Notability

[edit]

I've added quite a few articles discussing the character but if anyone thinks more are needed to show notability I can easily add some.RafikiSykes (talk) 13:29, 12 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I'd like to hear more about her sex change. How can this article not mention she was a dude for a while?

Gender

[edit]

Within the show it is established through flashbacks that Patsy was at some point living as a male. The dialog is that she had a penis for a week, but "it fell off". Recently actress Joanna Lumley stated the character is transgender in an interview, but this is a confusing notion given the history of the character. It would seem to suggest that Patsy was born in a female body but at some point transitioned into being male with a surgery that comedically "didn't take," reverting then back to living as a woman.

In light of this, identifying the character as a "transgender woman" doesn't seem accurate. This would suggest Patsy was born in a male body and transitioned to female. This doesn't align with the dialog around the plot point.

Since it has also been clearly established that Patsy was born with a female body, the only way Patsy being transgender makes sense is for her to have been born as a woman, briefly attempted to transition to a transgender MALE, and then either transitioned back to female or chose to live as a male gender individual with a female sex body - which would still make her a trans man.

Not sure how to correct this. CouplandForever (talk) 01:12, 4 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

In one episode, Elton John says he thinks he knew her "when she was a man." In another, Eddy's son Serge has a flashback to Patsy clearly living as a man. I don't think she is transgender per se, but just an oddity of the character's history. Perhaps enter it as such. GreaseballNYC (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 19:45, 12 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
