She's the He!

    Saw a showing of She's the He tonight with Stella and oooooh my god THIS was the trans movie I've been waiting for! Like holy shit not only is it a great comedy but it's so sweet and so real about realizing you're trans. Everyone needs to see this as soon as it's available to rent

    Happy International Men's Day, esp to Trans, GNC, NBi, multi-gendered, and Intersex Men. Never forget that there are a whole bunch of diverse men out there! + so many are queer badasses & heartthrobs, like Emmett Preciado and Nico Carney 💙 (both star in the all queer/Trans film "She's The He") 💖

    The film is made by and stars trans people and the trailer literally goes out of its way to say this. OUT is deliberately leaving out this context to get hate clicks and it's fucking disgusting. Anyway here's the trailer for She's The He, which looks really campy and cute.

    SHE'S THE HE is probably the best queer movie I've seen so far this year. "Two stupid boys decide to pretend they're trans women to get with girls" sounds like the plot of a Daily Wire production, but Misha Osherovich sells the hell out of their "boy" character realizing that she isn't a boy.
