Why Hunter Schafer Spoke Out After Being Issued Male Passport

Euphoria’s Hunter Schafer Says She Was Issued Male Passport After Trump Executive Order

Hunter Schafer is finding power in her voice. 

After the Euphoria star revealed that her new United States passport listed her gender as male despite holding female-marked government documents for years, she shared why she decided to speak out.

“It was a sort of spur-of-the-moment thing,” Hunter exclusively told E! News on the Film Independent Spirit Awards red carpet Feb. 22. “I’m still processing what’s happened. But in the moment, I felt like it was important to share what was going on.” (For more from stars at the Film Independent Spirit Awards, tune into E! News tonight, Feb. 24, at 11 p.m.)

The 26-year-old, who came out as transgender in the ninth grade, shared the update in a Feb. 21 TikTok Story after receiving her new passport. 

“To specify,” she added, “my gender marker was first changed in my teens when I first got my driver’s license and then my passports following—all have been female since then.”
