Bill Burr on 'Conan.' (Photo: Screenshot/Team Coco)

Comedian Bill Burr, who has been known to cause outrage in the past, is drawing ire from many after he made jokes about Caitlyn Jenner's transition on Thursday's Conan.

In the segment Burr started by talking about Jenner's physical transition in some detail, making jokes about the size of her breasts. He also expressed his wish to have been able to "say goodbye" to Bruce Jenner, and, after using the pronoun "he," expressed concerns over people's sensitivity to pronouns.

Since the segment was posted online, many people on Twitter have expressed outrage over Burr's comments and also at Conan for allowing Burr to say them on his show.

This entire exchange is disgusting. Shame on you, @ConanOBrien. http://t.co/F2g793AmnW — Ariella/donate to an abortion fund (@aBigMess) August 21, 2015

@gabydunn there is a segment producer who actually OK'ed this segment, and a team of writers and EP's who agreed this was "comedy" — Jill Gutowitz (@jillboard) August 21, 2015
