Trans roles are a small, small percentage. They should go to trans actors and actresses who actually live those experiences.

Cis roles are not under threat of being taken over by trans actors. Trans roles are already taken over by cis actors.

Cis people view trans experiences as tourism. Trans people live and die by this reality every day.
