The guy could be a crackhead, a transvestite, a flasher, a junkie, a chainsaw murderer
As opposed to nowadays when women are thrilled to date someone who dresses up as a woman?
Get a life. It's not the same as anti-semitism.
It is, as it is a discriminated group. And transvestite men can be heterosexual as well, so it is highly offensive.
shareYeah, a transvestite is someone who likes to wear women's clothing and women usually wouldn't like to date someone who wears women's clothing.
Nothing controversial about what she said. It's not a secret that 99% of women avoid dating transvestites. I sincerely hope most women don't actively avoid dating Jews.
Maybe you can hunt Rosie down and harangue an apology out of her over a line she read in a romantic comedy over 20 years ago.
sharemikekrit62; Better yet get a truck load of Illegal Aliens and dump them on her front lawn telling them She would take care of them. WHOOPS, that was already done and boy did SHE call the Police fast to get rid of them! Showing her true hypocrite Liberat colors.
It was a movie line, not her actual words. Relax!
shareI think the OP makes an interesting point here. It's one thing for Rosie's character to question how Annie might feel if the man of her dreams turned out to like wearing women's clothing, but she's lumping that in with chainsaw murdering, which would definitely not fly today.
And it is surprising that Rosie, being LGBT herself, wouldn't have thought twice about that line. Even that early in her career she could have said something if it bothered her and Nora Ephron would have let her change it. Nora learned a lot about working collaboratively with actors after working with Rob Reiner. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if Rosie came up with that line, and probably some of her character's other zingers, herself since she was a stand-up comic. Often movies like this cast a good improviser in a comic-relief buddy part like this. I think people were just less sensitive in those days, even in the LGBT community.

Rosie is/was a pig. But everyone knows that.
