No I don’t. I’m a non-native speaker of English over the age of 25 so some things seem to get lost in translation. If you’re saying I’m a fan of Graham Linehan you’d be right. There are few men in puplic discourse at the moment who come close to his courage & integrity.

Lolwut? Dude tanked his career and personal life because a private company took an episode of a TV show he wrote out of it's rotation after criticism from their customers. An episode that was not just transphobic but deeply misogynistic, might I add.

The whole 'joke' of that episode was that Douglas only found happiness with a trans woman who shared his love of beer, football, and other 'blokey' things. As if women only enjoy pretty dresses and French lace.

I totally do, that’s why I don’t tell children who don’t conform to them that they were born in the wrong body. The IT Crowd is a comedy not a how-to guide. The episode was taking the piss out of sex stereotypes and transphobia, I’m ok with that.

Making a joke with a message of, "Obviously if someone likes sports, they are really a man, no woman would like sports," is misogyny. It's just that simple.

We all just avoiding talking about how the end of that episode is Matt Berry repeatedly punching Lucy Montgomery in the face or what

It’s an over the top representation of a fight in the style of action movies - do you think joke representations of fights are unique to this episode? Or do you oppose to any depiction of violence at all?

I oppose the depiction of a man beating up a woman as some kind of triumphant defense of his masculinity
