  • Hello!
    I apologize for my awkward start, but this is something new, as I record myself transition, and that hopefully this will be the start of something great! c:
    Transcript:
    Hey guys, my name is Nicki, I am a 20 year old transgender male, I am female to male.
    And I wanted to make this blog, type thingy, I don't know what I'm going to call it, but it's the start of something (laughs).
    And I wanted to allow myself to record my progress and my transition, and allow myself to be raw and expose myself, in terms of, what it means, for myself, to be transgender and to transition. And I want to provide this as a resource for others that may be questioning, may be trans themselves, or maybe they're just might be curious about the topic. I just kind of want to allow my perspective to used as a resource.
    Umm
    I have several reasons why I also wanted to start this.
    One of them is a lot of--- when I was younger, when I first started questioning myself, and I first came out as trans... When I would research transgender people, especially female to male, I would see a lot of progress videos, I wouldn't necessarily see in-depth transitioning, which means like-- how and when did they knew, how did they find that information, what were their resources, how did they get help, and what have they done since, and all that stuff.
    And, I never really felt like they would talk a lot about their lives, that are also affected--- that could be a privacy thing, but for me, I'm just going to put that out there.
    I also want to allow myself to talk about what it means to transition, not only yourself, but those around you, your family, your peers, your friends , your colleagues, your significant other, your pets (laughs), who knows? It's not only you that's affected, and it's not only you that's changing, but your whole life around you is changing, and I want to offer that.
    And, maybe help you get an idea of what it means to transition and all that fun stuff (laughs).
    But another main thing for me, a lot of time, especially when go onto RUclips or Facebook, there's no connection for me, in terms of, being able to fully connect to the person that made that video-- like for example, I would be able to connect to them on the level of, "oh yeah you're trans too, and I struggle with gender dysphoria, oh, I struggle with passing sometimes" and all that stuff.
    But for me, it was never a deeper connection than that, it was hard for me because--- Yes, I identify as trans, but it's not the only--- it's not the sole reason that I identify myself as. I have a lot of identities to myself. I am Korean, I am adopted, I am disabled, I am Deaf, and it was hard for me to find people, especially Deaf and those that are disabled or handicapped, and seeing them transitioning. It was mostly a white person, and they're perfectly healthy and normal, and it was hard for me to connect on that kind of level.
    And I want to show others that there are people that are like me, and that breaks the image of the stereotypical trans person and that they also, they can also be trans. I hope that whoever is watching this, if you're not the stereotypical trans person, this will help you see that you're not the only one. And hopefully, that you can be able to, you're encouraged to start your own journey.
    So yeah... I hope that this will be the start of something--- My next video will talk about my origin story, even though I really don't have much of an origin story. I will talk about how I found that I was trans, what resources did I have, how did I come out, and all that fun stuff.
    So my next video will probably be a little bit long, but I hope you guys will watch it, and I hope you guys will support me, and yeah..
    Yeah, so I guess this is the start of something good, and I hope that you guys will continue to support me, as I will you, and yeah... (laughs)
    I'm a little bit awkward at this, but I promise that I'll warm up to this. Yeah so... Alright, I guess I'll talk to you guys on my next video, so.. yeah alright. (waves)
    Thank you for watching, and I guess I'll see you on my next one. (Smile)
