Well, you've just demonstrated that you don't understand why trans roles should only be played by trans people.

No, I'm agreeing that trans roles should be played by trans actors. I do not, however, agree that "so the same should be true of cisgender parts." Vanya may be a cis character for all that we know (comics never address it), but I see absolutely no reason the part couldn't be played by a trans actor if the actor is comfortable doing so.

I wanted to post in disagreement with AYRT, but I don't have the energy tonight to be properly articulate on this subject.

Izzard is also nonbinary, and is wrapping up production on a show where he (Izzard just clarified that contextual pronouns work) is in "boy mode."

And Hewson also has been taking female roles. (Although I strongly suspect that Santa Clarita Diet was building up to a coming out episode for Abby. They kind of laid down the bones of an adolescent love triangle in Season 3.)

Also Ezra Miller and Ruby Rose.

Stupid question, is non-binary different to trans?

I ask because I wasn't really aware Ezra Miller & Ruby Rose identified as non-binary, I just thought they were into 'gender as role play' (sorry, I don't what the term would be, I would have said transvestism but that seems wrong).

I thought Izzard came out as a transwoman post-production?

“As I’m playing a male role, I suggested people should go back to calling me he and him for this, and what the world seems to have said to me is you can change your pronouns but you can’t use he and him as well. You’ve just got to be she and her from now on because we’ve only got so much time on our hands, thank you very much.” How does she feel about that? She beams. “Great. I’ve been promoted to she, and it’s a great honour.”

+1, Eliot should continue playing Vanya if he wants. Trans characters being played by trans actors is a different argument entirely, just like any minority/persecuted group getting to make their own stories.
