This is how you get people to pay attention to what you're trying to say. If you do it right you'll get the message out in a way that is positive. I don't agree with the whole trans thing in general because it literally makes no sense to me, but this person is an adult and makes her own decisions and I can respect that because she's not demanding I accept anything.

Hunter Schafer has revealed that she no longer wishes to accept transgender roles after her breakout performance in HBO’s young adult drama Euphoria.

The 25-year-old actress told GQ that she had been offered “tons of trans roles” but does not want her gender identity to define her work in the future.



“I don't want to be [reduced to] that, and I find it ultimately demeaning to me and what I want to do,” Schafer said. “I worked so hard to get to where I am, past these really hard points in my transition, and now I just want to be a girl and finally move on.”

Schafer said her ability to reject trans roles was a “privilege,” but she believes that she can further the cause of the transgender community simply by honing her craft.


“I know for a fact that I'm one of the most famous trans people in media right now, and I do feel a sense of responsibility, and maybe a little bit of guilt, for not being more of a spokesperson," she explained.

"But ultimately, I really do believe that not making it the centerpiece to what I'm doing will allow me to get further. And I think getting further and doing awesome s***, in the interest of ‘the movement,' will be way more helpful than talking about it all the time."

I do realize there are times that more action or louder discussion needs to be taken for a cause but how the progressives have tried to brow beat folks to accept their gender movement is not how you do it. 

I also appreciate how she sees that being typecast could be demeaning to her. Actors in general don't like being typecast (unless it's the only way they get jobs I suppose) and I can see how someone like her would be impacted more by it. She wants to be seen as more than her gender choice and that's not really different than someone like Pamela Anderson wanting to be seen as more than a blonde bimbo, T&A type. I think we can all relate to that in our own way. 

Unless your Winger and don't get a rat's rear end. He is a unique one and he's cool with it.    So it Drifter, just in a different way. Lol.
