It's pretty apparent that his gender issues are tied to his inability to cope with his mother's death. I've heard 'Suzy' is the name of an ex who died, as well. Kinda surprised the Daily Mail isn't challenging his revisionism.

Is this 'physical fight's he's referencing the one involving children being upset about his presence in women's spaces?

😬

Yeah, he did a documentary about his mother’s death years ago and it was fairly clear in that that his transvestitism was directly linked and I don’t think he denied it in the film.

once the hivemind of online sophomore girls taking gender studies said "nah, you don't need dysphoria, that'd be mean" "trans" was able to try and absorb everything from pantysniffers to drag kings to older women with a little lip fuzz to anyone who ever hated their body age 11-14 or doesn't want their own relationship to end up like their parents': so now it's a category that holds everything and thus nothing

it's why they're so strident in "I've always been a woman!" "we've always been here!" because they language and category wasn't even around during the first Obama administration

Poor Eddie. Used to be the comic, and now, he's the joke.

Eddie Izzard has revealed the abuse she faced after coming out as transgender in the 1980s.

The comedian, 61, was speaking on Good Morning Britain on Friday morning with Kate Garraway and Ben Shepherd.

She recently revealed she would be adding 'Suzy' into her name yet opted to remain as Eddie in recent interviews as the moniker is her 'public name'.

Eddie, who is genderfluid but prefers she/her pronouns, first came out as trans in 1985 when she was 23.

She told Kate and Ben about how she was ostracised by society, including being 'fought in the streets' and receiving abuse.

Eddie said: 'If you were trans you were considered toxic and not part of society.

'There weren't any conversations when I came out in '85 so it was such a hard mental thing to do because I had to sort of go do it.

'You had to basically go out and if people shouted at you on the street, if they fought you in the streets, you had to fight back and stand your ground.'

In disbelief, Ben asked if she was ever actually involved in a physical fight. She continued: 'Yes. Not a huge amount of times.

'I did have a big fight which I've talked about. There's been a few fights and a lot more people shouting abuse.

‘That has got less over the years, but then if I go to other places I can get it. I just stand my ground.’

'Everything after that is not so hard! Doing stand-up in French and German.'

It comes after the actor revealed she turned to shoplifting when she battled with establishing her gender as a teen, following her mother's death.

Eddie explained that her mother's death made it 'impossible' for her to express herself - to the point of making herself ill when she was cast as a woman in a theatre show while she was at boarding school in her teens.

She told The Guardian: 'After Mum died, it was just me and my brother and my dad, so even to throw on a dress was impossible...

'I’d been caught stealing makeup when I was 15... Suddenly I’m 16 and being cast as a gangster’s moll in this revue. I got psychosomatically ill'.

What's the difference between transgender and transvestite? Aren't they all just trannys?

Transgender/transsexuals claim they’re the opposite sex, transvestites just dress like the opposite sex. Also, Transvestites were laughed at by everyone, and generally kept that shit to themselves and often their poor wives who just had to put up with it. Transgenders want everyone to know and to tell them how stunning and brave they are, and threatening to kill themselves if people say mean things on the internet.

Izzard made a massive deal about being a transvestite, met little opposition and it certainly didn’t hamper his rise to fame. In the past 5 years he has decided that he was a woman all along and now he’s busy retconning his life to make that appear to be the way it was….and the useful idiots of the media are helping him because no one must ever question “lived experience” even when it directly contradicts facts and reality.

It turns out transvestites were "transgender" the whole time!

I had a mate in school who thought Izzard was the funniest comedian; I always thought his act was shite.

I liked his act, I think he’s a talented comic and a very talented actor, the problem I have is with his behaviour off-stage, and the fucking sanctimonious way he does it.
