A fan of series of all kinds, she likes to follow the daily lives of her favorite actors. She is also a fan of Queen Elizabeth II, Kate Middleton and still doesn’t understand what Prince Harry is doing with Meghan Markle.
At 41, Eva Son-Forget knows who she is. The one we previously called Joachim has decided to begin a transition. An approach that she agreed to reveal in an interview given to the media “Blick”.
Joachim Son-Forget is no longer… The ex-MP is now called Eva, the reaction of his 3 children mentioned
This is an announcement to which those who followed near or far Joachim Son-Forget perhaps didn’t expect. This Monday, November 18, the former MP announced his desire to change sex in an interview with Swiss media Blick. A transition initially started administratively. So don’t call him Joachim anymore but Eva : “It wasn’t easy to choose, but I like Eva, a reference to Eve, created from a rib of Adam. She immediately did something stupid.“
The transition began with physical changes before the change of sex on paper and change of name are not operated on:shaved hair, ear pendants, light makeup” describes the site which also publishes a photo of Eva. “This statutory change is very important to me. When your transition is recognized by others, it becomes reality. It is no longer an alcove secret.“
During her arrest last June in Paris (for refusing to comply, editor’s note), Eva Son-Forget had already expressed a “reflection on one’s sexual identity” evoking in passing the incomprehension of those around him regarding this decision and his desire to flee.
A transition for the buzz?
Mother of three children and married at the latest news, Eva Son-Forget spoke about the reaction of his offspring aged 17, 9 and 5 years old : “They had observed my progress, particularly in my clothing. They must have understood. But last Saturday, I warned the little ones so he could defend himself at school. I explained to them that it didn’t change anything for them. That it was simply a continuation of my usual behavior.“
Far from the escapades with which she made herself known in politics, Eva is not making her transition public with the sole aim of creating buzz: “It’s a process that involves my life, that exposes me and my children. I would not speak openly if it were not crucial for me, but especially for others, weaker than me, who cannot take on their lives as they dream of. It is a call for tolerance and freedom to choose one’s gender identity.“
