Elliot Page Says Transphobic Slurs Have Become His New Reality
Emell Adolphus READ TIME: 1 MIN.
Elliot Page continues to share more bombshells about what life has been like since coming out as transgender in 2020, in promotion of their upcoming memoir "Pageboy," and the next one is hardly a shocker.
As reported by TMZ, Page shared with the LA Times that transphobic slurs have become a normal part of life. More bombshells continue to be shared from Elliot Page says a guy hurled a transphobic threat at him last year -- something he says has become a reality since coming out as transgender in 2020.
In fact, just last year, the actor shared that a man yelled at him while he was walking to a convenience store in WeHo.
The man reportedly screamed, "I'm going to f****** gay bash you, f*****." Page also claimed that the man followed that up by yelling, "This is why I need a gun!"
Page reportedly went inside and asked an employee for help after the experience left him shaken. But he noted that he was lucky that he could afford resources such as private security to protect him from such incidents.
Page has been spilling major tea in promotion of his book, including sharing that he is estranged from his father and that a major A-lister once told him, before his transition, that being gay doesn't exist and he was just afraid of men. The celeb then reportedly said that he was "going to "f***" him to prove it."
