😂 No apology necessary. As I said, I genuinely didn't find it that funny. But Gervais simply quoted trans activists from Twitter. Pretty much word-for-word. If it sounds bad when Gervais says it, maybe it's just bad.

Check out Bill Maher's bit if you haven't already (linked in the article). I think it's funnier and makes more relevant points.

And yep, I'm English. I've spent many years in America, I've got a lot of family over there, but born in the UK.
