It has taken years for my mother to finally try and refer to me as her daughter. After a major breakdown she finally realized how important it was for me to be referred to as she. It is little affirming comments like that, that can make or break a trans person.

In that scene, Dominique showed through the character that she was playing and she injected real emotion into the dialogue. You really felt Elektra’s pain because her actress had experienced either the same or a similar situation in her real past. The immeasurable amount of respect that I have for this beautiful tower of a woman is remarkable.

Even though I am not trans..whatever Dominique said translated to me. Her hardships, acceptance and truly being herself gave me power. She’s a force to be reckoned with 🌟

Dominique is spectacular. She is able to make Elektra all things..stunning, caring, terrifying, loving. Her talent as an actor is mesmerizing. Like the entire Pose cast, it's impossible to take your eyes off her while on screen. The documentary is fantastic, revealing the woman behind the character. Strength, heart, bravery, true-to-self. She was born to play Elektra. Heartbreaking that this will be the last season of Pose, but there will be so much more for Dominique ahead!

She is gorgeous. I can´t believe she has never acted before! Elektra is such a complex character, season 2 is amazing. This woman should do fashion shows, campaigns, cosmetics campaings. She exhudes style. Strength, a model for trans women and for women alike, cause she is feminine, strong, tough, intelligent, smart, resilient, beautiful, qualities that anyone who identifies with the feminine cherish. Dominique is star quality human being! Love her!

Dominique is shedding light for lots of ignorant folk... especially those in the Caribbean!! Fighting for equality, and a non judge-mental mindset... Religion- a traditional crutch... I’m so glad that I realized that being spiritual, feeling and being close with God; your personal relationship is what’s important!!! Not religion, not the show, hypocrisy, judgement! I can relate... being brought up in the “church”... From one West Indian to the next; Dominique you are Magic 🪄 I commend you for rising like the Phoenix that you are!!! 💋

She's beautiful inside and out. She's so strong having gone through the things she has and remaining the beautiful person she is, working so hard to help others. I'm glad her and her mother could get to a point of telling each other they love each other, hugging, spending holidays together. It's so very sad that some people don't get that even after so much time. No one should suffer like she has suffered.

Her character in Pose reflects so much of her real life it makes me appreciate Elektra Abundance even more, especially when Electra was at her lowest in season 1. We love you Dominique
