
>>5874740
SHE
don't misgender, please
>>5874740
He is - lives as a man, is a man, doesn't say he isn't a man but dresses like a woman. Apparently, he thinks the word for that is transgender.
>>5874761
No, he very specifically says "transvestite". In basically every show he's had where he's made a joke about his crossdressing, that's the term he's used. If anything, I think it's more likely that whoever wrote that article misquoted him.
>>5874756
He.

I thought transgender was the umbrella word for transvestites, transsexuals, nb/gq, and so forth? Has that changed?
>>5878594
it is yet isnt. young people dont know their history and/or constantly rewrite it. to a lot of people it now means something something gender-identity hormones something.
if izzy actually said that quote im guessing modern culture got to him and hes now affirmed his new clique membership. I wouldnt be surprised; he once described crossdressing as part of his "inner femininity".

>feminist podcasts over a bassline
i think i would actually listen to that, at least once
for the experience
>>5874726
Straight people like to try and lie to queer people. Surprise!
What? I remember one show where he made a specific point of explaning the difference between being transgendered and being a transvestite, and how he was the latter. Maybe the newssite fucked up?
>>5874780
Am I the only MtF that thinks the same as well? I'm not going to expect my friends and family to call me a girl while I still look like a boy for the most part. Once I have boobs and a girly face, then I will be annoyed if you keep on calling me a boy. I mean, not that I actually WANT to be called a boy, but it's stupid to expect people that I've known my whole life to start calling me by my girl name/use female pronouns while I'm flat as a pancake.

Femgen will tell U to keep calling them boys. They'll get annoyed if you call them anything else?
That any better than Izzard and the other snowflakes?
he's just run 27 marathons, i wouldnt be surprised if he wasnt clear in his head or thoughts, rambled, and got misquoted
i fucking hate Izzard, just another old smug rich cunt telling people what to do, no different from anyone else, riding on the coattails of others to shout loudly
literally stephen fry in heels. fucking cunt
>>5879753
He's a real creep, yeah.

He calls himself a "transgender guy", which is kinda dumb because that would generally refer to an AFAB who identifies as male. But eh I'm not gonna go all grammar Nazi on him, he's Eddie fucking Izzard for Christ sake. He's too awesome to attack for shit like this.
>>5879871
Old man doing that is wrong.
>>5879876
Doing what?
>>5874773
In the past few years he has been calling himself transgender.
If anything he's dressing in female-coded clothing less these days.
I don't know what's going on. He's planning on going into politics soon, so wanting to hook himself up on the trans-rights movement I guess.
>>5879833
are you sure tho?
>>5880150
99.99%
>>5874780
You know what, I actually agree with this. I'll use whatever pronoun someone looks like, whether they're trans or not. Does that make me a shitlord?
>>5879871
its funny because the people that care for gender the most are the people that say we shouldnt care
>>5874726
People don't seem to get Transvestites and Transexuals are different things.
>>5880174
what the hell is this shitlord meme people keep pushing? ive never heard it used by anyone except bigots trying to be ironic
>>5880332
All of this.
But when he came out as crossdresser 20 years ago he was so brave. You fags don't know what he had to go through. Legbutts these days have it easy.
