transI listen to a few podcasts on my headphones at work, one of them is Savage Lovecast which is kinda like Loveline, but without the over-the-top homophobia/transphobia that you get from Adam Corrolla.
Now, Dan Savage is a bit hit-and-miss when it comes to transphobia too, and his "wit" (if it can be classified as such) is a bit on the abrasive side. Listening to Savage Love #132 (Minute 17 through minute 21), I'm inclined to give him a few bonus points though. Take a listen for yourself...
Short version: "<caller> I know this FTM guy at my work who I met after he transitioned, but everyone else knew him earlier and call him her/she/etc. What should I do?" "<Dan> Don't be a f**king pussy. He's a man, call him a man, and it doesn't f**king matter what's between his legs. And call out those transphobic d-bags on their sh**"
