Emma further stated that in order to foster a greater sense of urgency regarding the subject, it was necessary to increase the representation of women in entertainment industry positions.
They inquired, “Is it necessary to specify whether you are being nominated for a male or female role when it comes to categories?”
The conversation should focus on the lack of representation in the material itself, in the content that we are viewing for non-binary,
queer, and transgender individuals. While it is permissible to discuss awards and their representation, I believe that this will produce significant change.
I believe that there will be a greater sense of urgency to resolve these concerns when those roles become more prevalent, which will result in a greater number of individuals and actors portraying them.
Emma has publicly identified as non-binary since 2021 and has shared their journey with their gender identity on social media.
