Ellen Page publicly comes out as a transgender male named Elliot, says: 'My pronouns are he/they' | Daily Mail Online

I don't care if she is transgender.. and she should live her life however she wants. Although I won't consider Ellen a "he".

But, I was reading this story, and wondering what does that mean for her wife?

The wife is now married to, what people that follow this ideology believe, to be a man. Many will believe she was always a man.

Does this mean that the wife is no longer a lesbian and the wife is, and always was, a cis, hetero woman?

Good for him?

Would've been shocking just a short time ago.

Now it's like "who cares?"

It means when they switch he has to take the strap on.

I wonder if that's going to screw things up for "The Umbrella Academy"?

So, she's never liked dick (as an example).. But has to be a bi now? Her identity makes no difference?

I hope not, that is a fun show

You know she didn't? Just because someone has a preference does not mean they are against other options completely.

 

[Visbek]

I don't care if she is transgender.. and she should live her life however she wants. Although I won't consider Ellen a "he".

If you don't care, then why not use the proper pronouns?

But, I was reading this story, and wondering what does that mean for her wife?

I have no idea. Obviously, they have to deal with it. Why is that your concern?

Does this mean that the wife is no longer a lesbian and the wife is, and always was, a cis, hetero woman?

What it means is that maybe you should let them deal with it. To whatever extent it is anyone else's business, they'll fill us in.

How nice of you. No, wait, what you're saying is crass and disrespectful.

It's up to them to figure it out, and only tell the public what they want to share.

Or, rather than make insulting assumptions, you could read a little more about this:

EW: Elliot Page's wife is 'so proud' of him for coming out as transgender: 'Love you so much'

Elliot Page's wife is 'so proud' of him for coming out as transgender: 'Love you so much'

'Elliot's existence is a gift in and of itself,' Emma Portner wrote of her husband after the Oscar nominee came out as transgender.

No, i do not know for certain. But, assuming she is a gold star lesbian or didn't like dick, does that mean she is now bi just because ellen proclaims she is a man? How about Ellen's prior girlfriends who might be lesbians and not like men.. have they always been bi now?

How about the other partners where (for example) the husband proclaims he is now a she and will often end in a divorce. Was that wife always a lesbian but unaware until the husband came out as a she?

I'm so glad that she is proud. Not sure how that impacts thequestion of.. Does that mean that the wife is no longer a lesbian but is hetero now?

She always looked like a boy

How about it's not your concern -- as you yourself claimed -- and you should simply let them figure it out?

 

[buck]

How about instead of that, I ask a different question... If she was with a guy at one time, is that guy now gay? He's now been with an (alleged) male, at least many of this ideology believe that.

 

[Gondwanaland]

If you don't care, then why not use the proper pronouns?

He did use the proper pronouns.....

 

[buck]

She always looked like a boy

Eh, I dunno.. I really only know her from Juno.. Didn't think she looked masculine in that movie. I do see, with an image search, that she looks more boyish in some of her more recent pictures. At least more so then I remember.

 

[ProgressPlease]

Now it's like "who cares?"

Not surprising, though Ellen/Elliot is older (33) than the current demographic identifying as trans in the largest numbers (adolescent natal females)

Who cares? Lots of young lesbians who lost yet another role model.

 

[Visbek]

How about instead of that, I ask a different question... If she was with a guy at one time, is that guy now gay?

How about you stop with the truly bizarre (if not downright homophobic and transphobic) questions? And while you're at it, use the correct pronouns.

Congratulations to Elliot Page!

So, a straight guy is now gay because a girl he slept with decided she was a boy? and the lesbian is now straight because the girl she slept with now decided she was a he. That's what is truly bizarre.

Reality is not dependent on whether you comprehend it.

Great. I can't wait for your wisdom. Lay it on me.

 

[Gondwanaland]

I think that is something better suited to be said to Ellen Page.
