On the Independent Spirit Awards red carpet, "Euphoria" star Hunter Schafer discussed why she chose to speak out on social media after a U.S. passport agency recently changed her gender marker to male.

SANTA MONICA, Calif. (AP) — Hunter Schafer says “it’s important to just keep track of where things are in our country,” a day after the “Euphoria” star posted a video in which she revealed her new passport had been issued with a male gender marker.

Actor Hunter Schafer is speaking out after she says she had to get a passport that had the gender she was assigned at birth instead of the one she identifies with. It comes weeks after President Trump signed an executive order declaring America will only recognize male and female genders.
