If I let it happen, it would still be giving \u2018Transsexual Actress\u2019 before every article ever,\u201d Schafer said, mentioning avoiding the word \u201ctrans\u201d while giving interviews now. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cAs soon as I say it, it gets blastoff,\u201d Schafer added. \u201cIt took a while to learn that and it also took a while to learn that I don\u2019t want to be [reduced to] that, and I find it ultimately demeaning to me and what I want to do. Especially after high school, I was sick of talking about it. I worked so hard to get to where I am, past these really hard points in my transition, and now I just want to be a girl and finally move on.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cIt\u2019s a privilege, but it\u2019s been very intentional,\u201d the \u201cEuphoria\u201d star continued. \u201cI\u2019ve gotten offered tons of trans roles, and I just don\u2019t want to do it. I don\u2019t want to talk about it.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Schafer talked about having more responsibility due to fame.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cI know for a fact that I\u2019m one of the most famous trans people in media right now, and I do feel a sense of responsibility, and maybe a little bit of guilt, for not being more of a spokesperson,\u201d Schafer told the outlet. \u201cBut ultimately, I really do believe that not making it the centerpiece to what I\u2019m doing will allow me to get further. And I think getting further and doing awesome sh**, in the interest of \u2018the movement,\u2019 will be way more helpful than talking about it all the time.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Unlike other trans-identifying celebrities, Schafer said it doesn\u2019t matter what other people say.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><a href=\"https:\/\/onelink.to\/dwapp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" aria-describedby=\"sk-tooltip-9096\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=https:\/\/onelink.to\/dwapp&#038;source=gmail&#038;ust=1712245447014000&#038;usg=AOvVaw259gdy9LGyeAJghxwMwQqU\">CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILYWIRE+ APP<\/a><\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cI\u2019ve kind of lost interest in achieving some sort of utopia,\u201d the \u201cEuphoria\u201d star told GQ. \u201cI am totally cool with people hating me for being trans or calling me a man.
