I don’t think one actress should play Aphrodite I think it should be multiple woman of different races and looks because beauty isn’t just white woman alone or black woman alone or Asian woman alone or any other race alone. everyone is beautiful and that is who Aphrodite is, she is beauty.

for any trans kid out there who’s had people try to invalidate you with “God doesn’t make mistakes”

Do not share news articles where Leelah Alcorn is misgendered. 
If you cannot find one where she is not misgendered, share a tumblr post. Share the link to her blog. Make a post and share it. But do not be active in her misgendering.
