It's not like they even have to step aside, per se. There's no shortage of roles for straight white CIS men. Is potentially losing out on a trans role really such a hardship?

In any case I've seen Laverne Cox in a couple of roles where she wasn't explicitly trans-coded, so I don't think there's much to his argument. Surely the whole point is that we get to a point where trans actors don't need to play roles that are 100% defined by their gender journey?
 
I do agree with the point COB made about under representation and I think that’s what lolly was referring to as well, but I’ve often seen the argument misinterpreted as this fixed support for marginal people suggesting that only they know how to play the roles, but by that token acting is void. I agree about fixing the imbalance and under representation first, as long as people recognise that acting opportunities should generally be open. It would be grotesque to push the narrative to the point where gay people have to stick to gay roles and trans people have to stick to trans roles.

Should they have given Brenda Fraser’s role in The Whale to an obese person? Obese people are underrepresented in cinema. I don’t think it’s strictly a trans issue.
 
It absolutely isn't about only trans people being able to play trans roles - it's more about opportunity and representation.
 
Surely those in the replies goading him for buckling and apologising to a pile on have the self awareness to see that they are in fact piling on?
 
The fact that it’s LIGHT makes it sound particularly undesirable. Who wants THAT?

It’s perfect to have 7 of on a sunny day outside. Something stronger and I can’t do that
 
I've only ever had Buckfast once, in a cocktail with mezcal in a rather overpriced establishment in Cardiff. I don't remember what it tasted like, just that it served a purpose.

Did you talk a load of shit and have your knickers down by 21:00? That’s the magic of Buckfast :disco:
