Ellen Page is now Elliot Page. Ellen Page is now Elliot Page. Ellen Page is now Elliot Page, a trans person who is now "he/they". Does this mean Elliot Page is really more than one person, since he is now a "they"? "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." Not to be snarky, but if his gender identity is neither man nor woman, why describe himself as "he". I thought "he" referred to a male, not to some person who is neither man or woman. In the modern world, it seems that people are making new classifications and divisions that are still being formed. Is Elliot Page male, female, both, or neither? Or does it depend on the time of day and the mood of the actor? ---------- ---------- Oscar-Nominated ‘Umbrella Academy’ Star Elliot Page Announces He Is Transgender Variety Matt Donnelly December 1, 2020, 9:14 AM Elliot Page, the Oscar-nominated star of “Juno” and Netflix’s “The Umbrella Academy,” has announced he is transgender. Elliot, formerly known as Ellen Page, addressed his social media followers saying: “Hi friends, I want to share with you that I am trans, my pronouns are he/they and my name is Elliot. I feel lucky to be writing this. To be here. To have arrived at this place in my life. I feel overwhelming gratitude for the incredible people who have supported me along this journey. I can’t begin to express how remarkable it feels to finally love who I am enough to pursue my authentic self. I’ve been endlessly inspired by so many in the trans community. Thank you for your courage, your generosity and ceaselessly working to make this world a more inclusive and compassionate place. I will offer whatever support I can and continue to strive for a more loving and equal society,” he wrote. “I love that I am trans. And I love that I am queer. And the more I hold myself close and fully embrace who I am, the more I dream, the more my heart grows and the more I thrive. To all the trans people who deal with harassment, self-loathing, abuse, and the threat of violence every day: I see you, I love you, and I will do everything I can to change this world for the better,” Page continued. 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. Nick Adams, GLAAD’s Director of Transgender Media, said “Elliot Page has given us fantastic characters on-screen, and has been an outspoken advocate for all LGBTQ people. He will now be an inspiration to countless trans and non-binary people. All transgender people deserve the chance to be ourselves and to be accepted for who we are. We celebrate the remarkable Elliot Page today.” Page broke out from his native Canada in 2005 with the revenge thriller “Hard Candy.” Two years later, he starred in Jason Reitman and Diablo Cody’s landmark indie “Juno,” for which Page received an Academy Award nomination among other accolades. His notable roles include Kitty Pryde in the “X-Men” series, Christopher Nolan’s “Inception,” “Whip It!” and Sony’s reboot of “Flatliners.” He has produced and starred in films such as “Tallulah” and “Freeheld,” and last year marked his directorial debut examining environmental racism faced by people of color and the First Nations communities of Canada. Prior to transition, Page was one of the most visible out gay actors in Hollywood. The Tuesday announcement further enriches his legacy, and adds him to a small but growing number of out trans creators and stars in Hollywood. This includes performers (Laverne Cox, Trace Lysette, Brian Michael Smith) and creators (The Wachowski Sisters, “Transparent” creator Joey Soloway). Last year, Variety broke the news of the groundbreaking overall content production deal that Netflix signed with Janet Mock, a noted trans storyteller and director of shows like “Pose” and “Hollywood.” | |

Facebook is losing their dam mind over this. Who the hell cares?! The homophonic remarks on these posts are just evil. At the end of the day does it affect any of them? No it does not. Not one little bit. I hope he finds the happiness he's been looking for at the end of his journey. Yeah, yeah, but your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could that they didn't stop to think if they should.

^I agree with you but somehow I think that happiness is not something that Elliot is going to find any time soon if ever. Being a public figure would already be difficult but being an actor/actress with an established profile is going to likely create so many problems for him that I suspect many projects that might have been offered to him will no longer be because producers prefers when it's their project that people talk about and not the people in it and you know this is going to be what anyone is talking about for the next few years. Long live the Brown Coats. | |
