“I do feel like I kind of barely made it in many ways. But today, I'm just me and grateful to be here and alive and taking one step at a time.”
Speaking to People about sharing such personal experiences with the world, Elliot was keen to emphasize his understanding that his journey may be very different to that of other people in the trans community.“My experience as a trans person and this life I have, and the privilege I have does not represent the reality of most trans lives,” he told the outlet, before acknowledging the importance of representation.
“I think it's crucial, I think we need to feel represented and see ourselves, you know, that's not something I had like as a kid,” he said. “The reality is, trans people disproportionately are unemployed, disproportionately experience homelessness. Trans women of color are being murdered. People are losing their healthcare or couldn't access it.
