Susan Sarandon couldn't be more proud of her son Miles who doesn't follow strict gender rules.
The actress is extremely proud of her son and his choice to "color outside the lines" when it comes to gender roles, according to People. As an LGBTQ advocate, she sees absolutely nothing wrong with his personal choices.
She recently told Oprah that "she's so excited these days by the fluidity of gender that's happening."
At the TrevorLIVE event the other night, which supports LGBTQ youth, the 68-year-old actress spoke with People about her children and their ability to see beyond gender stereotypes.
"My son Miles is a musician and a DJ and sometimes when his band performs they all wear dresses," she revealed. "And he has long hair."
When it comes to diversity, the "Thelma and Louise" star believes the more the better, according to Entertainment Tonight.
"I think the more crayons you have in your box to color outside the lines, the more exciting it is," she said.
They grew up in New York City and she believes this helped her children see the diversity among people and families.
"I wanted to raise my kids in New York because, as a privileged kid, I think you can become very isolated and at least if you're privileged, you should understand you're privileged, and not take it for granted," she said.
As someone who has been an advocate for the LGBTQ community for decades, she truly admires the people who have the courage to come out publicly. She also understands why organizations like The Trevor Project are now more important than ever before.
"As a mother, I know how difficult it is to survive the teenage years intact and the socialization process-if you step out of line, it's so difficult," she continued. "And there are so many kids these days who are questioning, gay or transgender, who have a very tough time and it could be very dangerous for them. I think it's really great that we are having all these conversations and getting kids to understand that there is somewhere we can go to talk it over."
