I love that I am trans. And I love that I am queer.

Page uses both he/him and they/them pronouns, and describes himself as transgender and non-binary, meaning that his gender identity is neither man nor woman.

Regardless of what she "identifies" as, she is most definitely either a man or a woman. But I am honestly confused by this...

So she comes out and says "I love that I am trans and that I am queer." Well, if being queer means you are attracted to the same sex/gender, then you identifying as trans or "non-binary" and claiming to have no gender renders "queer" no longer applicable, right? You cannot be attracted to the same sex/gender if you are claiming to not be either gender. Am I thinking through that correctly?

Oh there's still some idiots on here who get triggered by people different from them. Frankly I couldn't care less about Paige coming out as trans but seeing this site get pissy over it is hilarious

This is correct.

It's also just a response from not being able to accept yourself. It's sad to see mental illness "championed," but such is life at this point. Logic and reason, Poof.

Clearly she's mentally ill.
She's a petite lady with cute female features and a distinctly female voice.
She is not physically transgender and has zero transgender characteristics.
She obviously needs psychiatric help or she's just coming out as transgender as part of the liberal progressive ideological movement which seems more likely.

Apparently queer is an umbrella term now that includes bi, gay, and trans. So I guess it makes sense.

This site has a weird infatuation with trans persons.

Will Page be nominated in the best actor or best actress category?

Well, you’ve hit all the usual TD talking points: Mental illness, liberalism is a disease, she needs help from herself.

What the heck are transgender characteristics?

I feel like you are getting "pissy" confused with "think it's ridiculous and stupid."

They were better in season 2 of the Umbrella Academy than season 1.

I'm more curious if they try and interject this into season 3 or not. If it's your personal life, great; but placing it onto an established character is a bit much.

Justify it all you want but it's still bitching about what some random celeb decides to do with their life

She clearly is just thinking about your stereotypical jacked man identifying as a woman.
