True parity is when we can have a trans lead who is messy, complicated and unafraid of the dark. It's an opportunity that cis, straight, white, male characters are afforded without question.
"Many of the issues in Shira's life are pulled from my own autobiography: financial distress, co-dependence, substance abuse and historical trauma," Levinson says."She became a place for me to process all of that grief outside the bounds of a script. These issues are rampant within the TGNC [trans and gender nonconforming] community and yet they haven't been significantly addressed in entertainment.
