Robin Torkar has come out as a trans-woman on Twitter (Robin Torkar)
Robin Torkar, a popular Swedish streamer best-known to gamers as Pixlpit or Betapixel, has proudly come out as a trans woman.
Making the announcement on Twitter on Saturday (20 February), Torkar said he will continue using he/him pronouns going forward but clarified he has received an official diagnosis of gender dysphoria.
He explained that his coming out was not a political statement, making it clear that the topic of rights and equality has always, unlike gender, been a binary fact.
“There’s right and there’s wrong,” he explained. “People being offered the same rights regardless of sex, gender, ethnicity, religion, etc, is to me a no-brainer. It should be obvious.
