      You might not have found the episode funny but where exactly is the transphobia? Or the misogyny?

      If you don't understand the misogyny behind sexual stereotypes, then 🤷

      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

      Again: I’m not sure you got the joke. Let me help you here: the butt of the joke is the transphobe. It’s an anti-transphobic episode, not an anti-trans episode.

      The show may be making fun of Douglas but it's also obviously making fun of April, and April gets the worse end of it The joke is that Douglas has blown his chance at happiness, sure, but the show also treats the fact that he was happy with April with mocking disdain

      Douglas is, in the eyes of the show's POV, a pathetic boor who doesn't really appreciate the feminine virtues (which are represented by Jen, who despite her flaws manages to keep the IT department going with her common sense and emotional intelligence)

      April doesn't have any of Jen's positive traits She embodies the idea that trans women are a "man's caricature of womanhood" - she dresses way too sluttily and is willing to put out on the first date, and otherwise has Doug's same boorish, classless tastes

          The show clearly treats this with a mocking air, it's pathetic that Douglas doesn't catch on and that this is all he wants from a relationship All they do is "get shitfaced and shag", they never have a serious conversation, the one time she tries he's barely paying attention

          And it may treat April's dilemma as tragic but it ultimately treats her as tragically deluded and wanting the impossible When she starts screaming at Douglas "I'm a woman! What you see in front of you is a woman!" it's treating her as irrational, hysterical
