What in the actual frick does this mean? Why is it going by Him if it doesn't have a gender?


I feel like "it" is the most appropriate pronoun


Working in the film industry, I get weekly messages on linked in from concerned idiots telling me I need to list my pronouns in support of the trans community. There have been many times I though about listing 'it,' but ultimately I want my business to continue, so I just continue not giving a frick about these messages.

I tried understanding this but I don’t

So she wants to be a boy, will she want to have a cock? How does this work? And if she has a boyfriend, is the boyfriend now gay???

I just don't understand how everyone doesn't see this for what it is, a mental disorder. Assume i'm a celebrity, if i decided one day, i'm the King of France. And made a press release, and demanded i be treated as the King of France is treated, would you do it? Would you refer to me as your heinous? No, you'd plead that i seek mental help, and that i must be suffering through some sort of nervous breakdown, or i just want attention. That is all this is.

So now that Ellen Page doesn’t exist anymore and it would be dead naming to refer to Mr. Page as such, would it be cool for someone to order an Ellen Page sex doll? ( Obviously, ordering sex dolls is creepy and weird. But just go with it. ) Hypothetically, Elliot shouldn’t have any problems with somebody ordering an Ellen Page doll, maybe from X-Men?

These are important questions that need answering

She lives in a polarized, confirming echo chamber just like the rest of us.

So what happens when he/she/it decides to return to the previous gender?

I’m old fashioned

I’d at least like to know the woman I’m with has a pussy that’s natural

Probably a good decision. I was just a bit baffled by the complexity of it all. I realize this is a sensitive issue for some people, but it’s one that I find more difficult to empathize with than most. My own lack of ever even thinking about pronouns makes it tough.

I mean, I remember being called ma’am over the phone before puberty, but that hasn’t really affected my life

Announces "I am trans, my name is now Elliot, but I am non-binary so neither a man nor woman". Then what are you changing to/from? Why change your name?




So brave though.

Elliot Page will continue to play the role of Vanya Hargreeves in “The Umbrella Academy,” the Netflix series about a family of superheroes that’s become one of the streaming service’s biggest hits.

Vanya is a cisgender woman whose superpower involves unleashing force through the use of sound. There are no plans to change the character’s gender, insiders told Variety.


Elliot Page Will Continue to Star in ‘Umbrella Academy,’ Netflix Changes Credits on His Past Films

Based on all of the complaints about straight actors playing gay characters doesn't she need to be cancelled for being transgender and playing a cisgender character?

She will certainly get those residual checks from those movies. Now whether SAG forces those companies to change the credits to Elliot Page will be another issue.

She came out as lesbian years ago
Does anyone really care that she is now transgender?
Attention is all she wants.
I guess her career has plateaued
No one cares
Live your life like everyone else and stop advocating just to advance your personal agenda

Guy or girl, I don't really care. All I know is that Vanya is the worst character in Umbrella Academy.
