Hunter Schafer has shared that the gender marker on her passport has been changed to list her as male. The “Euphoria” actress posted a video on social media in which she explained that she had to get a new passport after her original was stolen while she was filming in Spain last year. “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,” the 26-year-old said. “Hasn’t really been a problem.” But now, because of an executive order from the new presidential administration, her new passport has an “M” for male. The “Cuckoo” star said she was “not making this post to fear-monger, or to create drama, or receive consolation, I don’t need it.” “But I do think it’s worth posting to sort of note the reality of the situation and that it’s happening,” she continued. “I was shocked. I just didn’t think it was actually going to happen.”
