Another tail wags dog story from the shitty BBC!

Mental health issues

Yawn don’t want to hear from a white Privilege man.

Deeply irresponsible of the BBC to use that quote in the last paragraph.

Who is this person?

Don't ever come to Britain Elliot, this country is a vile cesspit of transphobia and hatred for anyone who doesn't fit the norm...

The gammons will hate this one

Inception really messed her up . Sorry him up

Hilariously unimportant 'news' bbcnudge steeringthenarrative

He was the best part of ET, besides when he shed tears for the alien bastard

I'm delighted for Elliot. How people can watch someone moved to tears with joy at having finally found their true self, and feel angry or disgusted, is utterly beyond me.

mimmymum The state of some of these comments and the thought that some of you still have followers after you’ve made them ... it really saddens me, are we not past this yet? If you follow me and don’t agree then just block me please.

She needs help

Omg Doesn’t the World have bigger problems than this SHIX

Imagine clicking on this and being angered. The state of some of you lot.

Why do transgender people have to conform to gender stereotype haircuts?

Cue the Crying Game music

Oprah’s like a fly, wherever there is shit, she’s on it 👍

Who!? 🙄

🤡😂🤷‍♂️

Freak

I pray that all members of the LGBT community repent, and turn to Christ and the sacraments. Amen.

She looks so happy now!

Right everything in the world is in balance if not all it takes to go from B to a C is drugs and surgery....wait! chromosomes say otherwise!

Cool stuff but what’s with this hair though?

Let us go for a walk in Greenland.

Clearly there are some real issues here. I feel for her.

She is medically normal and normal.

So sad. They look so ill.

Who?

Facts are facts you can lie to yourself change what you want but it doesn't change you mans a man woman's a woman why the f does this get fed to us always make us feel bad for stating facts

Some of us had no choice about having ‘top surgery’ if we wanted to live after breast cancer. Check your tops boys and girls. BreastCancerAwareness

Good on you being happy in your own skin and you making that decision, Elliot. It’s a fundamental human right to be able to make your own choices 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈
