No. Just. No.

Do we really want to be further sensationalized or singled out?   What about FTM actors?  Oh, wait...

Actresses are actresses, Hollywood.  Could you imagine if someone proposed separate awards for actresses of different races, ages, sexualities, nationalities or religions?  Fart, meet spacesuit...

I still think having separate awards for actor/actress is silly.   A great performance is just that.

No. Just. No.
