Donald Trump‘s anti-trans executive order, revealing her new passport now lists her gender as ‘Male’.Trump’s executive order declares that the US government will only recognise two genders: male and female.In a series of TikTok posts, Schafer, best-known for her roles in HBO‘s Euphoria and The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes, explained her situation while also sharing her fears over the difficulties fellow trans individuals are likely to face as a result of the order.“I’m sure most of us remember on I think the first day of Trump’s presidency, he signed an executive order to declare only two genders recognized by the state, male and female assigned at birth,” Schafer said in the video. “As a result of this, which I wrote down because I want to get it right, the Bureau of Consular Affairs has frozen passport applications requesting a gender marker change or renewals or new applications with a gender marker deferring from an applicant’s gender assigned at birth.”Schafer said she initially doubted the policy would be put into action because “our president is a lot of talk… And today, I saw it on my new passport: male.”“Now, to specify, my gender markers were first changed in my teens, when I first got my driver’s license and then passports following, all have been female since then,” Schafer explained.

“The White Lotus” is back for Season 3, this time in Thailand (airing Sundays at 9 p.m. on HBO and Max). Executive producer David Bernad told The Post that when it comes to finding the perfect location for each season, “There’s a macro approach, which is ‘what’s a country that has a film community or local crew that also has a tax rebate that’s film friendly?’ We start in a broader sense, and each season has a larger theme.”Each season of the Mike White-created dark dramedy / mystery series follows a group of different wealthy miserable people on vacation at the fictional “White Lotus” luxury resort – and each season starts with a death, before slowly revealing the events leading up to the incident.

Thai White Lotus resort for vacations that will likely be anything but a vacation. Like past seasons, an implied fatal incident will be teased before going back in time to watch the events of the week before play out.
