As fucked up as it is of me to think, I can't help but have this little feeling in the back of my head any time a celebrity comes out as trans that they're doing it merely for the media coverage. I totally support the trans community, but I'm also a terribly pessimistic person.

There's trans people that want people to know, and others that are more secretive about it (For example, I've only told close friends and family).

Not out of shame or anything, just that I'm a very private person.

Fair enough. I'm not making a knock at them, it's just a weird feeling I always get in the back of my head. Usually because I expect the worst out of people. :v:

It's great she came out and all but the worst part about all this is that she's been transitioned for awhile and the Daily Mail essentially forced her to come out. They threatened her. I wish she could've kept it private like she wanted.
[QUOTE=Pretiacruento;49897731]Good thing they didn't go with that, otherwise it wouldn't have made any real sense, specially if it wasn't going to be addressed in the movie. "Wait--Neo gets out of the matrix and this chick called Switch that was there assisting them, is now a dude? What did we miss?" Neo would be just as confused as the viewers.[/QUOTE] How would it be out of place though? It's the fucking Matrix - everything makes little to no sense already so I doubt nobody would mind
[QUOTE=Limed00d;49904794]How would it be out of place though? It's the fucking Matrix - everything makes little to no sense already so I doubt nobody would mind[/QUOTE] Especially since what you look like in the matrix is based on how you perceive yourself. That's how Neo had hair.
[QUOTE=RichyZ;49905519]you could easily fix that with 1 whole line "you can be whoever you want to be in the matrix"[/QUOTE] Yeah, pretty much Just have her in the scene on-camera directly before and after leaving it, have neo look confused, then have her say that
[QUOTE=Liem;49896229] [QUOTE=Article] In a statement to Windy City News, Lilly said she was at risk of being outed by the media. [/QUOTE] [/QUOTE] it's sad that being "outed" as trans is a thing

People are already doing reexamination of the Matrix trilogy and ass pulling a bunch of sexual references.
[QUOTE=nuttyboffin;49907176]That's me.... 1 2 4 8 16 32 64 It gets deafening real quick...[/QUOTE] I do the same but by decibel value.
[QUOTE=Swilly;49909254]People are already doing reexamination of the Matrix trilogy and ass pulling a bunch of sexual references.[/QUOTE] They did that when the first brother also came out, I bet it's the exact same references now as back then.
