"You can't make a mistake with me." "Everyone has the right to a fair chance in life." (Absolutely true) You have a wonderful attitude toward it all. Thank you for being genuinely you 💓
Gorgeous video! Really resonated with me, I’ve always admired Eddie, and now Suzy as well. Also strangely enough this was recorded on my birthday AND I was born in 1985. Wonderful to know this beautiful human has been trying to be honest to themselves and living their best life for as long as I’ve been alive!
An enormous number of marathons run, global career in comedy (in different languages), 19-20 characters in Great Expectations (with dyslexia), and politics?! That's some challenge list! Would love to meet her and ask, 'Do you ever get nervous?!' Incredible.
The amount of people who justify hatred of others based on their own personal life decisions when it has absolutely zero affect on themselves is startling.
thank you for your bravery Suzy. What is interesting for me is that my art tutors at college loved your comedy and even played it to us as inspiration for a project. I came out to them and they used to be so supportive of my work and after I told them they wanted nothing to do with me. I wonder what they will feel now as you have now been so open about yourself. they really loved and respected you so much, and im sure they still do now too. For me it is healing because it shows me that though I felt so low about myself back then, I now feel it was about them not me. they were not better than me to look down on me. they are now learning im sure... its so hard to carry that for so many years. She's right, it is just the stage we are in now, black people, women, gay people alll went through a period of discrimination and the world is much better towards them now, because they fought in the past. this is just what we have to go through right now. It is the now ... one been through it for years and accept it just is what it is , for now ;)thank you Xx
Unfortunately there are some who feel threatened when someone, some ‘other’ is presented to them and they cannot comprehend it, so they act out in anger for no actual reason.
She's in KAOS on Netflix and it was like "who is that, she looks so familiar" ITS IZZARD!!! One of my favorite funny people. So true to herself. Huzzah to SUSIE!!!!!!!!!
You’ll find that Suzy’s always incredibly empowering whether it be in her books, shows and interviews. So happy to know of and support this wonderful person 🙌
Cool as ever, & offering a choice to anyone who addresses him/her. Mad respect. So I guess the worst one can be accused of re: Izzard would just be "Ed-naming"...
Suzy/Eddie is such an inspiration. The sheer bravery is igniting. Life is too short for anyone to live anything less than their authentic life. Good for her, hope she goes all the way!
I agree. He's never shoved anything down anyone's throat. He makes it perfectly plain that he's not bothered whether people call him Eddie or Suzy and has no axe to grind. Great comedian and actor, compassionate, intelligent, aware and very authentic.
I have a lot of admiration for Eddie Izzard. An incredible athlete, compassionate and intelligent. He is not female, though. He seems to have this odd ambiguity about it all and says he's in "girl mode" and "boy mode" and now Eddie and Suzy, which he knows is putting people on edge. He should be able to dress and do whatever he likes, but he is very obviously a man, and i don't think it's ignorant to say so. I think it's ignorant,disingenuous and an insult to women to say otherwise.
I'm still confused by the new "Transgender" tag, though, even after lengthy explanation. Transvestite has always been a perfectly serviceable name for what you see when looking at Izzard: simple cross-dressing. To needlessly switch over to a term that traditionally has indicated chemical/surgical toggling of the bog equipment just adds more confusion to a matter that is already threatening to claim double the previous amount of public restroomage, most of the colors in the spectrum *and* half of letters in the alphabet! You think I'm exaggerating? Well, yesterday I went online and tried to donate $50 to the cause -- and an hour later a delivery truck was at my front door bringing me a dozen X-LG DQ BLTs!!!
She is an absolute gem. Suzy's Dress to Kill lives in my head rent free and I still find myself repeating some of the squirrel bits even after all these years. My favorite stand-up show.
It seems to be a difference in how peoples minds work. Some people passively absorb cultural roles as far as its circumstantially useful, but invest in their innate biological personality as themselves. Other people proactively construct their cultural self from all available parts, presumably to mask or distract from the uncertain reality of their biological selves (often traumatised, ill or disabled people who wont be socially validated for their antisocial tendencies it seems)
@@theburbles4260 You poor dear, you can play with any rules you like! Totally up to the group playing! Many games customize gameplay. You can even introduce rules that you feel were left out. My, how regimented some become- even with no overseers. Kind of scary, actually. 😬
"She is planning her new one woman show". What an insane world we live in now that people have to go along with this. He's still calling himself Eddie for tours etc. God forbid he'd miss out on some ticket sales by people not realising who Suzy Izzard is
Oh and Susy? Thank You for helping to celebrate the day my father died. I life like few others. Like you own! LOVE YA KIDD. SAINT OF SQUIRRELS. Michael.
saw him on his san francisco in 1999 telling everyone that he was a male tomboy who was a straight man who likes girls who wears makeup and heels but he was in the height of his career so maybe suzy is the latest girl’s favourite name and he is trying to keep relevant in his elder career as i was a fan of eddie and he was shocking in his day i’m sure he would of joked about it if not actually admitted to it he’s in the cult of hurt feelings brigade
You can't just pick what name you are to fir what day you decide what gender you want to be. Possibly to benefit yourself. This would be most apparent in women's sports
She's terrified of him, he's nuts and unpredictable; one phone-call and she's out of a job. She also knows, as he does, that he is a male homosexual transvestite who is now protected from opprobrium by claiming he is a, 'trans-woman' - whatever that is?
Wish it was as easy as just putting on some lippy & a frock to be a Woman. But Izzard there is rather more than that involved. Fear not, you'll never have PMT or Periods or become Pregnant & Give Birth. You can just play at it.
Consider the arrogance of this? From a real woman's (from birth/with a womb etc) perspective. Seems some have forgotten eh Lorraine? Let me literally step into your identity and consume it, no wonder he's laughing so much? (comparing it to slavery too and a wee dig at the right oh well done, virtue signalling) He doesn't know what the meaning of life is (he admits) but his way is the best way because he says it so? Inclusive eh????? If you buy this you'll buy literally ANYTHING? Peace always. Otherwise funny likeable chap!
I adore her. Thank you Suzy. Your abig inspiration to our community and to the world 🌍. I am gay and didn't come until the early 90s and now at age 57 I am the happiest i ever been.
@@reenierossi3724 autogynephile. Sexually attracted to the idea of himself as a woman, either just dressing as a woman, being validated as one, or allegedly having female experiences such as menstruation and pregnancy. Not saying he’s the latter but many AGPs are. He gets a kick out of dressing that way and being called Suzy.
The AGP claim has no basis in peer reviewed research (or, indeed, the lived reality of trans individuals - peculiarly, they always go after trans women. Trans men might just blow a tiny mind).
@@FrankNFurter1000 trans men aren’t trying to access men’s spaces or dominating their sports. They’re not screaming “trans men are men” at “rallies” where they shut down the opposition through physical violence. It’s almost as if being female and female socialisation plays a part in the non-domination of trans men’s narratives. As for AGP, if you can think of another explanation of why men derive sexual pleasure from seeing themselves dressed as women or claiming female experience (you can go all the way back to Jessica Yaniv to find a trans woman with a period fetish), go for it. They’re basically admitting it themselves on trans Reddit and TikTok. Isn’t lived experience what people report themselves?
@@FrankNFurter1000 Exactly. The claim from transphobes that all or most trans women are AGP has absolutely no actual evidence to back it up. Blanchard's theory (which is where term "autogynephilia" originated from) has absolutely no scientific basis behind it whatsoever, and was steeped in his pre-disposed bias. A friend of mine who is trans, said she was first aware of her dysphoria at the age of 4, long before she had sexual feelings or attractions of any kind, and many other trans people are aware of their dysphoria at an early age too. Whilst of course, fetishistic males who get a sexual kick from dressing as women exist, there is no actual evidence whatsoever that most trans girls/women fit into that category.
He does a brilliant job in two roles pretending to be a woman and pretending to be a comic! We need Eddie at Christmas time oh no we don’t oh yes we do!
To all the people who have a really hard time with Suzy. Just listen to this interview without watching, or listen to a podcast with Eddie. What comes acriss is someone thoughtful, smart, funny and generous. Then look back and look at Izzards identity choices. You'll see that your eyes have deceived you into thinking badly of someone based purely on how they look. What a facile and shallow person you must be to go on looks alone...
Eddie/Suzy is such a huge inspiration. TY so much for having the courage to be yourself. A great role model for a world of love and acceptance. 💖💖💖💖
