Is it considered offensive or transphobic for a male actor to

Does it matter? Does it somehow hurt you, personally, seeing an actor playing a character outside of their gender? Fuck off with this "I'm offended" shit. Nobody gives a fuck about your feelings.

OP never said it offended them, they just asked if it was considered offensive.
fuck off back to pol and suck trumps dick while you're at it.

If he has to ask it means OP is looking to be offended. I don't ask if something offends me or not, I just know

It's definitely more of a racial thing than a trans thing. Usually when it's a man dressed up as a woman it's a black comedian in another schlock comedy.

There's a certain black comedian who spoke about Madea and others of that kind of movies but I completely forget who it was.

I'd say it's all in the intent. In pic related there's no question as to whether the character is actually a man in a suit, it's just a character.

It only ever seems offensive to straight cis men to see another straight cis man in a dress. It makes them feel uncomfortable and insecure in their masculinity the longer they stare. At the end of the movie, they're very likely to joke awkwardly about what they saw, and reassure everyone that the joke is "no-homo."

In fact, the people most outraged by characters like Madea are conservative conspiracy theorist Hotep black men who feel that the emasculation of a black man for the sake of comedy is part of the white man's plan to indirectly promote sterilization through turning upstanding straight black men gay... somehow.

It's interesting how similar the conspiracy theories of batshit crazy black men are to batshit crazy white men, only with the fingers pointed at one another. Or, of course, the jews.

I'm not a /pol/ack, and I don't like Trump. You can object to SJW nonsense without supporting Trump.

I'm sure some people are offended, but I'm not one of them. I don't think histrionically demanding people to follow our standards of behavior is the way to normalize trans people.

I am not offended. Tyler Perry isn't my style though.

Only if the acting in question is horrible.

How underage do you have to be in order to not be familiar with Monty Python?

Though I can't stand a single one of Tyler Perry's films, I'm personally not offended by a CD comedy. It just turns me off in the same way a Happy Madison film does, it's all played for cheap laughs.

Now if people legitimately believe that this is what trans people are like (and believe me, there are millions of them) on the other hand, then yes, it's problematic.
