That's very logical and easy to understand. Personally I wouldn't be upset if I was Elliott, but there are many trans people who have a strong aversion to hearing their old name. Again, comes down to the audience, but a lot of folks would say something like, "before he transitioned", rather than mentioning the old name.

Hope I don't sound too nitpicky, just wanted to say it in case it helps.

Hi, trans person here. I often describe my life before beginning to transition as an act or a job I had to perform, but wasn't really me. Anything I did in my old role was done by me, not the character.

In Elliot's case, he was a dude playing a dudette, dressed up as another dudette. Whatever performance was happening on or off camera doesn't ultimately change who the person actually is.

Now I need a negative perspective on why I shouldn't try and move to the beautiful country that is Spain.

I started sewing for cosplay a couple years ago and was surprised at how much fun it is. Haven't tried sewing everyday clothes yet, but that would be a good idea!

Don't know why you are down voted. I didn't leave reddit because I disliked the platform, I left because I disliked the leadership. Lemmy is an attempt at creating a similar platform.

From another article:
"Researchers also studied the five-year outcomes among all transgender and cisgender patients with cirrhosis. Interestingly, despite the differences in the two groups, the number of possible negative outcomes of cirrhosis -- liver failure, liver transplant and liver cancer, as well as death, by any cause -- was the same."

I'm guessing that since most trans people are regular patients to some degree, they are more likely to take early preventative measures.

Somebody has never had kosher cookies. You're missing out.

Edit: a quick Google shows I may be the only one to call them that.

The person who shot Ronald Reagan, their motive was wanting to impress Jodi Foster.

I kind of doubt someone could have told what outfit the gunmen was wearing in that scenario.
