LMAOAMAOMALAMLAMAOMAOA I WISH
Getting my first binder this week :)
How is it?
AMAZING
awesome
get me one too please
Congrats!
Thank you Jamie, you're a huge inspiration, I'm 15 and my parents say I can't start testosterone until I'm 18 so I can finish developing naturally, which I understand but like you I'm a pretty impatient person.
You're welcome, thank you! I know those three years will seem like an age, but 18 is still really young to have things figured out and be on testosterone! It is also good that your parents are open to you starting testosterone. All the best with everything :)
I have to wait 6 year to be put on a 3 year long waiting list so... yay?
Haymitch Abernathy same
NICKname I’m 13 and my mum said I have to wait till I’m I’m 18 too 😭
Are you 18 :0
"well the first thing is taking T" i died :D
being a cis female with a trans (FTM) best friend, thank you so much fo this video. He has about 4 years until he can start T and i want to help him anyway I can. Thank you again for making this video.
Whish I had a frind like you...
Thanks for caring
God bless you, kind soul ❤
It’s been 4 years...hope your friend is starting T
I’m seeing this 4 years later..........CONGRATULATIONS
Did he start T yet?
I'm not even trans, but I love your videos! And it's always good to learn new stuff just in case I come across a trans person, that way I won't seem as uneducated as many cis people :D
Anherika we need more people like you in the world
Thanks! just getting it can help a person so tremendously
Anherika trust me I thought I wasn't trans....I was very wrong you never know
Wow, coming from a trans person with a lot of unaccepting people around me, that means a lot. Thank you.
You are one of the most handsome guys I've ever seen.
One of the things that helped me realise I was trans was when I was shaving my legs in the bath and decided to shave my face instead. It felt nice. I also don't shave my pits and legs nearly as often. But I want top surgery more than I want T right now since i'm really large chested so that's an even longer wait :(
hitmewithacliche I'm large chested too. Idc about T at all atm. all want is top surgery rn. 5 years left til i can 😒
@@Immortalbeats7 It's been 5 years have you got top surgery?
I'm not trans myself, but I want to be educated in things like this. Schools don't teach you (mine don't) and I'm curious. Plus I'm writing a fanfiction about being transgender, and I don't want to be uneducated or incorrect. I love all you all the way you want to be. ❤☺
How's the fic going?
it's 2 years until i'm old enough to start testosterone, but idk if i can come out to my parents in that time span :/
spencer hughes omg same
can you start t yet?
been 2 years buddy how are you with the t
DUDE ARE YOU ON T??
Have you come out and started T yet? I hope everything is going well!
Thanks a lot. I'm pre T. I just messaged a gender therapist about a week ago. Being in Germany it will be quite tough to get on T, but I'm positively working towards it. It's frustrating though that I don't really have enough money to buy new clothes and stuff, so I just end up in a girly-ish shirt for a day which is really uncomfortable... but I'm getting there... i'm wearing my first pair of boxers today (which i got in my advent calendar), just went into the boy's toilet at school for the first time last week, and am looking forward for some new clothes on Christmas.
All in all I am just so happy and comfortable finally being able to present as myself and that's simply amazing. :)
Luke Mott I'm a trans boy in Germany too, but I don't know how to get a gender therapist here or even get testosterone.. Any help?
Ryu Allen i know this is late but go to your doctor
Thanks for the video! I'm pre-T now and will be for at least the next 3 years sadly.
same
Ouch. I have about one and half yaer wait. But at least when the wait is over you will have proven it's not 'just a phase.'
Alex Creed that sucks, my parents are transphobic so I can't even get short hair or a binder and it sucks, but people have it worse, I'm coping
WelcomeToTheCringeParade FT. Dan and Phil Get short hair and a binder anyway. If your parents don't care about your wellbeing they should not be controlling you like this.
Frank Aspergeek Withnail thanks but, I can't, like, there isn't any way I can, but thanks any way
I love watching your videos. Your really inspiring. I am hoping that one day I can come out to my parents cause I am terrified over what could happen. Watching your videos actually gives me courage and I feel like telling my mum.
I'll never be able to get on T, so yay. my blood would like freak out and clot and woo forever anime girl voice and hips.
woo.
August Lilly Is there any way you could get fat redistributed via liposuction? I'm not sure if that's a possibility for you or not but I know some surgeons do body masculinization so you might be able to look into that.
Kayla Burney wait what? over weight people can't take T?
HeyThereImPaige! Oh, sorry, I was unclear, that wasn't what I was implying, overweight people can certainly take T. I was saying that if they couldn't get on T and they got body dysphoria bc of their hips etc they might be able to have that fixed via surgery/liposuction. Sorry for the confusion :p
Kayla Burney Ohh!! thank you!
HeyThereImPaige! No problem haha
Your my second favorite trans guy! My first is
me!
Human Bill Cipher awwww thats cool!
Into the butt, Shrek Senpai A+ for self esteem and confidence!
I shave my nonexistent beard too! It definitely helps when I'm not feeling very manly.💈
Thank you Jammidodger!! I'm 15 and I did get a referral to the gender clinic at the children's hospital finally after two years of socially transitioning and after the doctors on the air force base signed off on it. I'm waiting for the referral as of today to finalize so mom can make an appointment. Your videos have really helped me through my two years of waiting. I'm hoping to get on T soon.
omg first person, I've never clocked on a video so fast, thanks for this!
😃

your pfp!!
Hey fam
danke
I have a problem. So I'm trans and Pre-T and all that, which is fine, I can wait a little while longer to start. My issue is that I still really like to wear skirts and dresses, to get my nails painted, and wax my eyebrows. My mom says that "real" men don't do that stuff. I think we can. My friends think we can. I really want to be able to pass and to go into the men's restroom, but I still want to keep my style. I've been hurt by men in the past and I'm afraid it'll happen again if I continue to dress the way I like. What do I do?
If you're afraid to go to the bathroom find a local bathroom with only one stall, like at a restaurant. Be you and explain yourself. If they say you can't be then be patient, if they love you they will learn to accept you. Try to go into family or handicapped single room restrooms only. I hope I helped.
ThunderWingPony im trans too. And I say do what you want man... Men wear makeup, Men can wear skirts, men can get their nails done... Dont let others tell you how to live your best life
Look into being non-binary.
Hey so I know that you probably won't see this because you have a lot of subscribers and you most likely don't read all of the comments but I just really wanted to thank you for making videos and documenting everyday life being trans. It was your videos (or, rather, your video on Buzzfeed) that made me start exploring gender and helped me realize that I'm trans. I know that this seems like the really cheesy "thank you" youtube comment, but your videos have really impacted me for the better. Keep making videos!!!
I think it's important to not forget about the rest of the world. T isn't everything, even though it seems like it now. T won't make you happy on it's own, it's just one aspect of your life. You need friends, family, bf/gf, study/work, life goals and dreams etc. If you've neglected all that the T-shot suddenly won't feel as wonderful. Your gender identity is just one part of you.
I have to wait 6 years untill i can get on a waiting list so I can wait 3 yeafs for T. In ten years I will be on T...
At the beginning I thought you said "A guide to be pretty" and I was like "WTF I mean you're beautiful but why" 😂
I remember watching this Video just after it came out... Well, years later and I'm still not on T, dont know if i ever will be, i still dont even know if I'm really trans, everything is still so scary, guess it will ever be... Revisiting this video gave me a small emotional lift tho, thanks bro!
I know the action of shaving helps me, because it's such a masculine thing. Also, on average only women and children have peach fuzz, so having a smooth face just kind of felt better for me
This is really helping me. Thank you again for your videos. I'm telling my sister my plans this week...that's the last step with the family. The most important one for me. Then once I get moved this summer and start a new jobs I'll make the other steps. The ones for my body. Please keep these videos coming.
I just stumbled across your channel and I just wanted to say you're pretty rad! I'm having my first appointment with a gender specialist in a week, so hopefully I'll be on track to be on T by the time I'm 18!
grate video Jamie a good reminder that to stay busy rather than waiting. can u also do a video on choosing your first male haircut. I've always had my haircut by a family friend and now I want to go to the barbers but Im nervous plus I have thick course hair and am not sure what to get/products to buy?
My mom got mad when I talked about T she said it would mess up my body, she not the most sportive person on me being transgender my dad still calls me girl because he wanted one and I messed that up.
Awkward Dinosaur M33 same here sadly
You didn't mess it up, your just you. You were born a boy assigned a girl because of genitalia. If you had male genatalia your dad wouldn't call you a girl most likely.
Super nervous, and I don't know when I'm going to start T but I know it'll be soon! And I'm hella excited
I'm 31 years old and I am pre T and I have been working out like crazy and trying to build muscle and I am impatient and I can't wait to start T.
Hey Jamie ur videos have inspired me a lot..it has certainly changed my view towards trans people...m glad to have come across your videos...😃😃
Jamie, you're my favorite trans issues RUclipsr. Thanks so much for the vids!
I’m not trans but I have dysphoria, and your videos are very helpful :)
This made me feel better, I don't know how long I'm going to have to wait but I know it'll have to be a while. But I know it will be worth it in the end.
Just found your channel today, thank you for your vids. Coming to terms with gender stuff a bit late as a 22 year old has been challenging, but vids like these remind me to keep my head up. Thank you!
Looking at other people on T made me intensely jealous [especially if they were younger than me or had a shorter wait, I had a six year wait and I still can't believe it didn't become seven] but you know what did help me? Voice practices and playing with how deep I could make my voice.
Juuuust don't record it and play it back -- your own voice always sounds deeper than it actually is and if you have very strong voice dysphoria like I do, it will be jarring, possibly the opposite effect.
Can you do a vid on how to deal with unaccepting parents , my parents won't accept that I'm trans and the litterly have to be someone I'm not because of my parents what do I do ??
It's even worse when your parents won't let you and you have to wait until your 18 only to wait some more
Hi Jamie! I shave my face every so often. Even though it is only fine peach hair I find it is a useful full psychological trick which helps when the dysphoria is really bad (like when I get the curse - tried the pill continuous to get rid of that but female hormones make my brain depressed).
Ok but like as a pre-T trans guy, the one thing I want to keep femme is the ability to make my voice go high, imagine seeing me, like 5 years on T, singing the lyrics to girl in red or something. It will be so great to see the shock on everyone’s face when I start singing like “MaH GirL mAH giRL MaH GiRL”
I'm currently pre-T, but hopefully by the end of this year I'll be able to start it! Even though it's so far away, I'm excited.
"So the first thing is taking T twa Taking T?? That would be great, wouldn't it?"
Thanks so much for these videos! I am not trans but have the upmost respect for you 100%
this video actually made me cry wow
I just started T yesterday I'm so happy
Im turning 18 in a few months so i can officially start t. I am waiting for one more signature to allow me to start sooner. The wait has been so difficult! Thank you for this video- you made me smile!
Super excited because I have my first appointment with the endocrinologist in October! I can bearly wait :DD
Hope it goes well! :D
+Jammidodger thanks! I hope so too.
How wonderful it must be to finally feeling at home in your body after so many years feeling wrong. I am not Transgender, but I just wanted to compliment you on your cool youtube-channel and your cool beard. (If there is one thing I envy guys, it's the beard ;) )
Why can you never remember past #4 Jamie? 😂😂😂 I've watched 6 videos of you today that have lists and you always forget
On the waiting list, have to wait till March 2021
Another thing I found helpful, especially if you're not out, use the name you want to be called as your online name. If people reply to your comments, they'll use the name you want, and I found that helps me with the use feminine pronouns and my birth name in my life.
Hello, i'm 14, i'm from Uruguay (in south America) and I was born as a girl. I don't have the bravery to tell to my parents, I'm still so ashamed of being like this. Because I live in a very small town, I can't imagine people speaking at me like a boy, although it's my biggest dream. I've the hope, that one day, I will be able to tell the truth, and so, be who i am.
I was so inspirited by your change.
You're my role model.
(sorry for my English)
I spend my time doing art while waiting for testosterone
Your videos help me bc they make me feel happy and have hope that I will be on t some day and I just want to say thanks for that 💖
things i do: let my body hair grow out, shave my peach fuzz (which in return i got a tiny moustache), dress up in masculine clothing, and this sounds a bit silly but i would make a fake moustache and beard with eyeshadow (which looked fairly convincing from a distance)
im still pre-T and im not even close to coming out or getting a therapist ):
Kings2beat actually it grows back thicker. thats why when you get hair cuts more often it gets healthier.
i bought myelf my first binder today and im not exaggerating when i say i look like ive already gotten top surgery. im so happy rn
Not able to get T right now, because I'm a minor. I'm still 13, but I'm getting a hair cut sometime soon, within the next 2 weeks. I have a binder, i work out more, and Im saving up for new clothes. I don't shave my hair at all, except for shaving my non-existent beard hair 😂😂 This is very inspirational for me :)
I'm pre-T and still got around 12 months to wait until i see a GIC, going to try for a bridging prescription, and i'm changing my name soon :)
has anyone ever told you that your eyes are amazing ? and thanks for this video :3
I already did these things... still have crippling bipolar disorder and transphobic parents... at least i'm graduating school this year... then i'll have 1 more year until i'm free.
thx jamie this really helped me 😁👍👍
Were gonna have swimming lessons in school, in about two weeks. Wo.
I was honesty very jealous of a friend who was starting T when I met him. He's documenting his journey on a page. I told him about me being jealous because I saw all the changes thst he was experiencing and reading about the changes he had. He told me that I shouldn't be jealous.
I'm not trans but still i love this videos !! I love them idk why ?
I can't even cut my hair because I'm worried about what my family will say...
I have to wait a year to get in the system so I can wait for another six years to be old enough so i can wait for another three years for getting T. So basically i'm going to wait ten years for T.
I’m not trans but I’m watching these videos to understand things 🥰 so that I can make my boyfriend feel better
i just started t and im so grateful
im only 15 and i remember watching your videos pre coming out and i showed my parents your videos
Person: i feel like a boy and am uncomfortable as a girl
Doc: H E R E S T H E M O T H E R F U C K I N G T
I think it's gonna happen soon for me I can feel it 😄
there is a short article about you in German news time online magazine :D (on facebook.. 'focus online digital ')
a german*
I have three more years till I can start T, been waiting two years already yikesyikes
I'M FUCKING DYING AT 0:43 😂😂😂
Planning on starting T some time after someday getting my first binder. I'm 20 years old and my family does not support me at all. Got to the point it would just be a huge argument and I decided I won't bring it up with my mom. I got yhe answer I was after for (family illnesses etc for the risks).
I just started today...holy
Thank you!
thanks so much. I went to my GP about 5 months ago and i am still waiting for a letter for my initial assessment. I do bind, pack and do most of the other things you suggest (except work out as i'm lazy AF). just with it would go quicker :-(
I need to come out, but I'm sure after I've came out my parents will get me a binder and probably start me on T eventually
hannah baer did you come out to your parents yet? Did they get you a binder and get you on T? I need updates!
I'm trans I am ftm but I haven't came out. I am scared of being rejected. The only thing I don't like is changing my birth name it has a nice meaning to it. My name (Abbigail) is not unisex. I'm 12 but I know I am trans I hate my hair being long I hate my breasts I hate wearing girly things I have always wanted to be a boy but i really need advice
Jace Jordan have you thought of the name Gabriel, I think it’s as beautiful as Abbigail. And not liking your hair being long, or girly clothes doesn’t mean you’re a trans guy necessarily. But not liking your breasts does and always wanting to be a boy too. Guys can have long hair and I’m a trans guy that loves dresses, make up and girly accessories. But I understand not everyone is the same. I also understand the fear of being rejected. If you haven’t come out yet, then just wait until you’re in a stable, safe environment, like living out of home and having a decent income, that means you must be an adult. I get that waiting till then is painfully difficult, but I believe you can get through it. We both can 😁
this is a really useful video for me, even tho its a few years old lol. my mom says i should wait til I'm 18 to start HRT and surgeries, I'm 15 and turning 16 this year in September. I'm considering trying to tell her i want to begin quicker than 18 but I don't know how it'll go. i also can't get a binder yet, but i have a few cami tank tops so i can try that method for now.
and just an fyi she has/has wanted to deadname me on purpose sometimes simply because i didnt come when she called
and she almost never uses MY name on me, only calls me "boo"/"booboo" 98% of the time... so no i wouldn't rate her to be the most supportive
Ok so I'm FtM and it all my friends and family don't know. I'm planning to tell them in highschool. Any tips for beginners?
ImAF0rk Games
(I'm 13 tomorrow and haven't told my family yet) What I would do is hint until your confident to tell them e.g. when you go shopping together say 'hey mum this looks nice' and point at the clothing (pink, flannels, cargo pants (don't know your gender)) or with your hair persuade your parents to give you a cut like some off the boys in class or grow to shoulder length. Best luck 😊
Gonna start T in 2155 can't wait 😊
"the first thing would be taking t" I CHOKED HAHA PLS
I want to be an ftm and my parents will not support me on it. How can I convince them? I will start T when I am 18 or 19 whether they support me or not but I really want them to support me
I will be able to start T when i'm 18 and i'm almost 17
ugh I have to wait for t till I'm 18 (I'm 15 going on 16 soon) I promised myself I'd do it when I was an adult but seeing all my trans friends who are in highschool taking t makes me feel panicked like yikes!!
Hi Bro. were could i buy some testosterone ?? i would like to start and ask my doctor if its ok. btw im in ph :)
Im trans-masculine demi-guy how do i look more masculine?
Corey Kuefler - ter Weeme pssst, word of the wise, not everyone understands (or accepts) all the gender identity mumbo jumbo. Just say you’re a trans tomboy. Much easier to understand. And if you wanna look more masculine, just wear more typically masculine clothing and cologne, get your hair cut masculine (if you haven’t already) and remember to not use hand gestures when talking as often or sit like a lady (legs crossed or knees together). And yes, I do know the gender identity mumbo jumbo. I once thought I was a demi guy too. (I’m not saying you’re confused tho, I accept your identity as yours)
I'm really new to this but will a person take T for the rest of their lives?
I don't know why you remind me so much of David Mitchell (the comedian), only much much younger and prettier ;)
My parents think this is just a phase. I want to start T.
•>• my most common thing to do is poke them with a stick and say "It's not a phase." I mean- my brother said me being trans was just a phase and i said "Nice opinion, noe dont talk to me unless you can call me my real name not [deadname]"
How do you use T? I am Transgender (Female to Male) and deciding to get T
Hey Jamie! I have a question... Would you regret what you've done or nah?
No regrets at all
Does T cost money in England? I just presumed not bc we have NHS but does NHS cover it?
Hey Jamie! I have a question! What type of testosterone did you take? Pills? Injections..?
Hey, I am on a gel form of Testosterone called Testogel, I used to be on injections though, but switched over because of my levels being too high.
+Jammidodger Is there any difference?
Any tips on how to workout as a big guy pre T and pre top surgery I’m very top heavy 😭
i want to come out but i cant. because of that i cant get a binder
I haven't come out at school yet because the last person was beat up till he moved so I have to wait till after high school. how do I wait for someone I know I am but can't be
