If you want to tell someone to "stop judging", it would be more relevant to direct it to people saying transgender people make them "feel sick".
its a comment in isolation about a sh1tty EE storyline

no context, no idea if real, in jest, to wind up etc


ie no point getting on your high horse on some "i hate all hate me" crusade

its the internet not the Lords

Freedom of speech doesn't include transphobia and if you think it does then that's a problem you personally need to address instead of using it as a defence whenever somebody is offended by an offensive remark directed towards a minority.

I'm all for freedom of speech but if someone is just being hateful and offensive, they deserve to be called out. Anyone with half a brain cell (and who doesn't actually wish to insult somebody) would be able to state their view in a much more mature way.

IMO racism and homophobia/transphobia etc. is never acceptable, it's called MORAL VALUES.

Has there ever been a transgender cross over storyline, as in a character i.e Stacey Branning wanted to have transgender surgery?

Not in Eastenders but Hayley in Corrie came in as a pre-op and went to Amsterdam or something for the surgery.

I'm sure Hollyoaks has done it at some point or somebody deciding they wanted to become a sandwich or something.
