Elliot Page has come out as transgender.
“I feel lucky to be writing this.
To have arrived at this place in my life.”
Page’s announcement was greeted with congratulations and support from fans and followers, as well as GLAAD.
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.
Trans actressLaverne Coxtold her own social media followers just days ago thatshe suffered a transphobic attack over the weekend.
But, Page wrote, this just makes them want to fight harder for widespread acceptance.
“I love that I am trans.
And I love that I am queer.
Thank you for reading this.”
