  • This is my personal story of how I came to know who I was and the process I went through in understanding I was a Butch Lesbian and not Trans.
    This video is in no way meant to invalidate Trans people, nor is it an attempt to dissuade anyone from identifying as Trans. I fully support, love and care about our Trans community.

    As a straight guy this was really informative and eye opening. My little brother is gay and I love him so much and I always accepted him but I know he went through alot of struggles with it especially when he was in high school and even though we were in to religion growing up or anything our parents still didn't take it too well and were kind of dicks to him. I'm still really close with him and this video made realize he probably went through more internally and emotionally than I even thought. I should probably call him now and tell him I love him.

      It's so nice to hear that this video made you think about your brother and things he must have gone through. I'm sure he'd be happy to hear from you. :)

    Very similar to my story. I was into girls at a very, very young age and that was exactly my way of thinking when I was like four or five. Girls like boys so I need to become one. I’m glad I’m not a guy, of course, but that came later. Yeah the word lesbian was a great discovery for me too, I was like 12. I can relate so much with what you say. Thanks very much for sharing

    wow i relate so much. i was also raised in a very religious family although we were catholic. i knew pretty young that i like girls but i guess like alot of other people i kind of pushed it down and denied it to fit in and also i was worried about what my parents would think and if they would disown me. I didn't really come out until i was in college but i wondered for awhile in high school if maybe god put me in the wrong body and i was really a boy and maybe that was why i always seemed to like girls. anyways i just related to alot of what you said and it was really validating to hear from someone that went through similar things.
    Thanks for making this video. :)

      I'm glad you feel validated and that you were able to relate! You are definitely valid and it's totally understandable that you came out a little later while you were trying to figure everything out. There's never a wrong time to be true to who you are!

    I was litteraly in the same exact position.
    Growing up in an extremely Christian home, I assumed I had to be a man traped in a woman's body, because that was the only way it was ok for me to like women. I thought I was trans for years and years without having the language for it. Knowing that in the church I could not be gay, I thought I had to be a man. I had the same logic as a child as you. I was extremely hurt by these assumptions of my self, and it was not until adulthood that I began to accept my self as a lesbian.

    The fact that you were confused about what sexual orientation is doesn't mean trans men are confused lesbians. What you're expressing is evidence that religion is bad, not that trans people are confused gay people.
    I do not merely "identify" as trans. I *am* trans.

      I don't think that's the message of the video. Seems she very much recognizes trans man but she's describing her process determining her own identity. She defends trans men in the video.

    You lost me when you started talking about "trans" as if it's something real and not desperate self delusion. My ex, a butch, fell down the T and surgeries hole.

      Can confirm, as one of the many butches who fell down that hole. 😂
