. In an October 2017 interview with The Sunday Times, Smith said,"I don't know what the title would be, but I feel just as much woman as I am man."
In his conversation with Jamil, Smith said he came out as gay when he was 10 and stopped wearing male clothing when he was 16, adding that he would wear fur and makeup to school. “I've always been very free in terms of thinking about my sexuality, so I've just tried to change that into my thoughts on gender as well,” he explained.During his"I Weigh Interviews" appearance, Smith also discussed his ongoing body-image struggles. Though he said he's achieved greater self-acceptance over the years, he said he has “always had a war between my body and my mind.
Lee Airton, an assistant professor of gender and sexuality studies at Queen’s University and author of the book,” told NBC News that it’s “wonderful that folks in the public life can come out as they are.” However, Airton stressed that nonbinary people have always existed. “There are nonbinary people in all walks of life, in every position you can think of,” Airton said. “People might feel being nonbinary is a new thing, but it’s a re-emergence.”
