New York Magazine is receiving a lot of flak after its first-ever male style issue featured a transgender actor.
Despite decades of covering men’s fashion, the magazine has never fully devoted an issue to the subject. And some critics argue that they still haven’t done so, after putting Elliot Page on the cover.
Look:
Transgender actor Elliot Page is one of New York Magazine’s cover stars for its first-ever issue dedicated to men’s style.
The magazine says it has covered men’s fashion for decades, from a 1971 story asking whether men would wear high heels to a 1996 profile of male… pic.twitter.com/Hjbz2tos5T

As for fashion, there doesn’t really seem to be much. Page can be seen with a bare torso and something resembling pajama bottoms in the sauna-themed photoshoot.

X users had a lot to say about the magazine’s interesting take on “men’s fashion”:
I did not give consent to see Elliot Page’s surgically altered nipples. This is rape. https://t.co/H3afB4JmFB

History is going to look back on this time and condemn EVERYONE.
Drugged and mutilated mentally ill women plastered across magazine covers for profit while society applauded.

This is a woman pretending to be a man. Instead of giving her the necessary care to treat her gender dysphoria, they mutilated her. They should be held responsible. https://t.co/1g7lp6m9ji

There’s a war on masculinity in this country. It’s been called toxic for years. The only way to get a magazine cover if you’re a straight white man is if you’re really a biological woman. https://t.co/SD82lzo1C6

We have become a deeply unserious culture lolololol a woman with her tits cut off on a Men’s Style Issue. Just look at it. It’s disgusting. It’s fucking grotesque. And yet an entire ecosystem of very serious people has to pretend this is brave or interesting or profound instead… https://t.co/XFj3qkf7FS

Honestly, in time we’ll look back on this in the same way people look back on Christians being used as living candles in the gardens of Nero’s palace and women and children being devoured by lions and tigers in the Coliseum. https://t.co/tOYx39llMp
