"I'm happy I'm making it big time now and it's always a great pleasure to work with Diesel," said Strashko, "which has broken stigmas about gender and beauty in its campaign in recent years, and I'm proud that I have the opportunity to be part of this movement that is bringing change to the world and is opening people's eyes to a truth one cannot ignore – there is no single type of beauty or conventional gender and we need to abandon this fixation."
