quote:

Trans former Olympian Caitlyn Jenner is going to feature on South Park.
The star will receive the cartoon’s treatment in the upcoming season 19 premiere on Comedy Central.
South Park will take on the issue of being transgender in general, as well as specifically Jenner’s story.
“The boys express respect for Caitlyn Jenner,” a Comedy Central press release teases, according to Entertainment Weekly.
The episode will be titled ‘Stunning and Brave’, the characters will face up to their history of acting in a less-than politically correct manner.
“There is a new principal at the helm of South Park Elementary. He forces the boys to confront the damage they’ve done through their history of racism and unconscious bias,” the episodes description reads.
“It is the most stunning and brave South Park ever.”
The series has already touched on trans issues, as Mr Garrison has undergone gender reassignment surgery more than once.

I don't understand how you can lampoon this without being super offensive, frankly, especially on a show that has a history of treating trans issues terribly. How can a cartoon "take on" the issue of being transgender??

more than making fun of actual trans people but who knows I guess. They'll probably make fun of some tumblr ballerinas too but lol if you think this is just gonna be 22 mins of making fun of trans ppl.

I thought they already did trans issues when they had Mr Garrison get a sex change and seduce Richard Dawkins, then later on they discovered they were a lesbian and re-enacted 300?

By having Mr Garrison go "Well then I'm not really a woman. I'm just a guy with a mutilated penis!"

You know, the way the issue should be treated.

quote:

Doctor: Mrs. Garrison, you can't have an abortion.
Mrs. Garrison: Don't you tell me what I can and can't do with my body! [gets up, goes to the nurse, and hugs her] A woman has a right to choose!
Doctor: No, I mean you're physically unable to have an abortion, because you can't get pergnant.
Mrs. Garrison: But I missed my period.
Doctor: You can't have periods either. [Mrs. Garrison looks surprised] You had a sex change, Mr. Garrison, but you don't have ovaries or a womb. You don't produce eggs.
Mrs. Garrison: [sits down] You mean, I'll never know what it feels like to have a baby growing inside me and then scramble its brains and vacuum it out?
Doctor: That's right.
Mrs. Garrison: But I paid five thousand dollars to be a woman. This would mean I I'm not really a woman. Ih, I'm just a... a I'm just a guy with a mutilated penis!
Doctor: Basically, yes.
Mrs. Garrison: ...Oh boy, do I feel like a jackass.

Yeah if anything this new episode will be a kinda sorta apology for all that just judging from how the Lord stuff was handled. idk I guess.

Oh god, I hope not. I like to think that episode was just a big setup to the transgender woman raping Nathan joke on the following week's episode.

Knowing Trey, there will be some flashback where Caitlyn will be remembering some butch lesbian throwing the discus and wanting to be that woman or some dumb poo poo.
