Elliot Page Claims Critics of Transgenderism Are Profoundly Uncomfortable With Themselves

What was said

"Try and block out the noise from, you know, absolute vile losers who must just be so profoundly uncomfortable with themselves they can't handle that someone could get to a place that I think, you know, that trans people do get to which is a level of self-acceptance and understanding that I think is really beautiful and profound."

Actor Elliot Page, promoting a film about same-sex relationships in animals and appearing in Christopher Nolan's upcoming Odyssey adaptation, characterized critics of transgender people as "absolute vile losers" who are deeply uncomfortable with themselves. The comments come amid controversy over Page's casting in the Odyssey film. Commentators on the podcast criticized Page's mental health and noted that depression, anxiety and suicide rates do not decrease after transition, with anxiety rates potentially increasing.
