  • Author and activist Janet Mock sat down with Ellen for the first time to talk about her personal story, advice for parents of kids in the LGBTQ community, what it's like to be the first trans woman of color to write, produce and direct a TV show, and create reflections of herself and her community on hit drama "Pose."

      Elle has been doing so much since she's come out 20 years ago. She's in her early 60's now and she's losing touch with the LGBT community a bit. I knew that when she told Janet that she never knew of her until recently. As much as an influence Ellen has been there are many others that she can pass the torch to.

    I am so happy there are people out there help us all be more understanding. We also need to tell the kids that not everyone feels like they need a gender change. I've started to see more and more kids confused on if they should be questioning their gender and who they like. It's okay to stay a boy if you are born a boy. It's okay to stay a girl if you are born a girl. But of course it's okay to make a change if it feels right.

    Wow she really looks amazing. I think for trans people is very important to start transitioning before the puberty hits. They will be happier with how they will look for the rest of their life, cause I have notice the later you transition the harder it is.

    • @jaustin97601
      @jaustin97601 5 лет назад +7

      While we definitely should increase access to care for trans youth so that they have the option to transition early, let's not push stereotypes that transgender people need to pass as the gender they identify as. Some trans people choose not to do hormones or surgery, and their identities are just as valid as someone who does.

    • @OneLoveRSR
      @OneLoveRSR 5 лет назад +3

      That's ignorant. There are plenty of cisgender people who don't necessarily look like their assigned gender. There are some cisgender people who are androgynous regardless of puberty. Transitioning isn't about "looking" like their assigned gender. Transitioning is about aligning their bodies with their assigned gender. There are plenty of masculine "looking" cisgender women. There are plenty of feminine "looking" cisgender men.

    I believe everyone should live their truth -- but I don't think kids should be reassigning their gender identity. Children are very fluid -- more so than society sometimes wants them to be.
