As a high profile actor who's been operating as a woman in Hollywood for ages, it's a bit difficult to fully shift my mind to this new identity. I've seen them as Kitty Pryde, I've seen them as a female sidekick in Super. It's a shock, as someone who likes this actor's work and who's accepted them as a lesbian for so many years.

But ultimately, this is a journey that they've elected to take. After living as a lesbian for so many years, the prospect of living as a man has come to fruition. Coming out as gay in Hollywood was a big step, and it invited celebration and criticism. To now come out as transgender invites the same sort of attention, only more fervent now.

This isn't a process you put yourself through for attention, because for every expression of support you get, you get just as many people calling you mentally ill, attention seeking, a bad-faith actor for the "woke agenda" - even a traitor to your community. To come out as transgender must have taken a lot of time and courage to build up to.

I don't know what Elliot Page is going to do after his transition, but I support his decision. This is his choice to make, and while I need a period of time to adjust, I understand that this is a quality of life improvement for him and I wholeheartedly support his transition.
