I've seen that episode. Brian dates a trans woman, finds out she is trans, then vomits for like 3 minutes straight. Then the family makes fun of him for it. It was awful

yeah this is why i hate family guy memes. and why the 4chan post is mystifying
Apparently one of the writers/producers on that episode had a father that transitioned, which makes it extra strange/sad.
Anyway, I think there's a later episode which isn't as bad (low bar), which is what the dad in this scenario could be talking about. I don't remember it that well, but at the time I remember sighing at the start of the episode and then by the end perhaps being a little charitable in interpreting the moral of the episode as 'gender dysphoria is serious and a good solution is supportive transition.'
EDIT: haven't seen the episode in a long long time so who knows
huh. good for them i guess? still hope whoever was involved in that first episode dies in a fire
she is also Quagmire's parent
If I remember correctly too, Brian gets beaten up by Quagmire for this, and then tries to gotcha Quagmire by misgendering the woman as well, which the episode treats as an own
It's a disgusting episode through and through
And Seth MacFarlane bragged about how positive it was.
Brian gets beaten up for just being an asshole, Quagmire beats him up not knowing that he slept with her. It's used as the punchline of the fight.

Cishet middle aged men have some of the strangest brains.
if it works it works, but i feel so bad for anon having to deal with this
I gave up on trying to understand my father a looooooong time ago. He's like a box of chocolates, except some have cyanide.
At this point I'm not even sure what a normal brain looks like
Pink spaghetti, mostly.
I think mine is more of a linguini.
Uncritical support to Cromalin for bringing me all the best /tttt/ memes to my feed, that I otherwise would not have because I cannot stand to browse the board anymore.
i have a bunch that are a little too nsfw for me to feel good posting them here, but there's some that i will be posting at some point in the future!
Our bravest scout
just like the church of latter day saints and black people
how so?
they changed their mind about them being cursed descendants of cain iirc
In 1979.
i knew that, i just wasn't 100% sure how that applied here
it's a little known fact but Mr. Latter Day himself watched Family Guy religiously
actually everything he watched, he watched religiously
Not Cain, Lamanites. And they didn't change their minds on that overall
They just want the optics, huh? Makes sense
After civil rights laws passed, they weren't allowed to uphold not allowing people of color into the church. Once that happened, Mormons had to backstep. However, anybody who knows the Book of Mormon will tell you that there is no alternate reading that makes them not racist. Mark of Cain has some leeway, Bible never specifies too much on that. Book of Mormon is very specific
Can't believe the church gone woke smh.
Is this the future liberals want?
i am a liberal, like all other posters on this fine forum, and i say absolutely fucking not
I always found it weird that South Park amended their stance of trans people before Family Guy (assuming they ever do). Don't get me wrong the show is still awful fucking garbage but I guess whatever mild credit it's due.
This sounds more like some bizarre treat-brained cope from a transphobe who wished he still had a son(?).
im going to trust anon when they say their dad was chill with it, but it wouldn't surprise me if you were right
Family guy fans always respond to criticisms of the show with, "Family guy makes fun of everyone you f-slur"
There's a surprising amount of people stumbling ass-backwards into cool positions
My mind is about 90% a mix of Simpsons and Sopranos references so I can't really talk shit. I don't use them as a guide for decision making or anything though.
Surely this has never been more relevant.
