I'm sorry but I have no idea why you keep saying "check out a comedy club". You are further invalidating your point.

Man, I was hoping you'd just stop, and your comment just kept going on and on and on.

Fuck that "comedian." Fuck everyone defending this piece of shit too.

Yeah, being bald and being transgender ain't even the same thing.

You should read into these things before you comment on them.

I guess the difference here is they were at a console demonstration, not a comedy routine. There's certain expectations when you elect to go see a standup comedian. But when you're "tricked" (for lack of a better word) into seeing one those expectations are different. Some people may not like the insult comedy, and so…

Don't talk what you don't understand. Transgenderism has nothing to do with "pretend". It's a serious psychological/neurological subject matter that deserves as much respect as any other medical condition.

No.

You probably don't get the same amount of irrational hatred on a daily basis for being bald as transgender people get.

A transgendered individual can (and often will) go through several stages of transition; when the physical sex of a person does not match their expressed gender identity, that individual has every right to say, "Hey, I'm X instead of Y."

...and we have a duty, through common courtesy and simple humanity, to accept that…

I think it's ok to pretend sometimes but if someone is biologically male...I'm inclined to call them a male. I won't bash them for wanting to dress up like a woman and like pretty things, whatever their case is, but to completely write off the gender? Eh...

No. Stop. Shut up. Cease and desist. Go away.

So that makes it okay for others to refer him to it as "it" and "thing"?

Some comedians try to get laughs anyway they can. Most likely his career isn't going anywhere.

I adore the comments on Articles like this, shows me which posters to avoid.

This isn't really a problem with the video game community, more a bad choice of comedian to hire for the show.

Why the hell do people have to be such asshats? Not just in the video game industry (although quite a lot seem to congregate there) but anywhere? I just don't understand it.

Every time we try to say "no really, video games and video game developers do treat women as equal, it's not as bad as before" then shit like this happens and I want to go bang my head on a wall.

Seriously. I am starting to believe nothing good ever comes out of Florida. Also terrible father. He has not even an iota of an idea on what his kid is playing.

Thank you for your valuable contribution to the topic.
