That video was honestly a defining moment for the closeted and very confused high school me. I know it's a bit messy with stereotypes and masculinity etc etc, but it also really helped show me that gay gays can look like and be anyone. Especially being from a rural southern town, it was really significant in me accepting myself and eventually coming out.
I feel the exact same way 💛
Same
Ditto bro
Haha 😂 I was gonna right the same comment but northern Queensland’s
Where can I see that video when he is asking that question?
Videos from 10 years ago don't have to represent who you are today, that the whole point of growing as a person. We were all young and cringy lol. No need to delete or private any videos in my opinion.
Exactly. That's what other youtubers eg: emma chamberlain did too. Instead of deleting them show other people who you've become.
I like to see where people have been, even if it's not their finest. See the growth.
If only the internet shared these feelings. If they did cancel culture would not exist as the phenomenon that it’s grown to be.
exactly. we all would cringe if every moment was documented as your generation likes to do.. who the F cares ?!,, just live xoxo
I definitely remember watching this 10 years ago when I was first trying to come to terms with my sexuality. U are definitely an OG in the generation of kids who found out there was other people just like them by watching RUclips. U helped a whole generation of us small town southern gays.
Og
I actually used the asking guys if I'm gay video for a case study in an essay I wrote when I first started studying media before University! I am now a masters student writing a dissertation focusing once again on LGBTQ identity so thank you for being a part of the journey! :)
Even if you feel like this isn’t a good representation of the person you are today, this kind of videos will remain as a main memory for the young gay I was back in the closeting days. And it was so new to openly speak about sexuality on a big platform. So You should be proud of them videos because they made me (and probably others) feel like I was not the only one. Life saving
For what it’s worth I don’t think you were cringy. I have always thought you were an awesome person from your videos. Upbeat energy, friendly, and just someone who had such a good outlook on life.
Hi Mark! I’m following your channel since this video was posted, I love you so much! And you gave me the strength I needed to came out with my parents. I love you so much!!! SENDING YOU HUGS FROM COLOMBIA!
OMG! I followed you since you uploaded that vid. I'm a gay dude from Argentina and you have no idea how much this helped me!. I can't believe it! Thank you Mark!
I remember watching this when I was 17. I can not believe it has been 10 years already 🤯
I know, right? I was 17, too. Time flies! Cheers! 👍🏻😊
Same exactly! 10 years of following. We should make a T-shirt aha! And the best part is I don't regret any second of my life spent on Mark's channel ❤️
Same ❤️
Same here😳
I just left my high school 10yrs ago🤣can’t believe it’s been 10yrs
Don’t unlist them! These are iconic core memories 😅
I was honestly kinda sad when u deleted the original video. I really loved it...
A lot has changed in 10 years, but we can always count on your hairstyle to stay the same 😄
We love you Mark ❤🧡💛💚💙💜
Love seeing this again Mark. I really love the positivity you have and had. It was the reason I started following you. Can’t believe it was so long ago.
“Everyday is a great day” really saved me from depression back then. Thanks for being there so long.
“Live ya, See ya, bye”.
Omg 10 YEARS!? We practically have grown up together lol Baby gays no more.
13 yrs old when I found his channel now I’m 23 😩😩
I was bummed to see that you were removing your videos. I understand that they don't represent 'you today', but they do represent your journey.
However, those videos ALSO represent parts of the journey of many of your listeners. I am included in this group. You were one of the RUclipsrs that were integral with accepting myself in my 30s as I had just come out at 32 and was starting to navigating a new way of living and wondering WTF to do, how to act, and how to love myself.
Your videos entertained me a lot, but they also made me feel hope, to feel like I deserved to be happy, like it was ok to actually find ME.
You said it yourself Mark, one of your greatest strengths is sharing good vibes. That quality is priceless. And you have succeeded.
I remember seeing this years ago. I loved it. Still do. You've grown yeah, we all grow. I mean your choice to privatize or take down some of your vids, but they help so many people see the journey. You should definitely not feel awkward about this video. It meant a lot to me at the time. I've always loved your vids. Enjoy the Journey right!?
Mark! That is when I subscribed. You hooked me with that video. Been watching ever since. Still LOVE YOU 😍 L
I’m 21 now happy out and proud but I don’t know what I would’ve done without you when I was a lost young teen
I remember this and I kind of thought it was like rapid fire coming out practice.
It does get easier to come out if you practice and do it a lot.
There was not as much acceptance then, so this was kind of brave, Mark. 🏳️🌈 ❤️
That video was my life back in the day. It meant so much to watch that and to see people not react negatively. Gave me hope for when i eventually came out myself. 🥺🙌
I’m pretty sure this is the very first video of yours that I saw. You do send a lot of good vibes!
I am thankful for that video bc I needed it at the time. Yes it might be a little cringy for you now looking back at it. But it was perfect for where I was at in my life. It helped expose me to a ((gay)) creative who I felt I related to, and it has been wonderful seeing you grow and be shaped into who you are now. For what it's worth, I enjoyed your old videos still because they reminded me of the path I have taken to get where I am today. And they taught me that I can create my own path in life and do what I truly love.
I appreciate you Mark. Keep doing the good things you do.
This channel and this was the video are what helped me finally come out to myself and my family in 2015. I have tears in my eyes watching it again. Thanks for all the honesty all these years.
i watched that video when i was 13 and it was such an important thing for my coming out, it really meant a lot to me :) kisses from brazil
We still love you the same as we did when we first subscribed mark! Always loved ur content
Thought it was an interesting experiment 10 years ago … still do! Cheers for the journey Mark from Mark in 🇨🇦
Markie.... You're too hard on yourself. I saw that vid when you originally posted it. I enjoyed it then as I enjoyed it now. You're good energy. Embrace it. I loved the vid you did which included a poem about a "crooked tree". Just beautiful.
The original video, stereotypes and all, really helped me in my journey with my sexuality. Seeing a guy about my age be openly gay and being ok with letting strangers know, gave me the courage to also be open about my sexuality to family, friends and strangers. Thank you Mark. ❤🏳🌈
Daaaamn! That's the very first video I saw of you almost ten years ago! Can't believe it's been that long 😱 Honestly, you have grown for sure, but your core is still the same goof ball and kind heart we all love 💕
That video was suggested to me all those years ago. That video was my introduction to Mark. It’s been amazing to watch your journey through life. Keep up the great work man!
Mark, your reaction @8:14 is precious. I loved your vid back then and love your reaction to the vid even more. You should definitely do more of these. I think it is important to reflect on how one has grown as an individual.
Oh my goodness! Almost 10 years ago?! 😳
I can still remember watching it.
On the one hand I understand why you don't like your old appearance (don't know a better word right now) but on the other hand I see just a younger still cool and sympathetic guy whom I would still have liked to have met personally and had as a friend.
Keep on going like you always do.
Love you and your vids. ♥
@MarkE Miller, 8:38, don’t hate yourself Mark! I’ve been watching your videos for 7 years now. You’re such a bright light in this hectic world. You make people smile and relax! Be easier on yourself man!
That video was the video that brought me to your channel back in 2013 and have been following ever since.
Original video is BRILLIANT AND HELPFUL AND SAVES LIVES!!
I remember when I first saw it and how moved I was. Now that I think @ it, have never seen one like it
since!! It’s a CLASSIC!!! Will help; Has helped; Does help!!
In the canon of noteworthy and helpful and eye opening lgbtq+ youtubes
Enjoyed the sound track to the family off site visit footage very much-- peaceful time for the family, peaceful music. Praise to the editor(s).
This was the first video I ever watched on your channel! It was about a year after you posted it. I was going through my own journey and have been watching ever since. You’ve come a long way and watching you become more comfortable with who you are has helped me along in my own life. Thank you!
I totally remember watching this video when it came out. How crazy that it’s been so much time. It’s cool to see a whole online community growing up together.
Stumbled back on this video today, Mark. I saw both this video and the previous one release (which probably dates me a little, but whatever). It has been so awesome to see you grow as a professional and as a human over the past 12-13 years (I actually remember you Pre-RUclips from ISU). Hope you're doing well, my guy!
I loved it when i saw it 10 years ago, and love it even more now. Not at all cringey. It was sweet, funny & adorable.
Woow This video just made me realize that I've been following for over 10 years now and just as you said, you've been spreading positivity on your channel and it makes my heart warm to see how much you and me, as a part of your community have grown. Your videos at the time made me feel more comfortable with my sexuality and today I'm proudly a flaming homosexual!
♥♥♥
This video helped me come out!
I remember watching this video wen I was in the closet, struggling with depression and anxiety 😥 THANK YOU MARK 4 🙏🏾
I have been with you for 10 years. Honestly, one of my longest relationships...lol. ❤️❤️❤️
I love that you can say that your essence has not changed in 10 years! Probably means you have been living authentically, that to me is worth celebrating
Watched that video when it came out and I think maybe it was the algorithm, but it was one of the first things that brought me to your channel and your story. Even if it was a little cheesy at the time, it helped build this amazing community of people and brighten lives through your outlook and optimism during the good times and strength through the challenging times. Genuinely I tell myself every day it’s gonna be a great day because every day is a great day. Keep it up, Mark!
So crazy! I seriously watched both videos. Crazy to realize I have followed you for so long!
Reacting to the video that helped me come out back in the day! You helped me a lot over the years Mark despite not even knowing me. At that time, you showed me that gay people like myself came in all sorts of forms. I was so scared of being put into a stereotype being a small town boy with not much experience to go by. Thank you so much for all that you have done Mark❣️ I wish I could thank you in person. But regardless, I really appreciate you and everything you do! 🏳️🌈💪 I hope life is treating you well these days!! Keep being the light that you are. The world needs your smile! 😁
That video is legendaryyyy and every little bit of it 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Hi Mark. I remember stumbling upon this video literally over 9 years ago when I was a wee 24 year old lad. I'm about to turn 34 next month and I've admired your content and your growth throughout the years. I hope that in the next ten years you continue to grow and that you find the happiness that you deserve. Not that you aren't a happy person now, but I'm sure there's more of it out there waiting for you. Take care, Mark.
For me back then, that video was important too. I was doing kind of the same, running around and enjoying that people were surprised I’m gay^^
Thank you, Marke. A hug from Vienna, Austria
Loved your commentary to this, Mark - cool to see how personal growth translates into RUclips growth. Keep spreading good vibes!!
I remember watching this video! You can definitely see how far you've come and grown since then. You are one of my favorite RUclipsrs. It was nice to see you reacting to an old video.
Still watching 10 Years later! ❤❤ thank you for your videos they helped a lot and gave a little bit of hope and something to look forward to!
Thanks Mark! Not cheesy at all. I remember first watching your videos way back then when I was in high school as a closeted gay. It for made me felt like that I was not alone. It turned my life around...Keep doing what you're doing!
I can't believe its been 10 years! I remember when you posted this, I love you!
This video brings back a lot ! Of memories of me as a closeted gay back then. Miss these moments Mark ! 🫶🏻
I paint.... And I could look back at my earlier attempts at composition or some aspect of my work and be hyper critical or... Choose to look at each piece or effort as a stepping stone towards the work I am doing now. It takes courage to put ourselves out there and risk as we share our work. I wonder what you will create in the months and years to come.
This is actually the first time I've seen this video lol though it's wholesome throughout with people having good answers and accepting you as well as having a good moral at the end so I say this video actually aged well. Regardless, I'm in agreement with other comments that there is no need to delete or private your old videos as I say it'll be good to see how much you have grown as part of your journey even if you are not perfect which makes us human that we can only accept but also for those who have looked up to you for the past years including myself as one of my earliest LGBTQ RUclipsr. Also, you may see yourself as cringy in this video but I wouldn't say so at all with you being the same genuine person I've always been watching.
hope you're able to keep some of those videos up from before--it's all a part of the journey. and big hugs to you for sharing your story on RUclips, Mark! wishin' the best.
This was your first video that I watched, and I'm still here. Loved you then; love you now. XOXO
Watched this a decade ago. An iconic YT video. Thanks for the past, but looking forward to where you're going.
I absolutely loved that video. That is the very first video I seen of yours and I instantly had to subscribe and have loved watching you grow through the years
I remember I watched that vid when. You uploaded ... I think I was 15 yo now I'm 25 you have no idea how much I appreciate you mark as a person, as a RUclipsr and as a human being... Just don't be to hard on yourself ok....
“You look like you attract a lot of women”
Yep, you’re absolutely gorgeous 🔥 haha
I love your cringe reaction hahaha
Mark, this video😂👊🏻😂 I’ve been here since the beginning. So fun to actually get to watch it with YOU. 😂🍾🙌🏻
I remember watching this as a closeted high school kid. Watching this reminded me of how much I’ve changed and how far I’ve come since then. Thanks Mark for being one cool ass human being then and now!
I know & understand the "cringey" feeling--we all do. Also, I personally don't find anything wrong with the past because it's who we use to be and in the end WE ALL CHANGE.
This is definitely NOSTALGIA!!!
This video doesnt define who you are now, but its a start of something new & great bigger plans in life.
Now, many people love you for who you are today Mark. Kudos 😎🏳️🌈🎉
definitely how I found you back then and have followed since
Your videography and honest messages since have kept me here :)
That was the video that originally brought me to your channel. Still love your content today, and glad you're still true to your video making style!
I don't comment on many videos, but like many here, I did see that video when it originally was posted. In an age of short attention spans, it is a testament to the chanel.
I can’t believe I’ve been watching your channel since the beginning!
I remember when you first posted that video! At the time, it was helpful. I love watching your growth and you have to know that your videos helped me so much in my self acceptance and coming out process. Thank you so much for that. Sending love and good vibes
I remember watching this video as a teen of about 16 or 17. It was funny and cringe but in a good way. Some people were just clueless and it was very of the time in a way.
Also your baby face is crazy. It's crazy how much we change in a decade!
Love you Mark 😊 literally saw this video when it came out lol
XOXO
That was the 1st vid i watched of u, almost 9 years ago (back at my college days), since that i started following your channel, i connected with your content bc somehow i felt entertained and represented.. (not sure if that makes any sense but still) thanks for the videos.
Haha yep I remember this one! I felt so nervous for a bad reaction, sadly even now I did. In general I'm sure guys (or people) don't care as much now BUT of course it really depends which state and area you're in.
I remember when you posted that video I follow you since 2013. On november you will turn 10 years on you tube. Love you Mark
Mark - One of my favorite quotes of all time is: "To deny who I was, is to deny who I am."
Don't hide who you were! It got you here!
Thanks Mark,another great video.Looking good mate.❤
I'm glad you shared it all 🙂
iI'm gay, I'm older, was extremely homo-phobic and a fundamentalist Christian in the 80s , ( midwest) when I came out/ during the AIDS crisis & struggled with my sexuality... it isn't easy when 'being "gay' is a derogatory term in all grade schools.
I survived with no role-models.
What I find sad/intersting is that your generation is SOoo self-conscious , like it's always being filmed for YT, insta, etc.
No one is judging , really , and if they are it's not important. Self judgement is the worst. I have found sacred plant ceremonies to be the fastest form of therapy for building self-knowledge and overcoming low self esteem. I no longer give a F , except where my heart says I do. "What others think is None of my biz' is my mantra. I love myself and I love others. life is simple now. thx for your explorations, you have everything going for you!
Not me crying because you pointed out this was 10 years ago! I remember so vividly when seeing that videos back then and how they made me feel. I got all emotional because I though of the growth you have done as well my own since then. Wow look at us 😅
I remember watching this when it came out “of the closet” and I enjoyed the view down memory lane. Not sure if you dress British or not haha, but such a great video, as always Mark. Love the positive vibes and I still enjoy all your content without a doubt. It certainly is a reminder that I should go through my old videos and delete the cringe as well! Lol. Keep up the great work Mark.
You can say it was for the cheddaaa, no shame in hustling for a buck!! ❤️ - today certainly was a great day 😊
My son introduced me to your channel when he came out and then we got to meet you in Denver! Also, my mom went to Ball State☺️
Omg I forgot all about the old outro it was so nostalgic! 😭
I remember that original video! Wow, I've been watching you for 10 years! Time flies....
If you didn’t cringe at yourself ten years ago, you would not have evolved and grown into the man you are today. Be happy Mark!
I loved that video and that's the reason why I started watching you!
Mark, you don't need to remove any videos. Yes, this is hella cringe I even remember thinking that when I watched this all those years ago. I thought "Oh, he (as we all do) doesn't want to be thought of as effeminate and is worried he may "look gay". I did the same thing just didn't have a youtube channel to post it on lol.
It did have a little taste of "humble brag" also but I think that is just cause you are a handsome man and people are going to comment as such.
I remember the video lol. Can’t believe I’ve been following you this long! Keep up the good work, mark!
Can't believe im watching this again after 10 yrs. Cheers!
It’s been about two years since I last stopped by your channel and I’m glad I came back today ✨❤️
There was some article in polish media about that video and the whole idea, that's how I found you Mark 🤭 10 years... wow, time flies
MY GOD, I'M FOLLOWING YOU FOR NEARLY 10 YEARS!!!??? I AM SOOOO SHOOOOOKET!!!! I was just a high school kiddo getting to know myself🥲
It’s not odd, it’s still a good relevant video. Keep it, you’ve never looked silly, you presented confidently while comfortable with yourself. Keep it, gold.
