I probably shouldn't even say this, but came across a transphobic joke from a generally nice-guy celebrity on a show from 1989 and it really hit me.
It was over thirty years ago, the celebrity has done more than enough for the trans community to atone for that joke. But to see it come out of the mouth of that guy as a throwaway line. Blargh.
@dolari There's a lot to be said about obsolete and ignorant views and what we didn't know versus what we know now. But yes the old material can sure sting.
@dolari Many comedians fell off my good list for making gluten free jokes, such as Margaret Cho & Trever Noah. I always say the day they mock people who avoid sugar or sodium is the day they are justified to mock people with gluten probs.
