[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are films that he made as Ellen\her page still credited as Ellen and a movie like Juno is it still referred to as her or his work? [/quote]

Deadnaming is not appropriate anymore. I think because this has just been announced media outlets will refer to Ellen Page but it will not go on in the future. Of course, they are not going to be able to re-edit films and credit/title sequences once they are in the can. Here's one style guide: https://www.thewrap.com/transgender-deadnaming-elliot-page-lgbtq-organizations/[/quote]

OMG.  I read that article.  It is absolutely no wonder people are afraid to ask questions about anything involving LGBTQ-issues.  This “community” will bite your head off if you mistakenly choose the wrong pronouns or terminology.  “Deadname”??   :roll:  :roll:

No one will bite your head off for mistakenly using the wrong name or pronoun once. They will correct you.

You deliberately using the wrong name or pronoun repeatedly because you're uncomfortable with it or you just don't care to is a different story. [/quote]
