Is using an old picture of Elliot Page


and referencing women


considererd poor form? Honest question, I really don't know the etiquette.

The meme isn't really referencing the actor, but rather the character. Eliot might not be a woman, but the character is. When cis guys play female characters, we still refer to the character as female. I don't see why it should be any different when a trans guy plays a female character.
