In this feature Scott opens up about being bullied, living as a Trans woman and how those experiences help shaped her into becoming an advocate. Check out an excerpt of her interview!<\/p>\n

Q:<\/strong> What advice would you offer to other rising transgender\/LGBTQ+ stars about the promise and the peril of using their platforms with both dignity and caution while opportunity and representation in mass media remains as limited as it does?<\/p>\n

A:<\/strong> I would say to always be authentic. Many times, as trans people we\u2019re expected to tiptoe, minimizing ourselves in order to be digestible. To me, it\u2019s best to always be yourself, be strong and be proud. The right opportunities will come.<\/p>\n

Q<\/strong>: What has been the biggest hurdle for you as a Trans Woman?<\/p>\n

A:<\/strong> Everything. I fight for my respect and to live my life as I am daily. In this country my existence is questioned and threatened. I can only hope that one day trans people won\u2019t have to fight for basic human rights.<\/p>\n
