South Park mocks trans athletes

Mmm hmmm because not wanting men in women’s sport is transphobic. And the episode Futurama did around this was fantastic.

Call ‘em as I see ‘em. Cheaters. Big, fat, fucking cheaters. War on women.

I'm thiefphobic against thieves.

The world has gone mad

South Park mocks everyone

Come on, they are still genetically men. If you did a blood test that is what science would say. No one gives a shit if you want to parade around in a dress and call yourself Kaitlyn, but sorry, competing as a woman when you have genetic strength of the male body is just flat out cheating.

The best thing about it is that the trans athlete in the episode might as well be Mr. McKinnon. There’s good indication he transitioned and got interested in destroying women’s sports as a form of revenge against his bodybuilder ex-wife.

Why have a competition at all. Zero sum games hurt feelings and are for pituitary gland lizard brains.

Yadda, yadda, yadda. Get back to me when you show some outrage about Mr. Slave's lifestyle.

Futurama's trans episode was great (Bender becomes Coilette) and nothing at all like this one. And totally NOT transphobic. The hormones must be making McKinnon senile if "it's boring" is the best insult template she can use. I'm surprised she didn't add "and worst of all, it's not even funny!"

R10 Hail! Hail! Robonia! A land I didn’t make up!

Rachel McKinnon is clearly a man. Let’s call a spade a spade. Glad South Park has the balls to call this bullshit out.

The solution to this madness is to make a trans category. That would level the playing field.

This episode was surprisingly pro women and very feminist, maybe that's why they hated it so much.

It figures.

Matt and Trey can get VERY libertarian-bro, but they were spot on with this one and I'm glad they had the guts to do it and Comedy Central let them air it.

With the possible exception of Jonathan Yanniv, no one has caused more harm to the trans community than McKinnon.

Trans women do not belong in women's sport. They are not women, they are trans and it is cheating. It's also hugely disrespectful to women.

I know, let's make ALL sport competitions unisex! That eliminates the problem.

It was a brilliant episode.

Look at Hannah Mouncy... a hulk amongst pipsqueaks.

There are none so blind as those who refuse to see.

R12, they can't make a "trans" category, because both genders would then fall under the same banner and the "women" would win everything, on account of being genetically men. R6 is absolutely right.

I'd be quite happy for MTF to participate in men's sport dressed as women, though. No probs with that whatever. They can have their own change room.

[quote]South Park mocks everyone

Except the Republican party.

They won't even touch Trump.

You must have missed the previous episode, R20.

Yet we'll still hear that it's verboten to say anything about trans.

They don't deserve this. Sending out love to you, transwomen.

Also the entire two seasons where they make fun of Trump as Mr. Garrison (playing a Trump character) is elected President 😜

Genius

R21 I stopped watching back in season two when they went on a tirade about "Hollywood" interfering in elections when Bush stole his first election.

R18 Hannah is from my country. And widely regarded as a joke and a whinger. He played competitive men’s handball but couldn’t get into the men’s AFL so suddenly he’s a she and wants to play in the WAFL. In the end the top tier refused. Hannah did not take it well. There’s a photo of Hannah and another AFL male former player and it illustrates that no matter how you dress, your still man size and in fact, a man. I think the photo was with J Brown, who is not a small guy. Fucking insane. If you’ve ever had a dick, you can’t be in women’s sport. End of story.

Scroll, picture of Jono and Hannah.

Deserve what, Dora Dumbfuck?

South Park did what it always does, shine a light on the things no one likes to talk about. And now we are talking about it.

South Park’s first tranny episode - Mr. Garrison’s Fancy New Vagina - is still the gold standard of trans awareness and came out AGES ago. It’s hilarious to this day.

“You mean I’m not a WOMAN?! I’m just a man with a mutilated penis?!?”

When a majority of transwomen have attempted suicide they don't need to be mocked like this. It brings back memories my own time being bullied at school for being gay.

Good for them.

South Park was rough on Caitlyn Jenner, but quite funny. Those episodes didn't focus on sports, but rather politics.

But note, Bruce was an Olympic Champion in a màle competition sport. In golf, Caitlyn still tees off from the men's spot.

R31 why do they need to compete against real Women? What are they trying to prove?

[quote]When a majority of transwomen have attempted suicide they don't need to be mocked like this.

MTFs are not immune from scrutiny. Competing against women is about as fair as short adults competing against children. Common sense needs to be suspended in order to support this.

Enough with the persecution complex.

R34 It’s all about validation

Sources, r31.

Who hasn't Southpark made fun of?

People need make a sense of humor great again!

Various sporting organizations will have to figure out what to do about the situation, but that's their business. It's the fans and participants who are going to have to say something, and the few who have always reveal themselves to hate trans more than anything else. No one can ever say "we need to create weight classes" or "we need size limits," it's always "it's insane" (Navratilova) or sports organizations (ISAPL) allying with groups who tweet about how great it would be if all trans got "1000 cancers."

You never watched those sports or participated in them, never bought tickets to events or purchased anything an athlete endorsed, and most of you aren't even LGBT or women. There's nothing you can do about this, except to complain online and post comments claiming you'll vote Republican because you think they'll make laws to dictate who can and can't participate in a sport.

[quote]Who hasn't Southpark made fun of?

Themselves. Like typical pussy ass right wingers, they can dish it out but can't take it.

When Family Guy made fun of them they spent an entire episode ridiculing Family Guy.

When Phil Collins made a comment about them they spent several episodes making fun of him.

r39 it's interesting how you can't actually argue the point but instead have to make up a bunch of OTHER things no one has said here, and then rail against that as being "transphobic". Get some new material, toots.

r40 They've actually made fun of themselves in several episodes, but you'd have to actually watch them to know that.

[quote]but you'd have to actually watch them to know that

Or even care.

r43 clearly you care or you wouldn't have posted in this thread. You should just admit you were wrong.

^^^South Park thinking

Most of us aren't LGBT, r39? Know your audience, honey.

Know you're place R46.

This is a gay blog, we don't need to be lectured to by you.

South Park is just a Right wing soap box. They did episodes on calling someone or something gay isn’t homophobic and hate crime laws shouldn’t be a thing for gay people. Both have said that they hate liberals a hundred times more than conservatives.

[quote] This is a gay blog

This isn’t a blog, Boomer.

R31, so we should ignore the fact that trans "women" are cheating at sport in case it hurts their feelings?

They've attempted suicide because they have mental problems. They need therapy, not more hormones to make them even more unstable.

[quote]When a majority of transwomen have attempted suicide they don't need to be mocked like this.

Don't ever question anything a tans person does, no matter if it's unfair, illegal, predatory, etc—they might kill themselves!!

And I'm not a Boomer R49.

R48 I remember the episode where they said it's ok to call people fags because according to them , it isn't an anti-gay slur anymore.

It's a show that tells right wing assholes that everything they think and say is ok and everyone else is wrong.

There's some obnoxious episodes where you hate them (like that fag episode) and then there's some where they make very good points. They seem to be Libertarians, if anything.

This is a matter for sports organizations to define participation criteria

Attacking acknowledged trans athletes for legal participation in sports is simply an avenue to express prejudice and hate. Address complaints and recommendations to the sports authorities and their sponsors.

Rather see the bigots excluded instead.

South Park mocks men in women’s sport

Why is this show still on? It’s like a The Simpsons. Move on already. Jesus.

It's not mocking trans people it's mocking the absurdity of a man, with male bone density, muscle mass and height competing unfairly against biological women. I know we want to accept everyone and include everyone, but that doesn't mean letting minority/disenfranchised groups call every shot. They're not all wise sages who have all the answers. Accepting and not questioning every demand and declaration from ANY group is idiotic.

Bullshit, R56.

I identify as a 10 year old and I will be competing in the National Little League World Series next year! Bringing up my height and weight is literal violence and I will not tolerate it.

I identify as a 18 year old and I demand the right to hang out with my fellow 18 year olds and "Live My Truth".

What was really clever is that they used the absurdity on one of the two avatars of PC woke culture. Having Strong Woman (and PC Principal by proxy) be accepting in the abstract until reality punches her in the face quite literally was inspired.

yes r63

The point is that it is just not fair to have trans athletes in women’s competitions.

Congradulations, ewe tolled him, girlfriend!

[quote]Attacking acknowledged trans athletes for legal participation in sports is simply an avenue to express prejudice and hate. Address complaints and recommendations to the sports authorities and their sponsors.

Organizations at every level have been browbeaten to included trans even if it runs counter to fairness. If the sports authorities were to enact common sense rules for participation, they'd be labeled "transphobic" and bigots.

There is no way Randy Savage's family would have been OK with this. How did they get permission?

This is wonderful. It’s time we start shaming these MEN who are stealing away women’s sports. These women have worked their entire lives only to have a man come in at the last minute and steal their wins. Sickening!

The cowards at Jezebel, who are normally so very quick to call out "transphobia", have not published an article on this yet. Why not? Because they know damn well that even the wokest of libfems are starting to get uneasy about trans athletes. They know the comment section would be full of posters tentatively saying, "Look, I hate TERFs as much as anyone, but doesn't South Park have a point here? Why are so many trans women winning women's sport, but trans men don't seem to win men's sport?"

The South Park episode was spot on. Live your life. Be who you want to be. But when you start making absolutely insane demands upon the rest of society, demanding that men can be women just by declaring it so, and demanding that men with ponytails can compete against women in sport, and policing harmless language norms, you've lost even the most progressive people.

I found it a bit light. The revelation that she was only identifying as a woman for revenge was a let down, she should have been a proper trans.

[quote] The cowards at Jezebel, who are normally so very quick to call out "transphobia", have not published an article on this yet. Why not?

Because no one is still watching South Park.

R74 That's not true. The show still gets mainstream coverage. All of those adult animated shows aimed at mature audiences that were supposed to succeed South Park like Bojack Horseman have come and gone yet South Park still gets discussed a lot. Nobody ever talks about new episodes of Simpsons or Family Guy either.

Bojack Horseman is oddly favored among Gen Z.

Beyond parody.

R77 Orwellian
