    I just want you to know that this video helped me feel better. I'm about to visit a gender therapist for the first time and I'm super nervous I'm 20 years old working for minimum wage for my family business and I'm scared that I'm somehow not good enough or not rich enough or not girly enough that the doctors won't want to work with me and i don't know what I'll do but... I'm getting in my own head. And this video made be feel better :)

    I'm confused , are you MTF trans? Have you not started transitioning yet? Are you ftm? Sorry, truly I am not trying to be rude and forgive me if I offend, is not my intention, but I am just so confused.

    • @AkikoMakiOfficial
      @AkikoMakiOfficial 8 лет назад

      Yes, I am MTF trans, It's okay to ask since you had seen my video and you asked me politely. I actually like to see that some people might be confused, even my supervisor at work had to ask me (If I was male or female.) when they had to fill some legal paper work for my job. I haven't transitioned yet (From the inside out yes, but altering my body from it's natural state, no.). I would love to do the hormones, have surgery to my face and a few other things but, along with it, comes a certain amount of risk. The big thing I think about most, are the hormones, what are the long term effects, will I die much sooner than I have to, no one knows for sure because there hasn't been a research study done on this stuff. On the other hand, am I truly living life (Having someone in my life, living as me every day and feeling great about it in a way that I can't completely understand right now.)? It has been almost a year since I made this vlog and I have arrived at the consensus that I may have to transition to finally feel what it is like, to be like everybody else. I. work at night so it is a difficult for me to commit to seeing a therapist during the day but, when I'm less busy I will have to find a way. A long time ago when I was a part time employee at my company, I thought it would better to establish myself as a full time employee before transitioning both for financial reasons and to avoid any discrimination that would keep me from getting the full time position that I need. I was wrong, my first job opportunity was denied and I didn't get to be full time but, my Union backed me up and filed the necessary paperwork so that I may get another opportunity within a reasonable amount of time, so, here I am. Trans people are like everybody else and I don't think a transition would solve all my problems but, it certainly would take a lot of things off my mind and I think it would be easier for me to live with myself rather than wondering "What would it be like if I did it?". Apart from the risks involved, a chance at being more at peace with my body may be well worth it, it just seems to be the right thing to do.

    Hello my friend, it is so nice to see you out here again! ( .^_^. ) J'tai veux ( I see you too!) I love that handle name. Actually I haven't used my new computer much yet, but, it can do some very good things and do them well. I so desperately need to use it to edit my videos, You Tube has changed so much since I first came out here, besides.......sitting in front of a camera all in one take, can be limiting.......THERE IS A WHOLE OTHER WORLD OUT THERE TO CAPTURE OTHER THAN THE FOUR WALLS AROUND ME! I have been on tough times lately and hopefully after next weekend, my life will be more stable to do other more luxurious things, like learning to use the software on my machine. I work at night, it is difficult to get to the apple store on time and sometimes I have too many other things that need to get done that are more important. The only reason I am responding to this comment is because today is an off day for me when I am in the unfortunate situation to be up when I am supposed sleeping. I am using my new computer right now here at the library for the first time, and finally I am able to access my account more thoroughly than otherwise through my smart phone. I have been looking to see who has subscribed to me and looking at any comments I may have missed out on. It is so nice to see you again, I am so happy to see a few familiar faces out here, it makes me feel less ugly. ( .^_^ )

  • @stephaniepinkley2244
    @stephaniepinkley2244 10 лет назад

    One inch is nothing to get furious about...you need to specify what "a little bit" is. A little bit don't mean a little bit to you like it means a little bit so some other people. Also...in two months or less you will regain that inch of hair so calm it down :D lol

    • @stephaniepinkley2244
      @stephaniepinkley2244 10 лет назад

      Not trying to be insensitive at all so I do apologize for that, I can relate to getting too much hair cut off. It has happened to me a few times. I have come to find that you really do need to be quite specific with the exact amount. Maybe next time say you want a very very very very light dusting on the ends and go as far as saying you think one inch is way more than a dusting. You want more like a quarter of an inch or less it sounds like.

    hey can u please answer this if u do remember people in ww2 do u know someone that was a prisoner of war by japan and helped build the Burma railway called Henry Charles Thompson :) be of relaly big help thanks

    • @AkikoMakiOfficial
      @AkikoMakiOfficial 9 лет назад

      I have been looking for you since I got back out here on You Tube. I am sorry to reply so late. I have not been able to access all parts of my account on You Tube through my smart phone, and this is the first time that I log onto my account at the library, please accept my sincere apology. I am sorry, but I do not recall a Mr. Thompson, I have heard of the Burma railway but, it is not part of my experience at the time. I spent a lot of time in China and some time in Korea. I did not come into contact with many western people, they were rare in my world. Please..........while I have your attention, I would like to extend my deepest sincere apologies to those who have passed at the hands of people like me. The Burma railway was almost literally founded on the bones of those prisoners who built it. I am not proud to have been a part of World War II. If Mr. Thompson survived that is a good thing, but, you still seem to be looking for him, it is likely that he has passed on like all the others. Back then, we had a way of treating our prisoners and it was anything but good and hospitable. WWII forced our military to take on desperate measures and any prisoners that we had, were very low on the list of people we cared about. It was always looked upon as a shameful thing to allow oneself to be taken prisoner, as a result many Japanese would kill themselves before being taken captive by outside military forces. The attack on Iwa Jima is a perfect example of this. If Mr. Thompson passed while building the railway, it was probably a good thing, I am sorry, but, it is the truth, because the place he would have reached on the other side would have been much nicer. You have to understand, WWII was hell on earth, any other place no matter which side you were on, was a bad place to be, being somewhere else but here, was always the better option. I hope that the worst of human history has passed, I could not go back to do the things I did back then, it would literally tear the humanity from my being, and all that would be left is a shell of what I used to be.

    Same as me bro. I have long hair like Neck Length almost shoulder for my back I show the barber the hairstyle i wanted it's almost the same as my old hairstyle only shorter by a inch and more trimmed and when the haircut was over i was in total shock that i didn't even talked. I was like "heres the 12 dollar thank you" and went home as fast as i could. I getting over the shortness because WHAT CAN U DO? but what make me upset is MY HAIR TO THE BOOK IS WAAAAAAAAAAY OFF. He cut off about 3-4inch

  • @AkikoMakiOfficial
    @AkikoMakiOfficial 11 лет назад

    I'm not sure what your hair type is. My best advice to you is to find a way to keep your hair from tangling, if it does not tangle it will be less likely to break and develop split ends. I used to use a product called "Ion lusterizing cream" (Look it up.) as a result, I only needed to go to the salon for a cut twice a year. "Biotin" is a supplement you can take to help make your hair grow longer (look up "the side effects of biotin" out here first, I take it and it helps my hair grow longer.

  • @AkikoMakiOfficial
    @AkikoMakiOfficial 11 лет назад

    I completely understand your predicament and I will have to make video of this sometime. It is all about how you care for your hair and keeping the ends from splitting, this is why they keep cutting it short. Hair professionals are trying to keep the split ends from getting worse. Some hair products and maybe most of them can damage your hair. I will have to make a video sometime to teach people what I know so far. An experienced salon person would be your best reference.

  • @Kelly14UK
    @Kelly14UK 11 лет назад

    This is how I cope with it. Time and again : looking into that mirror thinking " how the HELL did I end up here again... ". It truly depresses me, and just makes me angry when barbers or hairdressers JUST DONT LISTEN or go overboard, especially when they know what I HATE ( short fringe, too short up top. Actually detest it. Feel false. It isn't me ). PS I wasn't annoyed at you, but myself for continually making these mistakes.

  • @AkikoMakiOfficial
    @AkikoMakiOfficial 11 лет назад

    I will have to take your advice into consideration. Managing my anger and frustration on this topic will take a very very huge measure of dicipline from me, but, I do agree that when I'm not angry, everything does get better, and yes, my hair will get longer. It is not cancer, I guess my anger truly comes from having short hair for too many years, I simply cannot have it anymore, this is my life commitment. I need the things that make me happy. Thank you so much for your comment. ( .^_^ )

  • @AkikoMakiOfficial
    @AkikoMakiOfficial 11 лет назад

    Hey there Mark-san. It is almost May 2013. My hair is a bit longer now ( I love it! ) (.^_^ ) and now I have a very talented salon guy to help me out with things. Long hair is a funny thing to have, you must know how to care for it before it can grow long and healthy( I'm still learning,........everything must come in due time.). It is so nice to finally hear from you! I will be back to blog more......... business in my world comes first before I can play out here. ROCK on my friend! ( .^_^. )

  • @Kelly14UK
    @Kelly14UK 11 лет назад

    Count 20 days, or 3 weeks. Even take sea kelp, as it gives 10 days' growth for 7 ( on me anyway ) . Once initial annoyance or anger wears off, hair gets longer as you get used to it. As long as the layering is done according to your head shape, and type of hair, it'll be okay in 3 weeks. It's not cancer.

    Thank you babe. ( .^_^. ) A lot of people here in the states would make the mistake to call them umbrellas, but actually they are called parasols. Usually a parasol is used in Japan to protect one's skin from the sun. Parasols can also be used as decorative art pieces. I like them because they look beautiful and I usually carry one with me when I go to Boston Pride every year so that I can keep myself out of the sun. Love the skin you are in, it is a good thing.

    @MarieWisniak It is a pleasure to make you acquaintance, I have been hearing about you for some time now. I am fine if I can keep things in perspective and somewhat separate from this life. I have not found my wife and I have no intentions of finding her. I think it is important to remember that some things are history for a reason but, still there are a few things from then that I need, that give me comfort in my current time and place here in the western world.

  • @AkikoMakiOfficial
    @AkikoMakiOfficial 12 лет назад

    I have not started transitioning. Yes, I do have a complex self image. I was born into a guy's body, if I was born into a woman's body I may not have self image issues. I still like women, so maybe my guy body is fine, but, it is not an image that pleases me all the time. Understanding me is a bit of a complex thing. I made this video to throw a lot of things out here for the others to see, so that they can be offered an example of some types of things to think about before transitioning.

  • @Death2Evil
    @Death2Evil 12 лет назад

    Wait... So you started transitioning, but now you are detransitioning? It sounds like you have a complex self-image, because the only time I'm fine looking like a guy is when I'm alone in my room. If I get even the slightest doubt in who I am or what I am, then all I have to do is think back to the days of ye ol' sex drive & shaving cuts. O.o

    @lexadlanod When people pass on, the body dies but the soul moves on. I have the same soul from when I was first created. It was originally planned that I should not be here. What I remember of World War II is there for a reason in hopes that that I may influence the people of this time for the greater good of humanity. Separating me from war is like taking all the green M&M's out of a bowl the size of New York City, it is almost impossible, but talking about it gives me peace .---スコットマキ
