Nolan North Transphobic Comment on Twitter

https://twitter.com/nolan_north/status/636942232629587968 Hey Bungie, maybe not hire people that make transphobic jokes like these? 41% of transgender people attempt suicide at some point during their life. Jokes like these lead to our society not taking trans people seriously. If you want Nolan North to do the Ghost voice for you, tell him to apologize for this comment. It has seriously lowered my anticipation for TTK. Thanks.

  • Jokes spawn from tragedy. Haven't u ever made a distasteful joke? You never meant to offend anyone, u were just having a laugh. Get it? If u are comfortable with yourself then u understand when someone makes a playful joke about u, u can laugh and accept the humor in it. I don't think he was trying to bash anything, he just found it funny, simple as that. I doubt Jenner will find this upsetting at all, she has probably heard some pretty messed up stuff from people who actually hate her decisions. Just a joke friend.

  • So let me get something straight, "Caitlyn" Jenner Identifies as a woman. That's fine with me I don't care not my life so whateves. Any way to the point, She says she is a woman, so if Nolan had said [b]HE[/b] had let himself go you guys would want him burned at the cross. All he said was she had let herself go. He still referred to her as a woman because that is what she wants. I see no harm in this, if he said it about like Idk Reese Witherspoon I doubt you'd give two shits about it. So knock it off. [spoiler]There is some other things I'd argue about "Caitlyn" Jenner but I'd rather not.[/spoiler]

    • Rude, sure, but I'm not going to boycott the Taken King over that. I'm bi and I still watch movies with homophobic actors. I'm not going to avoid someone's work because I dislike their opinions.

    • I'm sure he will apologize on his own. I don't think it was right for him to make that joke, but I don't think he had ill intentions for all Transgender people.

      So what is Bungie going to do now? Cancel everything that he recorded and make a new deal to a new person? All because of 1 tweet? 2015 really is the year of offending everyone. Go back to Tumblr, and get off these forums because you won't get very far. In addition, how is that transphobic? He made a somewhat indecent remark not relating to trans crap at all.

    • How is this a transgender joke? Jenner wasn't a transgender. He got a sex change. Totally different...also, like someone here said, if you get offended by what someone said, you my friend, are a pussy.

        • OP, shut the f'uck up. It's people like you that rip the fun out of everything. Literally everything. Bungie nor Nolan are obligated to apologize for that joke. Keyword being JOKE. If you don't like it then kindly remove yourself from the Internet and go to your "safe space" to reflect on why words on the Internet hurt your feelings. Pathetic.

        • I'm cis so it's not my place to decide what is and isn't transphobic, but for reference I sent a screenshot to a trans friend of mine and he said it wasn't transphobic, just somewhat rude and unnecessary as it is when insulting most celebrities.
