http://www.xtra.ca/public/National/Lana_Wachowski_on_coming_out_as_trans-12511.aspxLana Wachowski, who is in town attending the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF), has spoken for the first time about why she decided to go public in a recent New Yorker article about her journey as a trans person.
"I did feel some responsibility to the GLBT people and a lot of people had been asking me to be more public but we love anonymity, we love our privacy," says Wachowski. "We don't really think celebrity does much to improve your life.
"We actually think it worsens you life. So, it was a big decision."
