I found it fascinating that the entire beginning where Killian was explaining his upbringing, he never once talked about his own struggles or personal feelings, unless prompted to. I never see people so selfless on the internet anymore. Sending so much love to you, Killian.
What a beautiful kind soul,the whole time he talked about his mom n dad's struggles n the good in everyone.he has no clue just has special he truly is❤🙏
I grew up in Hazard, Kentucky and live in the next county over now. I went to school with Killian the first year of high school, Killian has always been so wise. Glad to see him doing so well!
Killian seems such a selfless and kind person. He is loving to his mom and stepdads, even his own father who put him through trauma with the suicide attempts. He sounds intelligent and he doesn't blame his transition on trauma from his childhood, he knew what he wanted. I hope he has a happy life. You look great! Thank you for sharing Killian! Great interview Mark!
Loved this interview, it’s rare to see someone on this channel who doesn’t blame everyone else for everything. He seems a really genuine person and I hope he has a happy life and future.
sorry but what does your comment "it's rare to see someone... who doesn't blame everyone else for everything" mean? So many of these people are sexually abused, indoctrinated into terrible groups, peer pressured or raised in environments with high drug use. are you referring to them when you said that?
@@wes365 @alexandereckert5939 it absolutely baffles me how you people are watching such an exclusive-to-all channel that soft white underbelly is where people talk about the most vulnerable moments throughout their life and you decide to comment something like this. that is, of course, if you're not some very pathetic individuals under every possible video mentioning transgender people using the asterisk and "correcting" other ppl in the comments with totally incorrect pronouns. finding a better hobby would for sure prove useful
As a fellow Kentuckian [born & raised in Louisville - moved to Larue Co. to maintain my sobriety] ...thank you for being brave and telling your story to the world. Wishing you peace, love and happiness ❤
Killian is exactly the kind of person who will change the world -- one person at a time. Anyone who meets him can't help but know how decent, capable, and empathetic he is. He personifies this truth: Love is love. Thanks for this interview.
@@liveintruth333 No let me clarify, just because you are something, or in this case imagine yourself to be something- has nothing to do with love. Just because she is a nice person based on a snippet interview? what?
Killian, I am just in awe of you sweetheart. I was born and raised in Northern Ky, and all my family is from Eastern Kentucky. I can only imagine what you’ve had to deal with. But…look at you! Not only did you get outta Dodge and get yourself an education, you are indeed living your truth in the life you deserve. I’m just so happy for and proud of you 🥹 I have a sneaking suspicion that this is only the beginning of your remarkable journey. I wish for you the very best this world has to offer. Keep being the kind, humble, beautiful soul that you are and I know it’s all gonna be GREAT! 👏🏼👍🏼💕
I’m a gay man who grew up in SW Virginia Appalachia and while I didn’t grow up in eastern Kentucky, I am all to familiar with the area and circumstances Killian grew up in. He seems to be a very mature and driven man with good character and priorities. I commend him for his understanding and acceptance of his family members and the situation from which he came. I also commend him for getting himself out to a place more accepting and comfortable for him to live his truth. He is an inspiration. I hope others like him see this and are inspired to follow his lead. Thank you Mark for sharing him, as well as his experience and wisdom with us.
@@wmsobczyk Be respectful to HIM. This isn't about YOUR feelings. Why do your feelings matter, but HIS don't? Being respectful is a free selfless act. Try it. You don't have to understand it fully to respect people. If this is about a religion; HE doesn't share YOUR religion. I respect religions, but I can't respect homophobia or transphobia. Hate is a choice. Your comment is a choice, and not a great one. You don't know HIM personally so it's easier to disrespect a person. He would be respectful to you no matter what, probably. You can choose to not watch or comment.
What a lovely gentle soul...also, no matter who Mark photographs, he always manages to capture their eyes , beautifully...I'm sure a lot of it is down to his skill...but everyone he interviews has gorgeous eyes..😊❤xxx
this video and comments really taught me a lot. here you have a kind, gentle man. full beard, wearing a flannel and jeans, from eastern kentucky. this is essentially the poster child for exactly how conservatives say they want transgender people to exist. it would be so easy to accept Killian and continue pushing hate towards the rest of the community. but even Killian, someone who has done nothing "wrong" and simply wants to tell his story, isnt enough. nothing will ever be enough for a group who hates indiscriminately. genuinely, this is really meaningful and eye-opening to learn. why not live life to the fullest and be exactly who you want to be when conservatives will hate you any chance they get? why even try to conform to what these nazis want you to be when you will never be enough for them? i wish the best for Killian and hope he continues to live true to himself. i know for me, im going to be true to myself too. i am done worrying about what other people think of me. hate me all you want, youre the one who is going to die with regrets. not me.
love to you. I'm also a transman in an epicenter of southern hostility (Texas) and you're right on the money. the laws they're passing will only keep honing in till they can outlaw our existence. honestly I think that's why a lot of us come off as "weird" compared to Killian. because once you realize you will never fit in the box well enough... why hide anything? I think everybody has things they wish they could wear but don't feel like they can pull off, guilty pleasures they don't admit to, ect. and... I gave up on hiding all of that too not too long after reaching exhaustion on hiding who I am to those I love. but I didn't get out as young as he did.
This person probably got irreversible surgeries done to them that they will one day regret more than anything. Irreversible harm. I've seen too many women crying because they realized they wanted to carry children and no longer can because they were brainwashed. Not to mention the many health problems they have afterwards.
Killian, I think it is SO cool you were one of the first people on the board when gay marriage was legalized, it's weird to say that because I don't believe it should have ever been illegal. Your story is so heartfelt and I think it's so precious how much you care for your family. There is something to be said about a person who knows in their mind and soul that something about their personhood doesn't feel right from a very young age before they even experiences any trauma. Your accent is lovely and I understand why people want to be private or are shy.
Fabulous interview. Brilliant guest. Oh Killian, you are brave, courageous, articulate, expressive, wise beyond-your years, and so likeable. Likeable to strangers listening to your story, and, I suspect, loveable to those around you. Thank you so much for agreeing to share so much with us. Your authenticity is are inspiring. I felt as if you were speaking directly to me. Thank you so much. I do hope we will see you interviewed here again 🌈 ❤
I want to be like Killian when I grow up, and I am quite a bit older than him. He seems a kind, humble, thoughtful, and thoroughly decent human being. His response to the most important thing he has learned, blew me away. Might be the wisest response I have heard yet.
Soft spoken and picks kind words. Love the “holler” description. I’m from the south. The story takes me back to old times and people I met as a child. Would be a great person to ride next to on a plane. Would be enjoyable to become friends.i once heard: it just depends on the spin you put on the ball. This man is so positively realistic.
Beautiful Person! Loved his "learned" Quote a lot. And i hope those stupid People around will leave him alone... He is such a kind soul, Brave and very strong. Big hugs and all the best!
'You have something in common with everyone you meet' What a beautiful sentiment from a beautiful man, this dude has his head truly screwed on tight in my mind - through extreme adversity he continues to be a good person - amazing stuff! He's one of these people who were just meant to be here, at this time - in my humble view
I love this person. Great interview. Very happy to hear he chose to not turn his back on his parents. It's hard, but with age you realize just how tired you get from carrying anger with people. Extra layer of freedom when you're able to let it go and just accept.
It’s refreshing to watch a person that doesn’t blame past life events on their current choices or behavior… I loved his smooth and sultry voice I could of watched more of this interview 🌸
One of the most beautiful, and complicated areas in the United States. My husband is from the area. I’m not. Just a different way of life. Thank you for the wonderful interview and for sharing your story!!
Thank you for this. I'm a trans man who grew up in Appalachia West Virginia and hid being trans from my family all my life until my 40s. It's hard being different and growing up in a very old school conservative culture. You feel alone. Nice seeing another trans person from a similar background.
I was only going to watch this interview for a couple minutes. But Killian was such a nice sweet man that I watched the whole interview. A very kind nice man. I wish him all the best.
What a great interview! Much love for Killian! After going through all that and remaining selfless and positive is an incredible feat most people are unable to do. I hope you’re doing well and continue to thrive.
As the mom of a trans son, I wish his parents would try harder to be more accepting and understanding of his transition. He seems like a great guy. I wish him all the best life has to offer.
Seems like a nice person. Not for me to pass judgment but I think it’s a better life choice than so many of others on the channel that have hade traumatic experiences in childhood.
Because trans men are/were women, I think people tend to make fun of men way more than women in general when it comes to nonconforming gender tendencies in general, even if you take the trans aspect out of the equation, i.e. a feminine man is going to get ridiculed significantly more than a masculine female. I'm not even anti-trans, I just think that's the psychology at play here, because you're DEFINITELY not wrong.
What a lovely wise and compassionate person...I will remember his observation that you have something in common with everyone you meet and try to seek the connections
Our brains are the vast unknown. I believe that something chemical in one’s brain sends these signals about sexuality. He’s a very nice person. Good to give him interview time over a lost cause like Rebecca. I’m sending him a virtual hug.
Killian, you have a good head on your shoulders. Growing up my best friend knew he was gay as a very young child. stay focused and true to you. best of luck
Im a trans guy and i love these interviews, i was always wondering when you would post a trans man on here. Killian, thank you for sharing your story. I relate to a lot of things you said, like choosing family over your transition. Its hard being trans, im glad he’s able to be himself
I've lived here in Southeast Ky my entire life and tbh most families are to busy just trying to survive week to week to worry about someone else's color or sexual preference or what they want to be identified as. It means nothing to the vast majority of us. Just live your life and if you are happy then we are happy for you. If you need help with something don't shy away from asking us because we are glad to be of service to someone whose struggling because we know that feeling. There are people that are set in their ways and ain't willing to change their opinions of something that they truly don't understand because if something is being talked about in a national spotlight and is only shown in a negative manner, no one is going to be willing to dive deeper into it to try and understand it.
Amazing person. I am learning to love and understand above and before judgement. Thank you Mark for helping me learn, thank you Killian also for the same and for being willing to share your story.
Of all the interviews I have listened to on transgender people - on the net that is - Killian seems the most logical, and the most polite, and the most kindest I have ever seen. I wish him well in his life.
@thegoodgreekgirl2190 i don’t disagree with you, but honestly, being gay, straight, transgender, etc., has little to do with being a good or nice person. your lifestyle/rearing/personal relationships etc. does have to do with it, but really, there are very great and absolutely horrible gay people, great and horrible transgender people, and great and horrible straight people everywhere.
Killian, You are a very handsome, intelligent and loving young man. As for not many men being short statured, there are many men of Italian and Hispanic descent who tend to be on the short side. I know because many of the men on the maternal side of my family are 5'5 or shorter. Please don't think that your short stature makes you any less masculine. The thing that impressed me most however was the way you understood that transitioning would be harder for your mom's generation and adjusted your expectations accordingly. I see so many young LGBTQIA people who have literally ruined relationships with parents and grandparents because they have a harder time getting used to using transsensitive language. They get labeled as transphobic which is in your accurate. It's simply is that this was not a possibility and their generation and it takes them longer to wrap their heads around new gender identities. Finally I found you incredibly gracious and admired the way you acknowledged the opportunities that you were granted in order to be able to go to college. May you live long and prosper!
Formerly trans here. Trauma really alters your sense of self and identity. it took me to reach my mid twenties to realize what i thought was the answer, really wasnt. it was a response to severe childhood trauma. hope this resonates with someone.❤
But you were awfully judgmental of that person that wore a diaper that said it was because of trauma, but your trauma is different, right? Yours affected you but other peoples can't affect them.
Just wanted to say I really enjoy listening to your videos as I drive truck. I’ve been following Rebecca’s saga for some time… I hope she gets clean some day. She’s beautiful inside and out. When’s she’s sober you can really see her spark of intellect and wit. ❤
What a beautiful and relaxing interview. Thank you for sharing with us Killian. As someone else commented, changing negativity one person at a time. Thank you Mark.
I’m sorry your mom doesn’t defend you and hush up you it’s not right don’t care how you were raised stand by your children you seem like a good person and that’s what really matters at the end of the day you’re awesome love and light
What a beautiful story and person. I loved listening to him and hope his life keeps bringing him more and more joy. He has had to be brave to get where he is
If everyone had Killian's outlook on life, there would be peace. For someone that young and not religious, he has more compassion and forgiveness and understanding than religious people. He is wise beyond his years.

Enjoyed this, thanks Mark and Killian
Wish you the best in life Killian, you have a heart of gold.💙
Our brains are the vast unknown. I believe that something chemical in one’s brain sends these signals about sexuality. He’s a very nice person. Good to give him interview time over a lost cause like Rebecca. I’m sending him a virtual hug.
Killian, you have a good head on your shoulders. Growing up my best friend knew he was gay as a very young child. stay focused and true to you. best of luck
What a great interview. I enjoyed that very much. Such a wise beautiful soul right there and I love that accent.
Im a trans guy and i love these interviews, i was always wondering when you would post a trans man on here. Killian, thank you for sharing your story. I relate to a lot of things you said, like choosing family over your transition. Its hard being trans, im glad he’s able to be himself
His voice is very soothing
What a lovely, articulate, and thoughtful fellow!
Such a good lesson "we all have something in common with each other". I really enjoyed hearing Killian's story. He is a success story!
Loved listening to this guy. Seems very level-headed.

What an intelligent, calm and good human being. Wishing you all the best Killian for a great life, you deserve it❤
I've lived here in Southeast Ky my entire life and tbh most families are to busy just trying to survive week to week to worry about someone else's color or sexual preference or what they want to be identified as. It means nothing to the vast majority of us. Just live your life and if you are happy then we are happy for you. If you need help with something don't shy away from asking us because we are glad to be of service to someone whose struggling because we know that feeling. There are people that are set in their ways and ain't willing to change their opinions of something that they truly don't understand because if something is being talked about in a national spotlight and is only shown in a negative manner, no one is going to be willing to dive deeper into it to try and understand it.
A very thoughtful, insightful and compassionate human being. Very enjoyable interview 🪶✌️
Amazing person. I am learning to love and understand above and before judgement. Thank you Mark for helping me learn, thank you Killian also for the same and for being willing to share your story.
Killian seems like such an honest and genuine person.
Sincere and great at self- expression.
Not an ounce of pretense.
What an interview! World needs more people like you, Killian! All the best, from Alaska.
Of all the interviews I have listened to on transgender people - on the net that is - Killian seems the most logical, and the most polite, and the most kindest I have ever seen. I wish him well in his life.

@thegoodgreekgirl2190 i don’t disagree with you, but honestly, being gay, straight, transgender, etc., has little to do with being a good or nice person. your lifestyle/rearing/personal relationships etc. does have to do with it, but really, there are very great and absolutely horrible gay people, great and horrible transgender people, and great and horrible straight people everywhere.
Thanks for sharing your story 😊
Killian, You are a very handsome, intelligent and loving young man. As for not many men being short statured, there are many men of Italian and Hispanic descent who tend to be on the short side. I know because many of the men on the maternal side of my family are 5'5 or shorter. Please don't think that your short stature makes you any less masculine. The thing that impressed me most however was the way you understood that transitioning would be harder for your mom's generation and adjusted your expectations accordingly. I see so many young LGBTQIA people who have literally ruined relationships with parents and grandparents because they have a harder time getting used to using transsensitive language. They get labeled as transphobic which is in your accurate. It's simply is that this was not a possibility and their generation and it takes them longer to wrap their heads around new gender identities. Finally I found you incredibly gracious and admired the way you acknowledged the opportunities that you were granted in order to be able to go to college. May you live long and prosper!
I love his voice...very soothing ❤
That'll be because SHE is in actual fact a WOMAN......crazy, isn't it? 🤪
Her.
She has a vagina
@@christmaskid007apparently you're too ignorant to comprehend the process of gender transitioning
@@christmaskid007 how tf would YOU know?
Love, kindness, empathy and intelligence....a truly inspiring human being in my opinion.
Formerly trans here. Trauma really alters your sense of self and identity. it took me to reach my mid twenties to realize what i thought was the answer, really wasnt. it was a response to severe childhood trauma. hope this resonates with someone.❤
I hope you’ve found the help to work past your childhood trauma. Thank you for sharing. ❤
everybody is different. Your own personal story does not apply to everyone else in the world. Still, all power to you!
Detrans bot go away
@@miroz5824it does apply to the vast majority of those who suffer gender dysphoria
But you were awfully judgmental of that person that wore a diaper that said it was because of trauma, but your trauma is different, right? Yours affected you but other peoples can't affect them.
Just wanted to say I really enjoy listening to your videos as I drive truck. I’ve been following Rebecca’s saga for some time… I hope she gets clean some day. She’s beautiful inside and out. When’s she’s sober you can really see her spark of intellect and wit. ❤
Killian I'm so happy for you that you made it out of the holler and can live your dream!
Killian is such a sweet, selfless, understanding person.... i wish you only the best!❤😊
What a sweet, wise and well adjusted young man. I wish him all the best!

He is a certified QT-pie. I love his smile and sheepish but kind of cheeky personality.
What a beautiful and relaxing interview. Thank you for sharing with us Killian. As someone else commented, changing negativity one person at a time. Thank you Mark.
what a great interview! Killian, i wish you the very best, and not just because you share a family surname. you exude kindness and respect.
I’m sorry your mom doesn’t defend you and hush up you it’s not right don’t care how you were raised stand by your children you seem like a good person and that’s what really matters at the end of the day you’re awesome love and light
Killian has such a kind and genuine presence! Loved this interview!
What a lovely, kind, articulate, young man. Respect.
What a beautiful story and person. I loved listening to him and hope his life keeps bringing him more and more joy. He has had to be brave to get where he is
What a sweet video. Such a proper young man! I wish him well in life. 🙏

@@wmsobczyk I came to watch the video, not be schooled by you. Thank you
If everyone had Killian's outlook on life, there would be peace. For someone that young and not religious, he has more compassion and forgiveness and understanding than religious people. He is wise beyond his years.
I wish you peace and love, Killian. Beautiful soul 💜
Thank-you for this interview. He tells a great story and is so well spoken. LOVE TO YOU AND BEST WISHES.
I really enjoyed this interview, very interesting, thanks, Killian/ Mark🙌
