[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Here is something I don't understand. Eliot Page is a he/him. How is he also queer? If he likes women, how is he queer? His post says he is transgender and queer. [/quote] Queer is sort of all encompassing of people who live/love outside of the completely binary gay/straight cis/trans lines. So a trans man and a cis woman might sort of outwardly exhibit "straight" in a photo or something but they likely will deal with some issues that straight/cis folks won't or might feel more connected to the rest of the queer community just because one is "man" and one is "woman" There really isn't an analog to it with other issues. And its varies from person to person. I think in previous generations, trans folks were much more focused on the goal of being the other gender, there wasn't as much of an option to be this thing in between, proudly trans. It was more could you "pass" or not.[/quote]
