Yeah, because a woman has never continued pretending to be a man in some situations while openly identifying as a woman in others for the sake of safety or convenience. So anyone spending any effort investigating that would be wasting their time.
Considering the date (23 years ago) and the fact that it's on wikipedia, I think if that were the case it would be written differently, then again no wikipedia page for either name so please do research and tell me if I'm wrong
Welcome to the closeted life, and yes it is hell, and yes it demands tremendous amounts of resilience, and even then you won't go unscathed because masking always leaves alienating scars on the mind.
So yeah, fuck fascism, fuck religion, fuck the straightarchy in general.

I'm not sure who Elvira is. Maybe this is why she didn't.

Who is Elvira?

An icon of her time OG. But the G stands for goth.

Cassandra Gay Peterson
Spouse Mark Pierson (m. 1981; div. 2003)
Partner Teresa Wierson (2002–present)
Are we sure her husband didn't transition?

I suppose div.2003 stands for divorce, plus the two timespans overlap, so it wouldn't make sense

Trying not to get into transgestigation territory, but her husband was significantly taller than current partner.
Sidenote: they are all very good looking people, I never imagined that Elvira is a redhead irl

This happened in 2021, btw. Unless we're talking about some character-coming-out instead of the actress.

Heck, I'm tempted to drop that in conversations nowadays despite never having been in the same room as Elvira.

Some of us like our privacy.
I know a Nazi blue check wouldn't know anything about that.
