Ellen Page is gay
Well, that's interesting.
http://gawker.com/ellen-page-comes-o...ium=socialflow Actress Ellen Page publicly came out as gay Friday evening, while giving a speech at Time to THRIVE, a national LGBTQ youth conference held in Las Vegas. "I'm here today because I am gay," Page told the assembled crowd, which responded with a standing ovation and a long chorus of cheers. "Whoo!" said Page, before continuing: Quote:
After her speech, the Human Rights Campaign, which organized the conference, congratulated Page on the front page of its website for "her brave decision to live openly and authentically." Last edited by Hammock Parties; 02-15-2014 at 01:09 AM.. |

Hollywood is a giant trash can of every freak, pervert, pedophile, sexual abuser and ****ed up in the head people I've ever seen anywhere.

As for the non-Netflix titles, I doubt there's a budget available on those Indie films to make those kind of changes and I'm not sure it makes much sense to change the name on older movies like X Men 3, Inception, et al. It would probably be confusing to the viewer as well, especially first time viewers. |

But this year, companies like Nielsen and Parrot Analytics have recently begun tracking usage so the numbers are far more accurate than last year at this time. |

Thanks. I asked because the whole dead naming thing seems like a big issue in that community. I wondered if Elliot would get riled up knowing the dead name was played on a screen all the time. Last edited by vailpass; 12-01-2020 at 10:01 PM.. |

For all us old farts here are some pointers in dealing with trans folk:
In light of Elliot Page coming out, we're going to go over some of the most basic trans/enby etiquette! Here are some of my top 15: 1. Don't use their birth name, not ever. You forget that shit ever existed 2. "You'll always be [dead name] to me" is not the compliment you think it is 🙃 3. "She is now a he" is a phrase y'all should drop from your trans phrase arsenal, effective immediately 4. Correct people if they use the wrong pronouns 5. Don't ask them what surgeries they've had or plan on having 6. "OMG I never would have known you were trans--" is also not the compliment you think it is 7. If you slip up on name/pronouns, just correct yourself and move on. Please, dear god, don't make it a big deal 8. Make an effort on pronouns 9. "He, she, it, whatever" is not the funny comment you think it is (@ my dad) 10. You don't get a special prize for using the right name and pronouns, 'tis a basic respect 🙂 Don't act like you're doing them a favor 11. Ask what you can do to support them!!!! 12. Everyone transitions in their own way and at their own pace. Y'all don't get to police that 13. Don't ask them if their label on their sexuality has changed. That's for them to know and y'all to find out 14. Please just be respectful 15. In the case of Elliot Page, it's safe to refer to roles he's played by the pronouns of the character being played (ex. he played a character named Juno, and Juno used she/her pronouns), but otherwise y'all should be using his actual pronouns, full stop. The more you know... |
