This is the most depressed happy person I’ve ever seen.

I don’t see the happiness. I just see a very sad human being.
Her eyes looks so unhappy. Ellen Page will never be a boy or a man. She's a woman.
Just a matter of time.

Hey, ladies, what does it mean to be a man?
“Short hair, flat chest, jeans, t-shirt, no makeup, and push ups.”
Uh, ok 🙄
good now change that tyre since you are a man
That’s how it feels seeing trans people. They’re a mockery of real people.
I like how they consider gender a social construct then try to fit exactly what society says that gender looks like when they transition. They still go with the construct while protesting it.
EXACTLY!!! You put the exact words of the irony in all of it.@@addyray5225
@addyray5225 thiss!! If they feel like a man internally, why change anything. Ur a man, live ur best life king

@@EnigmaRecluse 😂
sounds like you need him to be depressed to affirm your biases...
Being a tomboy has been erased from public life, and it's terribly sad. Not wanting to wear a dress doesn't mean you're a boy. It's literally just fabric.
🙄 Wow, how incredibly ignorant. Pick up a book.
Not wanting to wear a dress doesn’t mean you’re a boy in ALL cases but in this one it does… it’s hard to put disphoria into words. If you don’t understand these feelings, that means you don’t identify as trans which is great for you but it doesn’t make his life experience any less valid
@@kriskabin50 likes to your zero. You suck Kris 😂
And yet when they do wear boyish clothes they are instantly labeled as lesbians, or unattractive or something along the line. The same with men who like to wear more feminine clothes. They are ridiculed, and thats when they start their transitions.
@@Prismalpink LOL 😂
He went from having a nice female voice to sounding like a 2 pack a day smoker old lady.
What happened to just being gay? Also just being a tomboy. We are at a scary time in history where we are having surgeries to fix internal unhappiness
I hope your only concern here is that Page transitioned because he hopes that would fixed his mental stress within himself (and that he did that after having self-harm occassions during recent pandemic). But not every trans person shares Page's journey, and you probably knows that, seeing that you subscribed to several trans youtubers. Ironically, along with right-wing pundits that think trans people should be unseen from public life (so then "the kids" wouldn't be "infected" with confusion).
You can smile but the eyes never lie.
She used to look much happier... but now....
He's sexy ❤
@@DetransLizard the awkward thing about people commenting on this without reading the memoir is you're telling on yourselves. Comments full of people saying he used to look happier when he was being raped by crew members, abusing substances, hiding his relationships, and self-harming... like just say you're fooled by a fake smile and go. Process why you're so uncomfortable with someone trying to be honest and vulnerable before judging them for it.
@@mah-rokhan6171 she was raреd? Wow, I didn't know that.. Now it makes more sense why she decided to transition. Literally any female I know who transitioned mentions she used to be abused or rаped. That's so painful, I had the same experience
@@mah-rokhan6171 it's very common for females to transition to male after being raped in order to escape the trauma and to kinda "protect themselves" from predators
This person is extremely depressed. No surgery is going to help that.
You never know what some people are going through.
Some of y'all really need more compassion, put culture politics to the side & try to listen to others as human beings. Even if you don't understand another persons path in life, we all deserve to be shown dignity and the right to live our own lives how we see fit.
The amount of vitriol carelessly being spewed in this comment section, to this day, is kind of baffling tbh
Its really sad to see all this hate
No one is debating their existence. Please. We are debating the lunacy of their claims.
Exactly. The counter-arguments are always so intellectually dishonest and gaslighting. No-one, not even the staunchest 'TERF' (and that word is so awful) is calling for mass culls or 'unpersoning' or anything of the like. Most want to get these lost souls some actual help, so they stop needlessly mutilating themselves then via social contagion encouraging others to do the same.
What about this is crazy? Does it even matter? It’s 2024, mind your business.
@@DeVoe86 they are making untrue claims and saying that it’s true and that we have to agree that it’s true. If you don’t understand that then I just pity your intelligence.
Of course the world should mind their own business, however, all bets are off when someone comes out publicly on a huge platform, allowing people to give their thoughts & opinions. Kind of makes others feel like it is their business when it's in our faces all the time. Some people will be negative & others positive. I say live & let live, however, I will not give into the terminology.
No one is debating their existence. Please. We are just debating their existence. I am very smart. 🤡🤡🤡

The fact that she has all the money makes it even worse. Give a crazy person money and they will do crazy things. If she was poor she couldn't have afforded the surgery. She should have put all the money into therapy.

People aren’t debating if trans people exist or not.
They are debating how tolerant they want to be to accommodating gender dysphoria particularly when it impacts on other peoples rights and comforts.
Screw you, that is not for you to decide. Unless you yourself are transgender, you shouldn’t even be talking about this.
Technically trans people don't exist men and women with gender dysphoria exist who need mental health care not affirmation of their delusion couples with drugs and mutilation of their bodies.
Democrats always make false statements to get people to submit. Then again, they think that Audrey Hale was a hero and that the young children it killed were asking for it, which says it all. Hell, if you were to run a UV light over Audrey Hale's corpse since it shot up that school, it would reveal GALLONS of Democrat seminal fluid all over it and in all 3 of its holes. FACT.
So well said! 👏🏻
And the care is experimental & doesnt alleviate the condition, people react often by ending things regardless of the care given (per medical journal reports)
It must be depressing being a 5'1" scrawny "man".
I feel like there is a huge wave of people who just can’t accept themselves for who they are
Ok let me explain. You probably feel like this is a trend or something, but its not. People who dont feel like the gender they are born as were always there. But in the past you couldn't talk abt that since people didnt know that these people really have a problem (dont get me wrong, its not like they are mentally ill, they are just unhappy). And today you can talk abt who you really are and how you feel like
Also there was this sliiiight and worrying fact that you were gonna get killed for how you felt
I wonder how Elliot's going to feel ten years from now.
What do you mean?
@@thewizardofoz511 I mean the residual effects of having to take all these hormone medications to help with the transition. And there are people out there that have changed their mind and try to transition back. So I would just be interested to know how he is doing in 10 years from now. Hopefully still happy and doing well
@@truth1918 ooh ok, yea I gotcha
An idiot?
He’ll go back. He’ll realise he feels just as fucked up now as back then and will likely detransition.

Bullying can be really hard, I tried to take my own life 12 years ago because of it and thankfully got help afterwards.

@@mobcrusher99 You can never change who you are. “Transitioning” is a lie, Your just modifying your body to appear different to give the illusion that your something your not. You are female in your biological structure down to your genetic core, no amount of drugs or appearance changes will change that.
Trans people: "Gender is not about my body parts"
Also Trans People: continues to modify their body parts.
Crazy, right?
Not all of them, though. Not every trans person wants surgery. Some are comfortable with changing their style or taking medication. Trans people can be trans without wanting surgery. Remember not everyone is the same. Everyone is different
@@kayleebueno23 LOL - Try to find ONE transman who keeps their breasts. At the very least, they bind them down (until they can afford the surgery.)
@@jtrain5615 I’m pretty sure there a lot of them. In fact, for those who do want to get surgery, a lot of them can’t because some states are banning gender affirming care. Trans people are even getting killed. Just leave trans people alone for god’s sake
@@kayleebueno23 Kinda hard when it's shoved down our throats all the time. We're being forced to play along with the lie, and use ridiculous pronouns (cat/kit/catself , clown/clownself???) And then there's the issue of biological men taking women's trophies in sports competitions. Exposing themselves in women's locker rooms, etc. They pushed it too far and the public has said, "enough."
Trans.....sorry use any word, any surgery, and pronoun you want. At the end of the day, your a full fledged woman from the inside!!! And that, will never change. I feel sorry for all these people that are unhappy inside, confused with themselves and want to be someone else. This has nothing to do with being religious or old fashion, but when a group of people come a long and want to change up mother nature and the creation of human beings , then thats ridiculous.
Of course he is born as a biological female but gender in its form we have today is a social construct. You dont have to be a woman if you dont feel like one. When I say im a man, I mean i feel myself as a man and want to be seen as one. It doesn't matter what I was born as

Perfect role model for confused children.
Why did she agree to do a movie about being a pregnant teen girl if this was so distressing. Seems to me it should have been a hard no.
I wanted to be a boy when I was around 8 years old. Boys get to have cool cars, they can play whatever they want, play outside til late. I grew up being boyish, I have been asked several times if I’m lesbian. I knew I wasn’t, but it’s odd coz I don’t like girly stuff. I wanted to be a boy because of what boys can get/have or experience. I hated being girly. Eventually, I realized I can wear whatever I want. I can be feminine and boyish. That blue is also for girls, cars is also for girls. I was able to embrace who I am when I accepted that I can do and have whatever I want. I can wear boys clothes if I want to, I can wear girls clothes if I want to. But I am a woman, with a vagina with an XX chromosomes.
I think those who have gender dysphoria, they aren’t proving their existence to others but to themselves. I can only imagine their struggle. It must be difficult to be in a body where you couldn’t accept, where it felt so wrong.
Personally, I believe so long as you aren't hurting anyone and are a concenting adult, you should be able to transition. I also believe you should be required to go to therapy prior to having the procedure done and talk to someone who is unbiased either way as to not influence your judgment.
yopu went through a tomboy pohase that lots of girls go through,nothing wrong with it,whats weird is these people that want to mutilate themselves for life,chopping off a penis doesnt make anyone a woman
@@denverlilly3669 They are not transitioning into anything,they are still men with chopped off cocks and women with mutilated bodies.Its self harm,they are hurting themselves and encouraging other deluded people to do the same
Maybe dealing with it like it's a psychological problem is the key, not mutilating yourself.
It’s funny because when you say all of the freeing things being a boy is, it’s in many ways the exact opposite. Yes, you can certainly have more perks as a child while being a boy, but God knows when you’re a male adult - especially one that doesn’t fit the typical mold as a boy - not only are you stigmatized by women, but also by men for not conforming and fitting the exact, rigid mold of what being a man is. Other than hyper-sexuality, women can socialize, wear (within reason - more the pants vs. dress dichotomy), think and do as they please without being judged in society.

@@idiomaxiomSHE is sad and doesnt feel that trans is helping her case but SHE is hiding from the truth
They are real. Real annoying.
Real awesome
Ratio would disagree
I read the book and it's incredible disjointed and in my opinion also not well written. Each chapter is like its own essay and topics keep changing and morphing in and out of each other. Elliot has so many friends and they just keep talking about so many of them I just felt like dang, I've never had hundreds of friends like that, how do they have THAT MANY FRIENDS? And I couldn't keep track of them all. They didn't really go deeply into their feelings except to say over and over the very generic stuff about wanting to wear boy clothes or play with boy toys. That's kind of it. This title says "opens up" and I did not feel like we found out anything they have not already mentioned in interviews. The memoir also is NOT about "coming out as trans". It doesn't make an intimate journey into how Elliot started to feel initially, when they realized they were not a girl, why they chose acting as a profession since it is so extremely body focused. He asks why everyone is obsessed with his body, but the entire book is ABOUT HIS BODY. There are a lot of words in the book but very little said. He got paid 3 million dollars to tell us something generic, and not allow us to really understand anything more about him and his journey. I feel there are so many questions and Elliot is not ready or willing to answer them. Not worth buying but check it out from a library if you're curious. I bought it and feel like I just didn't learn anything about Elliot I didn't already know.
Thank you. I was planning to read it but now I am not going to. You saved me money,time and dissapointment.

I don't think generally people don't believe trans people exist.
I have an issue with the phrase "assigned at birth". What is noted at birth is someone's reproductive sexual anatomy. That with very rare exceptions, is objective and easily measured, not subjective. Historically sex and gender were used interchangeably. In current discussion gender is being used to describe a person emotional state which is not always correlated to their reproductive physiology.
Many sex/gender aligned people the phrase "assigned at birth" at best dismissive and at worst insulting .
I think you are right, the sex assigned at birth is objective and not subjective but gender isn’t the same at sex, it is the emotional state as you call it and it can differ from the sex which is how people are trans and I think many trans people don’t want to be associated with that sex assigned at birth so they call it just that but it doesn’t mean it isn’t real
The emperor is nude
Uh, you do know that this is all Gender Dysphoria right? A real mental illness. 100% of these people deeply regret lopping off body parts and taking hormones later in life.
"objective and easily measured" "very rare exceptions"
These are contradictions. If it were really an objective and precise thing, there wouldn't BE exceptions. Like most things in life, there exists a grey area (intersex people exist and most don't appreciate the constant dismissal of their biology). But that's not even relevant here, because "sex assigned at birth" is just a phrase used to differentiate from the sex you identify with now. At birth you're "assigned" a sex based on your sexual anatomy, but you may later reject that. No need for the semantic debate.
@Augusto Pinochet Why?
1:15 oh no the horror, you were asked to wear a dress and heels. If i was making the kind of money that these actors make I'd wear a burlap sack at the premier if thats what they wanted. There are people starving to death and being murdered, this really isn't that big of an "issue"
1st world problems...
That being said, Page was traumatized by growing up in an unstable family and working in Hollyweird, a place full of toxic, predatory people since she was a child. I can´t laugh or hate on her because it´s such a tragic story.
Wow...SHE has really gone down hill.
As a masculine woman I sometimes feel like people want me to be something I'm not but I don't think it's helpful to blame other people for not feeling validated or feeling shameful about who you are. I think everyone experiences this in some way and you just have to learn how to stop caring so much about what other people think and stand up for yourself
Just remember that you are still a woman. There is no right or wrong way to be a woman, but the left uses that truth as a method of pushing their ideology. Suggesting that means that anyone can be a woman rather than the actual truth that a woman can be anyone. Men and women are different and that's ok. We compliment each other and we need each other. We are failing our children, especially our young ladies
Yea I know how you feel. And the lgbt movement has kinda made it more difficult for women with a more melo/masculine personality and men with a more flamboyant personality. Its confusing people, making them think they are gay or trans when they are just a bit different
As someone who is a female but is more masculine, I am someone who doesn't mind being misgendered, you can call me a he or she, as long as you are nice, that is all that matters. But I don't use my experience as an argument for other people's struggles because it's irrelevant, I don't experience gender dysphoria, and I'm not in front of millions of people having to put on clothes that I'm uncomfortable in. Elliot's struggles are valid and different, it's so easy to tell a stranger to just don't care what people think, but it doesn't solve the problem, people react and experience things differently, dismissing it because you do it this way doesn't help, not everyone can be like you, and vice versa.
Also, stop the stupid narrative that the LGBT+ is trying to confuse people that they are gay or trans, you can't make someone any of those things, you're helping no one when spinning that ignorance.
You have to accept yourself first, too bad Ellen didn’t get that/
It's not at all about feeling ashamed of who you are. Believe it or not, people are able to have completely different experiences. Although maybe this wasn't and isn't most peoples. It is his journey, not yours to judge. Not your journey to push your 'Well, I feel this way, so clearly you do too.' It is so good to be a masculine female! But some people try that and it simply *doesn't work*. It's not confusing people, simply bringing more things to light. It is *okay* to question. It is still quite early stages. Running away from your problems in a way of 'No, this *cannot* happen.' Is so unhealthy. People call LGBTQ+ sensitive, yet they are never the ones to come onto videos like this spouting hate like others have.
Society is only going down
It’s not a debate. You are responsible for your actions and feelings. You are not your feelings. Be responsible.
The amount of self importance these people radiate is absolutely astonishing. They never STFU about themselves or their “truth”.
And what about you shutting tf up? You’re the one who chose to come on this video spewing hatred for no reason. Obsessed much?
But that’s also this entire comment section. Well I think this and I think that and I am right. Who are you to tell anyone how they think? And why does it matter? How much is this issue effecting your world? Only reply in vague metaphors because how dare you have an opinion? That’s sarcasm btw I have to point it out because I know you won’t understand

It's really astonishing to me how stupid and ignorant people are. Of course it's a big deal! Think more than two seconds, look at the comments and try to use your empathy to understand why it's constantly a topic for trans people.
Transitioning seems like more than running away from who you are. It's almost like a complete break from reality.
Like having mental issues
Being trans is a reality one has to accept. Trying to deny reality and pretend we are cis is something most of us try, but it's so awful denying reality. The only solution is to accept reality and transition as best you can.
@@idiomaxiom Reality is there is no such thing as trans, and the reality will remain that the vast majority won't by into the crap. And for every new pride month or propagandistic interviews, the larger the majority will grow:)
@@idiomaxiomthe irony
Gender affirming care is care for the spirit, not the body. Therefore it doesn’t belong in institutions that affect the spiritually divergent masses, and it especially doesn’t belong in a child’s school curriculum. If Elliot Page and others like her are truly at peace with this path, they should have the strength to walk alone. Sadly, I believe it is incredibly rare for the spirit of woman to reside in a man’s body and vice versa, and many have chosen to transition as a result of a very harmful political agenda that is a deliberate attack on biological truth and the spiritual resolve and reproductive health of the masses. We have a common enemy - the top 1% that wishes to cripple and enslave us for purposes of self preservation alone.

To elaborate: I actually see a mix of emotions. I see happiness at being himself, but sadness at the existence of jerks like you. I will accept one criticism though: Other commenters here have called him a boy because of his boyish figure, and it was indeed said as an insult, so I shouldn't have unthinkingly repeated it.
@@AbcDef-ww2gy you're obviously projecting your own feelings on her lol. "sadness at the existence of jerks like you". That's a further stretch than her actually not being happy about the choice she made. In Sweden arguably the most thorough follow up on people who had "sex reassignment surgery" over the course of 30 years finds that they are 20 times more likely to self delete.
If there's anything disgusting about the trans community is that they ignore those that regret their decision after they were convinced by them to make permanent irreparable changes to their bodies. I've seen enough of them actually REJECTED by their community when they ask for fucking help! And you say I'm a jerk for saying that she looks like she's in pain? Please go check yourself.

Some children are without drinkable water. Some people are asked to wear a dress to a formal event. You decide what "needs" to be discussed.
There are ppl without drinkable water who also have gender dysphoria. Intersectional problems exist. Your poverty "argument" doesn't exlude other struggles that other ppl have. Struggles like gender dysphoria which you're clearly uneducated about.
I love when people suddenly bring up these grand world issues like hunger, war and african children only when they want to trivialize issues of trans people. Otherwise they don't give a f. Have you ever donated to children without drinkable water?

Elliot Page is going to scoop up all those leading roles for odd-looking, androgynous, depressed persons. Maybe they're making a sequel to 'It's Pat!'.
Maybe. Her voice sounds horrible tho and has probably been severely damaged from the testosterone use.
Pat was far more upbeat and oblivious.
This is her best performance yet! She's in Kayfabe mode!
Weird seeing how the body language, the way of talking and the facial expressions are very female. Funny how no matter how much you change your appearence, you can never change your nature.
I mean I don't really get it. But each to their own. I never had any gender dysphoria. Liked boys clothes and girls clothes and same with activities. So Im comfortable in my sex and gender.
I cannot imagine what it must be like.
don't worry, this person doesn't have any gender dysphoria either. a snippet from her book "We crept in,
whispering, and sped into a stall, looking at each other with mischievous smirks. Lips smacking, he put this hand on my breasts, my nipples grew hard..." then she cuts her boobs off claiming it "cured" the dysphoria. it's all public stunt and she's doing harm to real transsexual people by appropriating their culture and by advertising harmful trans agenda, advocates for kids to be involved into this.
Me neither but I don't know if encouraging people to change themselves entirely is the answer. It's a very permanent thing to erase the identity you had and become someone totally different and many people don't even get a psych eval before being given hormones or blockers and I'm sorry but they are using inclusivity as an excuse to push a money making agenda and a lot of people are going to be screwed up because of it. Sure, it's the right road for some people but this has turned into a trend. If someone is confused they can easily be pushed into believing they are trans and need to change themselves and that's dangerous. I don't want anyone to feel uncomfortable in their own skin but I feel like we are sending the wrong message here and making people think it's okay to erase yourself. We all have things about ourselves we don't like and learning to accept the good and the bad is part of life so I have a hard time understanding how this is healthy but I am still learning about all of this too.
its torture - you go to a mirror expecting a face and a body shape and while you know what you will look at once you see yourself in the mirror its also always a surprise... a negative one at that. you lean on a wall and depending on what gender you are and what sex you are, you may be horrified to notice that your head wont reach the wall that you lean on because youre shoulders are so wide or in the reverse that your head reaches it so incredibly soon. you go to the toilet and expecting to pee with a certain type of genitals but either you feel mutilated because the expected penis is missing, or you feel like some cancerous object is growing in the zone that is most precious to the human individuals. either way its hard to start peeing, especially when you are in public...
when starting to transition after puberty (not having been given the opportunity to use puberty-blockers - and not having been given the opportunity to socially transition) it can be kind of a worse feeling that being given the diagnosis of a terminal disease. with a terminal disease, you have the opportunity of hope that the life living with this disease may still be worth living, and you may surpass your expiry date. but being trans... you have no opportunity, no support from anyone and not even hope to get back what you have lost: your missed out childhood - its in the past. its already been demolished. its gone for good. its gone. there is no return. there is nothing you can do to make the pain of having lost the most important part of your life go away. its like a fever-dream that has become your reality, and you will never ever be able to wake up from it. your lifes history is pure garbage. all of youre memories of the past are pain and suffering. but the worst part can be the following: because you live in a society that wants to see your kind being extinguished you have little hope for the future (you have - especially for certain things - but other aspects can overshadow this hope). you will always have to live in fear that someone may come after you. you always have to live in fear that you may be terminated from this cursed hell that everyone calls reality.
Its a pure nightmare that has gone waaaayyyy too far but has become your actual life.
this at least captures a small part of how i feel about myself - there are people out there that probably have it much, much worse than i do. the only thing that makes this nightmare become managable, is to transition - it makes you feel good about your present - it makes you feel be in sync with yourself. hrt at least has done that for me - i hope that surgeries that i have planned will make my life worth living - i cant even have sex as of now as i actually fear just the thought of doing that with my current body - it would feel sooo wrong! i may only lose my virginity in a few years from now after i got bottom surgery. im really looking forward to that :)
@@katalantra why all of you trans people have to be paranoid and negative about everything? no one gives a damn about you and no one is hunting you. its your illness speaking. I'd suggest to postpone transition and especially surgeries till you can manage your mental health to the point of sanity. who told you everyone were happy being kids? childhood is the worst darkest time of my life, never in my life I felt so bad. grow up buddy. it will fix 90% of your issues and only then proceed to mutilate and sterilize yourself.
That is trauma right there. Why dont you release your resentment towards your mama
I don't get it. She still looks the same but with her hair cut short and wears boyish clothes - none of which requires surgery or transitioning. Only thing she's changed is remove her boobs but she was already quite small chested to begin with.

Я надеюсь, ты понимаешь русский (you can use Google translate if you don't understand what I am saying) - ну да, запретить медицину ради "духовных скреп" это мерзко, где права человека (офигеть, теперь даже Иран прогрессивнее)?

I am so tired of people trying to decide how Elliot feels FOR him. The only reason y'all are concerned about how he feels is because you're so badly trying to spin this in a transphobic light. You want an excuse to misgender him and deny him his autonomy when it's literalllyyyyy not any of your business.
You know why he isn't grinning and smiling during this? It's because he's having to remember and talk about his DYSPHORIA THAT WAS EVEN WORSE WHEN HE WAS PRESENTING AS A CIS WOMAN. He wasn't happy! If this was me I wouldn't be happy either talking about it, I wouldn't be happy knowing hundreds of people out there would force me to detransition if it were up to them.
I was miserable as a woman. I hated it SO much and I feel LEAGUES better as a man. Being trans was the best thing for me. I love being on testosterone and I've been waiting years to get top surgery. But we don't have to prove our feelings to anyone. Elliot doesn't owe anyone anything and if he says he's trans, then he is. Dysphoria is absolutely awful and if any of you actually knew what it felt like then maybe you'd understand even a smidge better without trying to downplay every single trans person out there who doesn't present or behave the way you want.
👍👏 Well said Toby! Good for you for speaking out & telling a bit of your courageous story.
I'm Trans too, it's just galling when these highly ignorant hetero/cis-gendered ppl pass judgments on us. Demonize us. Using only THEIR lived experience as a cis person to try figure us out.🙄 Then tell us that it's nothing; "well, it's just clothes!" Or, " I was a tomboy too, but I grew out of it."
Thankfully, my parents didn't care about my wearing "boys" clothes when I was a kid, so I did. My hair was short on my insistence too.
When I was 9yrs old a teacher at school said for the next day's class recital, all the boys had to wear pants & the girls had to wear a dress or skirt. My heart sank. I was so shocked & devastated with the thought that I had to wear a dress to school. (This was 1978)
I was a wreck & absolutely miserable for the rest of the day, night & on to the next morning; "D" day, I thought.
Putting my one & only never worn skirt on, I walked out to the bus. It was excruciating! I felt SO humiliated. It felt so WRONG! I couldn't look at anyone when I got on the bus, I wanted to die. And, to top it all off the kids poked fun at me for wearing a dress! Hell, even they knew it wasn't right for me!
When I arrived at school I learned the event was canceled, & I raced into the bathroom with my backpack & pulled out my blue jeans. I couldn't get that f*ck'n skirt off fast enough! (I'm in my 50s now, & let me tell you, I haven't worn a skirt or dress since that horrible experience!)
Now, this is just one of a zillion painful Transgender experiences that I have had to deal with in my life.
So, thanks brother for sharing. We all need to speak out & educate the ignorant masses with our personal Trans experiences. 🫶🏳️⚧️
@@kriskabin Thank you for such a thoughtful response! I appreciate you adding in your own experiences here too. Why people don't choose to listen to actual trans people eludes me. Somehow the tens of thousands who are living better than ever before thanks to their affirming care are less important than the like. 8 people who detransitioned due to not actually being trans? And every single accusation thrown at our community is the same exact dog whistles used for minority groups in the past. Remember when black men were accused of being out to hurt women? That they were sexual deviants who we should hide our wives and children from?
Or what about gay people with the same. Exact. Things said about them? The very ads used calling gay men p/dophiles are on youtube, a simple click away. They want to pretend that we have 0 historical significance, and that being trans is nothing but a passing fad, but we've long, long been here for decades. You're proof of that too.
And I am just....so tired of people acting like they know me better when they've never even met me. Literally no one is pushing any sort of agenda. Trans kids every day are getting beat and kicked out and sent to conversion camps simply for questioning their gender identity, and for what? Because their parents are too scared that their little boy wants to wear a longer piece of fabric? That their little girl just wants to be told "I'm proud of you, son"? It's utterly ridiculous.

@@Toby-if6rg Thank you kindly, my guy. I'm really looking forward to it. And yeah, I think I understand what's going on in their brains: when you've never for a moment doubted yourself, then clearly you are right about everything, including other people's lived experiences, and you never question that you might be wrong, I suppose. I think it's also a lack of empathy. I try to remember that I am mostly surrounded by supportive people, and these online jackasses are not people I have interactions with in real life. Hopefully it's the same for you. :)

I don’t understand why you can’t be yourself and just dress and act however you want to without the hormones, and the mutilation of the body, if gender roles and expectations truly don’t matter.
