As I was obsessed with the show I’ve been wondering when this would resurface.

www.pinknews.co.uk/2021/02/23/futurama-transphobic-disney-plus-star-trans-bend-her/

For anyone who doesn’t know bender fails to beat the male robots at the robot olympics. So he has a sex change to become a fembot and easily beats all of the robots that were originally built female.

I can’t wait until they get to the episode where bender dresses up as a fairy and goes by the name “gender bender” on the wrestling circuit.

Apologies if already posted.

I was surprised it took south parks board girls episode to upset the TRAs tbh as they did one where cartman self IDs as a girl to use the girls bathroom (although not for predatory purposes he does just want to take a shit) and gets his own bathroom so Wendy does the same thing.

It's called "there's something about marrying".
Homer becomes a minister to do gay weddings, one of Marge's sisters is going to marry a woman called Veronica.
Only it turns out Veronica was actually a chap who was pretending to be a woman in order to win the women's pro golf championship.

Watched a Simpsons episode on channel 4 a few weeks back (it was a repeat) which would get the same complaints. I'll find a plot description.

@nauticant ahh I’m not on Twitter so I’ve only just seen it in a Facebook group I’m part of.

I’m assuming Matt Groennings life hasn’t dropped to ruins as I’m sure I’d have heard about that. What do they think they’re going to do about 20 year old cartoons that are accurate AF anyway.

It was a thing on twitter a couple of months back. If you want to go into your weekend with a smile on your face, check out the replies to this trans activist trying to whip up an outrage mob:
