Adorable how? And why? It looks like a hundred other pics lifted off of someone's FB page. I don't see why it's a BD.

He’s a cute being. Was as Ellen too. It’s the candid nature that makes this photo great!

Yup. People with good bone structure and symmetrical features win at attractiveness no matter the gender identity. Good looking guy there

They’re both still queer.

So is his spouse now ungay?

Happy for him and glad that you find these posts reassuring, PP. I'm a bit older, and I think most in my generation mean to be supportive and inclusive, even if we sometimes seem clueless, especially with trans issues. Hopefully we will keep getting better. Best wishes to you and your child.

We don’t know what Elliot wants to do or will do but yes, testosterone would deepen Elliot’s voice, increase body/facial hair, and change their physique (able to gain more muscle, changes fat placement). There’s also top surgery to to remove breast tissue and less common (compared to MtF) bottom surgery like phalloplasty. Why? Because many trans people feel dysphoria when the outside doesn’t “match” the inside. It’s unsettling and uncomfortable.

Because it's happy, relaxed, with a dog - someone looking totally at ease with themselves. And I am glad to see THAT as the sort of image used with this news.

I used to work in news. You choose an image to go with a story that reinforces how you expect or want readers to interpret and experience the story. This image tells the story that we should accept this as happy news, normal news. I'm really glad for that.

So can someone explain the "he/they" request? Is this different from "he/him"? Or just a different way of requesting it?

So not a lesbian anymore?

Amazing actor, amazing activist, interesting person to boot! I hope, as another Canadian, he finds comfort at home here, where I think we are often more accepting, though not perfect.

Hopes for their happiness. This can’t be easy.

Really? I mean, really? You sure about that?
You and people like you who just love to display ignorance are frankly tiresome. No one is living their life to satisfy you, so just go away. Your time is up.

Good for him, I do wonder how his wife feels about it.

Very nice name. Best wishes to him.
