Yes she is

I am a 60 year old straight white woman who has the utmost respect and admiration for this woman. She has a phenomenal message about living her truth. My 35 year old son came out as gay when he was 15 and I've always admired his bravery in doing so. It's still scary for me to know that he is navigating this world with the hate that exists for people who dare to live an honest existence rather than what may seem like a safer existence, but I wouldn't want him to do anything different. I've known of and heard the stories of a lot of people with gender identification struggles but Dominique's story has given me the greatest understanding of how important living the truth is because of the lengths she has taken to be the person she was born to be. I realize that the greatest truth I can live is to have faith in and support other people who live their truth, without question.

@jenniferloftus2363

3 жыл бұрын

Let me reassure you that the fact that your son came out at 15 is part of the reason it is safer for him to be out at 35. Every one of us who stood up and said we are here, we are queer, get used to it added one more voice to a symphony that couldn't be ignored. We turned out to be more than just a joke on late night tv. It was easier to hate when there were less visibly out people. There are still people who disown their kids or hate their family members for being gay but it's not socially acceptable to do that any longer. It's a stunning reversal, but it's a great evolution, if that makes sense. You used to be encouraged to hate queer and trans folk, but now that has changed. The country is changing so quickly that some want to pump the brakes but it's too late. They lost the cultural war and they're losing the legal wars now. The act of identification was a courageous act of resistance. We have to remember to stay visible and stay vigilant because hate still stalks us, but every person like your son helps hold the door open to love. The majority walk through it, which is a wonderful thing.

Around the part of her story about her childhood, hitting puberty and growing breast instead of going through what thee othe boys were going through. Her family not speaking on what she really was all along/unbinding her breast?????? I was VERY VERY confused and lost. I was waiting for the answer as of to why she grew the breast at the early age. I was thinking she was going to tell us maybe she was some sort of hermaphrodite or something of the sort. But she wasnt and she later took the harmons to trans. So I was just waiting for that reveal that never came or added up.... I love the story and streangth. I was born a women and she has me beat on looks hands down!

She speaks so eloquently...”I don’t live in frustration; I’m too beautiful for that” - I’m going to have to adopt that mantra! ❤️

What she said is why I stopped going to church. They think its ok to judge shame hurt ridicule etc bcuz of what they think you doing in your bedroom. Ive never heard it broke down like that before. The truth in that statement is so profound. I still have my relationship with my God but as for going to a so call temple...i will pass. I grew up missionary baptist. So judgemental its absurd. Love you Dominique thank you for sharing!!!

Wow it sounds like she is actually intersex and this is something that we are not taught enough about. I didn’t even know it was a thing until I started pre reqs for nursing. We need to be more proactive in our learning and this is why I gravitate towards those things that make me uncomfortable, it shows there’s growth to be had.

I just discovered the series Pose and it motivated me to learn a whole lot more about the struggles of transgender women. A lot of the subjects displayed in the series I had never given a second thought to as a cis gendered woman. I must say, that it has opened my eyes to the reality that although cis gendered women face dificulties in today's society, our fellow transgender women face a whole other level of difficulties that I had never even dreamed of. I am so proud of the actors/actresses who portrayed their talents on this show and opened my eyes to different realities.

She is amazing! Smart, beautiful, talented, and strength in the face of such adversity. Her acting skills are mesmerizing. Appreciate her so much.

Trans no Trans We are all WOMAN 🙏🏻 ❤️

Love this video. I'm from Trinidad and Tobago myself. I'm not trans but I am gay, you yourself knows the judgemental place here is. My not out to the world but I'm starting to get more comfortable with myself and starting to come out to selective friends and it was love across the board. As recent as last week. Thanks for sharing

This woman is such a great actress I’m obsessed with her, loooove the Elektra character keep the good job!

I'm from Trinidad myself and I am on a journey to understand transgender and drag. Although I am extremely happy as a Male. I'm trying to understand. This brought a lot of clarity. 👍😊

@@mariahyohannes I would say no. Trinidad like any other country island has a deep rooted history in Religion, hence the reason we cannot really be described predominantly as anyone and most operator here. And as is endemic to most religious societies is a misconception of gay life and culture and at the pinnacle Transgender people. I say all that to say yes but it's not the same as other places. I have not seen an attack gay persons physically unless gays were making passes at them. Cyber attacks, verbal attacks and public shaming is extremely common though even by other in the society.

@@mariahyohannes yes trinidad is a homophobic place. And gays are bullied and belittled. There are open minded people and they are very supportive of the LGBT community in trinidad but in general the answer to your question is yes.

It's an island thing. 🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲

She is the most articulate person I have ever heard

I AM SOOO HAPPY THAT GOD MADE SUCH A BEAUTIFUL AWESOME LADY. BIG HUG MY SISTER 😘🤗💜

People who complain about her acting should watch this. She's playing a CHARACTER most know in the "scene"

"I don't live in frustration, I'm too beautiful for that" WERK!

She’s so charismatic in the show pose- it would not have been the same without her !

"I don't live in frustration I'm too beautiful for that" iconic 💖

What a beautiful, dynamic individual she is!!!!

Such a pleasure to listen to her. I love her authenticity, sharpness and humility.

"the battle of not accepting yourself... of not being yourself is absolute frustration. and I don't live in frustration, i'm too beautiful for that" 💜

Im so happy for watching Pose. I’m inspired by all the cast 💕 been doing a lot of research on the trans people situation and looking of ways of being an ally on their fight. We need to embrace each other’s fight.

A remarkable and courageous woman. Pose introduced me to her, I'm working backwards here to educate myself more about her personal story. She is helping to open doors for other trans women. All power to her, firstly for sharing her truth and secondly for just living her life with grace and dignity and showing other people that they don't need to hide or feel ashamed.

She really is something. I'd love to see her in Vogue and beyond.

SHE. IS. FANTASTIC!

*That "PRIEST" is no priest at all. those actions are by the devil. Molesting a child and taking advantage of a child's faith is just wrong. Dominique is just so strong she is so amazing I look up to her so much. I send hugs and kisses to Dominique!! LOVE YOU!!!*

She is so beautiful

She's so pretty. I'm glad she chose to live her life in a way that makes her happy.
