Default Ezra Furman comes out as trans

https://pitchfork.com/news/ezra-furm...sgender-woman/

Not terribly shocking given her lyrical content and videos, but I knew there were a couple of fans of her albums (Scott, Ninastar) on here so I thought it was worth sharing even if she isn't (yet) a household name... her music's featured quite prominently on the Netflix show Sex Education and I'll post some songs below.

Quote:
Ezra Furman has announced that she identifies as a transgender woman in a post on her Instagram. The singer-songwriter also revealed in the note that she has been a mother for over two years. Read her announcement in full below.

“I wanted to share with everyone that I am a trans woman, and also that I am a mom and have been for a while now (like 2+ years),” Furman wrote, explaining that she previously identified as nonbinary. “I’ve come to terms with the fact that I am a woman, and yes for me it’s complex, but it’s complex to be any sort of woman. I am very proud to be a trans woman and to have come to know it and be able to say it. This has not been an easy journey.”

“I have not yet mentioned in public that I’m a parent because I have been afraid of being judged and grilled about it as if it’s anyone’s business other than mine and my family’s,” Furman continued. “But. I’m telling you I’m a mom now for a specific reason. Because one problem with being trans is that we have so few visions of what it can look like to have an adult life, to grow up and be happy and not die young. When our baby was born I had approximately zero examples that I had seen of trans women raising children. So here’s one for anyone who wants to see one. I’m a trans woman and a mom. This is possible.”

Ezra Furman released her most recent album, Twelve Nudes, in 2019.
