Shock horror! 80s gender bender thinks gender fluidity is ‘a load of crap.’

The pile on doesn’t seem to have begun yet, although I think the genderists might have a hard job picking on Mister Marilyn.

Fucking yass!!

That's how you do GNC, fanbloodytastic.

And he's not backing down, he's doubled down and promoted the stonewall petition!

Kirk Brandon was another one who denied his relationship with Boy George. Very shoddy of him.

IGNORE THE WEETABIX ONE...THE REST ARE GOOD

How very dare you!

Marilyn, darling, come to Mumsnet and tell the heretics here what a good breakfast looks like!

Anybody who tries to take on Marilyn has no idea how brave he is and the shit he took

Boy George tweets back and forth with Marilyn quite regularly. It would be great if he could get behind this too. He’s definitely GC I think, reading between lines what he’s said in the past.

Rufusthebewilderedreindeer · 30/01/2019 15:19

That should do it

Rufusthebewilderedreindeer · 30/01/2019 15:19

Oh christ bernard

I didnt think

MARILYN....MARILYN.....I DIDNT MEAN WEETABIX, I MEANT, AVOCADO

ITS AN EASY MISTAKE TO MAKE TO BE FAIR!!!

NeurotrashWarrior · 30/01/2019 15:19

Eee rufus you made me giggle.

papayasareyum · 30/01/2019 15:18

I love him. Marilyn, you’re a beautiful man and you rock!

ToeToToe · 30/01/2019 15:17

I've just been going through his replies on twitter.

There are some truly deranged people out there, aren't there?

I'm seriously wondering if some of them are doing it as a giant social experiment - how much batshit stuff can I get away with on twitter before it becomes too much for even the wokest of woke grown ups?

LordProfFekkoThePenguinPhD · 30/01/2019 15:15

He might get confused by Fishnet (oh hang on, that will be the sigue sigue Sputnic lads)

jay55 · 30/01/2019 15:14

If Marilyn were a teen today he'd be making mint like James Charles. He really was an influencer and I love that he has always been so comfortable in himself.

BernardBlacksWineIcelolly · 30/01/2019 15:13

shh Rufus, if he hears about the weetabix banana horror, he'll stay away for sure

people can only know about that once they're in deep

Rufusthebewilderedreindeer · 30/01/2019 15:10

Has he made it to mumsnet yet? ❤️

😲 oooh

Lets yell

MARILYN...MARILYN...COME OVER TO THE DARK SIDE....WE HAVE RECIPES

IGNORE THE WEETABIX ONE...THE REST ARE GOOD

My sister had his albums. There were a few ‘is that a him or a her?’ Bands around back in the day. That was in the good old days when they just dressed and looked like the opposite sex. Sometimes just for a laugh.

Nowadays a male person can look like dumbeldore (is the the big hairy one?) and demand we call them ‘ma’am’ - and that really is confusing.

NeurotrashWarrior · 30/01/2019 14:41

Ps, in advance, sorry I confused you for the Manson one. I spent the early 80s often double checking with my mum that boy George was actually male. Plus you weren't on now one which is the sum total of my 80s pop knowledge till about '87.

BernardBlacksWineIcelolly · 30/01/2019 14:40

He is now also promoting the Stonewall petition

crikey

good work Marilyn

MsJeminaPuddleduck · 30/01/2019 14:39

He really is stunning. Remarkable - 56 and massive drug habit for 20 years - yet beautiful

NeurotrashWarrior · 30/01/2019 14:39

Anybody who tries to take on Marilyn has no idea how brave he is and the shit he took to make a more tolerant world for everyone.

HomeStar · 30/01/2019 13:36

His account has been “reported” to Twitter of course. I wonder if anyone has called the cops? I almost hope they have, that would be a small step for a TRA, and a giant leap for Peak Trans.

Beerflavourednipples · 30/01/2019 13:32

People like Travis 'I wanna change with the 15 year old females in Topshop' Alabanza could take a leaf out of Marilyn's book to be honest.
