“At the end of the day, trans people are less than 1% of the population and trans people are not the reason you can’t afford eggs, that you can’t afford healthcare. We’re not the reason you can’t buy a house or your rent’s too high. I think they’re focused on the wrong 1%. I think the other one percent is the reason for all those things.”

- Trans actor Laverne Cox

Ironically, the only news source where I could find her quote was FOX News!

@augieray wouldn't you say "actress"?
@Pandora Not sure what's right here, but "actor" is considered a gender-neutral term in modern usage. Actress is not.
@augieray since it's Laverne Cox, yes, it is correct to say 'actress'.

@Pandora @augieray

Would you say "Doctoress"?

Would you say "Mechanicess"?

Would you say "Pilotess"?

Actor: One who acts.
