A complete chancer - he's been playing this farce for all it's worth for a few decades now. I remember Lynn Barber did one of her Sunday profiles on him in The Independent years ago and her saying that his transgenderism was more complicated than usual because his entailed him being a lesbian. Yeah right. In other words a hetero bulshitter milking the then notoriety which being 'trans' afforded him back then. It worked wonders for his career, at any rate. But he pulled in and out of his trans identity as it suited. I hate what guys like him are doing to us. And all the trilling women fawning and scraping at their feet should be ashamed of themselves.

Whatever else he is, he's also an over-entitled fuck, fully aware of harm he's causing women, who's just destroyed his own legacy.

So, he acknowledged that the three 13 year-old girls who "followed and harassed" him screamed and ran away when he "confronted" them, yet they're still the bad guys? Does anyone here feel that he WASN'T being disingenuous about who felt intimidated by whom?

He needs his hard drive checked.

Literally, figuratively or both?

I figured both. Definitely literally though.

There's something suspect about a 58 year old AGP who wants to be a "little girl."

Expand full comment

Amen. Only, I think he's a lot more sinister than he appears and has ZERO empathy for women and girls. I believe he gets sexual kicks from violating women's boundaries

Spot on! He is an intelligent man so I can only conclude he gets a kick out of this or doesn’t care. Whichever it is, women lose.

^^this! He is not one of the "nice" ones who are "safe" in women's spaces, purely from he fact that he does not care about women's boundaries.

I absolutely believe that any man trying to get access to female spaces is dangerous.

But why hasn't Eddie changed his name to Eddi?

Keeping options open, probably? He may want to be in ‘boy mode’ some of the time, after all. Doing a Pips Bunce. He’s clearly had no pharmacological or surgical treatment (I’m assuming the perky breasts are not his).

He is an AGP, and needs his hard drive checked.

“Why do you think we’ve had sex segregation over the last hundred years? For a laugh?“

I mean...

Wonderful writing Graham. I know I’m biased, but IMHO there’s a huge gulf in the quality of writing and logical argument between the GC people and the TRA.

He is smart, he has a good sense of humor, he has a wide variety of interests that makes his stand up shows stimulating and fun.

Not a woman though. Don’t be a dick Eddie.

No, please! Be a dick, in fact!!!

All that marathon running was tedious. I imagine a lot of people could achieve similar with a team of medics supporting them and without having a day job getting in the way.

He isn't even remotely funny. I bet he wears a bobble hat.

I've got to be honest, I've never seen him perform, except when he played the creepy murderer in Hannibal. Which he was really, really good at.

Expand full comment

He has always given me the creeps, and comes across as a bit of a knob. I did likes his skit on the cats great escape.. they aren't purring behind the sofa, they're drilling.

Something about his expression always smacked of smug self-adoration, which made me uninterested in watching him, so I really am unaware of most of his work. I just watched the Darth Vader skit someone spoke about below, it was amusing enough.

There are plenty of men in the world who adore themselves, so I tend not to bother with them once I catch a glimpse of that look. Aside from that, I never really thought much about him, and actually had to look up who he was when I saw him on Hannibal. I knew he looked familiar but couldn't place him.

One of the few things I DID like about him, when I read up on him after seeing him on Hannibal, was that he was resolutely gender non conforming. Being a man in "women's" clothes does indeed take a bit of balls.

And now he's just another dick in a dress trying to strip women of their human rights. But he made himself relevant again for five more minutes, so there's that.

He has an ego the size of a planet which would explain his smug self-adoration. The thing about AGP men is that eventually they need to up their stakes to continue getting their kicks.

He has jumped on the trans train for woke points. The thing about trains is that eventually they come to the end of the line.

He has thrown women, and transexuals under the train, eventually it may well roll over him.

On the Izzard wrongthink rewriting of his status as a man, I have avoided giving Wiki any clicks at all since realising it's run by Incels. A couple of years back I actually sent them a few dollars because I'd used them so much over the years. Now I will not give them a page click. We must keep voting with our feet. I have to stop using Google as well, except when necessary. Might try Duck Duck Go again. Does anybody know if Firefox is also run by Incels?

Yandex is ok. DDG was ok for a while but it seemed to go downhill - not used it for a while so maybe it's improved. Google has been shite for 2 years now. Search results are rigged TF.

Yes, search results are horribly rigged. Ty for info.

The power pissing in the ladies toilet comment sums him up.

Classic case of and old-school transvestite seizing upon the transgender fad to authorize his perversions against women. He should be arrested, not feted.

Thank you! Loved it.

It's a real shame because he is a funny guy. I don't care what he wears but he has to accept he is not a woman. He is an middle-aged man suffering from AGP and pushing onto the world and trying to normalise it. Dress how you want just stay out of female spaces. It is a serious case of the Emperor's New Clothes. More celebrities need to grow a pair and stand up to this shit. Thank you Graham x
