It's not the Paper.

Can you or any of the other excusers for trans jokes which are obviously based on transphobia sink any lower ?
Stop making excuses for ignorance and prejudice. Whoever he meant it at,
and more probability he meant it to have something to do with Luke A than he did not, it was still an anti trans joke.

Trans people and others who are decent are sick of people thinking it's ok to use them as something to call freaks or to have a laugh at.

We don't deride you and poke fun at you now do we ?

It was bigotry pure and simple.
And it's serious cos for some who carry out that just as a joke
they can physically attack even murder when they've had something to drink.

A lot of TS s have been attacked/murdered in UK and his or you yourself's bigotry cannot be let off the hook
or excused away as just a joke or it was the papers fault etc.

Ignorant people need educating if they'll care enough about others esp when they are attacked/murdered to listen.

If they don 't listen then they should be treated with disdain

and maybe Benedict should be booted off the prog to show Channel 5 is not ok with bigotry against TS s
just as has been done by CH 4 in past over racism,

but I guess he won't be as TS s are the most bigoted against group these days

and they'd be worried about losing the viewers who enjoy treating us as freaks and having a laugh at us (excusing their own bigotry not being mature enough to admit behind the scenes).
