Actor Elliot Page celebrates 'trans joy' in new Instagram post

| @indiablooms | May 12, 2023, at 06:01 am

The Umbrella Academy star Elliot Page, who came out as transgender in 2020, shared a post celebrating "trans joy." 

He posted a shirtless picture of himself on social media and wrote about how gender-affirming care has changed his life.

"Dysphoria used to be especially rife in the summer. No layers, just a T-shirt - or layers and oh so sweaty - constantly looking down, readjusting my oversized T," Page wrote.

"It feels so f****** good soaking in the sun now, I never thought I could experience this, the joy I feel in my body. I am so grateful for what gender affirming care has allowed me and I look forward to sharing more of my journey soon," the star added the hashtag #transjoy to the post.

Page thanked his supporters and added, "I feel overwhelming gratitude for the incredible people who have supported me along this journey. I can't begin to express how remarkable it feels to finally love who I am enough to pursue my authentic self."
