Trans Model Makes Waves In Japan

A recent Toyota commercial has caused a massive backlash by transphobic and homophobic people in Japan, with the use of an androgynous transgender model to promote the 2013 Toyota Auris (Corolla).

What looks like a female model is shown strutting towards the car, shedding clothes along the way, the model reaches the car in just bikini bottom. The Ukrainian model – known as Stav Strashko – then turns around, revealing a male chest.

Negative backlash has forced Toyota to remove the option to comment on the Youtube video.

The team at OUTinPerth thinks that challenging gender stereotypes and forward thinking from Toyota is great, what do you think?
