I was watching the show Euphoria on HBO the other night, and I surprised when one of my friends told me the actor Hunter Schafer was a man. They are out here setting up traps.

I can’t lie - I was a little surprised when my friend told me Hunter Schafer from Euphoria was a man.  Clearly they are setting up traps because no one saw this one coming!

Surprisingly, many transgender and nonbinary people face similar types of gender-based discrimination when it comes to Hollywood roles and castings. According to a 2018study from the Screen Actor’s Guild, less than 6% of acting roles in film & television represented those that are LGBTQ+ identified. Additionally, almost half of the surveyed actors identified as nonbinary or gender-nonconforming individuals. Unfortunately, these specific types of identification often resulted in audition rejection compared to their cisgender (persons whose gender identity matches the sex they were assigned at birth) counterparts. 

Hopefully this information can help us understand and be more sensitive to our communities and recognize the systematic bias within Hollywood casting practices. We must be open-minded and strive for true diversity behind as well as in front of the camera since it not only reflects culture but also encourages future generations of different identities to explore their talents! Let's embrace uniqueness together! #Euphoria#NonBinary
