Mickey?

This still doesn't make her interesting.

Poor Cary Elwes. No love for The Princess Bride.

@KateNonymous:My sentiments exactly. "As you wish Minnie!"

@KateNonymous: or Another Country and Lady Jane

"Tranny"? Really?

Izzard still loves to wear women's clothes and identifies as a transvestite.

But is the pejorative "tranny" as used by the clueless to denote only a transgender person or does it also encompass transvestites?

Or are "they" all the same?

Minnie seems to be intelligent enough to understand that being a transvestite has no bearing on whether or not a man who would wear her pants also wants to get into them.

@Rey:
Yes, I was just going to say that. And statistically, most men who like to dress up in women's clothes are heterosexual. I have been hit on by many of them in the Hollywood area. If Minne had wanted an actual trannie, she could have found one quite easily in my neighborhood.

@Rey: Actually, none of the above. Fans of Izzard will know that he casually refers to himself as a "tranny" in his act from time to time. See clip for evidence. But nice use of the word "pejorative."

Lets see, Hot Tranny Mess, Rock Fossil, or Bland Law&Order SVU guest star. I'm going for none of the above.

@Mark Graham: Oh, please don't misunderstand me. I fully subscribe to the notion that one who belongs to a slighted group can use any term traditionally used to demean them in an empowered way.

Izzard does this wonderfully.

The above post did not. It presented the term as if it would somehow negate any sort of possibility of a relationship with a female and I felt it important to make that distinction since Izzard usually does so much more eloquently.

But thanks for the clip! I love that bit.

And thanks, ya big Turd(blossom), for helping illustrate my point.

He had style
He had Flair
HE WAS THERE!!
That's why they called him The Tranny!

I've been following Eddie's career for years and I've never seen him perform as a musician.

Here's what he says about his musicianship:

But he is an executive transvestite.

Sir McTedious Who-gives Afuckinghamshirewot?

@Little Mintz Sunshine:

Damned it. Make that "Sir McTedious Who-Gives Afuckinghamshirewot". Apologies to all. Carry on.

It's Rupert Grint.

Her last hint was the closest to the truth..."sort of in the same business".

He is not talent---look below the line.

for reals.

Eddie Izzard is not a "tranny". He is a transvestite (most of whom are straight men). Sorry, but I gotta play the bullshit, that's just damn insensitive card on this one.

Aw, I do volunteering with transgendered people, and according to them "tranny" is used to indicate an unsuccessful transvestite (ie cannot pass). I've never heard any of them use it to describe a transgendered person.

So which is it, "Cake or death?!"

Eddie Izzard says he is not gay. He's called himself a "Male Lesbian".

He's also said he is not "transgendered", but that he just likes wearing women's clothes.

Dude is so open about wearing ladies stuff I doubt he would lie if he actually was gay! (That would almost be easier for people to understand. He's been famous here in the UK as a comedian for years and people seem to accept him fine - though the UK has a history of "Panto Dames" and men dressing as women for comedy which probably helps.)

Here is his wiki page. Scroll down to "Transvestism", it says pretty much what I have always heard about him (here in the UK).

I have no idea if he is the daddy, but I bet he and Minnie are laughing at all the guessing no matter what.

Minnie Driver is pregnant by Frank the rabbit in a poorly-conceived viral ad for S. Darko....

I heard it was Harvey the Rabbit.
