As a transgender filmmaker (writer/director/producer) who's also an actress, our stories and nuanced perspectives are more important than our token inclusion.
They think they can tell trans stories better than us because they don't know what we have to say or care.
Every win for Emilia Perez is a loss for transgender filmmakers because these voting entities are so desperate to APPEAR to award trans people and recognize their work that they'll give c*s people that tell our stories badly 12 awards and then forget we exist for the next decade.
