Page included shoutouts to TransSanta, an initiative launched by Indya Moore from \"Pose\" to get gifts to transgender youth during the holiday season, as well as Trans Lifeline, a peer support and crisis hotline for transgender people.
In the Oscar-nominated actor's post from three weeks ago, he said he \"can't begin to express how remarkable it feels to finally love who I am enough to pursue my authentic self.\"
The \"Umbrella Academy\" star also thanked loved ones for their support and the transgender community for their \"courage,\" their \"generosity\" and for \"ceaselessly working to make this world a more inclusive and compassionate place.\"

Page, who came out as gay in 2014, also said he is \"profoundly happy right now\" but also noted that he is \"scared of the invasiveness, the hate, the 'jokes' and of violence\" he may experience as a transgender person.
Calling out his own \"privilege,\" Page cited a statistic from the Human Rights Campaign that at least 40 transgender or gender non-conforming people have been murdered this year, with his post noting that \"the majority of which were Black and Latinx trans women.\"
\"I love that I am trans. And I love that I am queer,\" Page added at the time. \"And the more I hold myself close and fully embrace who I am, the more I dream, the more my heart grows and the more I thrive.\"
He concluded, \"To all trans people who deal with harassment, self-loathing, abuse, and the threat of violence every day: I see you, I love you and I will do everything I can to change this world for the better.\"
