I'm enjoying this much more than first season. Clearly higher budget and some better writing.

Is this better writing? Most of this season was just in your face virtue signaling and a repetition of ideas. Even the budget doesn't show that much. Some of the scenes are just terribly cut like the Cold War in the beginning or the first meeting between Allison and Luther (people just disappear from the background). It's a shame because the family moments were pretty good.

Yeah but they still need to at least look somewhat convincing that's just how it is.
I mean obviously he can continue if he is ok with continuing to still play female roles, hormone therapy or more would definitely complicate things a lot in this regard.
Again his career is pretty much over if he decides to transition or wants to play only male roles from now on or do you see anyone from this list regularly or even just know them at all:

She/he was terrible last season, I won't miss the character if she's written out.

These are not famous actors like he is.

"a phenomenon."

Yeah true but still there is a reason why there are so few trans actors famous or not i'm not a fan of it either but i don't think he can change that.

But... he did change it just now.  He is now considered a famous trans actor. edit: I thought you wrote "no famous tans actors", but now I see you wrote "so few" instead. Maybe I misread it.
Anyway, there's always work to be done behind the camera, producing/directing. He has some such credits already.

The Umbrella Academy production is pretty PC. They written Vanya around Elliot Page in season 2 not the otherway, this is why her plot was abuse, lesbian heavy. His/her character even wore his/her private clothes so I think they will write the change into the plot somehow.
 Spoiler: | At the end of S2 they meet alternative Academy so Vanya will be male there. Done. |

We have here a LGBTQ+ activist that is a dude who identifies itself as a woman and have a girlfriend that is a lesbian. So everything is clear and ok.

He is playing a female character perfectly while being male, such a great actor!

They better change the character into a correct gender (if they haven't already.).
We had actors get ass blasted for playing different genders or even attempt to play trans.
Its a good outcome for Elliot.
We will see if its a good outcome for the industry.
But at least now he can take on the role that scarlet Johansson got cancelled for when she wanted to play that ftm bank robber.
