Pedro Pascal’s latest show of support for the trans community has solidified his title as Trans Rights King.
Known for being an ally for years, Pascal recently appeared as a guest on a live show wearing a shirt purchased from the Trans Justice Funding Project. Below, we’ll discuss why his continued advocacy for the group matters.
Pedro Pascal Wore An Unreleased ‘Pippa Garner’ Shirt on Jimmy Kimmel Live In Support Of The Trans Community
Pedro Pascal is being called bold for wearing a T-shirt that supports trans individuals during his guest appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live on Monday.
The black shirt with white text that reads “Adult Content” was designed by trans artist Pippa Garner, who passed away in December.
Pascal, who recently drew attention for calling out transphobes on his Instagram, wore the limited-edition shirt—never produced before—sold from her estate through the Mother, Daughter, Holy Spirit fundraiser.
The fundraiser was organized by designers and artists in New York to raise money for the Trans Justice Funding Project, a group created for and by trans people in the United States and publicly supported by Pascal and several other celebrities.
The Last of Us actor has been open about his support for the gender-diverse community and has also stood by his sister, Lux, who came out as a trans woman in 2021.
Lux has also collaborated with Mother, Daughter, Holy Spirit, offering a printed white shirt featuring her photo. Other notable figures who have contributed to the fundraiser include Chloë Sevigny, Aimee Lou Wood, and Troye Sivan.
Why Pedro Pascal’s Support For The Group Matters
Pedro Pascal may have touched on several topics during his appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live that piqued his followers’ interest, such as the upcoming The Last of Us sequel, his surprising coffee order, and rumors linking him to Jennifer Aniston.
However, the actor wearing the “Adult Content” shirt resonated with trans individuals in the U.S., and his fans say they could not love him more for it.
A fan on Reddit praised the actor’s commitment to his stance, saying:
“He's doing promo for potentially the biggest TV show of the year and using that spotlight for this? That's allyship.”
Many admire Pascal for standing with the trans community during a time when former U.S. President Donald Trump declared that the country would only recognize two genders, male and female, completely disregarding trans people.
Meanwhile, Euphoria actress Hunter Schafer, a trans woman, recently had what she called a “reality check” after her gender marker on her passport was changed to “male” due to a government order, as she revealed on her TikTok story.
Pascal, using his platform to support trans activism, is not only showing support for his sister but also bringing attention to the challenges faced by trans individuals under the country’s recent policies.
