Lord Freeza The joke is usually 'grow some balls', who even says 'grow some testicles'? Also - Why do you follow so many trans youtubers just to hate on them. Get a hobby or something dude.
Probably horribly inappropriate, but when you said that you’re going to get implants that start tiny and gradually expand to average size, the only thing I could think was “testicular Orbeez”
I am a a man been born a boy and always been ok with that, and I am to say it is not only normal but very healthy. People place too mych negative emotions into own genitals that then result in shame and then resutl in perverssions and it goes to the psyche. You seam a good mom who does not shame own boys nor places fear on them. I know how much time it takes to heal those fear wounds and negative thougts feeling connotations, growing under shame is dying out away from life
Ellie Lowehiem she didn't say *she* was obsessed with her boys junk. Her *boys* are obsessed with it. And as the mother of 2 boys (16 & 20) I agree with her. And not to Ellie (general reply) I've had to answer the most embarrassing questions from my boys about their boys. Im so glad they left that stage of questioning lmao
Start practicing discreet ball-adjusting moves now! Seriously though I'm glad you're just about all healed. My friend's kid just came to her as trans recently and I sent her links to your vids.
Tippi B male to female is very different to the practical procedure of transformation but I understand that the emotional side is roughly similar. Unless you used the incorrect pronoun in which case I assume it wasn't intentionally meant to offend. Wish them luck all the same! 😊
Hi Jamie! I'm Sophie from Chile and in the last couple of months I have been finding myself very curious about all the trans and transition things. I'm not trans but for me, all of the trans community is such an amazing and strong people that I really enjoy and like watch videos about it or read about it. So in my very low knowledge in the subject I just find so much content about the male to female transition y just a few about the female to male transition, for that reason I started watching a lot of the male to female transition and just a few weeks ago I was like... I need to see the other side of the story and i find your channel. Jamie I'm so happy about your transition, I find that you are such a thankful person and actually very positive. I also see your relationship with your girlfriend and I find myself smiling at your countless I love you, you two are so cute! Anyway I just really feel the need to told you that thanks to your videos and anothers trans youtubers I'm now just so open and practically in love with your community, I respect you and I support you and I'm just very happy that one step at the time you are getting the life you deserve. So much love to you and your loved ones all the way form Chile!
Helena Margarita why are you here if you think that? And why do you feel need to say that? Haven’t you ever heard of the phrase “if you have nothing nice to say then don’t speak”?
haha when you said you look at your junk too much,reminds me of one of my best friends (who is also a trans guy) he said the same thing... but he likes to talk an awful lot about his junk anyway tbh bless him lmao . can't blame y'all, it's like all these years lived with basically missing a part of your body so you gotta check on it every now and then now that it's finally a part of you
Break a leg!! :) And this is fucking weird and random, but a few nights ago i dreamed i had a new boyfriend which was ftm (Never had a dream about that before) and if that's you in the photo, you look so much alike O_o Soo... yeah. * head scratch * ....Bye... * slowly moves away *
Agreed! I finally got my Top Surgery after fighting for it for 12 years (I'm 59) about 6 weeks ago, and my brother/roommate gets a kick out of my total delight of "those things are really finally gone!" It's like you want to shout it to the world and maybe (at least in my case) show off the new goods in an appropriate manner. Keep up the great vids and the good advice--we need more like you.
hey i'm 6 weeks post meta, same kind as what you had (same surgeon and hospital too lol), and your videos have been a life saver tbh. just knowing someone else has very recently been through the same stuff AND knowing that stuff does get better (i am currently still in the Everything Is Swollen and Itchy As Hell stage). anyway thank you so much for these videos :^)
As a younger trans guy, im so jealous right now. I'm still on the young side to where I cant really have T right now either. Feels like my day won't come
Skylar Jordan Welp, I'm 12. Gotta wait until I'm 16 for T (excluding the year of consultstion). Can't even go private, there's nothing available in the UK.
Hey kids! Hahaha. I'm 28 and I just had top surgery 3 months ago, and hit 1.5yrs on T about a week ago. Trust me, I know what the feeling is like when you just have to wait and wait and everyone else around you (well, that's what it seems like) is getting T and surgery and name changes and posting photos of their beards and facial changes and blahblahblah. It sucks. It totally sucks man, I'll give you that. But remember - You're so young and you already know that you're trans, you have all these resources and role models, you live in a society where it's infinitely more accepted and understood to be trans than it was, say, even 5 years ago but WAY more than like 10 or 20 years ago. So all of this is going to be so much easier and more attainable for you, *_and_* you're coming out young, so you'll get to live the vast majority of your life and your entire young adulthood as the right gender and in a body that actually feels like home. Waiting sucks, but honestly that time is gonna feel like nothing eventually and you absolutely *_will_* get there. I promise. So, take the time to just get to know yourself and really sort out what you want, your priorities, getting information, maybe even getting on some wait lists for certain things, talk to a child gender identity counselor, get all that shit documented - This'll make it 1000x easier to move forward with actual medical transition when you're old enough, and if you've been on a wait list that's, eg, 18 months, you don't wanna get on that list when you're old enough to get the thing that wait is for, nah, you're already waiting anyway so have them overlap, know what I mean? Then by the time you're 16/18/however old you need to be for whatever, you could have a month's wait rather than a year and a half. But most importantly, don't compare yourself to other people - Compare yourself to yourself over time, and watch your own progress and be happy about it, coz trying to compare yourself to people at totally different life stages let alone transition stages is just gonna make you feel like shit. Anyway, I just wanted to jump in and say hey, I get it, I waited 26 years 😂 It's frustrating when you're still trying to get the ball rolling or you just have to wait before you can even do that, but once things actually do start happening it's like woah holy shit all this stuff is happening, and happening *_fast_* dude!! So don't be in a rush, just take it all as part of the journey you're on, try not to let it get you down, because eventually, it's going to have been a huge advantage for you and you'll be so happy about it. Any of you on puberty blockers? God I wish those were around when I was a teen, haha. Time flies man, it really does, so just keep on going, do your thing, live your life, and all the other stuff will happen before you know it. All the best!
Okay here's my background story or whatever you'd like to call it. When I was 4, I started figuring out what gender was, and I was like, well I feel like im a boy but I must be a girl because my family says so. Time went by and I hit 7 years old, I fooled around online (I was a smart child) found the term transgender, then it hit me. I am a boy afterall, and im just told I'm a girl, okay I can fix that later down the road. 7 years old, I chose my name, and I havent changed it since, so here's me, Skylar Jordan. Here I am now, 2 days from my 13th birthday, I have my hair cut short now, and I have gender neutral clothing. Sadly, I am not on blockers, estrogen blockers wouldn't do anything but stop menstrual cycles for me. Puberty hit me LONG ago. I don't have a binder either (unsupportive parents, yay) which, binders are uncomfortable anyway but I have a huge chest, a 38DD, so I'm always read as female. It's hard to wait, I see all these other transgender men starting their testosterone, getting their surgeries, and name change, and I'm just here, no binder, packer, or even one supportive person in my life.
I am happy for you man. I am currently in the process of starting to prep for my 1st stage in my bottom surgery and I am super excited and seeing a video of someone like me makes me more excited to have more knowledge and excited on my decision
You wouldn't be boring us with 'penis talk', you're teaching those of us who are considering getting bottom surgery from a personal standpoint and I commend you for it! Much love to you and Shaaba
I don't have too much dysphoria about my downstairs because im not dating or anything and it's not too noticable. But the sooner my voice drops and I can get top surgery the better. It really gets me down sometimes but if I save up I should be able to afford it on the NHS. 😁😁
Alphabetical Order yeah same cause like I don’t know it’s there constantly unlike the dreaded breasticles. Guess dysphoria just challenges other people in different ways
Unpopular opinion alert but... please consider these surgeries long and hard! It is. Such a a huge dramatic change for the body.. and research has shown that people can get highly depressed after going through with all of the surgeries. I’m just a strong advocate for mental health. I think it’s soooo important to handle gender identities with our mental state being the first priority on the list! I’ve heard a lot about people realizing they wished they had just accepted themselves without surgery. Because changing your gender through surgery isn’t as easily accomplished as it’s made out to be... there’s going to be maintenance on that for. The. Rest. Of. Your. Life. Hormones that will become less effective over time(usually after about ten years). Etc. and at the end of it these are just aesthetic and you are aware of that. Subconsciously or in the forefront of your mind. And none of those things really matter anyways! It’s just acceptance that this is who you are. It’s not perfect, but no human being is. And please just try to understand, this is my way of trying to support the trans community. I know it might not seem that way because people think surgery is the solution here. But it is not! When dealing in mental health, physical changes are never the answer! You can always decide later that you want bottom surgery, but once you go through with it there will be no going back. And bottom surgery does not compare to your original functioning body! It may not be the body that matches your mind, but it is still healthy, and will have the best chance of protecting you! I don’t want to keep going on as I think I’m rambling a bit.. it’s early for me. I just strongly encourage you take all the time you can to contemplate this! And my honest opinion is that hormones themselves can do wonders for a person! With no irreversible changes.
@@heatherbutler7635 Feeling depressed is a bodily reaction to surgery, not regret or anything. It happens with a lot of surgeries. You can be more than 100% happy with the result and never ever regret it, but feel highly depressed right after the surgery because of the surgery and not because of what changed and not because it was the wrong decision for you.
A non-representative survey among me and my mates comfirms that it feels really nice and soothing to simply let your hand rest on or near your junk when you're sitting in front of the TV or reading or just chilling. Who else agrees?
Your updates have helped me tremendously when it comes to the surgery. So thank you. You have not shared too much, I would love it if you share even more.
I have had 4 surgeries in the last 6 years... I can absolutely relate to how awful recovering from surgeries is . I also had to have a second surgery due to complication. It was a breast reduction (which us pretty much the same procedure as top surgery but I just keep a good portion of the breast) and eye surgery and an emergency appendectomy. all of which suuuucked. I am not a fan. haha. so I'm so happy you've " healed beautifully " . I was so suprised that my body can just heal like that too.
You are awesome, man! I can't lie, watching you talk about your junk made me smile, a whole lot. I'm not a father, I don't know if I ever will be, but I felt a sense of how happy a dad might feel knowing that his son is happy and satisfied with "himself". Society places a lot of unreasonable expectations on what the ideal man's "business" ought to be. But here I am, a single 28 year old man, having dad feelings! I'm so glad you like what you've got! "Becoming a man" happens in many different ways, obviously; but, I'm especially happy to witness how happy you are, it's very, very inspiring.
I LOVE how you talk about it.... I know that you feel vulnerable but the way you talk about it makes it so easy to understand and I can imagine it makes easier for people going through something similar to accept it and be proud of it. You are doing it great! 💜
You dont talk too much about your peen. Videos like those give me so much hope and strength for the path I started one week ago so please dont overthink your peen talking, it really helps! Thank you for all your videos Jamie! Loads and loads of love
I've watched many of your videos and I have to say I take my hat off to you, it's a journey that you've shared with so many including the good parts of the bad parts. very well informative with a great deal of passion well done! You should feel very proud of yourself you look a very handsome young man. Wishing you you lots of joy and happiness in all that you do. God Bless x
I think you are super brave. I'm a cis woman who is having a much more minor procedure done on my uterus soon and, to be honest, I am terrified! I can't imagine having the guts to go through a whole transition. I mean, a biopsy hurt enough! So... congrats on being brave enough to go through all of this.
I can’t believe it’s been 3 months since I got to know and love you and Shaaba! I found your channels while you were hospitalized and I felt like I learned so much that it changed me. I have always felt so educated and open minded but the reality is I didn’t even realize I was ignorant to trans issues until I went on this voyage with you and Shaaba. I mean you don’t know what you don’t know until you’re willing to know it. Um, if that made sense. LOL. Blessings and health to you both! 🍄🎈💕⭐️
Kate B you have to go out and do research in order to be educated on something. By watching these videos and others like it that is part of research! Now for next time a huge subject comes up you can remember this! Especially with something that can be so controversial it is SOOO important to look into it on your own. From all points of view. Yes I mean negative ones too! And those can be harder to swallow. The only way to know, really know, is to understand the view people have. Why they think what they think and what they have to back it up. Congratulations on doing research 🎉🎊🍾 I hope you were able to find answers you didn’t even know you were looking for!
I just found your channel today and I’m so happy that I did. You are so brave, strong and just badass! Thank you for sharing your story! I wish you and your fiancé all the happiness in the world ❤️
I would dare to make a hypothesis that because some culture pushes seem to say being female is bad, or worse. A male supremacist type of left over. And it makes sence to see the mtf be attacked more... not that I'm saying its good. Any and all transphobia is terrible. But this is just a hypothesis
I don't know, while this as I hope we both know is not even a tiny bit true, maybe they think of MTF women as perverts or something. I've seen that happen, so maybe it's more common than I have seen.
I think that people maybe accept more easy that a girl became a man than a man become a girl because in our society people wants a man to bé masculine , dont cry and all those bullshits , in short people wants the boy to dont have any link with a "girl behavior" So thé fact that a man become a girl maybe mind more than a girl becoming a boy I mean that's the reason why i think there's more hate on MTF than FTM If i should make an example : people will dont Say a thing about a girl wearing a pant but will make all a drama about a boy wearing a dress , you see the thing ?
It is so nice to see you so happy. Makes me so happy for and with you. I have had a lot of reconstruction surgery after a bashing. I couldn’t het implants myself but I was tole it is very simple and painless. I enjoyed that you are comfortable looking at yourself. That’s great!
Two things: your accent is everything. And also, thank you for this video because I am going through the process of finding a counselor that will see me through transitioning. I am in the very very very beginning processes.
You deserve to be able to look at your new junk, you have been through alot to get that junk so be proud and look as much as you like and be proud of that.
I commented already this morning on the first video I found of yours this morning but I failed to say this that I was also thinking. I was thinking as I listened to your voice and watched you, If I just happened to meet you on the street I would never have guessed that you had once been a female. . You look fabulous and I am so happy that you are feeling better. I am so happy that you are happy.
You and Shaaba are so beautiful inside and out. Found you through your sims video and thought you were so adorable I wanted to check out your other vids. Didn't even realise you were trans but your open and honest approach to it all must be doing so much good for people who probably really need it. So I just wanted to share back some positivity with you 😊.
Congratulations! It’s wonderful that everything is going along as it should for you. 😎 Thank you for being so candid with yourself. It has meant a lot to me to hear your updates. I hope the progress of your healing and future surgery will be smooth and as pain free as possible 🙂 Best of luck! & I hope you continue to enjoy your life to the fullest everyday! ✌️❤️🌈😎⭐️
Glad it is all going smoothly now! After my boyfriend had an accident last fall, he had to have reconstructive facial surgery. The numbness was by far the last thing to go away. It was a little scary because the surgeon had said the numbness was caused by swelling and it was still numb after it seemed like all of the swelling was gone. But it's all good now. Very different surgery, but that's my anecdote if it helps comfort anybody.
wow, you are awesome mate. I am born a boy man with passion in recovering trauma from childhood of effects of parents or societal conditioning, working with shame in bodies is something that is part of my training. I am to tell you that it is absolutely freaking healthy to be obsessed with own junk...it is not when it has been shamed and made forbidden then it turns to perverssion, but I know when i started removing acestral guilt over my sexual feelings, ancestral shame of own sexual energy and my own penis that I love now, removing all the religious conditioning and shaming...recovering basically it all and seeing the healthy developement of children and observing when and hopw they get broken in this are has been an amazing journy for me, probably with many similiarities os of someone transgender uncovering own true self, in this case it has been uncovering me in my own body as a boy as a man from under the generationally passed trauma shaming bashing and guilt. My first bioenergetic teacher I look up to has came out with being a transgender woman in 2015 and that has been a turning point for me in my life. It was a shock and made me see so much of how i did not love myself as a boy even though I was born a boy. I seen so much shame and prejudice through the example of my teacher just by accepting the fact she was not a man but a transgender woman. That was a life changer for me. Long time I weressled with accepting it all but eventually I seen how me having any difficulty in accepting different sexual orientation and transgender had to do with me having not received loved that i needed as a boy when i was little and developing real self rejection and hatred. I then realized through my mentor who after two years of connection came out as trangender making me mourn the loss of the brother I thought I found and open to existance of a newbrilliant female, I realized that the journy of transgender man has vey similarities to a journy of coming out of trauma and abuse and self rejection and clinical depression or state of psychotic breakdown that doctors till this date say is not curable. IN last 3 years I changed as a man, the more i was opening to others breking through my prejudice seeing it was just fear and not being in my own body, not breathing poroperly having had reasons in my thought system as a virus of having to reject myself and remove myself in life, having been castrated this way. I am so very greatfull for transgender people the journey of self love that they show to the world and that you helped me to keep belief in my own self appreciate and love my own body and be a sex and fun loving man also someone who has gotten a new chance in life and new passion and potential carieere in field of working with the body in this revolutionary self loving core energetic qunatum like way of regaining connection with true self life of plesure and not driven by shame. All the best to you.
Hearing that you didn't have urethral lengthening, but you still had to wear a catheter for so long, is making me lean even more towards not having bottom surgery. I will wait until I've been on T for awhile before coming to any firm conclusion though (I'm still pre-T ... I have my first appointment with an endocrinologist this coming June).
The fact that your testicles are growing seems to me that it's like you're experiencing puberty as a male. That can only be a good thing. Keep posting, keep being the incredible man you are.
Well, the thumbnail was a bungee-neck moment for me, but it was at least a good indication that the surgery went well! Which I'm very glad about. 😊 Hope you're very soon pain-free!
Jamie, why did you cut your hair?? You look 🔥Seriously I'm actually upset 😕 No, you can do whatever you want with your hair obviously and I'm just a very weird person. But dam! Just discovered your channel, cis female and engaged. Realised I was ignorant of trans issues, and that's not the person I want to be. You look so happy in this video.😊 Glad everything went well x
Your videos are so helpful and I'm very happy for you! I came out to my mom a little while ago so still trying to help her understand and hopefully let me start hormones... Anyways have a wonderful day love
"Grow some balls!"
Jamie: I am 4 parallel universes ahead of you
So whenever some jerk tells you to 'grow a pair!' you can say 'I already have!'
100th like!
Haha
Lmaooooo
Bryn Jackson well not recall grew more like had plastic surgery to mimic testicles..
Lord Freeza The joke is usually 'grow some balls', who even says 'grow some testicles'? Also - Why do you follow so many trans youtubers just to hate on them. Get a hobby or something dude.
Sorry dude, I looked but couldn't find a "Congratulations on your testicles" card for you.
Lcra arcl same
Maybe a card that says "HAVE A BALL" then just edit as necessary for plural...
Get an 'It's A Boy!' card and use a Sharpie to change it to 'balls!' lmao
I think this ecard would work! www.jacquielawson.com/ecard/view/seb2e85a75de04e21a36b94cca5e27a8c?ob=1

i fucking hate you!!!! XD
Omg yeah same.
Taking "Grow a pair" to a whole new meaning
xD
I'm a mom of two boys...junk obsession is definitely a normal thing.
Kas M so funny
I am a a man been born a boy and always been ok with that, and I am to say it is not only normal but very healthy.

You shouldn't be obsessing over your kids junk.

Christopher Steve hmm penis, balls, beard, all the other male things.. he’s a boy ;)
Glad you can finally sit Jamie! Happy 3 months to your junk! I'm glad the nasty bits are past now.
"Expanding balls."
*Foresees Jamie no longer sitting on the yellow chair and instead sitting on an "exercise ball."*
“Healed beautifully” 👏🏾👏🏾😂👌🏾 glad to hear you are doing.
Start practicing discreet ball-adjusting moves now! Seriously though I'm glad you're just about all healed. My friend's kid just came to her as trans recently and I sent her links to your vids.
Why be discreet? I haven't met a man who was! LOL
Tippi B male to female is very different to the practical procedure of transformation but I understand that the emotional side is roughly similar. Unless you used the incorrect pronoun in which case I assume it wasn't intentionally meant to offend. Wish them luck all the same! 😊
The "her" pronoun refers to my friend, the mom. I would have referred to her kid, her son, as him.
when I transition I'm gonna try the ole pocket trick
oh and also link her to undercaseCHASE1 trans 101 and other videos. he is VERY helpful

Hey it's okay to keep looking at your junk. It's new and more you and cool! Be proud of the peen!

Hey, that's awesome! So glad my videos could help out, good luck with the rest of healing :D
@@Jammidodgeryes! You’re helping me too!
You are a huge inspiration when I came out to my mom I showed her your videos which helped her a lot with the whole thing

So don't be in a rush, just take it all as part of the journey you're on, try not to let it get you down, because eventually, it's going to have been a huge advantage for you and you'll be so happy about it. Any of you on puberty blockers? God I wish those were around when I was a teen, haha. Time flies man, it really does, so just keep on going, do your thing, live your life, and all the other stuff will happen before you know it. All the best!
Okay here's my background story or whatever you'd like to call it. When I was 4, I started figuring out what gender was, and I was like, well I feel like im a boy but I must be a girl because my family says so. Time went by and I hit 7 years old, I fooled around online (I was a smart child) found the term transgender, then it hit me. I am a boy afterall, and im just told I'm a girl, okay I can fix that later down the road. 7 years old, I chose my name, and I havent changed it since, so here's me, Skylar Jordan. Here I am now, 2 days from my 13th birthday, I have my hair cut short now, and I have gender neutral clothing. Sadly, I am not on blockers, estrogen blockers wouldn't do anything but stop menstrual cycles for me. Puberty hit me LONG ago. I don't have a binder either (unsupportive parents, yay) which, binders are uncomfortable anyway but I have a huge chest, a 38DD, so I'm always read as female. It's hard to wait, I see all these other transgender men starting their testosterone, getting their surgeries, and name change, and I'm just here, no binder, packer, or even one supportive person in my life.
Skylar Jordan I’m sorry 😐
I am happy for you man. I am currently in the process of starting to prep for my 1st stage in my bottom surgery and I am super excited and seeing a video of someone like me makes me more excited to have more knowledge and excited on my decision
I love how honest you are. It's so refreshing. I wish you nothing but the very best.
Dang Jammie youre so handsome!!! You remind me of Flynn Rider :0
You wouldn't be boring us with 'penis talk', you're teaching those of us who are considering getting bottom surgery from a personal standpoint and I commend you for it! Much love to you and Shaaba
Journey to balls is an incredible book title!
"i'm growing my own balls" you do you xD
Flower Flower no but boys can
I don't have too much dysphoria about my downstairs because im not dating or anything and it's not too noticable. But the sooner my voice drops and I can get top surgery the better. It really gets me down sometimes but if I save up I should be able to afford it on the NHS. 😁😁
Alphabetical Order yeah same cause like I don’t know it’s there constantly unlike the dreaded breasticles. Guess dysphoria just challenges other people in different ways
Alphabetical Order Dysphoria does duck, but keep going it'll be worth it! And T and top surgery are free on the nhs!
Unpopular opinion alert but... please consider these surgeries long and hard! It is. Such a a huge dramatic change for the body.. and research has shown that people can get highly depressed after going through with all of the surgeries.
I’m just a strong advocate for mental health. I think it’s soooo important to handle gender identities with our mental state being the first priority on the list! I’ve heard a lot about people realizing they wished they had just accepted themselves without surgery. Because changing your gender through surgery isn’t as easily accomplished as it’s made out to be... there’s going to be maintenance on that for. The. Rest. Of. Your. Life. Hormones that will become less effective over time(usually after about ten years). Etc. and at the end of it these are just aesthetic and you are aware of that. Subconsciously or in the forefront of your mind. And none of those things really matter anyways! It’s just acceptance that this is who you are. It’s not perfect, but no human being is.
And please just try to understand, this is my way of trying to support the trans community. I know it might not seem that way because people think surgery is the solution here. But it is not! When dealing in mental health, physical changes are never the answer! You can always decide later that you want bottom surgery, but once you go through with it there will be no going back. And bottom surgery does not compare to your original functioning body! It may not be the body that matches your mind, but it is still healthy, and will have the best chance of protecting you!
I don’t want to keep going on as I think I’m rambling a bit.. it’s early for me. I just strongly encourage you take all the time you can to contemplate this! And my honest opinion is that hormones themselves can do wonders for a person! With no irreversible changes.
Jamie seems pretty happy with it.
@@heatherbutler7635 Feeling depressed is a bodily reaction to surgery, not regret or anything. It happens with a lot of surgeries. You can be more than 100% happy with the result and never ever regret it, but feel highly depressed right after the surgery because of the surgery and not because of what changed and not because it was the wrong decision for you.
I know this is two years old but you look so happy in this video my heart just completely melt
I just cannot imagine you as a girl. You are a man. Always meant to be a male. Congrats on this surgery. You are brave
A non-representative survey among me and my mates comfirms that it feels really nice and soothing to simply let your hand rest on or near your junk when you're sitting in front of the TV or reading or just chilling. Who else agrees?
Your updates have helped me tremendously when it comes to the surgery. So thank you. You have not shared too much, I would love it if you share even more.
I have had 4 surgeries in the last 6 years... I can absolutely relate to how awful recovering from surgeries is . I also had to have a second surgery due to complication. It was a breast reduction (which us pretty much the same procedure as top surgery but I just keep a good portion of the breast) and eye surgery and an emergency appendectomy. all of which suuuucked. I am not a fan. haha. so I'm so happy you've " healed beautifully " . I was so suprised that my body can just heal like that too.
You are awesome, man!
I can't lie, watching you talk about your junk made me smile, a whole lot. I'm not a father, I don't know if I ever will be, but I felt a sense of how happy a dad might feel knowing that his son is happy and satisfied with "himself". Society places a lot of unreasonable expectations on what the ideal man's "business" ought to be. But here I am, a single 28 year old man, having dad feelings! I'm so glad you like what you've got! "Becoming a man" happens in many different ways, obviously; but, I'm especially happy to witness how happy you are, it's very, very inspiring.
Honestly it feels like you got surgery like a week ago
M. Irrelevant .....
I LOVE how you talk about it.... I know that you feel vulnerable but the way you talk about it makes it so easy to understand and I can imagine it makes easier for people going through something similar to accept it and be proud of it. You are doing it great! 💜
You dont talk too much about your peen. Videos like those give me so much hope and strength for the path I started one week ago so please dont overthink your peen talking, it really helps! Thank you for all your videos Jamie! Loads and loads of love
So happy you're happy. This is such an amazing journey you're going on. PS you're looking really good in this video
I've watched many of your videos and I have to say I take my hat off to you, it's a journey that you've shared with so many including the good parts of the bad parts. very well informative with a great deal of passion well done! You should feel very proud of yourself you look a very handsome young man.
Wishing you you lots of joy and happiness in all that you do.
God Bless x
I think you are super brave. I'm a cis woman who is having a much more minor procedure done on my uterus soon and, to be honest, I am terrified! I can't imagine having the guts to go through a whole transition. I mean, a biopsy hurt enough! So... congrats on being brave enough to go through all of this.
I only recently found your channel but I’m already so proud and happy for you!
woah it has been 3 months already? time flies man It seems like just yesterday i was watching your surgery vlog but congrats !
I’m really happy for you, man. You’re an inspiration to us all. Good luck with everything ✌🏼
Seeing you so happy about this all warms my heart I love this so much!
I just find your channel and now you’re my favorite internet person 🙌🏼
I can’t stop smiling I’m so happy for you 💜
I can’t believe it’s been 3 months since I got to know and love you and Shaaba! I found your channels while you were hospitalized and I felt like I learned so much that it changed me. I have always felt so educated and open minded but the reality is I didn’t even realize I was ignorant to trans issues until I went on this voyage with you and Shaaba. I mean you don’t know what you don’t know until you’re willing to know it. Um, if that made sense. LOL. Blessings and health to you both! 🍄🎈💕⭐️
Kate B you have to go out and do research in order to be educated on something. By watching these videos and others like it that is part of research!
Now for next time a huge subject comes up you can remember this! Especially with something that can be so controversial it is SOOO important to look into it on your own. From all points of view. Yes I mean negative ones too! And those can be harder to swallow. The only way to know, really know, is to understand the view people have. Why they think what they think and what they have to back it up.
Congratulations on doing research 🎉🎊🍾 I hope you were able to find answers you didn’t even know you were looking for!
I’m so happy everything has been going well! Your videos give me so much hope :)
This is so awesome to see, I'm so glad you're feeling overall better now!
Technological and medical advancements are honestly crazy and I’m so glad you’re happy.
I’ve been following you for so long and I’m so so happy to see you so happy 😀Congrats man!
I just found your channel today and I’m so happy that I did. You are so brave, strong and just badass! Thank you for sharing your story! I wish you and your fiancé all the happiness in the world ❤️
Happy you’re happy with your progress! ❤️
I'm glad for you.
Has anyone noticed there's way more hate on MTF trans channels vs FTM ones?
IS that a thing, or just my sample bias?
I would dare to make a hypothesis that because some culture pushes seem to say being female is bad, or worse. A male supremacist type of left over. And it makes sence to see the mtf be attacked more... not that I'm saying its good. Any and all transphobia is terrible. But this is just a hypothesis
I don't know, while this as I hope we both know is not even a tiny bit true, maybe they think of MTF women as perverts or something. I've seen that happen, so maybe it's more common than I have seen.
I think that people maybe accept more easy that a girl became a man than a man become a girl because in our society people wants a man to bé masculine , dont cry and all those bullshits , in short people wants the boy to dont have any link with a "girl behavior"
So thé fact that a man become a girl maybe mind more than a girl becoming a boy
I mean that's the reason why i think there's more hate on MTF than FTM
If i should make an example : people will dont Say a thing about a girl wearing a pant but will make all a drama about a boy wearing a dress , you see the thing ?
I am so happy for you!! I can't wait until I am old enough to get bottom surgery! Lucky you, and good luck with your upcoming surgery! Go Jamie!
It is so nice to see you so happy. Makes me so happy for and with you. I have had a lot of reconstruction surgery after a bashing. I couldn’t het implants myself but I was tole it is very simple and painless. I enjoyed that you are comfortable looking at yourself. That’s great!
Love how happy you are here!
Two things: your accent is everything. And also, thank you for this video because I am going through the process of finding a counselor that will see me through transitioning. I am in the very very very beginning processes.
Just found your channel and I’m so pleased you’re pleased- your videos are very informative and you will be such a treasure for trans kids coming out
You deserve to be able to look at your new junk, you have been through alot to get that junk so be proud and look as much as you like and be proud of that.
I commented already this morning on the first video I found of yours this morning but I failed to say this that I was also thinking. I was thinking as I listened to your voice and watched you, If I just happened to meet you on the street I would never have guessed that you had once been a female. . You look fabulous and I am so happy that you are feeling better. I am so happy that you are happy.
I'm glad there are surgeries out there so people can be themselves... So awesome!
Nessava isn't having cosmetic surgery so you can change how you look the opposite of "being yourself" ???
I think it's great that you're sharing your journey Jamie! You're an awesome guy :)
I’m so happy for you. Seeing the joy in which speak about experience is wonderful ♥️. Much love to you and your lovely fiancé.
So glad to hear everything has gone so well ! Yayyyy super happy for you
So glad to know you're doing so well!
Congrats, and thank you!! You are answering so many questions for people seeking knowledge. Bless you 💕💕
You and Shaaba are so beautiful inside and out. Found you through your sims video and thought you were so adorable I wanted to check out your other vids. Didn't even realise you were trans but your open and honest approach to it all must be doing so much good for people who probably really need it. So I just wanted to share back some positivity with you 😊.
So happy you are healed. So happy you are feeling more and more like "you". Best wishes!
You're so educational!!!! New favorite channel!
Im soooo pleased you are all ok and deffo no more complications you have been through so much and now can enjoy life x
I’m happy for you Jamie! Be happy and your true self! I love your videos and channel.

Thank you for sharing so much of your journey here. I learn so so much from every video I watch about your experience.
Congratulations! It’s wonderful that everything is going along as it should for you. 😎 Thank you for being so candid with yourself. It has meant a lot to me to hear your updates. I hope the progress of your healing and future surgery will be smooth and as pain free as possible 🙂 Best of luck! & I hope you continue to enjoy your life to the fullest everyday! ✌️❤️🌈😎⭐️
I just found your youtube channel but your happiness just makes me so happy I'm so happy for you LOL Keep up the great work, subscribed!
Glad it is all going smoothly now! After my boyfriend had an accident last fall, he had to have reconstructive facial surgery. The numbness was by far the last thing to go away. It was a little scary because the surgeon had said the numbness was caused by swelling and it was still numb after it seemed like all of the swelling was gone. But it's all good now. Very different surgery, but that's my anecdote if it helps comfort anybody.
What a difficult life. A lot of suffering. I'm proud of your courage and I feel for you and support you.
Sarcasm?
you're so handsome!!! I wish you tons of happiness
wow, you are awesome mate. I am born a boy man with passion in recovering trauma from childhood of effects of parents or societal conditioning, working with shame in bodies is something that is part of my training. I am to tell you that it is absolutely freaking healthy to be obsessed with own junk...it is not when it has been shamed and made forbidden then it turns to perverssion, but I know when i started removing acestral guilt over my sexual feelings, ancestral shame of own sexual energy and my own penis that I love now, removing all the religious conditioning and shaming...recovering basically it all and seeing the healthy developement of children and observing when and hopw they get broken in this are has been an amazing journy for me, probably with many similiarities os of someone transgender uncovering own true self, in this case it has been uncovering me in my own body as a boy as a man from under the generationally passed trauma shaming bashing and guilt. My first bioenergetic teacher I look up to has came out with being a transgender woman in 2015 and that has been a turning point for me in my life. It was a shock and made me see so much of how i did not love myself as a boy even though I was born a boy. I seen so much shame and prejudice through the example of my teacher just by accepting the fact she was not a man but a transgender woman. That was a life changer for me. Long time I weressled with accepting it all but eventually I seen how me having any difficulty in accepting different sexual orientation and transgender had to do with me having not received loved that i needed as a boy when i was little and developing real self rejection and hatred. I then realized through my mentor who after two years of connection came out as trangender making me mourn the loss of the brother I thought I found and open to existance of a newbrilliant female, I realized that the journy of transgender man has vey similarities to a journy of coming out of trauma and abuse and self rejection and clinical depression or state of psychotic breakdown that doctors till this date say is not curable. IN last 3 years I changed as a man, the more i was opening to others breking through my prejudice seeing it was just fear and not being in my own body, not breathing poroperly having had reasons in my thought system as a virus of having to reject myself and remove myself in life, having been castrated this way. I am so very greatfull for transgender people the journey of self love that they show to the world and that you helped me to keep belief in my own self appreciate and love my own body and be a sex and fun loving man also someone who has gotten a new chance in life and new passion and potential carieere in field of working with the body in this revolutionary self loving core energetic qunatum like way of regaining connection with true self life of plesure and not driven by shame. All the best to you.
So happy for you Jamie, I;m glad everything has worked out for you!
You are so adorable, and you look so incredibly happy. Congratulations!
"Journey to Balls" sounds like an epic fantasy novel/movie!
Congrats jammie!! I'm glad you're happy with your surgery!!
Hey! Congrats! You look so happy, I'm glad everything turned out for the best x
Glad you are happy with the results, nothing worse than buyers remorse with surgery.
Hearing that you didn't have urethral lengthening, but you still had to wear a catheter for so long, is making me lean even more towards not having bottom surgery. I will wait until I've been on T for awhile before coming to any firm conclusion though (I'm still pre-T ... I have my first appointment with an endocrinologist this coming June).
Watched your journey and i am so happy for you! This was the right decision for you. You make a cute man and i wish you much happiness.
David.
your vids are sooo refreshing. much love
I'm glad to hear everything's going so well in the junk department.
I’m happy for you Jamie!!
So glad to see you healing better and better:)
The fact that your testicles are growing seems to me that it's like you're experiencing puberty as a male. That can only be a good thing. Keep posting, keep being the incredible man you are.
Well, the thumbnail was a bungee-neck moment for me, but it was at least a good indication that the surgery went well! Which I'm very glad about. 😊 Hope you're very soon pain-free!
Jamie, why did you cut your hair?? You look 🔥Seriously I'm actually upset 😕 No, you can do whatever you want with your hair obviously and I'm just a very weird person. But dam!
Just discovered your channel, cis female and engaged. Realised I was ignorant of trans issues, and that's not the person I want to be.
You look so happy in this video.😊 Glad everything went well x
Love your shirt today king! Great video hope that stage 2 goes well for you :)
GRATS!!! I'm so happy that it healed so easily for you and there were no complications ^_^
Congrats on your 3 month surgery anniversary! 😊
I'm so happy for you!!
"peen healing abilities" I love it
So happy for you Jamie! 💜💜💜
Your videos are so helpful and I'm very happy for you! I came out to my mom a little while ago so still trying to help her understand and hopefully let me start hormones...
Anyways have a wonderful day love
3:01 Hey now if anyone ever tells you to grow a pair you’ll have the absolute best comeback!
It was good to hear how your surgery went and also how you blogged after your surgery
this is very useful thank u
