Hunter Schafer was born male, but as he grew up, he came to identify as transgender with the pronoun She and Her.<\/strong><\/p>\n

At age three, Hunter was already showing the signs that she was trapped in the wrong body. By the time she got to the seventh grade, the youngster made bold to confide in her parents, Mac and Katy Schafer, who became a pillar of support on her transition journey. At the age of 18, she underwent a gender transformation surgery and was later placed on hormone therapy to complete the process. Today, the model-turned-actress is recognized in the LGBTQ community as an activist.<\/p>\n

Hunter Schafer Was Assigned The Male Gender at Birth<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Born on the 31st of December 1998, Hunter Schafer was assigned the male gender at birth. Immediately after birth, the Trenton, New Jersey-born model and actress was listed as male on his birth certificate.<\/p>\n

However, by the time Hunter clocked two, her parents began to realize that their baby boy identified less with males and more with the female gender. At that age, she preferred to go for Catwoman and Hawkgirl, even when she had the choice of going with male superheroes in films and comics.<\/p>\n

At age three, her mum and dad started noticing that she would want to go to school in a pink dress while fellow boys preferred fireman coats; at that point, they just concluded that the situation was abnormal.<\/p>\n
