The trans joy just radiates.
Such a disappointment that Luke Willis, director of Lady Like was not featured in this story.
Does anyone really see anything other than a deeply unhappy woman?
From kida hot woman into puny manlet... This person did actually switched life mode from easy to insane. Mental health damage would not be a suprise for such move.
These comments, yikes.
Looks really unwell.
Why does she have such a hard time making eye contact?
"They" need to leave minor's alone!
When you look at that female’s (who calls themselves Elliot Page) face, you just see deep internal pain.
If your referring to the lines on their face, that's aging for you and years of eating problems puts strain on the body
There is a strong link between gender dysmorphia and other issues such as autism, not often discussed but clear when you interact with them.
@@meme4one gender dysmorphia is an outdated term you mean dysphoria its not like body dysmorphia as its not like trans people are seeing their body a different way its a medical condition not a mental condition and yes many autistic people identify as trans or as non binary out with of the umbrella, we don't know what the exact connection is but its likely more likely the autism has no connection to the trans identity beyond social presentation in some minor cases.
@@hidinginplainsite No, you can see their soul is filled with deep, obvious pain.
I always thought elliot page was ellens pages brother.
😂😂😂 It’s her alter ego.
Worth a prayer. Simply for this individual to feel actual happiness. This individual seems to be found with despair and darkness, and stress!! All the time it seems. Never seen Eli0tt or 3llen for that matter, happy. Awkward laughter at most I see in interviews. I hope for mending these wounds wherever these wounds are. Once you become an activist for example, it's hard to tone it all down, for someone like St. Paul, it took divine intervention. There's no letting up zeal, we are too proud, and the world is too vicious. Self-actualization is also a very hard paradigm to confront, because inner discovery of the 'true self,' and sculpting the 'true self' is our creed and our only acceptable avenue of a plight with higher calling these days. But I believe we are lost, I don't think the self heals the self. I believe in reconciling with one another, making amends here. Because our culture is flawed, nobody's happy, or ever finished fixing themselves. We need to agree we can't adequately have or communicate the answers, we are fallible people, all fallen and troubled in our own unique ways. That's why I don't want kids told they need to become their 'real self,' and have gend3r changes marketed to them as being lollipops and rainbows, by indoctrinated parents, and giddy teachers. That's why I want an amnesty and disarmament with activism, we can't behave as if the kids changing g3nders will satisfy and actualize them. Self consciousness will thieve their joy, just as comparison and actualization has done to us grown ups. Why pretend it's cute, it's clinical and bleak. Our desires are insatiable. INSATIABLE. I beg for soundness rather.
Good luck with the film, but I have to say.. "You don't need men to thrive"? No offence but its you thats making that political. You do need men to thrive, just like men need women, or guess what? No humans left. If you are so adamant that you don't need men, just step outside and take a look around, almost every single thing you see was designed, built, and is maintained by men. Your house, plumbing, electricity, roads, roofs, windows, pavements, signs, cars, trucks, trains, oil refineries, mines, manufacturing..you name it. All of that would not exist without men, and still, even today, even with women being able to walk into any line of work..all those fundamentally important jobs that so massively improve your life, are all done by minimum 99.99% of men. Jobs that women choose not to do. So just stop with the putting down of men, you don't have to make things for us, but theres no need for this utter delusional, political nonsense...not unless you're willing to put on a hard hat and grab a spade.

agree
Trans-damaged women are relentless misandrists.
@@ribbrascal1065 Ah, this is about that woman with long hair on the left coach, but I initially didn't understood that. Not sure why this has to do with "trans damage" tho.
Well said.

I honestly can't remember anything this chick has been in. Why is she famous?
Inception. Quite a big movie.
Juno (one of THE most recognisable names in indie coming-of-age cinema) Multiple Xmen films (as Kitty Pryde) Inception. I'm sure you've heard of that. Hard Candy (incredible film.) Whip It. Pretty big movie names. Also played the lead Mo Capped character in the Quantic Dream game Beyond Two Souls. Ofc, this is ALL pre-transition lol, hasn't done anything AS notable since - apart from maybe Umbrella Academy, but even then, no more blockbusters since transitioning. I imagine for the sake of focusing more on cinema that addresses these social issues EP deals with. But idk lol
@@KROMAprd If she is mentally-ill enough to transition she is probably awful to work with. She will probably just end up another trans statistic and be forgotten like the rest.
She was the 'go-to' actress for vinegary, cynical leftist roles. Played them to a tee!
Identify politics doesn’t get many views.
Cringe
We will always support ghjd channel. They're one of the best.
I feel nauseous. 😷
Just sad
Hilarious garbage they produce today 😅 , 90s now that was a great decade for MOVIES

So why r u here?

Super CRINGE
Hilarious, Sams mum misgenders it 😅
Wtf
It's sad when people don't love who they are, I don't think surgery and hormones will ever fix their problems
Yuck

Page has lost his mind. He looked and sounded better as Ellen Page. I don't understand why he hated himself when everyone else loved him when he was female. There is XX and XY, nothing else and yet, this trans-delusion exists to corrupt the pure image of a man or woman.
Clueless.
Ewwwwww
She.
The comments on this are abysmal. This is a celebration of art, and someone's expression of their experience, and you all want to say such vile and hateful things? Look at yourselves and the bile that comes out of your mouths
It’s an old chestnut, but sometimes truth sounds like hate to those who hate the truth.
@@PurpleMonkeyDishwasher-69 exactly what a bigot would say
@@amandable7106 - So, you’re saying bigots speak truth?
@@amandable7106 "exactly what a bigot would say" exactly what an idiot without an argument would say
That’s a woman
