it makes me crack a smile everytime when bill goes "hey look at me" because bill is so fucking humble, it tells alot about his character and who he is as not just a man, but a person, and to see bill be surprised at connecting with all types of people he never thought he would connect with, is not only a joy to listen to, but is a example of how we all should treat each other, like bill, with the same amount of respect and dignity as you would with any other person this guy deserves a fucking medal
@@boerbeun that might be true, but where I live - in one of the biggest cities of the USA, everyone under the age of like 5” knows a trans person or understands something about them. We have a larger trans awareness in bigger cities.
This is why Bill Burr is ending up being the greatest comedian of our time: He gives a shit. Jokes are fun, but Bill gives you heart to go with the laughs, he genuinely cares.
Jonathan Devereaux lmao okay simpleton. That why you watch Bill and comment on his video. Because dislike his style of comedy. Fantastic point Einstein 👍
Bill Burr ties his brain in knots trying to understand a fan letter. "Wait, I thought he was . . . wait, is he saying if I was . . . okay, let me read this again."
@@hawk5096 He's not great at reading and he is not a rocket scientist. The reason Bill is so beloved is that he knows that and acknowledges it in his comedy. If that is not for you no biggie.
@@mikehunt69981 That's partly true, but there are tons of situations where Bill reads a sentence and I immediately know what the person meant and Bill does not.
I appreciate Bill acknowledging how foul it is to cut off or abuse in any way a family member for being trans. I have a trans brother and I remember my dad's heart breaking because when he came out to us when he was 16 he said "don't worry mum and dad I know this is a lot so I've already packed my things. I'm sorry and I wish I could help it". My dad said it was the worst feeling, knowing that his child thought for a second that they could ever disown him. Wow that was long. Anyway, that was cool of Bill.
I said something similar to my Dad when I came out as a man. I had grown up listening to my Dad and his side of the family use gay and transphobic slurs my whole life. They would also add other less savory commentary on top of that. When I came out, I expected to be ousted and was expecting to just learn to live with it. My Dad was crying when he said that wasn't going to happen.
I also have a trans sibling but my parents are divorced and we lived with my mom when they came out. It’s been like 3 years since my sibling/bro-ster came out and my dad is still saying “I hope it’s just a phase.” I honestly don’t know if my dad would’ve kicked them out if we lived with him. Thankfully my mom is pretty open minded and my sibling identifying as trans helped rationalize a lot of my irrational opinions. (a lot of them that I got from my dad)
@@julianusvictor327 what makes you assume they are being who they are? It's ironic that people say "this is who I really am" even while they deny their own biology. And if it isn't in their biology, where does it come from? Their mind? I mean, how come the argument for years and years has been that people are born gay, but yet when people are born male or female, it's not really who they are? This all is on very shaky science to say the least.
Lol, valid question. I was very confident about my tattoo choices when I was 16 thru 25 years old. At age 37, I would definitely be okay with losing half of them
@@RustCole01 I was about to say...I'm too indecisive to get a tattoo. But there's also no significant internal pressure for me to get a tattoo like there is for many trans people to transition.
@@seanmatthewking to help you with your tattoo decision. For as long as it is a little thing, nothing that would change your image, get it, when you get old it's gonna be like a freckle, and your gonna have a lot, so it's not gonna matter anyway. I don't know.
I'm cisgender, but I don't think you "become" trans, you "are" trans. Just like you don't "become" gay, you 'are" gay. I don't pretend to speak for those folks, just giving my perspective.
Bill talking about people on the Right learning you can pick out a Matthew McConaughey chest is hilarious. Stephen Crowder literally just did that. Lmao
Bill is such a good dad that in his hypothetical *that’s where I draw the line* he would still visit all the time and ask within “what did I do to contribute to this happening?” What a gem.
@@Rocchio753 Feeling a bit insecure are we? If you're using "beta" ironically, you're invoking Poe's Law. If you're using it unironically today.. That's just really embarrassing.
I can tell Bill's confused about this, but I really appreciate how respectful and compassionate he is. He's right that a lot of cis people don't get a chance to process this stuff and ask questions in good faith when they first encounter it, which contributes to the reactionary blowback. On the other hand, when you're trans or nonbinary, answering the same questions over and over again and shrugging off the gazillionth "i IdEnTiFy As aN aTtAck HeLiCoPtEr" can get real wearyIng real fast.
Okay but come on man, at a certain point it just gets ridiculous how much terms are being created so that a small minority can avoid uncomfortable social situations

That’s a weird comment cuz, a lot of trans men - you would never ever know. There are trans male porn stars. It does not get any more confusing then that! And there are trans male body builders that look as masculine as any male on the planet. A “picture” would not be of use.

9:51 "you gotta let everybody go with their emotions" - we don't choose our emotions and how we feel, only what emotions we express and how. And everyone should be ALWAYS welcome to feel genuinely confounded or curious and honestly asking questions
I don’t know a huge amount about Bill, but he seems like one these ably me types that when he doesn’t understand will ask the appropriate questions and let everyone live and let live. That’s my experience with most men that are comfortable in their masculinity.
What a great video. It's really nice hearing from a transgender person's point of view instead of just some douchey SJW "sticking up" for what they think is their point of view
Yeah, two items of uptight, nose in the air arts. Unless violin is short for "street violence-ist" and sculpture is short for "making badass 3d models of the terminator for gta mods". Otherwise, that's not legendary, that's parent funded or school granted.
@@i.qena_ nahh, I grew up in a pretty standard house. Some kids are bred in violin and take sculpture classes. Theater historians just aren't as legendary as people who can make deloreans in GTA.
I'd be bummed out if my son or daughter went thru this but I couldn't disown them. That's their journey, not mine. Whatever it is, its still half of me and I'll love them for being them.
I would just want to understand what went threw their mind to have this. Trying to disown them or put them threw psychologist would be too cruel. Just having a talk is more humane that forcing them to do anything
For those who don't get it: "I don't want to be the one guy in a traditionally female role. I'm betting his grooms men felt the same" OP is a man. Bill was probably still seeing him as a female since he's F2M transgender that made him confused on that bit. OP did not want to be a bridesmaid because he is a male in a females body and still feels he is not woman enough to be a bridesmaid. OP thinks that the grooms men would've felt the same way about having to be grooms men instead of bridesmaids. Like they are not man enough to be in a male role.
I think he was more confused by the perspective changing from 3rd to first person and putting themselves into the position of the grooms trans friends. He refers to op as a man seemingly without second guessing.
He was describing how much he felt out of place in his female birth body with asking you to imagine having boobs and being made to wear heels.....he wanted you to imagine how out of place you would feel.
I'll just put here for anyone who is genuinely confused "cis" just means you identify as your sex (so if youre born male, you identify as male)... thats it XD (I do get on certain social media platforms this word is usually used in an insulting way, but it has a neutral definition) Honestly love Bill Burr so much that he can make hilarious jokes but still be accepting of people and try to understand differences even if he does struggle with certain concepts XD
@@davidhutchinson7888 it does XD but its a prefix, so where "Trans" means change or "across" like to cross over to a new gender, the cis prefix from my understanding means "same side" so thats where the staying as your biological side may come in
@@davidhutchinson7888 cis is the prefix for cisgender (gender identity matches your sex assigned to you at birth), just like trans is short for transgender (gender identity is different from the sex assigned to you at birth). gender and sex are different. your sex is determined by your biological makeup, but your gender is like your sexuality, can’t be biologically proven, you just are what you feel you are
@@davidhutchinson7888 Cisgender has its origin in the Latin-derived prefix cis-, meaning 'on this side of', which is the opposite of trans-, meaning 'across from' or 'on the other side of'. Look it up on Wikipedia.
I think a lot of people are confusing "Left" with "Liberal" As a Left, I too am fed up with the "Liberal SJWs". Honestly, though, we should find a better term, "SJW" is from 2015. the group of people it applies to isn't even around anymore in any meaningful way.
“You’ll never be apart of this family again” … “Hey, uh, so I just remembered you’re the only one who can play violin. Can we postpone the disownership of you till after the wedding?”
If your family ever tells you "If you don't change X about yourself, you're no longer part of this family", if you have the means to get as far away from them as possible, do so!
Im not gay or anything haha but ive experienced being alienated by my family because of struggles i had with drug and alcohol addiction and not having the same religious view and having children out of wedlock. It's difficult and as a father myself whos made a lot of mistake, i still cant imagine ever turning my child away and judging them like that even if i disagreed with their lifestyle. I personally dont agree with homosexuality and transgenderism? Is that a word. Idk. But im not gonna be hateful to anyone bc like Bill said, God knows i have my own shit. Im now over a month sober and trying to become a better person alone and Bill's podcast always brings me a good laugh and lifts my spirit. He's not afraid to have his own views and make fun of everyone but he also doesnt think hes any better than anyone else. Hes learned to both embrace his flaws and work on them at the same time. Truly an inspiration. And he started out working a warehouse job like me 😆
@Jordan Wolfgram - _"...I personally dont agree with homosexuality and transgenderism?..."_ - If it's not for you/hasn't happened, yourself, don't _"do it",_ yourself - right?! And... here's the thing; if you aren't homosexual or, transgender (they are NOT the same thing, BTW); there's nothing for you to be personally, concerned about (regarding those things), anyway. _'If'_ I were to _'correct'_ your phrase, to mean something more, of your seeming intent; I'd say something like _"I'm not homosexual or, transgender, myself"._ - because, there isn't anything, for you to _"agree"_ with - you either is or, you ain't (or, you haven't figured it out, yet; or, can't/won't be that narrowly defined, etc). Hopefully, I'm not just splitting hairs, as it were... words, mean things; it sounds like you're doing a great job, despite plenty of difficulties. And, as you're experiencing some of the _'joys'_ that come from... _errm_ religious, indoctrination, etc... Allow me, please, to reverse/change some of your phrasing - so that you may better understand, the hypocrisy, of judgement on others. _"...Im not 'addicted' or anything haha but ive experienced being alienated by my family because of struggles i had with 'sexuality', 'gender-roles', 'body-dysmorphia' and not having the same religious view and not [having] children, at all..."_ (true story). I'm not a doctor (and, I don't 'play' one on TV) - _"...Im now over a month sober and trying to become a better person alone..."_ - May I say, respectfully: there isn't anything for you to _'try to be'_ - you are 100% complete, alone and, with company (you got bigger and, older, is all), since the day you were born - sadly, you were told 'what' to believe and, 'what' to think, for all of this time; instead, learn 'how' to believe and, 'how' to think (you're working on that, now!) - What I'm trying to say is; you have _'everything'_ that you _'need'_ right now! (you just don't have a clear-view, over the heaping pile of shit, that's in front of you). You're not an accident and, you're not a mistake (or, a failure) - You're a 100% legit, this life we all share - those before us and, those who shall yet come - each moment, is a new opportunity - make your better decisions, in each moment - the next moments, will follow... Peace-
What I have never understood is, that given how racist, transphobic and homophobic the US has been even during my lifetime, the amount of bullying and outright prejudice and aggression you must have faced if you are black, gay, or trans has to be incredible. (I suffered homophobic bullying as teenager just because people THOUGHT I was gay). I don't doubt we still have a long way to go, but I kind of expect people that have lived through this to be pretty tough. Yet the stereotype--particularly of trans people--is that they are incredibly sensitive even to the slightest "micro-aggression", like a well-intentioned person accidentally using the wrong pronoun or not knowing what "cis" means. This has never made sense to me. One explanation, judging from this letter is that maybe many transgendered are actually not ridiculously sensitive, but just want equal rights like everyone else. All this PC tip-toeing around really just makes everything worse.
To be fair i dont think you where bullied because they thought you where gay but just because you might have been slightly easier to bully then others and the insults they use dont necesarrily show their oppinions but they rather throw everything at you and take what hurt the most.
Aw man as a trans person I gotta say I'm happy he brought up the fact that transitioning isn't really an accident. Like when you tell people you're trans it's like they think it's the first time you've thought of it 😂. Like some guy is just like "damn wearing a dress is more fun then I thought" and then some trans fairy god mother plops down and irreversibly transitions you before you've even had a chance to notice 😂😂 A trans person can be anybody and anybody gets that suddenly dressing and asking to be treated differently then people are used to seeing/treating you in your every day life will be a hard sell for everyone around you. Like this is such a wierd concept to wrap your head around if you haven't experienced it from the inside. So if you are experiencing it you try *everything* else, any way to make it work without having to commit to the bit, and only once someone has reached the point they realise this is their only option to be happy instead of miserable they go for it. The concerns people have make sense if this is the first time you're hearing about the concept but people tend to forget that trans people who live that way every day and not just when it's trendy may have already considered these issues and found a solution that works
It’s fine to sincerely and earnestly ask questions. As long as you’re not mocking people and contributing to the hate that trans people. I understand asking questions. I don’t understand people who act like being trans is some delusion or agenda despite gender identity being acknowledged by all scientists/academics etc. It’s not hard to wrap your head around if you’re actually curious and don’t have biases built up.
I think one thing this video does wonderfully, is illustrate just how ABSOLUTELY CONFUSING all the Trans stuff is for many people. I can't follow this situation.
I have a trans sister in family. We listened and learned and we laughed together because, love wins. HMU, you or anyone else needs to understand smth about struggles or the science of trans ppl. I am always happy to help with it.
It sucks that genuinely curious people get attacked for asking an innocent question. It also sucks that the same innocent questions are also asked by trolls and transphobic people to get a rise out of people who get asked these questions all the time. Nobody really likes having to explain themselves all the time. The current political culture has made transgender people an upfront issue and that has its consequences. A good and well intentioned in person conversations are the way to go.
cis is the prefix for cisgender (gender identity matches your sex assigned to you at birth), just like trans is short for transgender (gender identity is different from the sex assigned to you at birth). gender and sex are different. your sex is determined by your biological makeup, but your gender is like your sexuality, can’t be biologically proven, you just are what you feel you are
@@sethadelmann6533 Exactly. I guess my experience has been when trying to ask questions, or being there when questions are asked, it's meet with an attack. I met a guy a couple of years ago that is not transitioning. She has stated, if anyone calls her by her old name, it's inexcusable. To me, that attitude is unacceptable. I screw up the names of my friends ALL THE TIME, right in front of them. To say that calling someone by the wrong name is inexcusable, for me means I just won't talk to you. If I make a mistake, something we all do, means you're going to rip my head off, then I won't expose myself to that situation. It shuts down communication when we probably need MORE communication.
@@cade377 Absolutely, people make mistakes and that's absolutely fine. I make mistakes with other trans people occasionally. Sometimes I even misgender myself, but this was more when I just started figuring myself out. Most people Irl are normally pretty chill about it, but you will encounter assholes. When I came out and said I was going to transition I sent out a blanket statement to everyone in my life " I will go at any pace you need, but there needs to be a pace". It has been over three years and that attitude has worked wonderfully. My Dad started out with saying he is only able to respect my decision to calling me Seth in front of his Father/ my Opa ( I think the only family member who isn't trying). Maybe he can't use my pronouns consistently yet, but the progress has been incredible and means a lot to me. However, I do think its important to keep some things in mind. The fact that trans people are a hot topic makes things a little more emotional than it needs to be. There are some people out there with some vile things to say. I occasionally go to transphobic spaces to open up the dialogue and I often have to pretend to be cis to get people to listen to me. I one time had the experience of someone thanking me for giving them a good conversation that they could NEVER have with a trans person. This guy did open up by saying that trans people are degenerates, so I'm not surprised. I hope he did some thinking after I came out to him.
I don't understand why a trans person would not be a leftist. Even if a lot of the American left is performative with their wokeness (far left would give free healthcare which would make it easier for people other than the middle class up to transition) it's better than being ignored or worse!
Because there are many dimensions of government and the false dichotomy of everything being left or right is purely ignorant and reductive. You could be left wing on social issues(liberal), then right wing on economic issues (libertarian), or the opposite (some kind of puritan anarchist/communist). It's not black and white and you should not tell yourself you belong to 1 particular party, and just assess things on their merits. That said, the US Republican party is fucking crazy and actively working against the interests of most people and turning the US populace against itself in order to create enemies that they promise to vanquish. And the SJW/woke mob on Twitter doesn't help achieve anything more than digging the graves of their own society
Bill talking about dudes getting their chest done, reminded me of that episode of Family guy where Peter got liposuction done and actually went back and got his chest done.
This is just me coming from someone who is technically on the right side, I have zero hate for anyone who is transgender, gay and bi. That is a huge common misconception about us and I'm really sick and tired of it! I swear they're using it as a way to make people hate us.
While it wasn’t true a few years ago it’s great to see that the majority of Republican voters now oppose anti trans laws. However, when a lot of your most vocal politicians propose this type of legislation over and over again it’s not difficult to see why people might get the «wrong» idea. Because Republican voters continue to elect them.
@@Cenyon same exact claim can be said democratic politicians as well....my grievance comes cause this is all literally the same team[ same government same legislative system] but people want to make it out like it's two sports teams against eachother...when it's a giant group of people fighting for moral superiority to force others to do as they want as oppose to compromising with one another [which is forgotten skill now apparently] ....any laws voted in at the federal level had to be agreed by BOTH dems and repub.... so any laws the dems dont like that was voted in by a good chuck of their "side" and vice versa....lots of these guys dont read the whole Bill's either but alot politican are voting on the title bill regardless of the context because the title is what the public hear and they dont wanna be seen as the one that "voted against"
@@Dolly.956. I’m not a fan of the Democrats, but they weren’t the issue here. I’m saying the reason why some people think most Republicans are anti-trans is because Republican politicians with a lot of public visibility try to impose anti-trans legislation. Why not blame them for giving trans-friendly Republicans a bad name?
@@Cenyon hmmmm I see what your saying and the blame isnt what Im nessercially arguing about ..if a politician does anything by all means hold their feet to the fire good or bad ....and I'm not even going off transgender issue by itself but it's just kinda lazy way to harshly judge people overall imo like how people have been judging eachother off of [Hillary vs Trump vs Biden] votes people will say they want everyone to be happy but we also dont want to put the effort to educate and debate their own position [Like having your cake and eating it too] Lol I guess in a way everyone wants THEIR version of a utopia ....
Bill nailed it: “We weren’t allowed to have our WTF?!!” moment by those on the left. If you didn’t immediately accept Bruce becoming Kaitlyn (or however you spell it), you were some kind of transphobic monster. Sorry, but all of us just can’t flip a switch and become “woke” overnight. The freakin’ “what pronoun to use”, “alphabet soup acronyms that get a new letter added every month” shit takes some time to adjust to. Doesn’t mean you hate trans folks; just means that after hundreds of years of two commonly referenced genders, “gender-fluid” concepts take us a minute to grasp.
but why is it so hard to understand? It's not like you have to entirely unlearn everything you know about sex and gender. Doesn't seem that intellectually challenging to me
@Kill All White People true, a lot fail to realise transgenderism, and the seperation of sex and gender, is scientiffic and is supported by the highest scientific authorities in the relevant fields like the American Psychological Association. The outdated understanding of gender and sex being inextricable and thus gender being a binary and not a spectrum is a good example of not understanding science.
@@HingleMcCringleberryPSU : Use the wrong pronoun with someone you’ve never met before, watch them have a complete screaming public meltdown about you “assuming their gender” & then perhaps you’ll see why. If you’re 6’ tall, muscular, with facial hair and appear to be male, and someone says: “Excuse me, sir”, why be mad just because you identify as something else? A person who doesn’t know you has no way of knowing what’s going on in your mind, and other than saying “Hey you!”, there’s no common way to address them without everyone suddenly being expected to know what ‘xyr’ means.
@@tvdavis Well that has absolutely never happened to me before, it's happened to you? I've a small number of trans friends, and they've not once corrected me (or anyone, in my company) on their pronouns in a way that resembled screaming, meltdowns, or even confrontation. Actually, I have accidentally misgendered people in public, and when it's happened I've never been confronted like it's some sort of great sin. The trans people I know aren't consumed by strangers not using their preferred pronouns. They're mostly disappointed that the scientific consensus on transgenderism isn't acknowledged. They don't care about your individual support, they just want your broad philosophical support, because there are so many people out there that just straight up deny their existence or legitimacy. Also, are you saying that people confronting strangers for misgendering them is part of the reason why the science of transgenderism is denied? Cause that'd be insane
@@HingleMcCringleberryPSU Kindly go back and read my first post. Nowhere did I deny the science of transgenderism. I said it is difficult for people to suddenly be expected to know what to say & how to properly address people. I’ve been mistakenly misgendered (on my birth certificate, of all places) & had to go through hell to get it corrected as an adult (apparently, the certificate they give your parents can be completely different from the “official” one the state has on file). I’ve also had people call me “sir” and I didn’t get all upset about it. But yes, I’ve had someone wig the f*** out on me & others for calling them the “wrong” gender, and it was presented as trying to “other” them & the whole “respect trans lives!” narrative kicked in. I’m a person of color. I get that being treated as “other” hurts, but you’ve got to understand that people aren’t always trying to destroy a trans person’s life, harm them, or offend trans people & that this is a very “new” thing for a lot of people to try & navigate.
These sorts of compilcations are part of the reason why some people who are LGBQT don't like to use labels anymore. In practice, the person would pick which ever label they wanted or none at all.
Really couldn’t imagine my immediate family giving me an ultimatum of living a double life, with them or being myself, without them. I wouldn’t even have the strength to tell a family member that. I’ve never loved a loved one conditionally, except for a few of my cousins😂
I feel like this guy writing in had a spot on take regarding most of the hate trans people perceive being hurled in their direction online being perhaps misinterpreted in terms of trans people not actually being the intended target of vitriol coming from parts of the straight mayonnaise cis (Billy in 21’ still like what’s that🤣) community. I really feel like that “go fuck yourself” energy that lands on them is more aimed at the RUclips and Twitch streamers sitting behind their desktop soapbox yelling how straight people need to do this, or that or deserve to be (fill in the blank form of social/economic sanctioned) if they don’t prescribe and fall in line automatically with the most extreme of progressive stances. In all seriousness, how’s that shit supposed to work with a guy like Bill Burr who unironically, and without any sarcasm or malice simply has not been familiarized with the term cisgender? I’m pretty far left in both my economic and social views, so it wasn’t a huge surprise that yesterday I found myself clicking on some progressive debate video regarding some trans term I can’t remember now, but it was a word to define the disclosure of being a pre operation bottom trans person to someone who you are about to have a first time NSA sexual encounter with who might or might not know you are trans. So, I was pretty baffled seeing the entire comments section just lit up with furious white people (the loudest of whom were 100% there to get their ally performative points, rather than actually being affected by the topic or feeling genuine anger). They’re all going in super hard on the 2 or 3 comments that politely pointed out how like if for no other reason, maybe it’d be smart to let the guy you’re currently deepthroating know when he throws you on the bed, there might be a problem of colliding one way traffic… All these people though, who I’m thinking now as I’m writing this must just have these takes due to being like 14 yrs old, are screaming and making sarcastic, catty replies saying shit like “jeez, you’d think these homo/transphobe CISsss white MEN would be a bit more chill seeing another cock considering how much they love playing with their own!!?!” Then a bunch of thumbs up and replies piling on “cock on cock violence”, “seeing a cock won’t be your demise”, “being exposed to unexpected penis won’t suddenly make you a gay”… So, like the point here seems to be the underlying position with the overwhelming majority of online lefties (at minimum within the fairly large streamer’s community I say this at) all agreed upon a position that the majority of society is soooo far removed from even being able to process without reacting from an immediate viscerally negative stance. These sorts of agreements within far left sections of vocal lefty social discourse that are completely removed from the rhetoric of everyday people seems like an immediate optics loss and to me would be a good estimate of where the actual scorn from not just alt right retards who’ve mostly faded away by this day and age, but just normal people who don’t react well to being called nazis for thinking it wouldn’t be cool to be forced into a situation where all of a sudden you are in this super uncomfortable situation with a confused, still wet with spit half hard on wondering whether you should just pretend you knew there was a meaty hog under the thong because you happen to be really bad with confrontation and hate making people feel bad about themselves. I just hope the majority of the trans community understands we don’t hate them, and we’d just appreciate a little time to get acclimated with how we need to tackle these new sexual encounters for example without hurting one another’s boners, feelings, or/and be left feeling confused about sexuality when we thought it was just the first pussy in months we were about to get. Personally, I would happily take either without complaint after no pussy since being dumped right before the bubonic plague had us hunker down for 1.5 yrs and lose our savings/pride/confidence/ability to stay sober at 1pm…ya know…
I hate that leftists get lumped in with liberals. Liberals are closer to conservatives than leftists are too liberals, especially those on the far left (Marxists, Anarchists, etc). Plus, most leftists absolutely despise liberals, and most liberals despise leftists. Also, if we're being accurate, conservatives are liberal. The systems that conservatives want to conserve are ideologically liberal, at least economically.

@@hawk5096 He's not great at reading and he is not a rocket scientist. The reason Bill is so beloved is that he knows that and acknowledges it in his comedy. If that is not for you no biggie.
@@mikehunt69981 That's partly true, but there are tons of situations where Bill reads a sentence and I immediately know what the person meant and Bill does not.
I appreciate Bill acknowledging how foul it is to cut off or abuse in any way a family member for being trans. I have a trans brother and I remember my dad's heart breaking because when he came out to us when he was 16 he said "don't worry mum and dad I know this is a lot so I've already packed my things. I'm sorry and I wish I could help it". My dad said it was the worst feeling, knowing that his child thought for a second that they could ever disown him. Wow that was long.
Anyway, that was cool of Bill.
Its so fucking depressing we live in a world where people are afraid to be who they are, and especially that their own family would ever disown them.
@@julianusvictor327 I'd hoped we'd moved past that by now but nope. Anyway it's getting better at least.
I said something similar to my Dad when I came out as a man. I had grown up listening to my Dad and his side of the family use gay and transphobic slurs my whole life. They would also add other less savory commentary on top of that. When I came out, I expected to be ousted and was expecting to just learn to live with it. My Dad was crying when he said that wasn't going to happen.
I also have a trans sibling but my parents are divorced and we lived with my mom when they came out. It’s been like 3 years since my sibling/bro-ster came out and my dad is still saying “I hope it’s just a phase.” I honestly don’t know if my dad would’ve kicked them out if we lived with him. Thankfully my mom is pretty open minded and my sibling identifying as trans helped rationalize a lot of my irrational opinions. (a lot of them that I got from my dad)
@@julianusvictor327 what makes you assume they are being who they are? It's ironic that people say "this is who I really am" even while they deny their own biology. And if it isn't in their biology, where does it come from? Their mind?
I mean, how come the argument for years and years has been that people are born gay, but yet when people are born male or female, it's not really who they are?
This all is on very shaky science to say the least.

@@seanmatthewking still. That hasn't been answered. I still don't know what is the motivation to become trans.
@@seanmatthewking to help you with your tattoo decision. For as long as it is a little thing, nothing that would change your image, get it, when you get old it's gonna be like a freckle, and your gonna have a lot, so it's not gonna matter anyway. I don't know.
I'm cisgender, but I don't think you "become" trans, you "are" trans. Just like you don't "become" gay, you 'are" gay. I don't pretend to speak for those folks, just giving my perspective.
Bill talking about people on the Right learning you can pick out a Matthew McConaughey chest is hilarious. Stephen Crowder literally just did that. Lmao
Bill is such a good dad that in his hypothetical *that’s where I draw the line* he would still visit all the time and ask within “what did I do to contribute to this happening?” What a gem.

For those who don't get it:
"I don't want to be the one guy in a traditionally female role. I'm betting his grooms men felt the same"
OP is a man. Bill was probably still seeing him as a female since he's F2M transgender that made him confused on that bit.
OP did not want to be a bridesmaid because he is a male in a females body and still feels he is not woman enough to be a bridesmaid.
OP thinks that the grooms men would've felt the same way about having to be grooms men instead of bridesmaids. Like they are not man enough to be in a male role.
“before coming out as a guy” is the key part…
I think he was more confused by the perspective changing from 3rd to first person and putting themselves into the position of the grooms trans friends. He refers to op as a man seemingly without second guessing.
this isnt reddit why r u reffering to the writer as original poster
He was describing how much he felt out of place in his female birth body with asking you to imagine having boobs and being made to wear heels.....he wanted you to imagine how out of place you would feel.
Because he in his heart was a man but was in a female body.
I'll just put here for anyone who is genuinely confused "cis" just means you identify as your sex (so if youre born male, you identify as male)... thats it XD (I do get on certain social media platforms this word is usually used in an insulting way, but it has a neutral definition)
Honestly love Bill Burr so much that he can make hilarious jokes but still be accepting of people and try to understand differences even if he does struggle with certain concepts XD
But why is that called "cis" ...sounds like an acronym
@@davidhutchinson7888 it does XD but its a prefix, so where "Trans" means change or "across" like to cross over to a new gender, the cis prefix from my understanding means "same side" so thats where the staying as your biological side may come in
@@davidhutchinson7888 cis is just a Latin root for being on the same side
@@davidhutchinson7888 cis is the prefix for cisgender (gender identity matches your sex assigned to you at birth), just like trans is short for transgender (gender identity is different from the sex assigned to you at birth). gender and sex are different. your sex is determined by your biological makeup, but your gender is like your sexuality, can’t be biologically proven, you just are what you feel you are
@@davidhutchinson7888 Cisgender has its origin in the Latin-derived prefix cis-, meaning 'on this side of', which is the opposite of trans-, meaning 'across from' or 'on the other side of'. Look it up on Wikipedia.

I think Bill just created a new segment unintentionally at the end there. This shit or that shit. Or WTF Moment.
Im not gay or anything haha but ive experienced being alienated by my family because of struggles i had with drug and alcohol addiction and not having the same religious view and having children out of wedlock. It's difficult and as a father myself whos made a lot of mistake, i still cant imagine ever turning my child away and judging them like that even if i disagreed with their lifestyle. I personally dont agree with homosexuality and transgenderism? Is that a word. Idk. But im not gonna be hateful to anyone bc like Bill said, God knows i have my own shit. Im now over a month sober and trying to become a better person alone and Bill's podcast always brings me a good laugh and lifts my spirit. He's not afraid to have his own views and make fun of everyone but he also doesnt think hes any better than anyone else. Hes learned to both embrace his flaws and work on them at the same time. Truly an inspiration. And he started out working a warehouse job like me 😆
@Jordan Wolfgram - _"...I personally dont agree with homosexuality and transgenderism?..."_ - If it's not for you/hasn't happened, yourself, don't _"do it",_ yourself - right?!
And... here's the thing; if you aren't homosexual or, transgender (they are NOT the same thing, BTW); there's nothing for you to be personally, concerned about (regarding those things), anyway.
_'If'_ I were to _'correct'_ your phrase, to mean something more, of your seeming intent; I'd say something like _"I'm not homosexual or, transgender, myself"._ - because, there isn't anything, for you to _"agree"_ with - you either is or, you ain't (or, you haven't figured it out, yet; or, can't/won't be that narrowly defined, etc).
Hopefully, I'm not just splitting hairs, as it were... words, mean things; it sounds like you're doing a great job, despite plenty of difficulties. And, as you're experiencing some of the _'joys'_ that come from... _errm_ religious, indoctrination, etc...
Allow me, please, to reverse/change some of your phrasing - so that you may better understand, the hypocrisy, of judgement on others. _"...Im not 'addicted' or anything haha but ive experienced being alienated by my family because of struggles i had with 'sexuality', 'gender-roles', 'body-dysmorphia' and not having the same religious view and not [having] children, at all..."_ (true story).
I'm not a doctor (and, I don't 'play' one on TV) - _"...Im now over a month sober and trying to become a better person alone..."_ - May I say, respectfully: there isn't anything for you to _'try to be'_ - you are 100% complete, alone and, with company (you got bigger and, older, is all), since the day you were born - sadly, you were told 'what' to believe and, 'what' to think, for all of this time; instead, learn 'how' to believe and, 'how' to think (you're working on that, now!) - What I'm trying to say is; you have _'everything'_ that you _'need'_ right now! (you just don't have a clear-view, over the heaping pile of shit, that's in front of you). You're not an accident and, you're not a mistake (or, a failure) - You're a 100% legit, this life we all share - those before us and, those who shall yet come - each moment, is a new opportunity - make your better decisions, in each moment - the next moments, will follow... Peace-
Bill is extra dyslexic in this
I dunno man I feel like he's extra dyslexic in every episode
I'm glad that he mentioned tokenism. That is a major issue on the left side
Bill with the underrated McConaughey impression.
What I have never understood is, that given how racist, transphobic and homophobic the US has been even during my lifetime, the amount of bullying and outright prejudice and aggression you must have faced if you are black, gay, or trans has to be incredible. (I suffered homophobic bullying as teenager just because people THOUGHT I was gay). I don't doubt we still have a long way to go, but I kind of expect people that have lived through this to be pretty tough. Yet the stereotype--particularly of trans people--is that they are incredibly sensitive even to the slightest "micro-aggression", like a well-intentioned person accidentally using the wrong pronoun or not knowing what "cis" means. This has never made sense to me. One explanation, judging from this letter is that maybe many transgendered are actually not ridiculously sensitive, but just want equal rights like everyone else. All this PC tip-toeing around really just makes everything worse.
To be fair i dont think you where bullied because they thought you where gay but just because you might have been slightly easier to bully then others and the insults they use dont necesarrily show their oppinions but they rather throw everything at you and take what hurt the most.
Aw man as a trans person I gotta say I'm happy he brought up the fact that transitioning isn't really an accident.
Like when you tell people you're trans it's like they think it's the first time you've thought of it 😂. Like some guy is just like "damn wearing a dress is more fun then I thought" and then some trans fairy god mother plops down and irreversibly transitions you before you've even had a chance to notice 😂😂
A trans person can be anybody and anybody gets that suddenly dressing and asking to be treated differently then people are used to seeing/treating you in your every day life will be a hard sell for everyone around you. Like this is such a wierd concept to wrap your head around if you haven't experienced it from the inside. So if you are experiencing it you try *everything* else, any way to make it work without having to commit to the bit, and only once someone has reached the point they realise this is their only option to be happy instead of miserable they go for it. The concerns people have make sense if this is the first time you're hearing about the concept but people tend to forget that trans people who live that way every day and not just when it's trendy may have already considered these issues and found a solution that works
It’s fine to sincerely and earnestly ask questions. As long as you’re not mocking people and contributing to the hate that trans people.
I understand asking questions. I don’t understand people who act like being trans is some delusion or agenda despite gender identity being acknowledged by all scientists/academics etc.
It’s not hard to wrap your head around if you’re actually curious and don’t have biases built up.
Who tf is out here mistreating gay people like this!? Jesus
I would go with the Arnold chest in Terminator 1 🤣🤣
EVERYBODY gets used by politicians. Doesn't matter the party.
Bill is a COMEDIAN. Judging by the comments, some people don't know this, or else they simply forgot.😲
I think one thing this video does wonderfully, is illustrate just how ABSOLUTELY CONFUSING all the Trans stuff is for many people. I can't follow this situation.
I have a trans sister in family. We listened and learned and we laughed together because, love wins. HMU, you or anyone else needs to understand smth about struggles or the science of trans ppl. I am always happy to help with it.
It sucks that genuinely curious people get attacked for asking an innocent question. It also sucks that the same innocent questions are also asked by trolls and transphobic people to get a rise out of people who get asked these questions all the time. Nobody really likes having to explain themselves all the time. The current political culture has made transgender people an upfront issue and that has its consequences. A good and well intentioned in person conversations are the way to go.
cis is the prefix for cisgender (gender identity matches your sex assigned to you at birth), just like trans is short for transgender (gender identity is different from the sex assigned to you at birth). gender and sex are different. your sex is determined by your biological makeup, but your gender is like your sexuality, can’t be biologically proven, you just are what you feel you are
@@sethadelmann6533 Exactly. I guess my experience has been when trying to ask questions, or being there when questions are asked, it's meet with an attack. I met a guy a couple of years ago that is not transitioning. She has stated, if anyone calls her by her old name, it's inexcusable. To me, that attitude is unacceptable. I screw up the names of my friends ALL THE TIME, right in front of them. To say that calling someone by the wrong name is inexcusable, for me means I just won't talk to you. If I make a mistake, something we all do, means you're going to rip my head off, then I won't expose myself to that situation. It shuts down communication when we probably need MORE communication.
@@cade377 Absolutely, people make mistakes and that's absolutely fine. I make mistakes with other trans people occasionally. Sometimes I even misgender myself, but this was more when I just started figuring myself out. Most people Irl are normally pretty chill about it, but you will encounter assholes. When I came out and said I was going to transition I sent out a blanket statement to everyone in my life " I will go at any pace you need, but there needs to be a pace". It has been over three years and that attitude has worked wonderfully. My Dad started out with saying he is only able to respect my decision to calling me Seth in front of his Father/ my Opa ( I think the only family member who isn't trying). Maybe he can't use my pronouns consistently yet, but the progress has been incredible and means a lot to me.
However, I do think its important to keep some things in mind. The fact that trans people are a hot topic makes things a little more emotional than it needs to be. There are some people out there with some vile things to say. I occasionally go to transphobic spaces to open up the dialogue and I often have to pretend to be cis to get people to listen to me. I one time had the experience of someone thanking me for giving them a good conversation that they could NEVER have with a trans person. This guy did open up by saying that trans people are degenerates, so I'm not surprised. I hope he did some thinking after I came out to him.
It's all so fucking tiring...

@@shanes1221 what a sad life you lead
Because there are many dimensions of government and the false dichotomy of everything being left or right is purely ignorant and reductive.
You could be left wing on social issues(liberal), then right wing on economic issues (libertarian), or the opposite (some kind of puritan anarchist/communist). It's not black and white and you should not tell yourself you belong to 1 particular party, and just assess things on their merits.
That said, the US Republican party is fucking crazy and actively working against the interests of most people and turning the US populace against itself in order to create enemies that they promise to vanquish. And the SJW/woke mob on Twitter doesn't help achieve anything more than digging the graves of their own society
That planned parenthood ad was wild.
Bill talking about dudes getting their chest done, reminded me of that episode of Family guy where Peter got liposuction done and actually went back and got his chest done.
This is just me coming from someone who is technically on the right side, I have zero hate for anyone who is transgender, gay and bi. That is a huge common misconception about us and I'm really sick and tired of it! I swear they're using it as a way to make people hate us.
While it wasn’t true a few years ago it’s great to see that the majority of Republican voters now oppose anti trans laws. However, when a lot of your most vocal politicians propose this type of legislation over and over again it’s not difficult to see why people might get the «wrong» idea. Because Republican voters continue to elect them.
@@Cenyon same exact claim can be said democratic politicians as well....my grievance comes cause this is all literally the same team[ same government same legislative system] but people want to make it out like it's two sports teams against eachother...when it's a giant group of people fighting for moral superiority to force others to do as they want as oppose to compromising with one another [which is forgotten skill now apparently] ....any laws voted in at the federal level had to be agreed by BOTH dems and repub.... so any laws the dems dont like that was voted in by a good chuck of their "side" and vice versa....lots of these guys dont read the whole Bill's either but alot politican are voting on the title bill regardless of the context because the title is what the public hear and they dont wanna be seen as the one that "voted against"
@@Dolly.956. I’m not a fan of the Democrats, but they weren’t the issue here.

Bill nailed it: “We weren’t allowed to have our WTF?!!” moment by those on the left. If you didn’t immediately accept Bruce becoming Kaitlyn (or however you spell it), you were some kind of transphobic monster. Sorry, but all of us just can’t flip a switch and become “woke” overnight. The freakin’ “what pronoun to use”, “alphabet soup acronyms that get a new letter added every month” shit takes some time to adjust to. Doesn’t mean you hate trans folks; just means that after hundreds of years of two commonly referenced genders, “gender-fluid” concepts take us a minute to grasp.
but why is it so hard to understand? It's not like you have to entirely unlearn everything you know about sex and gender. Doesn't seem that intellectually challenging to me
@Kill All White People true, a lot fail to realise transgenderism, and the seperation of sex and gender, is scientiffic and is supported by the highest scientific authorities in the relevant fields like the American Psychological Association. The outdated understanding of gender and sex being inextricable and thus gender being a binary and not a spectrum is a good example of not understanding science.
@@HingleMcCringleberryPSU : Use the wrong pronoun with someone you’ve never met before, watch them have a complete screaming public meltdown about you “assuming their gender” & then perhaps you’ll see why.
If you’re 6’ tall, muscular, with facial hair and appear to be male, and someone says: “Excuse me, sir”, why be mad just because you identify as something else? A person who doesn’t know you has no way of knowing what’s going on in your mind, and other than saying “Hey you!”, there’s no common way to address them without everyone suddenly being expected to know what ‘xyr’ means.
@@tvdavis Well that has absolutely never happened to me before, it's happened to you? I've a small number of trans friends, and they've not once corrected me (or anyone, in my company) on their pronouns in a way that resembled screaming, meltdowns, or even confrontation. Actually, I have accidentally misgendered people in public, and when it's happened I've never been confronted like it's some sort of great sin. The trans people I know aren't consumed by strangers not using their preferred pronouns. They're mostly disappointed that the scientific consensus on transgenderism isn't acknowledged. They don't care about your individual support, they just want your broad philosophical support, because there are so many people out there that just straight up deny their existence or legitimacy.
Also, are you saying that people confronting strangers for misgendering them is part of the reason why the science of transgenderism is denied? Cause that'd be insane
@@HingleMcCringleberryPSU Kindly go back and read my first post. Nowhere did I deny the science of transgenderism. I said it is difficult for people to suddenly be expected to know what to say & how to properly address people.
I’ve been mistakenly misgendered (on my birth certificate, of all places) & had to go through hell to get it corrected as an adult (apparently, the certificate they give your parents can be completely different from the “official” one the state has on file). I’ve also had people call me “sir” and I didn’t get all upset about it.
But yes, I’ve had someone wig the f*** out on me & others for calling them the “wrong” gender, and it was presented as trying to “other” them & the whole “respect trans lives!” narrative kicked in. I’m a person of color. I get that being treated as “other” hurts, but you’ve got to understand that people aren’t always trying to destroy a trans person’s life, harm them, or offend trans people & that this is a very “new” thing for a lot of people to try & navigate.
🤣🤣🤣 Dateline shit is the line.
out of curiosity if your a women and are straight then change to a man and still like men are you gay or straight?
These sorts of compilcations are part of the reason why some people who are LGBQT don't like to use labels anymore. In practice, the person would pick which ever label they wanted or none at all.
Thank you Bill for the rant against the fake allies, so relevant. Hate vs tokenism, both rooted in selfishness and ignorance

Well politicians in that case were the Nazi's :D

pretty sure this isnt bill, just a fan account, got confused myself for a lil bit too
Really couldn’t imagine my immediate family giving me an ultimatum of living a double life, with them or being myself, without them. I wouldn’t even have the strength to tell a family member that.
I’ve never loved a loved one conditionally, except for a few of my cousins😂
Who else had to get pen and paper to figure out what the fuck was going on with dude? That shit was like long division.
I feel like this guy writing in had a spot on take regarding most of the hate trans people perceive being hurled in their direction online being perhaps misinterpreted in terms of trans people not actually being the intended target of vitriol coming from parts of the straight mayonnaise cis (Billy in 21’ still like what’s that🤣) community.
I really feel like that “go fuck yourself” energy that lands on them is more aimed at the RUclips and Twitch streamers sitting behind their desktop soapbox yelling how straight people need to do this, or that or deserve to be (fill in the blank form of social/economic sanctioned) if they don’t prescribe and fall in line automatically with the most extreme of progressive stances.
In all seriousness, how’s that shit supposed to work with a guy like Bill Burr who unironically, and without any sarcasm or malice simply has not been familiarized with the term cisgender?
I’m pretty far left in both my economic and social views, so it wasn’t a huge surprise that yesterday I found myself clicking on some progressive debate video regarding some trans term I can’t remember now, but it was a word to define the disclosure of being a pre operation bottom trans person to someone who you are about to have a first time NSA sexual encounter with who might or might not know you are trans.
So, I was pretty baffled seeing the entire comments section just lit up with furious white people (the loudest of whom were 100% there to get their ally performative points, rather than actually being affected by the topic or feeling genuine anger).
They’re all going in super hard on the 2 or 3 comments that politely pointed out how like if for no other reason, maybe it’d be smart to let the guy you’re currently deepthroating know when he throws you on the bed, there might be a problem of colliding one way traffic…
All these people though, who I’m thinking now as I’m writing this must just have these takes due to being like 14 yrs old, are screaming and making sarcastic, catty replies saying shit like “jeez, you’d think these homo/transphobe CISsss white MEN would be a bit more chill seeing another cock considering how much they love playing with their own!!?!” Then a bunch of thumbs up and replies piling on “cock on cock violence”, “seeing a cock won’t be your demise”, “being exposed to unexpected penis won’t suddenly make you a gay”…
So, like the point here seems to be the underlying position with the overwhelming majority of online lefties (at minimum within the fairly large streamer’s community I say this at) all agreed upon a position that the majority of society is soooo far removed from even being able to process without reacting from an immediate viscerally negative stance.
These sorts of agreements within far left sections of vocal lefty social discourse that are completely removed from the rhetoric of everyday people seems like an immediate optics loss and to me would be a good estimate of where the actual scorn from not just alt right retards who’ve mostly faded away by this day and age, but just normal people who don’t react well to being called nazis for thinking it wouldn’t be cool to be forced into a situation where all of a sudden you are in this super uncomfortable situation with a confused, still wet with spit half hard on wondering whether you should just pretend you knew there was a meaty hog under the thong because you happen to be really bad with confrontation and hate making people feel bad about themselves. I just hope the majority of the trans community understands we don’t hate them, and we’d just appreciate a little time to get acclimated with how we need to tackle these new sexual encounters for example without hurting one another’s boners, feelings, or/and be left feeling confused about sexuality when we thought it was just the first pussy in months we were about to get.
Personally, I would happily take either without complaint after no pussy since being dumped right before the bubonic plague had us hunker down for 1.5 yrs and lose our savings/pride/confidence/ability to stay sober at 1pm…ya know…
The same way I disowned my family 😂😂😂🥴
I love how bill wont spend brainpower on most things he doesn’t immediately understand
Is Bill a pilot? Why'd he throw in a VOR reference in there?
Yeah, he pilots a helicopter
This email made no sense… We don’t understand what you’re talking about lol 🤷🏾♂️
I thought the same Bill. lmao
Bill, "cis" basically means you accept the sex that appears on the birth certificate (AKA "normal")
This is one of the most obvious instances Where Bills reading comprehension is absolute dog shit 🤣
I hate that leftists get lumped in with liberals. Liberals are closer to conservatives than leftists are too liberals, especially those on the far left (Marxists, Anarchists, etc). Plus, most leftists absolutely despise liberals, and most liberals despise leftists. Also, if we're being accurate, conservatives are liberal. The systems that conservatives want to conserve are ideologically liberal, at least economically.
Hey bill, I am a trans male. Thanks for bringing light to people like me. We are human and just want to live our life.
Are women expected to wear heals in America? I don't even seen women wearing dresses anymore.
