Actress instead of Actor

  • March 21, 2022, 5:41pm

I personally don't like the change and find it awkward and confusing! I just saw a headline that said, "This Actor Rejected Matthew McConaughey On The Set Of 'Dazed And Confused". My first thought was he must be gay or bisexual. Then I read the article and the person he was rejected by was female! How much clearer it would have been if the said actress instead!
