Canadian actor Elliot Page (Ellen Page) is back from being a woman to a man. He unveils a dramatic transformation with short hair.
‘Time’ released an interview on social media and website, ‘I am fully who I am.’ on the 16th with Elliot Page on the cover. This is the first time that Page has interviewed with the media since he revealed his sexual transformation.
Through the interview, He was finally allowed to cut his hair short when he was 9 years old and he said, “I felt like a boy. I wanted to be a boy. I would ask my mom if I could be someday.”
Page first posted that she is no longer a ‘she’ on his social media, saying that he is transgender in December last year. And also added that he goes by the name ‘Elliot’ and not ‘Ellen.’
Page referred that it is exciting and deeply grateful to reach this point in his life. And also, there is a mixture of fear and anxiety.
Page has also mentioned getting top surgery. So much of his energy was spent on being uncomfortable in his body, but now he has the energy back, and it has completely transformed his life.
Lastly, He said thanks to the privilege he had as an actor, he was able to come to the current position and hope that he would like to use that power to help transgender people in a way that he could.
