Katie please don’t give up. There’s plenty of surgeries to help with transition. I know it’s expensive and hard work but you’ll get there. You can achieve whatever you set your mind to. Don’t listen to people’s negativity. You have a beautiful soul. Xxx
Thank you so much for watching my video and for your lovely, positive words of support and encouragement. You have a beautiful soul and you are a wonderful, caring person. Sending you lots of love. xxx
Hi Saskia, Thank you so much for the lovely feedback and kind wishes. Thank you for watching my video and for subscribing. Hope that all is well with you too. Best wishes and stay safe. love, Katie. xxx
Katie, your not that old, its all how you feel inside. I will be 50 next March and i still hang out with young people and guys of all ages ask me out for a beer and fun. So you know the old saying...your only as old as you feel. :)-
You need to stop hating your maleness. You had absolutely no choice in the matter and it never goes away, no matter what hormones or surgeries you might have.
@@katie2858 well thank you for putting yourself out there and being so open and honest. that takes real guts. you seem like such a sweetheart. im not a trans person, but when you said you wish you were young again (although you're really not that old! i know lots of much older trans people who have just begun to transition and i bet they would look at you and wish they were your age again. not that that likely helps, because it's about wanting to feel like you lived your life, i know, but you've still got lots of time to live your life) and were lamenting all the wasted time, i could understand--maybe not exactly how you feel or how tough it's been for you--but a bit of that. i go through all my days feeling like that lately, like i lost something that it is impossible to get back. and of course all this covid business just exacerbates that feeling by making me feel trapped in my present reality. i actually found you through posie parkers videos. i was interested in what she was saying about womens spaces, having never heard that kind of argument before (lots of trans people where i live, nobody gives a shit about them using whichever washroom. sort of like breast feeding, i wouldnt even know it was an issue for some people if it wasnt for media), and thought maybe she had a point and, as well, i have to admit i found her somewhat hilarious and rad as i tend to find strident women who im lucky enough not to have any personal dealings with. but then i came across your videos and realized that you cant take a hard stance on issues like this when there are real, lovely people involved. and also not only that, but it's really not a big fucking deal sharing a washroom with transwomen, is it? i mean, it's not as if i feel completely comfortable around all cis women. in fact, there are lots of cis women who i would feel massively uncomfortable sharing a washroom with, if im going to be perfectly honest. posie parker probably being one of them, lol. anyway, thanks for drawing my attention to this line of clothing. i've never heard of it before-- being from canada-- so i had to look it up. nice stuff! reminds me sort of of ganni (which i love--and which actually i think you would really suit), only, of course, much more reasonably priced. thanks katie! take care!
@@robyn2628 Thank you so much for such lovely, heartfelt comments and observations, Rifke. Yes, if I knew back when I was younger what I know now I would have lived my life a whole lot differently. Thank you very much for your kind, encouraging words and also for sharing your own thoughts and experiences here. I'm really sorry that you've been feeling a bit down lately and I hope that once this Covid phase is over you will start to feel much better again. Lots of love and stay safe. x
@Widow Maker and why do you suppose i would care how dense or how thick or how long katies bones and tendons and muscles are? sorry but that's a bit weird to concern yourself with that. frankly it makes you sound like a creep. although actually i once knew this girl and she had the most primitive looking wrist bones you've ever seen, just bone slathered upon bone. i used to stare at them in curious horror (and you can be sure it did make me feel like a creep). but she was a natural born female, you know, and once i got talking to her she was actually quite nice and funny and her wrist bones ceased to bother me. let me ask you: have you ever taken a really bad picture of yourself-- i mean, in the days before selfies because now you can just delete them and take another--and do you remember how it felt? maybe you dont. maybe you just go through life as a general obtuse clod. but im very sensitive to that sort of thing so there was a time after i had seen a really bad picture of myself that i didnt get my picture taken for years. the feeling of not being able to recognize myself in that picture, wondering 'is this who i am?', 'is this how people see me?' was the greatest feeling of loneliness ive ever experienced (im generally rather immune to loneliness in relation to others and only ever really experience it as a feeling of separation from myself). thats what i imagine being born with the wrong gender must be like, except a million times worse and something that is with you every second of your life. why should trans people be condemned to live the rest of their lives like that when something can be done to ameliorate their suffering? do you believe in unnecessary suffering? and i dont believe i used the words stunning and brave as those really arent my kind of words, but yeah, now that i think about it.... to have suffered so much, to feel betrayed by your own body, and then to make the choice to go through the long arduous process of changing it even though you dont know what the outcome is gonna look like, you dont know what people around you will think, is pretty damn stunning and brave, as well as a huge leap of faith. to nevertheless say "yes, it's worth it" is a majorly life affirming thing, and it's sad that you cant see that and give them their due. i think you must suffer from a great poverty of spirit. that said, i'd like to clarify that im definitely not into cultural marxism.
Wow, blood pressure doing weird things after you put in your body the hormones of the opposite sex? No way! How this could happen? Biology is sooooo transphobic! Since you seem to have a very little idea how the human body works, let me tell you that your blood pressure has a lot to do with the hormones. When women take hormonal contraception, high blood pressure is one of the major side-effects that is listed in the leaflet. And we are talking about women taking female hormones. This is what playing with hormones may do to human body.
“Katie” first of, I don’t know what transphobic really means. Am I irrationally scared of men pretending to be women? Not at all. You have every right to put makeup, high heels and whatever other fetish rocks your boat, even if it means you are happy to poison yourself. I’m totally fine with it. Am I pissed off that people who are not accepting themselves are trying to impose their twisted reality on me? Yes, I am. I guess you feel fine with labels, so by all means, you can can call me whatever you like. That absolutely doesn’t define me. Just like it shouldn’t define you if someone, rightfully defines you as a male, because you are. But then again everyone is entitled to their own delusion. The problem occurs when you are trying to push it on others. Finally, I wouldn’t be sad if you drop dead. I wouldn’t be happy. You completely don’t matter to me. Zilch. What matters to me is twisted ideology and cult that you chose to represent. And I will speak against it as long as there is a breath left in me, because it is right thing to do.
@@EvaMoritz Eva, what is it exactly that bothers you? I can understand women worrying about their rights, women's spaces being invaded by men etc, I can see that point of the argument about this gender neutrality that society is pushing, women fought for refuges etc. But that's not transgenderism, that's gender neutrality which is a different thing. Why so vitriolic? Why so nasty? How does this persons life effect you in that way? Is it that it's on the NHS? Or You feel offended that trans people think they know what it is to be a woman? What? What makes one so nasty in their responses. I can totally understand airing concerns. I'd share my concerns if a loved one was trans, I would want them to think deeply about hormones, operations, etc. I'd be worried about that, but that's because of caring. Your comment just seems hateful and nasty. Why? Wouldn't you get your point across or fears or questions across if you had a little empathy?
@@copyrightcharacter1166 most of what you mentioned here bothers me. But the lost is much longer. Why nasty? I will tell you when you first ask him why is he nasty on other channels that speak about women’s rights. If not for his rude and hateful comments, I wouldn’t even know that this guy exists.
