It seems like you're referring to a recent controversy involving Jordan Peterson, Elliot Page, and the Daily Mail.

For those who may not be aware, Jordan Peterson is a Canadian clinical psychologist and professor who has gained significant attention for his views on psychology, philosophy, and politics. Elliot Page, on the other hand, is a Canadian actor who has appeared in films like "Juno" and "Inception."

Recently, the Daily Mail, a British tabloid newspaper, published an article that sparked outrage and controversy. The article claimed that Elliot Page had "transitioned" to a woman, using a derogatory term to refer to transgender individuals. The article also included a photo of Elliot Page from his early days as a male actor, which many saw as a form of "outing" or "exposing" his gender identity.

Jordan Peterson, who has been vocal about his opposition to gender identity and transgender rights, responded to the article by saying that he was "not surprised" by the Daily Mail's reporting and that he believed the article was "a legitimate piece of journalism." He also claimed that he was "not opposed to transgender people" but rather opposed to the idea of "gender identity" and the notion that people can "choose" their gender.

Many people, including Elliot Page himself, have criticized Jordan Peterson's response, saying that it was insensitive and harmful to transgender individuals. Elliot Page took to social media to express his disappointment and frustration, saying that he was "disappointed, but not surprised" by Peterson's response.

The controversy has sparked a wider debate about gender identity, transgender rights, and the role of media in reporting on these issues. Many have called for greater sensitivity and respect when reporting on gender identity and have criticized the Daily Mail for its sensationalized and harmful reporting.
