If ya'll don't accept trans people, fine, but this video isn't about being forced to date them etc. It's about how trans people should be accepted to have the right to FEEL SAFE. Which a lot of trans people *don't.* Imagine everyday/night walking down the street wondering whether or not you're going to get bashed or mugged simply for your personal identity? That's fucking terrifying.
I don’t think it’s fine to not accept trans people and I wanna be sure that you don’t think being trans is a choice but being brave enough to express their authentic selves is. Otherwise, I completely agree with you!
I smile at everyone. If they don't smile back, that's their problem. I can only be myself. The girl in this video is gorgeous. It doesn't matter whether or not a transgender person "passes", but as far as I can tell, she passes. I'm surprised anyone would assume she's trans.
switzerland we say in different area as we passed away we smile and say " Bonjour, Buongiorno, Grüezi, Bundi" I never had problem. I didn't receive catcalling today because im religious. Which is great. Before it was worst..
I literally hate being stared at, or staring at people, a fleeting half-a-sec look is more than enough to analyze someone, so I can't imagine how hard is for these people to deal with this shit EVERY-SINGLE-DAAAAY.

@@beautifulrainbow470 “so it’s not good to be proud of who you are” your tryin to changing what you actually are, trans people want us to accept them for what they “are” but cannot accept their true self, why should we accept them if they reject themselves, they need help, perception is never a reality
You choose the behavior you choose the consequences. If a hairy man wants to walk down the street in a dress, then people will give him the side eye. Walk down the street in a clown outfit then tell me I’m wrong. The logic of transgenderism is that we should ignore basic facts cause they may hurt someones feelings. Like the fact that the word gender is a synonym for sex and has been for 100s of years, or the fact that they don’t look like, act like, or actually do anything like women. You are literally judging people right now for thinking this weird delusion is BS making you a hypocrite. If you live in a culture that’s judgement free, then you’ll end up having murderers walking the streets freely. That’s where it leads.
It's so disheartening how LGBTQ+ people feel unsafe in public spaces. I just wish people weren't so bigoted in their beliefs. But for all those who see this, you are beautiful and strong.
I think its just because its considered "weird" so it garners many stares obviously. I don't think that will ever change but the violence against these people is not cool.
Going after a straight man yea for sure it will not have positive feedback. He is straight. If a bi man approaches them they feel insulted because it’s a bi man and feel invalidated. Why a straight man it’s okay to be invalidated but a trans it’s not okay? They say be your true self, but they don’t want to be their true self, they want to be something else, which is fine, but you can’t force everyone to align with your self perception
@@nyumyu4265 can you elaborate on that or you avoid all rational comments and simply move to insult? A straight man tells you he likes women and not trans women, he is labeled transphobic for that. Make it make sense If he says he prefers biological women to avoid the stupid notion “trans women are women, there is no difference” (we all know it’s different) then they are again transphobic. In general they have no option but being invalided and forced to be with trans or else they are evil
@@annas4843 there are plenty of straight men who would date trans women, but if your talking about passing then that's a problem that goes far beyond just straight men
Yikes so I know there's so much shit in the comments but thank you for making this video because it gave me a real sense of solidarity and made me feel less alone.
@@Bizzyb33z Three months later, the troll was finally dealt with. You know you can report comments, right? Alphabet is under some extreme pressure to clean up their offerings. With the removal of certain protections social media companies enjoyed last year, there's some impressive legal impetus for them to actually do something.
I understand what many are saying in regards to the glances and seeing how these individuals may be reacting negatively or they are worrying about other people : that ultimately they shouldn't care or worry about this but have you ever considered that for some trans people..... They are at a higher risk of violence and danger. The paranoia from anxiety forms in their minds because its the human brain trying to protect them from harm. They are very aware of the threat they may or may not face because in reality being trans offends alot of people. Alot of people hate trans people. This isn't an opinion it's facts. Transphobia is real.... Stop trying to say it doesn't exist

@@dontcallanimalspetstheyare7871 of course they real girl. You sound kinda crazy though chill out lol. If you pray with intention and determination eventually that will be manifested.
I applaud each of these ladies for their bravery and courage to be their true authentic selves no matter what! Not a lot of people, no matter what their gender identity or sexual orientation, have that kind of strength to be so real and honest with themselves, let alone with others.
I got to give it to trans people, they're very strong to walk out in public places.. I know its scary to get nasty stares and negative attention from people who are not like you or people who doesn't understand the lifestyle... I can't do it, I hate to get any type of attention..
@@johnnie2638 you know yourself better than any outsider on the street. Be strong, you'll prevail ultimately over the hatred. Anyone without talent or value can dish out hate and negativity but to endure it and persist is a reflection of your own strength.
Even watching this brings back my anxiety & panic onset. Unfortunately I'm a survivor of physical & sexual assaults and had to move away from the larger city for now. I'm still dealing with my traumas and one day hope that I can confidently walk in this world once again. Beautiful trans sisters, I applaud you all for your bravery and your beauty.
Cmon guys leave trans people alone. We are all beautiful in our own way whether you are trans or not. We are all the same too. Like that one trans said.. We walk the same street, breathe the same air.. Treat them like they are actually human and not like some aliens. I respect trans people. Why cant (most of) you guys respect them.
Why are there mostly only transwomen but never transmen it's because life is harder as a man. EDIT: Life is harder than a women, yes, it was always like that but humans are a clump of cells, only living to eat and reproduce. Women have a higher chanche of getting a potentional mate
@@jungili3071 Because trans women are way more prominent and villainized by the media? There are plenty of trans men out there, such as Elliot Page, for example.
So true . Some people admire us... others are disgusted...others laugh...but they don't realize us trans have a great potential just like any other person may have also... we're beautiful, brave, strong, independent and super friendly sexy girls. I ignore the negative looks/ comments/ gestures but rather appreciate the positive ones. I love being a beautiful transgender girl, i love being me. No regrets, never been happier than now. I love to wake up to be me myself and I on the daily.
Great you feel better now. :) But please stop calling women CIS. If you don´t like to be bullied, why are you all bullying women by insulting our identities?
You guys are all missing the point of this video. It has nothing to do with shaming people into dating them. But it explains how difficult it is for them to just interact with the world. They aren't kidding when they say it would be 1000 times easier to just be gay. But they aren't gay.

I think some of the nonhateful response in the comments is coming from the fact that you took a camera out and filmed people's reactions and then read into them negatively. When you are insecure (in both senses, including not feeling safe) you're more likely to project what you're feeling onto other people. Brandi's interview was much more reasonable. She didn't assume everyone found her unattractive or that they were uncomfortable. Also, in NYC you should expect most people to be walking around with RBF.
When you see a piece of driftwood in Louisiana, it probably is not an alligator, but that does not mean that your gut reaction is any less understandable when you're shaken, thinking you'll get your arm torn off. Trans women get enough comments, derisive stares, and threats of assault to condition them to read looks that *may* be neutral as negative. In addition to that, most trans women know how people react when you look gender conforming, so they'll have practice in knowing when people read them as gender non-conforming. The point of combining the shots of people's looks with the commentary about negative reactions was not to accuse the people in those shots of being transphobic, but to give you an insight into what it's like to be looked at as a trans woman and never knowing, always having these thoughts. Practice just a little bit of empathy and critical thinking.
@@obermegalutschoar I dont think the staring as shown in this video is anywhere near reality. Thats just not how people act. Most people dont stare for long periods of time at anyone because they know its considered rude. The other thing is, most people dont care and they have much more important things on their minds.
I am Trans myself, Trans male to be clear. What these people said in the video is exactly what I have to go through every day. I hope the best for everyone.
Hi, maybe if you stick with the gender you were born with (female) you won't have to go through these things. Learn to accept yourself instead of forcing it on others. Hope that helps!
@@LgbtqSupport-gh1wr No, you posted on a public website, I'll express my opinion however I want. Not my fault you can't handle criticism without you crying about it.
@@LgbtqSupport-gh1wr Ok now I'm a bit curious. Why can't you stay female? Why do you want to change something that is essentially embedded into your DNA? Wanting to change genders is often the result of severe trauma, to escape a problem you experienced in your early life. Or to say that you're happy mutilating your body physically and chemically is a complete lie. HRT is known to cause severe chemical imbalances in the brain and it results in depressions for them years down the line. That's why there's no long term study, because too many un-alive themselves from their mistakes and realize they CAN'T go back and fix it. Listen if you need someone to talk to, I'm here. Don't throw your life away.
Don't listen to ppl. Be the beautiful woman you are. Edit: geez transphobes and homophobes need to get a life. Like these ppl aren't hurting you and studies show transphobes and homophobes aren't very smart
Black men felt the exact same way when I was younger every single day….in school, stores, malls, and living life. Daddy raised me to be proud of myself and that I belonged. Once I figured it out, I was okay and excelled at whatever I wanted. I didn’t worry about what others thought and I didn’t care about being accepted by anyone. Not my problem, only theirs.
it will be your problem if you get beaten up for being black. It will be their problem if they are getting attacked for being trans. Its not purly about confidence
@@LeLe-bo7cs Yes, but the thing about that is youre going to get attacked whether youre confident or not. Have confidence and stop worrying about what others think because it's only gonna stress you out; Instead, redirect your anxiety into MMA and firearm training because this is THE UNITED STATES (context of video is NYC) and the second amendment DOES NOT DISCRIMINATE 🦅🦅🦅 thats right, queens (and kings and court fools
I agree leave them alone. Let trans people walk around as whatever they want to be. No problem with that at all. My ONLY issue with trans people are they want us to turn drop our beliefs in our strict binary gendered universe and embrace their multi-gendered universe. Trans genders need to take a page out of their own book and respect our rights to believe in a binary gendered reality! Live and let live.
@@flucas6595 Yep its all good if you stay in your own lane on the expressway of love. I have no problem if a straight man signals that he wants to change lanes and enjoy some trans lovin. What two consenting adults do is up to them. Just be honest upfront about what you are, what have and what you don't. Things will be fine!
As a gay male myself this makes me so sad because they’re all so beautiful and they seems so genuine that it isn’t fair for them to have to feel so unsafe just walking. As a person from NYC myself too as I’ve grown up I’ve become more confident in walking around the city but still have some fear. I wouldn’t walk around by myself though and that is definitely a problem
I'm a gay man but I don't need to force people to use special made up pronouns to address me. Me being gay does not ask anyone to do anything but leave me alone and let me live my life with my gay peers in peace. Trans gender people want the world to stop using customary gendered pronouns or else. I don't think they will win this battle. It's like prohibition outlawing alcohol. The idea of gender being binary is ingrained in the culture it may never change.
I feel like they do, a little nervous about it, and I live up in Massachusetts I'm afraid to go down into the Southern States because I don't know what will happen I even meet violent people up here that are against me or whatever their problem is
For those interested in passing, voice training helps a ton and is the primary determining factor in how people will gender you. It takes work and practice. However, kudos to those who love their natural voice! Y’all are trailblazing 💖

@@Baker19911 yeah my happiness is partly based on not being beaten up, yelled at by strangers on the street or denied service in shops. Which is linked to how people perceive me.
They really need to mention that even though all these women and people look very pretty and passable now, ALL of them have "looked like a man" at some point, and that previous experience is the cause of the a lot of the paranoia. You can tell how well you pass, just like you can't really hear what your own voice sounds like, and how much you pass can change depending on what you're wearing or where you are
no ,not necessarily they looked like men before but people tell you ,you do even when you don't ,it's their way to force you to stay the gender convenient for them to be or just be mean.
Who the hell is hating on the corniest man of all times. Like a man who literally wants to be a woman. Which is a feat they can't accomplish. No matter how many operations body alterations that one's does. A man is still just a man. Point blank period. A man is a man is a man. Just because a man call himself a woman. Acts like a woman. They still not no goddamn woman. On my soul. They can't get pregnant like woman. They can't breast feed. They simply just wannabe woman. Point blank period.
I know it probably is in here somewhere but I honestly can't find any negative comments here in 2021. I think videos get to a point where old comments get either drowned out by new comments, and/or negative one's get mass reported and automatically removed.
Congratulations on being misinformed by propaganda and thinking that these people are making decisions as simple as what color shirt to wear when talking about changing their gender.

To see this is disheartening I’m trans myself (female to male) and I also feel like I get awkward looks sometimes I don’t mind it, but to see all this hate on these gorgeous. Strong. Independent. Young women is v upsetting

I find it so crazy that I’m a natural born woman and I’m just now coming into myself as a woman and I actually find myself struggling with some of the same things as far as trying to establish myself as the woman I know I wanna be in life. For example like I wanna wear heels every single day and I want certain outfits to match my personality, wigs, make up etc. etc. Not only that but I’m also working on how I carry myself on the inside And dealing with people. Choosing how to respond to them and what I don’t respond to. Anyways, The process of character building is def hard regardless of whose going through it lol Anyways, God bless and hope you find your way.
see wearing 10inch stiledos at 1 AM in NYC , trans or not isn't safe AT ALL. because if you get attacked , how far can you run with them spiky high heels without being knocked your head to the pavement.

@@trinitym5552 at higher risk of violence than who? certainly not women. Women are the biggest victims of violence period. A trans woman has the muscle power of a man to defend. Women are more likely to be killed by another man. And serial killers largel go for women for a reason -- easier prey.
Imagine being unable to mind your own business and having nothing better to do than judging someone's appearance and personal choices that have no harmful implication on anybody People sure have wonderful priorities
Trans folx deserve to feel safe in any and every environment they are in. I also hate how respect stems from one's ability to "pass" esp with cismen who get hurt when they realize they're attracted to a transwoman. I hate how their reaction in turn gets redirected to trans folx as hatred and vitriol once again show how some cismen only value women for their looks.
This is so true, it has been happening to me almost every single day, that's why I just keep earbuds in my ears and blast music like there's no tomorrow so I can drown out the murmurings of people talking.
@Chris Jones I am not in denial, I come from a family that is half Christan half Muslim and things were very strict, going to church and following the ideology of the Christianity religion so trust me I know. However I love my life now, back then I didn't have no GFS, now a days I done slept with over 100 women just for being myself, I have been with both girls and guys and they all love me so your words can't bring me down because there words lift me up! Nice try though lol I'll be a guy smashing chicks and getting smashed by dudes and make all the money I can and have fun living my life, done been in 3somes and all so I could care less about your opinion tough guy. Later lol
No one in the city is actually staring and murmering about you. They don't actually notice you at all. Not really. That is just paranoia that you need to overcome.
I AM NOT THE JUDGE OR THE JURY. WE ARE LIVING IN PERILOUS TIMES AND PEEPS ARE HATEFUL...WHEN UR COME OUT AS TRANS PEOPLE USE THAT SOMETIMES TO LASH OUT AND HURT THAT PERSON. EVERYONE DESERVES TO LIVE THEIR LIFE EVEN IF U DON'T UNDERSTAND IT. LEAVE THEM ALONE.😒

I’m glad one of the individuals highlighted that this is all psychological, because there’s no definite way to tell what anyone is thinking. People look at other people all the time, what you assume they could be thinking is either based on your security or insecurity. Nothing more nothing less unless the passerby clearly has some sort of expression on their face that’s universally understood to be negative, or they actually voice how they feel.

I'm a trans guy. 99% of the time, they're not looking at you - or if they are, it's just because they're looking around the street as they walk. Sometimes I get paranoid about this too, yes, but I know that I'm only imagining things when I think that everyone I pass is walking past me and looking because I'm trans.
that's not true Many times I convinced myself of the same words you said But I made sure they were staring at me because of my gender Many of them even made abusive comments and called me a trany and man, or freak Or they just laugh or even insult me This problem really exists with us as male-to-female trans
I think we all have insecurities and think that we can read peoples minds when they look at us. But we don’t know what they are really thinking. They could be admiring our clothing or our make up. We can’t just assume they want to attack us. It’s good to be aware but thinking the worst will only attract that. Im a women and I’ve been getting looked at since I was 13. Be aware not afraid.
Try being a trans woman and not passing at all. I started late in life because I am older (64) and being trans and young there was no discussion anywhere. At least where I was. My mom beat me for 13-14 year’s because when I was 3 or 4 (my first memories) is of my mom beating me and telling me I am not a girl. She kicked me out of the house at 16. I thought I was a freak and tried the “male thing”, I just wound up trying to commit suicide multiple times. I am 64 not and although I am transitioning now at times I still feel like a freak as everyone knows the gender I was born into and that according to them I must be a freak. It’s better now with more knowledge out there, but it can still be devastating I am sure. Just be you and not what society says you are.
Joanna Lamb-I know your comment was added here a while ago now, but i was so moved by your story that I had to reply. Please know that you did not deserve the treatment you received from your mother, & you're not a freak. You are an amazing, strong woman who deserves to be happy, & anyone who tells you any different are nothing but bigots filled with hate.
I remember being a young boy and going to a shopping mall. There were these people making fun of this trans person being a "man in a dress" but I was so young and I never was taught to be mean so I just saw her as a woman, I mean she didn't pass as well as some other trans people do but she was a woman nevertheless. If transgender people were given the treatment they deserve then people would be less scared and they wouldn't even notice trans ppl are walking next to them. Remeber hate is learned it is NOT innate.
@@uyoebyik Not all of them but most trans people are cool. I can say that there are many more cisgender people who groom people but I wouldn't pain you all with the same brush would I?
Ok the one thing I dont like about this video is showing peoples reactions, We dont actually know what theyre looking at or what theyre thinking but this is making these strangers look bad. I stare at people when I walk around, Im not judging or being a dick about it but I like people watching.
I think the director of the film is just using the stares to artistically represent the paranoia trans people feel when being stared at. The slowness of the camera and the focus of the shot being centered in on the stare with the background blurred really drives the point home that they were looking. I did not get from this that the director was trying to make any opinion of the people starring and implying that they are thinking negative thoughts against the people they are starring at. What I got from this is that regardless of what these people were thinking that these trans people have to process this on a daily basis and wonder what other people are thinking about them while they're being starred at, even if it's just to look. I think this is mainly to emphasis the uncomfortableness of it all. I've had to speak in front of an audience of 200 people before. It's not the most comfortable feeling in the world.
You get so many stares like that when you're trans. It's not just one or two people and there's no way to say what they're thinking, but they're staring at you, and you can't say that people just have to pretend it's not happening because that's not how it works.
@@glitterytransunicorn1359 Being self conscious about your own identity brings on a deep dread and paranoia that people are staring at you, judging you, that they can somehow tell you're trans by a momentary glance on the street, and you end up fearing strangers. The truth is, especially in NYC, no one is actually looking at YOU or giving any consideration at all to YOU. They are looking at everyone and everything but at nothing at the same time. If you make eye contact, they will too, but it means nothing. It's all in your head. There are so many androgynous looking people in a city. It is not novel or special. No one is actually staring at you. This is your own inner fear and insecurity that you need to overcome.
6:57 Exactly. Thank you so much for making this video and interviewing all these amazing people! There is NOTHING wrong w being transgender, and it seriously sucks how just genuine human beings like these people get judged and attacked just because this. Good luck to anyone else there thats trans, or just in a hard place!
99% of passing is confidence. If you feel confidence in your womanhood, you act more naturally. Others pick up on this and are more apt to treat us like women. The converse applies to trans men.
I'm a bit intersexed, and am a lesbian oriented transwoman. I worked hard on voice,looking,walking,smelling REAL. I am not only confident but ready. I live in NYC and had to deal with violence before transitioning. I workout and practice wing-chun self defense. I look and dress as an athletic femme.I embrace the goddess within . I have a subtle aura of don't mess with this bitch. Its the racism,rapists,and just the violent orientation of other NYCers that ensures,looking real,looking pretty,and ready to kick ass if necessary. TERFS need to shut the hell up,and they are not most moderate feminist. Yes confidence is important and don't make unnecessary eye contact,and a sweet smile can help.Train relaxing circular moves that are subtle enough. DQ's have rights but they intentionally get it all wrong if you want to appear real.
I am not a transgender but from my childhood, I still question things about inequality and injustice, including the patriarchy brainwashing and hypocrisy of our society. Quite late, because only few years ago I decided to finally express who I really am. In my heart, I always was a gender-bender, who adores feminine and androgynous look. Expressing yourself with fashion is such a powerful and tribal thing (I fell in love with Derek's look completely!). Great thing is that my partner supports me fully, and that's really powerful. But streets are different, and as long as I don't want anyone around me to feel uncomfortable and I am definitely afraid of any assaults, in the end I am the one who's feeling uncomfortable and just not in the right place. I am pushing it forward, including my dull and uniformed working place. If you think about it, it's just few attributes here and there, all on your skin, not someone's else, attached to your body, not someone's else. It's you who have the full autonomy, to think the way you think, to feel the way you feel and to perceive the world the way you do. No one should have a doubt those beautiful human beings are really brave, and deserve a lot of respect.
I’ll be honest, besides a few weird looks and mean comments and laughs here and there, it really hasn’t been too bad for me, and some of those could’ve been about something else entirely (some of them were obviously about me being trans, though). I came out last year, so maybe things are getting better or maybe I pass well enough that most people don’t even realize I’m trans, but it hasn’t been too horrible for me tbh
Never feel ashamed when people don't know you are trans and hit on you. You don't have to disclose that information if you don't want to. Anyone who feels that you have to reveal you are trans to a person thinks that there is something inherently "homosexual" or "gay" being with a trans person. What draws you to a trans person is not the qualities of them being the same gender as you. It was the qualities of the opposite gender that drew you to them. So, if you think you are "gay" or "being tricked" because you are interacting with a trans person, you need to pause and think what drew you to that person? Was it the desire of being with the same gender or the opposite gender? If the answer was looking for the opposite gender, welcome to being just your regular straight self.
Rookielove1 and you are entitled to you opinion, but this also means you have a very limited view on gender. I'm not going to sit here and explain why that is problematic. If you want to know, watch Trans 101 with Chase Ross. If you want to stay ignorant, you do you sweetie. We have no more to discuss.
No I’m sorry I disagree. If I dated somebody and they told me much later on that they’re trans I would be extremely upset. They are people and human beings, they deserve to be loved and respected and I deserve to be told the truth. Hiding it from somebody is sneaky and dirty. We aren’t all born just accepting these ideologies, some of us are a little uncomfortable with it and are working on trying to be more accepting, and we deserve to be told the truth
I’m a 6’7” attractive gay man. I come across as very straight. The moment people find out im gay, half will love me more and half will suddenly become cold and unfriendly.
@@Sswervyy I’m making notes on the people who already know me, then find out I’m gay. It’s a social observation. Of course not everyone is going to like me. Sort of stupid and lack of reading comprehension, don’t you think?
Everyone is not going to be excepted. I used to feel that everyone was gazing at me when I felt unsure about myself. One must find that confidence and not care what others think or feel about them. You can't and won't please everyone. 💯🙏🏽
this is an amazing, educating video! i wish they would have had a trans man there aswell though, as i noice a distinct lack of representation in the community in that aspect
People are people regardless of their gender. Everyone deserves respect. I feel so bad for The LGBTQ community. No one should be mistreated for being who they are. Yes times are changing and people just need to except that. When I see trans people I see strength and bravery and admiration. It takes a lot of heart to be who you are and not everyone can admit that or handle that.

Not to hurt anyone’s feelings, but the truth needs to be said: Most normal people think trans people are weird. We don’t say anything to you, but we try to avoid you and we don’t see you as the sex you’re trying to copy.
Being self conscious about your own identity brings on a deep dread and paranoia that people are staring at you, judging you, that they can somehow tell you're trans by a momentary glance on the street, and you end up fearing strangers. The truth is, especially in NYC, no one is actually looking at YOU or giving any consideration at all to YOU. They are looking at everyone and everything but at nothing at the same time. If you make eye contact, they will too, but it means nothing. It's all in your head. There are so many androgynous looking people in a city. It is not novel or special. No one is actually staring at you. This is your own inner fear and insecurity that you need to overcome.
These women are amazing and gorgeous. As a transgender guy, hearing their stories made me very emotional and upset at the state of the world. I can relate to their stories as well, but in some ways more than others. I try to walk very fast so people don’t get a good look at me, and even though I’m closeted and pre-T, I very desperately want to look male. So I think to myself: if I just don’t speak, look them in the eyes, or show my appearance, they might think I’m a guy. And when people hear my high pitched voice, they have a lot of questions, from “are you a boy or girl?” to telling me I am a girl, to treating me like an “SJW” aggressive lesbian even though I don’t mention anything about my political views or sexuality. If I were to wish anything, it would be that people stop gendering and assuming things about me based on my appearance. Not a single person who has made assumptions about my appearance has clarified with me if they were right, they just assume because they’re cishet that they’re correct. When I’m in public I get this anxiety a lot, which is why I don’t go out much (I live in a very conservative country too), but people who see you on a regular basis and think they know me still think they have the right to be subtly transphobic. It frustrates me to no end, especially because their opinions on lgbtq people are negative and unchangeable, and of course I’m the victim because of that. If transphobes could live one day as a transgender person and experience the struggles we do, they would change their minds, but until then…
For anyone one who is trans or is in the lgbtq+ community, this is what I live by. "Haters gonna hate, when we show up, we get the sexy mission done" Everyone is handsome or beautiful in their own way. Don't let these phobic scaredy cats control who you are. Be yourself, no matter WHAT anyone says!❤❤
@Chris Jones Come on man I’m no feeling this either free flowing gender movement either, but supporting trans people doesn’t make you gay. Stop being so immature.

@Chris Jones you know gender dysphoria really is a thing. Educate yourself instead of being ignorant. The fact that men like you think that the whole world resolves around to think people would really wanna trick you lmao
As a regular woman I know it doesn’t take away fear of violence but, if trans women could just know, people look at women. A woman on stage with a band of men will always be the most magnetic person. People look at and are drawn to feminine energy. So it may be partly because you are coming across as feminine that people look at you.
I was raised to NOT stare at people. No one should be eyeballing anyone long enough to realize anyone is trans or otherwise. People are rude, tacky and intrusive as fuck. Just mind your damn business!!!
Some of the stares might be bigotry, or something, sure. But, I believe a lot of that is just paranoia... for good reason in this point in time, but paranoia none the less. I think the bulk of it is more likely people giving the stink-eye for completely unrelated shit, like someone's outfit, getting within their personal bubble, or simply looking at them. People are getting more and more hands off, and I doubt cities are any better. Also, attraction comes hand in hand with stares.
A relationship between a son and the father is an important bond that passes down morals and values. And with a mother, children learn how to be compassionate and empathetic. It prevents people from going overboard into a self-indulgent down spiral of dopamine rushes. Without traditional values or morals, people submit themselves to acts of pleasure of which they create their own values in order to be contempt with doing those actions. Instead of actively trying to better themselves, it's easier to be contemptuous with being sick and you can't do anything to change it. The idea you should accept everyone for who they want to be has unleashed ideological diseases that corrupt minds into a weakness. There are two types of people who profit from spreading diseases. People in power such as government, and big corporations, who know it's easier to control weak-minded citizens, and the mentally ill who seek nothing but gratification from a community of like-minded degenerates, the corrupted youth. The powerful people spread it by advertising it on their logos, their commercials, and on social media. The powerful people gain the high ground out of their competitors with their newfound “correct morality “ that the mob is so easily inclined to love. The weak spread it in order to fulfill a meaningless purpose of being kind with “acceptance”. It does nothing to empower or to encourage people to improve themselves. They invent spectrums and transgenderism in order to explain the new found mental problems they acquired from a poor family structure. Of which they seek newer more complicated identifiers to find their place in society. They require more gratification, like it’s a drug. It's easier to create less intricated, easier to understand, and “morally correct” reasons on a foundation of “acceptance” than to explain and maintain traditional ones that have been passed down for generations. For example “love is love” is a simple and widely accepted term as “be with who you want to be with”, but where is the limit? Can people love animals? Children? How can this “love” not be a pervasive lust for a relationship from a desperate mentally ill human being? As time goes on, values without morals corrupt the youth as there are no standards. The importance of historical figures and their lessons will in time be removed due to the disease wanting to erase the past so as to completely eradicate any possibility of a philosophical antidote arising. The fewer restrictions the disease has to go through, the more it can multiply until it destroys society. And the only ones left to profit are the people pulling the strings from positions of government that were put there by people thinking they were doing the right thing, but for all the wrong reasons..
It's human nature for our eyes to be drawn to things that stand out, that are different from our expectations. When most people see a male body with a female presentation, their brain experiences a mismatch and is startled, trying to evaluate the situation and make sure it's safe. As social and tribal creatures, humans are well-evolved to sniff out people who are pretending to be something they are not, similar to the uncanny valley. This process can result either in the brain deciding that there is no threat and letting it's guard down, or it can heighten feelings of fear, disgust, and anger to motivate you to move away from the undesired stimulus. From the outside, if you're insecure, this unconcious surprise-deciding process looks a lot like a death stare.

As a cis woman, this brought me back to my teenage years… is my nose too big? Legs too fat? Got to wear heels because of my tree stump legs. I wonder how much of the anxiety is misogyny and how much is transphobia. Double whammy. These beautiful women deserve so much more from society.
Keep in mind that you didn’t go through a male puberty, while many of us did. So it just adds layers upon layers of insecurity on top of the already high levels of anxiety that we all as women feel.
It kills me to see all these negative comments on this video. Transgender people have valid reasons to be paranoid when walking out in public. Transgender women were being killed because they’re trans. They get rude stares just because they look/are different from ‘societal norm’. I personally have experienced this, and I’m only 14. I get clear, disgusted stares from strangers who drive past me while I wait for the bus just because I wear my preferred clothing. Don’t go around bashing people saying that their paranoia is warranted. Do you know what it’s like to be treated like like this? No? Then you don’t have a right to judge them.
Women get killed because they are women. Tens of thousands a year. Rude stares for many women is a societal norm. They are men who want to be called "women" but also want the male privilege that goes along with being a man. Why should they get both, when women don't?
@@kai-jm7bb are you hearing yourself? dignity and basic respect is mutual, no matter what you identify as. male privilege? cis women also want to be treated as equals to men, it’s not exclusive, you know!
The men who react badly or violently after discovering that you are trans or after being slighted for talking to a transwoman by a heterosexual man or woman are clearly just not confident in having their sexuality questioned. And to be honest most men aren't confident in this way. I'm pretty open and liberal and would never react badly, but I might want to have the last word where I let it be known that I'm heterosexual, and I imagine this is something that is deep-seated within almost all men. Some of the men who react badly may also be sexually interested in transwomen but not want to admit this to the world.
It's not bad for a man to be insecure in their sexuality. How often do they interact with homosexuals or transgenders? The sudden realization that it's actually a guy they're talking to us startling I'm sure too.

I am for trans ppl having equal rights and being treated fairly the problem is when u don't agree with them then they call u transphobic which a lot of ppl aren't......
Try being a cis woman who's 6'2" with broad shoulders and narrow hips. I'm 100% female and identify as such. Once, when I was a teenager, we were in a coffee shop and I had my legs stretched out under the table with my feet on the seat across from me. The waitress kept say "Sir! Sir!" I didn't respond, cuz I'm not "sir," so she continues, "Sir, or ma'am, or whatever you are... Please get your feet off the seat!" What?!? The?!? Actual?!? F***?!? "Whatever you are"?!? So remember, it's not just you. Don't take someone else's ignorance personal. Everybody feels like everyone is looking at them and judging them.

@@gummy5862 She said "Try being a cis woman", That is fully implying that her problem is worse, when in reality it isn't. Her problem fucking sucks but it is not what it is like to be trans, imagine that but every other day, and all trans people were considered "cis" at one point or another and trans women still face the hardships that most cis women do, so we understand the buffoonery that women endure everyday because of ignorant bastards. We are all women, but not all of us are Trans women, baseline is being cis is much easier to endure than being tans, trust and believe and again, go watch Pose, Paris is Burning, or 1968's The Queen and learn something about the trans community, please.
I think that trans people look so amazing that you just want to look at them all the time and they usually have a very feminine and nice way to dress. Nowadays many women are not confident and have body issues and when we see how trans people are dressing themselves and celebrate their look, its like getting motivated to love our femininity :)
That's how you know a particular situation is demonic. When you have no peace about it.

Since the pandemic started, I wore a mask everyday. Now that mandates are lifted, I still wear a mask. I still feel anxiety, always worried about people, but it’s become easier and easier. I manage to pass most of the time, sometimes people are unsure. I go out with cat ears all the time, which tends to attract attention... which sort of contradicts the point. Voice dysphoria has been a huge issue, but it has somewhat improved. I’m still hesitant to speak to people. I’m lucky to live in a relatively accepting area and place, many people have it very very hard
I understand the struggle because i get the same feeling but im female to male so its slightly easier but you never know what people are thinking. They may think your trans but they may think ok cool or they may look and smile in a nice way. You can never know what people are thinking .sure there are mean people but they may have positive thoughts when you think theyre negative

@Lujan logic?
Eh I've heard better transphobic jokes, try again, and be original please.
You choose the behavior you choose the consequences. If a hairy man wants to walk down the street in a dress, then people will give him the side eye. Walk down the street in a clown outfit then tell me I’m wrong. The logic of transgenderism is that we should ignore basic facts cause they may hurt someones feelings. Like the fact that the word gender is a synonym for sex and has been for 100s of years, or the fact that they don’t look like, act like, or actually do anything like women. You are literally judging people right now for thinking this weird delusion is BS making you a hypocrite. If you live in a culture that’s judgement free, then you’ll end up having murderers walking the streets freely. That’s where it leads.
Everybody judges everyone. Most women would not sex a bisexual man. They'll just consider him gay and never give him any. That's a judgment
It's so disheartening how LGBTQ+ people feel unsafe in public spaces. I just wish people weren't so bigoted in their beliefs. But for all those who see this, you are beautiful and strong.

Going after a straight man yea for sure it will not have positive feedback. He is straight.

Why a straight man it’s okay to be invalidated but a trans it’s not okay? They say be your true self, but they don’t want to be their true self, they want to be something else, which is fine, but you can’t force everyone to align with your self perception

I think some of the nonhateful response in the comments is coming from the fact that you took a camera out and filmed people's reactions and then read into them negatively. When you are insecure (in both senses, including not feeling safe) you're more likely to project what you're feeling onto other people. Brandi's interview was much more reasonable. She didn't assume everyone found her unattractive or that they were uncomfortable.
Also, in NYC you should expect most people to be walking around with RBF.
TheSongwritingCat Seriously. Take a camera out and judge people. Awesome way to behave.
Theo Dious lol ikr no self awareness
RBF? Reel Big Fish? I love that band! You know I'll walk around wearing their t-shirts!
When you see a piece of driftwood in Louisiana, it probably is not an alligator, but that does not mean that your gut reaction is any less understandable when you're shaken, thinking you'll get your arm torn off. Trans women get enough comments, derisive stares, and threats of assault to condition them to read looks that *may* be neutral as negative. In addition to that, most trans women know how people react when you look gender conforming, so they'll have practice in knowing when people read them as gender non-conforming. The point of combining the shots of people's looks with the commentary about negative reactions was not to accuse the people in those shots of being transphobic, but to give you an insight into what it's like to be looked at as a trans woman and never knowing, always having these thoughts. Practice just a little bit of empathy and critical thinking.
@@obermegalutschoar I dont think the staring as shown in this video is anywhere near reality. Thats just not how people act. Most people dont stare for long periods of time at anyone because they know its considered rude. The other thing is, most people dont care and they have much more important things on their minds.
I am Trans myself, Trans male to be clear. What these people said in the video is exactly what I have to go through every day. I hope the best for everyone.

@@Marceline-q1h thanks
@@LgbtqSupport-gh1wr Ok now I'm a bit curious. Why can't you stay female? Why do you want to change something that is essentially embedded into your DNA? Wanting to change genders is often the result of severe trauma, to escape a problem you experienced in your early life. Or to say that you're happy mutilating your body physically and chemically is a complete lie. HRT is known to cause severe chemical imbalances in the brain and it results in depressions for them years down the line. That's why there's no long term study, because too many un-alive themselves from their mistakes and realize they CAN'T go back and fix it. Listen if you need someone to talk to, I'm here. Don't throw your life away.
Don't listen to ppl. Be the beautiful woman you are.

Black men felt the exact same way when I was younger every single day….in school, stores, malls, and living life. Daddy raised me to be proud of myself and that I belonged. Once I figured it out, I was okay and excelled at whatever I wanted. I didn’t worry about what others thought and I didn’t care about being accepted by anyone. Not my problem, only theirs.
that's best advice you can give. don't look for acceptance and you'll be happy.

I think trans people should be allowed to be safe to walk around as who they are, just let them live damn, they’re still a person
I agree leave them alone. Let trans people walk around as whatever they want to be. No problem with that at all. My ONLY issue with trans people are they want us to turn drop our beliefs in our strict binary gendered universe and embrace their multi-gendered universe. Trans genders need to take a page out of their own book and respect our rights to believe in a binary gendered reality! Live and let live.

I wouldn’t walk around by myself though and that is definitely a problem

Right on Jay!
I'm a gay man but I don't need to force people to use special made up pronouns to address me. Me being gay does not ask anyone to do anything but leave me alone and let me live my life with my gay peers in peace. Trans gender people want the world to stop using customary gendered pronouns or else. I don't think they will win this battle. It's like prohibition outlawing alcohol. The idea of gender being binary is ingrained in the culture it may never change.
I'd consider it a privilege too walk with you
I feel like they do, a little nervous about it, and I live up in Massachusetts I'm afraid to go down into the Southern States because I don't know what will happen I even meet violent people up here that are against me or whatever their problem is

Try being a trans woman and not passing at all. I started late in life because I am older (64) and being trans and young there was no discussion anywhere. At least where I was. My mom beat me for 13-14 year’s because when I was 3 or 4 (my first memories) is of my mom beating me and telling me I am not a girl. She kicked me out of the house at 16. I thought I was a freak and tried the “male thing”, I just wound up trying to commit suicide multiple times. I am 64 not and although I am transitioning now at times I still feel like a freak as everyone knows the gender I was born into and that according to them I must be a freak. It’s better now with more knowledge out there, but it can still be devastating I am sure.

Ok the one thing I dont like about this video is showing peoples reactions, We dont actually know what theyre looking at or what theyre thinking but this is making these strangers look bad. I stare at people when I walk around, Im not judging or being a dick about it but I like people watching.
I think the director of the film is just using the stares to artistically represent the paranoia trans people feel when being stared at. The slowness of the camera and the focus of the shot being centered in on the stare with the background blurred really drives the point home that they were looking. I did not get from this that the director was trying to make any opinion of the people starring and implying that they are thinking negative thoughts against the people they are starring at. What I got from this is that regardless of what these people were thinking that these trans people have to process this on a daily basis and wonder what other people are thinking about them while they're being starred at, even if it's just to look. I think this is mainly to emphasis the uncomfortableness of it all. I've had to speak in front of an audience of 200 people before. It's not the most comfortable feeling in the world.
You get so many stares like that when you're trans. It's not just one or two people and there's no way to say what they're thinking, but they're staring at you, and you can't say that people just have to pretend it's not happening because that's not how it works.

99% of passing is confidence. If you feel confidence in your womanhood, you act more naturally. Others pick up on this and are more apt to treat us like women.
The converse applies to trans men.
I'm a bit intersexed, and am a lesbian oriented transwoman. I worked hard on voice,looking,walking,smelling REAL. I am not only confident but ready. I live in NYC and had to deal with violence before transitioning. I workout and practice wing-chun self defense. I look and dress as an athletic femme.I embrace the goddess within . I have a subtle aura of don't mess with this bitch.

I am not a transgender but from my childhood, I still question things about inequality and injustice, including the patriarchy brainwashing and hypocrisy of our society. Quite late, because only few years ago I decided to finally express who I really am. In my heart, I always was a gender-bender, who adores feminine and androgynous look. Expressing yourself with fashion is such a powerful and tribal thing (I fell in love with Derek's look completely!). Great thing is that my partner supports me fully, and that's really powerful. But streets are different, and as long as I don't want anyone around me to feel uncomfortable and I am definitely afraid of any assaults, in the end I am the one who's feeling uncomfortable and just not in the right place. I am pushing it forward, including my dull and uniformed working place. If you think about it, it's just few attributes here and there, all on your skin, not someone's else, attached to your body, not someone's else. It's you who have the full autonomy, to think the way you think, to feel the way you feel and to perceive the world the way you do. No one should have a doubt those beautiful human beings are really brave, and deserve a lot of respect.
I hate that these trans ladies are scared and feel not safe.
I’ll be honest, besides a few weird looks and mean comments and laughs here and there, it really hasn’t been too bad for me, and some of those could’ve been about something else entirely (some of them were obviously about me being trans, though). I came out last year, so maybe things are getting better or maybe I pass well enough that most people don’t even realize I’m trans, but it hasn’t been too horrible for me tbh
Never feel ashamed when people don't know you are trans and hit on you. You don't have to disclose that information if you don't want to. Anyone who feels that you have to reveal you are trans to a person thinks that there is something inherently "homosexual" or "gay" being with a trans person. What draws you to a trans person is not the qualities of them being the same gender as you. It was the qualities of the opposite gender that drew you to them. So, if you think you are "gay" or "being tricked" because you are interacting with a trans person, you need to pause and think what drew you to that person? Was it the desire of being with the same gender or the opposite gender? If the answer was looking for the opposite gender, welcome to being just your regular straight self.
Rookielove1 and you are entitled to you opinion, but this also means you have a very limited view on gender. I'm not going to sit here and explain why that is problematic.

Everyone is not going to be excepted. I used to feel that everyone was gazing at me when I felt unsure about myself. One must find that confidence and not care what others think or feel about them. You can't and won't please everyone. 💯🙏🏽
I really don’t get what’s wrong with people. It’s like everyone has a brain the size of a chia seed. We’re different! Get over it
Learn to use your own logic.
@@kensteele3476 lol this comment makes no sense please explain
this is an amazing, educating video! i wish they would have had a trans man there aswell though, as i noice a distinct lack of representation in the community in that aspect
People are people regardless of their gender. Everyone deserves respect. I feel so bad for The LGBTQ community. No one should be mistreated for being who they are. Yes times are changing and people just need to except that. When I see trans people I see strength and bravery and admiration. It takes a lot of heart to be who you are and not everyone can admit that or handle that.
EVERYONE JESUS AND MARY APPEARED TO ME Please pray the rosary it saves lives and stops violence please do it and also pray for the animals who get abused everyday please do it because Mary and Jesus are real they appeared to me. Please pray the rosary and pray for animal abuse to stop and spread the word of god!!!Mary and Jesus helped me while I was living in a homophobic family
Not to hurt anyone’s feelings, but the truth needs to be said: Most normal people think trans people are weird. We don’t say anything to you, but we try to avoid you and we don’t see you as the sex you’re trying to copy.
ok mr. "carl heil hitler"
Well most normal people with a life don't give a fuck
Being self conscious about your own identity brings on a deep dread and paranoia that people are staring at you, judging you, that they can somehow tell you're trans by a momentary glance on the street, and you end up fearing strangers. The truth is, especially in NYC, no one is actually looking at YOU or giving any consideration at all to YOU. They are looking at everyone and everything but at nothing at the same time. If you make eye contact, they will too, but it means nothing. It's all in your head. There are so many androgynous looking people in a city. It is not novel or special. No one is actually staring at you. This is your own inner fear and insecurity that you need to overcome.
These women are amazing and gorgeous. As a transgender guy, hearing their stories made me very emotional and upset at the state of the world. I can relate to their stories as well, but in some ways more than others. I try to walk very fast so people don’t get a good look at me, and even though I’m closeted and pre-T, I very desperately want to look male. So I think to myself: if I just don’t speak, look them in the eyes, or show my appearance, they might think I’m a guy. And when people hear my high pitched voice, they have a lot of questions, from “are you a boy or girl?” to telling me I am a girl, to treating me like an “SJW” aggressive lesbian even though I don’t mention anything about my political views or sexuality. If I were to wish anything, it would be that people stop gendering and assuming things about me based on my appearance. Not a single person who has made assumptions about my appearance has clarified with me if they were right, they just assume because they’re cishet that they’re correct. When I’m in public I get this anxiety a lot, which is why I don’t go out much (I live in a very conservative country too), but people who see you on a regular basis and think they know me still think they have the right to be subtly transphobic. It frustrates me to no end, especially because their opinions on lgbtq people are negative and unchangeable, and of course I’m the victim because of that. If transphobes could live one day as a transgender person and experience the struggles we do, they would change their minds, but until then…
For anyone one who is trans or is in the lgbtq+ community, this is what I live by. "Haters gonna hate, when we show up, we get the sexy mission done" Everyone is handsome or beautiful in their own way. Don't let these phobic scaredy cats control who you are. Be yourself, no matter WHAT anyone says!❤❤
You too babe!💋
I'll be damned if I let a Transphobe kill my vibe. You gonna have to kill me periodt. 💅🏿💯
I Love and except people who have transitioned and who are going through it . you guys are excepted by me and loved .

@@jolinalee3887 this ^^^
@Chris Jones pov: you have no friends
As a regular woman I know it doesn’t take away fear of violence but, if trans women could just know, people look at women. A woman on stage with a band of men will always be the most magnetic person. People look at and are drawn to feminine energy. So it may be partly because you are coming across as feminine that people look at you.
I was raised to NOT stare at people.
No one should be eyeballing anyone long enough to realize anyone is trans or otherwise.
People are rude, tacky and intrusive as fuck.
Just mind your damn business!!!
Some of the stares might be bigotry, or something, sure. But, I believe a lot of that is just paranoia... for good reason in this point in time, but paranoia none the less. I think the bulk of it is more likely people giving the stink-eye for completely unrelated shit, like someone's outfit, getting within their personal bubble, or simply looking at them. People are getting more and more hands off, and I doubt cities are any better. Also, attraction comes hand in hand with stares.
A relationship between a son and the father is an important bond that passes down morals and values. And with a mother, children learn how to be compassionate and empathetic. It prevents people from going overboard into a self-indulgent down spiral of dopamine rushes. Without traditional values or morals, people submit themselves to acts of pleasure of which they create their own values in order to be contempt with doing those actions. Instead of actively trying to better themselves, it's easier to be contemptuous with being sick and you can't do anything to change it. The idea you should accept everyone for who they want to be has unleashed ideological diseases that corrupt minds into a weakness.
There are two types of people who profit from spreading diseases. People in power such as government, and big corporations, who know it's easier to control weak-minded citizens, and the mentally ill who seek nothing but gratification from a community of like-minded degenerates, the corrupted youth.
The powerful people spread it by advertising it on their logos, their commercials, and on social media. The powerful people gain the high ground out of their competitors with their newfound “correct morality “ that the mob is so easily inclined to love. The weak spread it in order to fulfill a meaningless purpose of being kind with “acceptance”. It does nothing to empower or to encourage people to improve themselves. They invent spectrums and transgenderism in order to explain the new found mental problems they acquired from a poor family structure. Of which they seek newer more complicated identifiers to find their place in society. They require more gratification, like it’s a drug. It's easier to create less intricated, easier to understand, and “morally correct” reasons on a foundation of “acceptance” than to explain and maintain traditional ones that have been passed down for generations. For example “love is love” is a simple and widely accepted term as “be with who you want to be with”, but where is the limit? Can people love animals? Children? How can this “love” not be a pervasive lust for a relationship from a desperate mentally ill human being?
As time goes on, values without morals corrupt the youth as there are no standards. The importance of historical figures and their lessons will in time be removed due to the disease wanting to erase the past so as to completely eradicate any possibility of a philosophical antidote arising. The fewer restrictions the disease has to go through, the more it can multiply until it destroys society. And the only ones left to profit are the people pulling the strings from positions of government that were put there by people thinking they were doing the right thing, but for all the wrong reasons..
It's human nature for our eyes to be drawn to things that stand out, that are different from our expectations. When most people see a male body with a female presentation, their brain experiences a mismatch and is startled, trying to evaluate the situation and make sure it's safe. As social and tribal creatures, humans are well-evolved to sniff out people who are pretending to be something they are not, similar to the uncanny valley. This process can result either in the brain deciding that there is no threat and letting it's guard down, or it can heighten feelings of fear, disgust, and anger to motivate you to move away from the undesired stimulus. From the outside, if you're insecure, this unconcious surprise-deciding process looks a lot like a death stare.

Life is hard period. for everyone.
There are people who live on the street, drug addicts,
starvation in 3rd world Countries, This is a choice that was made
by you, so you best develop a thick skin and deal with it. People will always
look and stare because it's not normal. I'm not trying to be mean, but people
can't help to stare because you look unnatural, no matter how much make up, hair,
extensions, nails, and skimpy clothes you wear, you still look unauthentic. It takes more courage
to be who you really are and work from there. To be happy with yourself. Now *that's* loving yourself forreal.
And yet remaining confident is always key! So much that comes with being a trans women

Pretty pretty accurate, as a Young trans women I had felt that paranoia of people looking judging our looks because of Male-born traits the 99% of times I go out, also always thinking that every time some one tell me pretty, they do it because feeling bad for me and doesn't wanting to make me feel sad

Transphobia hurts everyone
They safe with me but I will not give them credit as a woman EVER! Ppl stare periodT and nobody is safe in this cruel world of evil.
I am a cis black women with trans girlfriends. The looks they get are intense.
No one has been rude, thank God!! I'd go off if they did.
As a cis woman, this brought me back to my teenage years… is my nose too big? Legs too fat? Got to wear heels because of my tree stump legs. I wonder how much of the anxiety is misogyny and how much is transphobia. Double whammy. These beautiful women deserve so much more from society.
Keep in mind that you didn’t go through a male puberty, while many of us did. So it just adds layers upon layers of insecurity on top of the already high levels of anxiety that we all as women feel.
It kills me to see all these negative comments on this video. Transgender people have valid reasons to be paranoid when walking out in public. Transgender women were being killed because they’re trans. They get rude stares just because they look/are different from ‘societal norm’.
I personally have experienced this, and I’m only 14. I get clear, disgusted stares from strangers who drive past me while I wait for the bus just because I wear my preferred clothing.
Don’t go around bashing people saying that their paranoia is warranted. Do you know what it’s like to be treated like like this? No? Then you don’t have a right to judge them.
Women get killed because they are women. Tens of thousands a year. Rude stares for many women is a societal norm. They are men who want to be called "women" but also want the male privilege that goes along with being a man. Why should they get both, when women don't?
@@kai-jm7bb are you hearing yourself? dignity and basic respect is mutual, no matter what you identify as. male privilege? cis women also want to be treated as equals to men, it’s not exclusive, you know!
The men who react badly or violently after discovering that you are trans or after being slighted for talking to a transwoman by a heterosexual man or woman are clearly just not confident in having their sexuality questioned. And to be honest most men aren't confident in this way. I'm pretty open and liberal and would never react badly, but I might want to have the last word where I let it be known that I'm heterosexual, and I imagine this is something that is deep-seated within almost all men. Some of the men who react badly may also be sexually interested in transwomen but not want to admit this to the world.
It's not bad for a man to be insecure in their sexuality. How often do they interact with homosexuals or transgenders? The sudden realization that it's actually a guy they're talking to us startling I'm sure too.
Let's not ignore the Fact that actual "Turning" a str8 guy is very appealing accomplishment in the gay community. Gay Guys Like Streight guys.
@@alanahlahlah1684 uuuuuum.... how the hell did you start thinking that?
@@JC-ce8fn oooh you don't know.. its a fact... you may act as you don't know or you really don't know... Its a prize to true a straight guy. it's like take a woman's virginity
@@alanahlahlah1684 And straight woman like gay men. And straight men like lesbians. And lesbians like straight woman. Idk if you know this but people normally want what they can’t have. Doesn’t mean they are trying to change them. Just that they are attracted to them.
I am for trans ppl having equal rights and being treated fairly the problem is when u don't agree with them then they call u transphobic which a lot of ppl aren't......
Try being a cis woman who's 6'2" with broad shoulders and narrow hips. I'm 100% female and identify as such. Once, when I was a teenager, we were in a coffee shop and I had my legs stretched out under the table with my feet on the seat across from me. The waitress kept say "Sir! Sir!" I didn't respond, cuz I'm not "sir," so she continues, "Sir, or ma'am, or whatever you are... Please get your feet off the seat!"
What?!? The?!? Actual?!? F***?!? "Whatever you are"?!?
So remember, it's not just you. Don't take someone else's ignorance personal. Everybody feels like everyone is looking at them and judging them.
At least you were born in the right body with the right genitalia, and if someone says it to a trans person it is even more hurtful.
@@ivyabbott1695 It’s really not. It’s a completely different topic, don’t bog down someone else’s experiences because you think somebody else has it “worse”.
@@gummy5862 I'm assuming you aren't trans, so you really don't have a say in whether or not it is more hurtful for us on a psychological level because you could never even imagine what it is like to walk a day in our shoes, you should watch pose or Paris is burning or 1968's the queen, learn a thing or two about the trans community.
@@ivyabbott1695 And you’re not a 6’2 biological woman so why do you think you have a right to tell her that her problems aren’t as bad? ☠️ I swear, the narcissism and victimhood is radiating off of you. She didn’t even say whether or not her problems were worse or “better”, she was simply saying she could relate to an extent.
@@gummy5862 She said "Try being a cis woman", That is fully implying that her problem is worse, when in reality it isn't. Her problem fucking sucks but it is not what it is like to be trans, imagine that but every other day, and all trans people were considered "cis" at one point or another and trans women still face the hardships that most cis women do, so we understand the buffoonery that women endure everyday because of ignorant bastards. We are all women, but not all of us are Trans women, baseline is being cis is much easier to endure than being tans, trust and believe and again, go watch Pose, Paris is Burning, or 1968's The Queen and learn something about the trans community, please.
you cant change the way people see you, you can only change the way you present yourself to the outside world
No one should feel they have to change based on other peoples stares or comments.
@@marymargaretblumhorst5359 maybe, but that’s not the way the world is
I think that trans people look so amazing that you just want to look at them all the time and they usually have a very feminine and nice way to dress. Nowadays many women are not confident and have body issues and when we see how trans people are dressing themselves and celebrate their look, its like getting motivated to love our femininity :)
Soo… they switch a term for black people “shopping while black” and just free ball it. So that makes this a trend
Transgender people are so brave. They face so many challenges just to be themselves. It is heartbreaking.
@not here Yeah they are. They have to face so many bullies like you just to be themselves. That is bravery
@not here Nazis hurt people. Remind me again who transgender people oppress?

Since the pandemic started, I wore a mask everyday. Now that mandates are lifted, I still wear a mask. I still feel anxiety, always worried about people, but it’s become easier and easier. I manage to pass most of the time, sometimes people are unsure.
I go out with cat ears all the time, which tends to attract attention... which sort of contradicts the point. Voice dysphoria has been a huge issue, but it has somewhat improved. I’m still hesitant to speak to people. I’m lucky to live in a relatively accepting area and place, many people have it very very hard
I understand the struggle because i get the same feeling but im female to male so its slightly easier but you never know what people are thinking. They may think your trans but they may think ok cool or they may look and smile in a nice way. You can never know what people are thinking .sure there are mean people but they may have positive thoughts when you think theyre negative
