@@feelsreel lol yeah cus trans people stop getting opressed when they become adults I guess we forgot dude
Im thoroughly impressed she managed to sing this entire thing without bursting into tears cause i sure as fuck cant
She posted a clip of her recording this on Instagram and said she could finally sing this without crying 😢

This song really makes me feel that and I end up tearing up...
listened to this on the bathroom floor yesterday during a dysphoria breakdown. it’s too real.
3 times a day sometimes more
This song reminds me of a trans girl who worked night shifts at the grocery store I used to go to. I always used to go in the middle of the night to get some late night snackies so I ended up seeing her a lot, except I thought she was just an awkward guy with long hair. One night I went in and saw her wearing makeup, and it really totally changed my perception of her. She seemed so much more confident and free. I can't imagine how hard it is to be trans when you're young and figuring things out. This song does a great job at illuminating it.
That’s so sweet
@Harry Beaver fuck off asshole you will never kno the euphoria of breaking through arbitrary societal barriers... stop being a dick, you'll go back to not having an evil soul
@Harry Beaver shut the fuck up transphobe
Harry Beaver shut up transphobe not everybody is close minded like you
Harry Beaver LMAO YOUR PLAYLISTS HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
laura is such a special and important human
Krystal Methodist honestly
ikr
my favorite pastime is scrolling thru comments on this song and seeing how many people commented "i don't have gender dysphoria" only to edit them and say "nvm i had gender dysphoria"
I might be the only one who doesn’t have gender dysphoria who loves this song. It lets me understand the transgender experience a little bit more as a queer cis man. I love Laura
@@beans_avi9382any updates on this?
@beans_avi9382 I'm a straight cis dude and this song is just great, love Laura's earlier stuff and how it's produced and that
@@TheGOAT-j9u I’m not saying anything definitive for you but I think you should know that I thought the exact same thing five years ago and now I am transgender.
@maxdriever7668 I like being a guy I have no discomfort from being a guy, I would feel discomfort being the opposite gender though, I just think you guys make good music if you haven't listened to underscores yet you should if you like gecs
This is a really good song. It paints a really clear picture on a topic I've never really had to consider
This is exactly how I feel
ima bi dude n this song makes me really emotional, this is the kind of shit we need if we wanna be a more empathetic understanding generation
@Navarro Dodge this is technically the right version of the song. The whole beach ep has one version that’s more sped up than the other
@Navarro Dodge theres 3 versions, the demo version, this one, and the new version which is faster
This is the exact sort of song I gotta listen to at 3 AM at max volume while bawling my eyes out
It's ok. It'll get better. You'll pass, and even if you don't, you're beautiful.

I'm (as far as I know) a straight white man. However, I cry with this song everytime I hear it. The feeling of isolation and alienation from yourself is something I've struggled with my whole life. Hearing Laura genuinely put her emotions into these lines (now I look stupid...) always brings me back to that feeling of being 11 going to grab a knife because I couldn't understand why I felt so much and why I seemed to feel this world differently. It's almost like a cry: like "hey, I'm here and I'm fucking trying but it's not enough and it never will be."
I empathize with you Laura. Thank you for the music.
hope you are doing well
@@Nobody-fb7ni I was a little blunt in my statement, and I guess I'm not sure. I guess it defends how you classify it, which is why I hate this shit.
What I mean by that is this: I'm a cis-man, and I'm mainly attracted to feminine energy. That means I can be attracted sexually and romantically to cis women or trans women or anybody that displays traits we consider "feminine" in the west.
So, if I'm attracted to the qualities that make a "woman" a "woman" (if we want to be very simplistic with it) then I guess that makes me straight. But, then is it gay to have sex with a woman that has a penis? Is it gay to be turned on to a penis?
That's why it sucks and asking "am I gay" or "am I straight" doesn't work all the time. I've had sex with cis-men and have found it to be something I don't enjoy or enjoy far less than sex with cis, trans and non-binary people that have a prominent "feminine" energy. I also don't really see myself having/wanting a romantic relationship with a male gendered (Idgaf about sex of the person ) partner at this stage in my life.
So, I wish I had an easier answer for you, but I think the paradigm of how we understand the complexes that feed into our sexuality need to be shifted first. Like how ASD and it's terminology have evolved to be a spectrum of a broader understanding and categorization of the people that inhabit it.
In the end, Gay or Straight are just the same made up human conventions as things like race. It's just a way of creating outsiders and creating systems that create buffers for the elites at the top. Easier to get away fucking over your populace when they're busy hating eachother. But, them and their social systems exist now and will for a long time so we just have to find a way to somehow work through it.
@@Nobody-fb7ni Do you think that the sex of the person your attracted to factors into the sexual binary presented? Is it gay to be attracted to a penis as a cis man or gay to be attracted to a vagina as a cis woman. Does gender identity matter more to you than sexual organs. That's what I mean, you saying it's not gay is the same problem as saying it is. It's categorizing something in a way to allow us to differentiate from eachother in an unhealthy way. Gay or straight is an unhealthy paradigm to fit things into.
Anything not cis people having sex with cis people of the opposite gender and sex is considered gay by the way the system was set up. The whole point of "straight" is to create the outlier of "gays." If we continue to claim things as being "gay" or "not gay" when it comes to these non-binarized perspectives, then we just continue to strengthen the system that introduced them as a means of oppressions.
The system is stupid. It's both gay and not gay at the same time. It's paradoxical idiocy to try and fit puritanical tools of oppressions into equating something as varied and wide as the spectrum of sexuality. People jerk off to feet ffs, and we still seem to think that "straight" or "gay" are appropriate ways of encompassing an entire person's perspective.
hope you're okay man, the "feeling of being 11" part hit
Poor dysphoric crocodile :,( this song is so sad and cute at the same time
Agreed
Being trans is way less seamless than some people believe it is. This is exactly how it feels to dress up for an event knowing you’re stuck in a difficult place. You either dress as something you aren’t and feel fake, or you dress the way you want and risk getting weird looks and comments that’ll make you second guess yourself. At that point it feels so much easier to just not go outside. I think there’s one thing every trans person wants. The ability to be yourself and feel completely unstoppable doing it. That feeling doesn’t come for free and some people will never understand how hard it is for us to just… be.
But you can do it. Sometimes you have to look a little silly, get a little adventurous, and risk it all for being who you are. Because feeling beautiful and being yourself is the best feeling in the world.
i see you everywhere hi again
My 26 year old son played this for me after I picked him up from work one night. "Mom, I have a song I want you to hear..."
"Now I look stupid. Is this how every human feels?" gets me every time. Love this song muchly
AWW adorable
He might not be a "he", this might've been an attempt to tell you something
👀
hows your daughter doing two years later...?
The first time I listened to this I cried like a baby. Such a beautiful song.
You're 200 like after 4 years!!!!!!!
Yaaaaaaaayy!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉
Laura Les is bringing out 2004 Newgrounds vibes in all of us
Really just wrote a 2 page essay on this song about gender dysphoria
sweatpants bad bitch energy
pls i wanna read it
pandagirlwithglasses docs.google.com/document/d/1Vx0ortw0ODo3sOXSaLCGZQOgyrZHM0zbnUx8mOT3xJs/edit
sweatpants could i use that in the wikipedia i'm making for her? 🥺
Andrew Animates yes! :)
"im not trans 😏" i say, proceeding to cry for an hour every single time i listen to this
Firstly (same about a year ago. I was/am in fact trans.)
Second -- so how's life?
@@GirlPlus oh shit, completely forgot i made this comment :0 ive been doing alright! definitely better than when i posted this, i finally got my ged back in april after putting so much school work off during covid 🤘 i'm still trying to figure out my gender though, its a confusing process but i'll get there!
@@rockothewallaby1 Eyy, good shit. I'm glad to hear you are doing better in life -- and as for the gender thing, ain't no rush. Its all a process and we all move at our own pace in this funky life.
Keep up the good work and keep doing you, friend!
@@GirlPlus @Holly "Girl+" Oaks thank you! and i hope stuff is going well for you too ✌️^^
@@rockothewallaby1 thanks! it do be going p good right now!
32 and 10 days on hormones and just "got" 100 gecs like 2 nights ago and now im deep diving and god what a treasure laura les is. to all the transfolk out there, keep killing it, we're all gonna make it xo
im crying pls someone give a hug yo laura she is beautiful
Oye
@@allertse_allertse oa
its weird to hear laura without autotune. I like it.
this is autotuned lol
@@ivy6430 not till the chorus
@@ivy6430 its either pitch or formant shifted but doesn't have the autotune with a fast attack ("T Pain Style) in this song like other gec's songs
If you wanna hear lauras voice without autotune or pitch shifting look up "miss you" by 100 gecs. It's just her natural voice
@@FingerSpazm and her voice sound beautiful
yo real talk i think ima get that lil aligator with vans on a skateboard tattooed
do it. its actually a good tattoo lmao
Go get it😊
I dont have gender dysphoria but the story telling in this song is so good shes a really good writer.
Update I did have gender dysphoria however I think I'm okay with being male and i think I'm figuring out alot about myself so im way more comfortable with who I am now.
Yoo same
yeah i love it, i like to connect it to my struggles fitting into a neurotypical world, cause i have the fear that im "never gonna pass" and "they're gonna tell".
@@grilledpook Same!
@@grilledpook hELP this is relatable
Tale as old as time
laura honey you're an icon
When you try so hard to pass everyday just to be called a sir when cashiearing.
I feel like this can be interpreted in different ways depending on whether you’re MtF or FtM
My favourite part of this animation is the eyes all around looking at the gator in the line "If I paint on some lips will they come off with a kiss and tell!? And Tell!??" The image with that part just really captures that feeling of being in public and feeling everyones eyes on you either out of curiosity, malice, or confusion, and you just wish you were invisible. I feel so bad for the alligator standing there so uncomfortable😭
IS THIS HOW EVERY HUMAN FEELS
I’m a 50 year old straight male and I still tear up every time I hear this song.
aww
If it weren’t for Laura I wouldn’t of realized I’m trans. Love you Laura 💖💙🤍
this really hits... the idea that if you don't pass or fit into gender norms/societal ideas of gender binary then you're "not human"... ouch... i feel like all trans ppl have felt that at some point. (also as a trans autistic person the idea of "how to dress as human" is doubly impactful like... i feel like i'm just in a costume/playing a role within society at ALL times.. "now i look stupid/is this how every human feels?... i should stay home/why did i make plans?")
Trans autistic person here you’re so right I could cry
I’m so stuck there’s no way I will ever feel like I can fully pull off one or the other
damn I feel that sometimes
Danm elyotto and I really liked your song let go
i'm a straight dude but this song is cool and it helps me relate to a world i dont know anything about, really cool artist
Three years later and this song still hits home for me, so, so hard. Thank u laura, and to the other transgirls in the comments, u look pretty today
this made me tear up
here after youtube marked the other video for kids :p
thanks for the video now i can save this in my playlist lmao
-it's so cute!!! I want the alligator to be happy and they're not happy!
-yeah
. maybe there will be a sequel when the alligator is happy
-i think there will be
; the alligator deserves it
This has no business making me cry as a straight white cis-man, but man the rawness of this is just phenomenal songwriting.
egg
You can cry bro it’s ok ❤️
The instrumental plus the chord progression is actually haunting. Not in a scary way, haunting in the sense of being able to give you that raw feeling of emotion. Reminds me of how the song “Remember you” from adventure time just knows how to get under your skin and make you start bursting into tears.
Great song, genuinely one of my favorites from her works
nice animation
thank you!
@@christhenbarnes its the best song i heard and the animation is great
I would literally punch someone's teeth out for not seeing the beauty, the pain, the pure talent that is Laura's writing. I love her and her work so much🌈💔
The "Now I look stupid" gets to me every single time, it's just exactly how my inner voice sounds like when the internalized transphobia kicks in... Dysphoria is a bitch. But hey, I have cool Vans as well !
This song is currently the only thing holding me together. Thank you Laura Les for blessing my ears while I have dysphoric breakdowns at three AM.
this song has definitely been one of many peoples egg cracking moments (mine included)
thank you for sharing this with us, laura ♡
Soooo now my dysphoria (if that's what it is) has a theme song AND an artstyle. Wonderful. Awesome. This is fine.
this song doesn’t relate to me at all but still makes me cry
Same

i liked this comment a year ago, now a year later im realising that i do in fact relate to the song :')
I still love this song. Really shows us what Laura went through.
It crazy how hard "im never gonna pass" hits
Aggh i'm so happy that tik tok didn't ruin this little cute song yet
just wait, they're gonna do it
@@oddkharakter so I searched videos with this song in tik tok and really was kinda sad that I just found nothing, but anyways... i think trey're gonna take it one day. Maybe that's good cos I think Laura deserves to be more popular:')
(sorry for bad eng i'm an edgy 14 yeras old ukrainian kiddo)
@@suprslaughtr4223 oh ok!
Me 2 :+(
most of the people who use 100 gecs songs on tik tok r lgbtq, so there probably not going to do anything bad with a song about being trans, and there is one side of tik tok where its 100 gecs so there not gonna ruin a laura les song
What an awesome animation to go with. It very honestly could not be more perfect.
your animation perfectly fits the song so well, i love it
I'm just happy that the transphobes haven't found this song yet judging by the like/dislike ratio
didnt even know it was about being trans
@@micenichael what did you think the "never gonna pass" line was about then? just curious
apathydotmp4 idk lol i dont try to find the meaning behind songs
nah they're too busy listening to dad rock
they're too oblivious to realize it's about being trans lol
I'm cis and getting second hand dysphoria here, Laura really pours her soul into this music and it shows!
This video is so underrated. I know everyone on the internet says this to creators but you really deserve more attention. I really appreciate this animation.
I feel this, I just came out as trans. I always felt disgusted in myself because I'm lesbian too and I just had so much trouble accepting myself since I had this self transphobic mentality that I couldn't be a girl or these feelings were just gross since it would bring me closer to girls or something. But now that I look back things and dating is harder but at least I love who I am.
proud of you❣
Well done, you're valid and I'm proud of you
Hey as a cis lesbian welcome to the "hghhhhhh women 💘" club
hi sum person hope you're doing great today!!! I'm so happy you're allowing yourself to experiment with your identity now, thank you for posting your thoughts and being so open. I'm not sure if you still identify as a lesbian after this time but still, welcome to the women who love women club!!! It's a pleasure to have you
just came out, I'm bi but similar feelings, hope you're doing well :)
PROTECC LAURA LES AT ALL COST
Laura is such a good songwriter and singer, 100gec deserve to pop hard
I just found out she was trans. What a great roll model and what a great song for such a niche group of people. So lovely.
yeah i never realized til i was just watching a 1000 Geks video and was like wait a second
Me listening to this song, having no idea what it's about: "lol funy alligator"
And then I remembered Laura's trans and I went "OHHHHHHH"
@@mulch6687 That's a mood lol
Yoo I’m crying rn
Holy mother of god that was too real and now I'm crying :(
as a cis girl i find myself coming back to this song super often and honestly i end up crying to it everytime. "if i paint on some lips, will they come off with a kiss and tell?" i'm already so self-conscious about myself, my body, etc. i can't imagine how bad it must be when ur trans
🫂
if i didnt understand the " pass " lyric , i wouldve lived on thinking laura was cis
im so proud of her , she really does pass
This is from 2017 so maybe she didn’t “pass” back then (she dosent need to pass to be valid)
@@nonbinarybastard i meant she passes as completely cis rn
her voice is so feminine now
@@SnansKittyspecially on the 10000 gecs album :) I’m so proud of her she’s come such a long way
Dysphoria hours
love how the little gator flies past the screen on the board when she says better go with vans
I’m trans and made this comment a year ago in the closet. I came out last July and my life has never been so amazing :)
I love myself nowadays. Thank you Laura.
15 year old me: I'm not trans
Also me: *listening this song religiously through 2019*
it’s my breakdown so MY playlist.
dysphoria playlist material
i wish gecs explored this style of songwriting a little more rather than
"arms look like cigarettes, i could smoke you, etc"
this is powerful stuff
agreed
@@slunkzilla they're early on in their career, i could see them taking on stuff like this in the future. Also, there are a couple tracks like Ringtone that deal with serious topics
Ben Anon all true. Hope to see more of that.
745 Sticky is very well written in my opinion, and hand crushed by a mallet. I think its just the vocal tuning and heavy instrumental that makes them seem less cohesive
just wait for a new project im sure they will have some stuff like this again they are very versatile
Absolute bop- nothing but infinite love for my transfemme sisters
This song is so sad and such a bop istg
i do be listening to this over and over and over and over
Ah yes a new song to add to my "listen to 100 times until it becomes obnoxious" playlist.
I love Lara so much, she’s too precious for the world protect her at all cost.
This is awesome, I’m glad they made Money Machine because now I know about this... Money Machine is amazing too.
Yeah I already was so down for 100 gecs and that music being popular and now I find out Laura is trans. Such a huge inspiration and so happy this song exists.
Laura is my hero she gave me the courage to come out and medically transition x3😊
Oooh, now the "if I paint on some lips, will it come off with a kiss? and tell?" line makes sense. Now this song is much sadder.
What did you learn that makes that somehow make more sense and sadder that you didn’t know before?
@@SweetMargonade I didnt know this is about wanting to "pass" because of trans insecurities. I thought this is about someone thinking they dont look conventionally good just like how Laura is not the standard of beauty we have today (hourglass shape, super skinny, flowy and flirty fashion sense, etc.). I find it sad because this song seems like it's about a trans person having doubts if they "passed" enough because they are not following what it is to be "girly" and a "woman". I dont know if i explained myself well in this.
Personally, I find Laura with her grungy aesthetics really refreshing and endearing. I really think she looks cool.
@@danielconnor8516 That's awesome you feel that way :) All of it is about still feeling like a guy and hating that you don't look like a girl in the clothes you like. I definitely felt stupid at first when I first got womens clothes, I'm shaving my legs now every day so I don't have the hair and the kiss and tell thing makes me think someone tells they kissed and that shes confided shes trans and she takes the lipstick off herself and stops wearing it because of that.
I feel this song in my own ftm way
I listened to this after putting on a dress even though I'm AFAB, I'm non binary and it hurt. Thankyou for this bop Laura ❤️
Laura is a lovely Saint and I'll never get to thank her for this song
Laura's honesty helps bring out my own honesty
These vocal are perfect
to all my trans girls out there: you look gorgeous today! and every day
literally false ill never pass
@@awesome-yo3yx well i don’t think you need to pass to consider yourself beautiful
@@universe514 holy shit
@@awesome-yo3yx just accept yourself as a man and move on with your life. u literally got groomed into a death cult
@@idk-jb7lx Ah yes because Christanity and Islam have NEVER caused mass death, no that's the trans according to you
dysphoria-core 2k17
Ah gee I really didn't expect to cry to this
I would die of happiness if I could meet Laura Les
Cis autistic woman but damn I am bopping and borderline crying. Why do social constructs gotta be like that
I need this on my Spotify playlist❤️
my serotonin levels are thru the roof
Bit late for Pride Month, but much love and respect to the LGBTQ+ 🏳️🌈 You’re all beautiful humans that deserve the same rights as anyone on this planet. Shine on and spread the love👍💖- A Proud Ally to a Great Cause
you're so sweet!! thank you for being an ally 💕
thanks it really helps
best underrated Laura Les track
i love how emotion is portrayed by the emotionless dinosaur
edit: crocodile
Listening to this while drawing, it helps me feel a lot better.
I know when a trans person says someone made them uncomfortable, media likes to make it seem like we're overreacting. But the other night a patron at work made sexual and bigoted/discriminatory remarks towards me and inadvertently to my fiance as well (both her and I are trans) Loudy, to where people actually looked. And all those folks in there, always come in. He made me seem like a joke, when just moments ago I let him vent to me and helped him from fainting. All my job entails is working a register
The county I am is genuinely dangerous, but I don't have the money to leave. My dysphoria is so bad right now I cant even stand to be gendered by my fiance at all let alone look at myself in a mirror. It never was this bad until that moment.
But, like I said, this song is helping. Not a lot, but enough
I'm still afraid to leave the house, but I at least can look at myself and not feel like I should die.
All I want is to grow gray and lose most of my hair, preferably with my wife. And I think I've gotten pretty far already
If you're trans, old or young reading this, I hope that you also can grow old and gray with whoever you love, romantically or platonically. You deserve the fullest life
nothing like crying to laura les @ 12:21am
i love laura so much
"im never gonna pass. I should've stayed home." sounds like me on my way to take an exam
God this song hits so deep. I feel this everyday pretty much
the fact that this has existed for over a year and i just found out about it
it's originally originally from 2017. Glad I've found it now, but man it'd have been nice to have it back then.
i'm transmasc but this song makes me violently sob.
found the comment I was hoping for. Same same, listening to this song validates the struggle. Lots of ugly crying in my car while I cope
Omfg, this is me. I wear those exact shoes. I wasn’t ready for this :(
yeah it's weird cause vans was all i wore for like a decade. they're nice cause they're completely unisex, but now i'm wearing cute boots that I like a lot more ^-^
I think im trans
ayy same
