It seems everything is offensive these days. Paramount pictures release of the trailer for the upcoming Zoolander sequel this week caused an uproar among the political correctness police.

In the movie, actor Benedict Cumberbatch portrays a transgender model that has outraged many because his, “character is clearly portrayed as an over-the-top, cartoonish mockery of androgyne/trans/non-binary individuals. This is the modern equivalent of using blackface to represent a minority.”

A campaign was launched on Care2petitions to boycott the film and currently has over 11,000 signatures.

Cumberbatch’s brief appearance in the trailer includes a question regarding his gender and Owen Wilson’s character asks him if he has a, “hot dog or a bun.”

Watch the full controversial trailer here.

    I’m sure the makers of the movie would be happy to see this boycotted. It would do wonders at the box office for a mediocre film.

    I wouldn’t waste my time or money on it. Not even for the cost of renting it. Got more important things to do with my money then supporting some transgender trash.

    But, transgenders are a mockery of what a man and/or woman is by definition. Once again, the PCs strike hard against decency. Want to help the transgender? Then, give him/her/it free psychiatric care, not surgery.

    What has this country come to? We have parents claiming that their 6 year olds want to be transgender!
    What gives anyone the right to change what God made? Call me old fashioned, but this crap is creepy!
