I will NEVER understand people who hurt/hate people who are just being who they are when it doesn't affect them in the slightest.
+blunt no, but he hurt other people. who exactly are trans people hurting?
Caitlyn Jenner hurt someone in a car crash.
blunt Caitlyn Jenner is not every trans person ever.
He was a woman at the time lmaoo. Trans people aren't angels lol. They can hurt people.
Exactly! Trans people can hurt people, just like non trans people... they shouldn't be treated any different. I think kimmidoll123 was just trying to say that hurting people just because they are trans is ignorant. The fact that they are trans shouldn't be a reason to hurt them.
As a trans person, these videos help me SO SO much. Especially in really bad days in my transition.
Its so nice to be able to hear older trans people who have been on the other side talk about loving themselves now and know, I can one day be there too.
Thank you buzzfeed, and to the lovely trans people in these videos.
And to all the people in the comments being supportive, and positive: truly, THANK YOU. It helps you go from thinking the world hates you and is out to harm you to have a blossom, if small, of hope in your chest as you slowly get to watch the world change. That's such a difference.
+Lizzie Smith Thank you so much! I am just about to start hormone treatment in about 2 weeks :)
Your support means the world. 😌
+Lance Morgue i am still trying to get my mom to start me on the treatments, but she is not very happy about that.... she keeps getting upset at me everytime i ask her. do you have any advice? how much does it cost to start hormone treatment?

It's different for everywhere in the world unfortunately. Call your health insurance, if you have some, and see if they cover it where you are. Some do, some don't. From what I've heard, vials of testosterone aren't too expensive, but idk if you are starting T or E! Best of luck to you.
I agree
As a trans person, my biggest insecurity is probably... just generally my ability to "pass". Specifically about my voice, and my gender expression. I make no attempt to deepen my voice. I'm not comfortable doing that, nor am I comfortable wearing the most 'masculine' clothing. I would much rather wear clothes I find attractive, and sometimes that means I shop in the "girls" section. (Not all the time, considering I'm also a fan of jeans with pockets ahaha) I also dye my hair, which most consider a feminine thing to do. So to most, I look like a girl with short hair. But I have no problem correcting people when they misgender me. I may be feminine, but that doesn't always mean female.
+Ainhoa L i hope u get accepted more as time goes on and u won't have to be as insecure about ur insecurities :)
Just be and do what ever you want and feel like doing. If it's your choice then it's the best! everyone has insecurities no matter the gender. Best of luck to you!
PoeticPotato I hate that there's there's this need to 'pass', there should be an expectation to look 'trans enough' you are what you are and people cannot tell you what you're not.
I respect you sooooo much. I respect everyone to a degree, but you're the kind of trans individuals that I respect. You're not feeding into the gender roles. You're being you! You don't mind wearing what you want instead of" passing" cause I feel like you know who you are and comfortable in your own skin and know who you are.
I'm gender neutral and it feeds my spirit when I encounter (virtually and too) individuals who don't try to fit into a box just cause society says so! You're you, and YOU know who you are.
Please continue in changing for the better. Don't ever feel pressured to change just to fit. Keep on being you, and living an honest, kind, good life.

I'm trans and my biggest insecurity is that I'm not masculine enough to trans or i'm not sporty enough to be a guy.
Edit-since this post I've come out to my parents (not supportive) and now my biggest insecurity is that I'll never be accepted
I'm the same (yo phandom)
I haven't started yet but I'm really looking forward to going full time and just feeling good in a public setting or at work. BTW your profile pick is great. your totally a dude. have a great day!
+Oliver Is Trash It's hard to get over the appearance of masculinity, but just so you know, I know just as many guys who are not sporty than those who are. Don't worry about it.
+AverageMemes You seem angry? ..... Need a hug from a trans woman? Poor baby. ....
AverageMemes WOW UR SO BRAVE OMGGGG IMAGINE YOU TELLING SOMEONE WHO DOESN'T HAVE SUPPORT TO KILL THEMSELVES SOOOO WONDERFUL
why is a random video on internet more supportive than my whole family :(
i feel really sorry for you :/ but i am sure that youll find other people who will support you and maybe your family just need a bit of time. stay in there, im sure it will get better! youre a great person and never let people tell you something different :D
If they don't want to support you for being who you are, then they are not your family.
Now if your doing something like drugs, then you should expect it. Not saying you do that sort of thing.
I'm so sorry that your family isn't accepting. Hopefully time will heal them, and they'll become mire accepting and realize this is who you are. ❤️
I'm straight but love everybody. Why is that so wrong to just love people that are different?
i dont understand that either... everybody wants just to be accepted and be allowed to love or to be what makes them happy... they will not hurt anybody
+Rafaela Scheiwiller People just don't want to change, they are so set in their ways if not accepting people for who they are that the don't want to think of someone born a different gender. Even though I am cis gendered and biologically in every way female, I have a very deep voice and a hormonal problem where I look almost male so I get misgendered a lot or people think I'm Trans and can act aggressive towards me. Even if it's a mistake at the airport or an actual insult it is very hurtful. People just don't see what another sees and can intentionally or unite nationally be hurtful.
+Jen Schwartz (WarriorPuppy) *unintentionally
Jen Schwartz i am really sorry to hear that :/
i am not trans and i really do look like a female, however, i am half a man on the inside due to gernder roles (i do stuff that is seen as boystuff, have more male friends and so on). people also called me lesbian (not that being lesbian is bad) just because i dont act typically female... i just dont understand why people associate certain behaviors or looks with masculine or female... the same goes with trans people, people just have too many prejudices about them
Jen Schwartz but i do wish you the best and you are great even if you dont have what society sees as "female looks". i feel bad, because people are rude to you just for being different. but i do believe that in maybe 200 years society will have changed (if we didnt destroy the planet so far). but for now, just dont let people let you feel bad about yourself just because your special. youre great! :D
i´m totally crushing on the guy in the Grey hoodie

It's so frustrating that most of those insecurities, almost all of them actually, are made by society and other people...
The bathroom I can understand because they're a PUBLIC bathroom and they're disgusting.
Public bathrooms not trans people.
It's so fustrating that I can't eat a sandwich without spilling jelly on my shirt
Pink Guy ey b0ss
Pink Guy stay strong
hatlesspuma swagmaster society does both good and bad, and I'm in a position where I do accept that, but still I hate seeing people actually suffer because of us and our communities. I think that saying "it's not society" when this time most of it clearly is society, just means we have an excuse to not try and do better for those people who could have been your family or closest friends. I think that we should take the responsibility, even if we're not really comfortable with that, because those people deserve better. I'm not just saying this because I want to complain or blame other people, but I actually think that through education and awareness we CAN make this world better for trans or even the entire LGBT community. I also think change is already starting to happen- and that's just awesome!

I came out as transgender, and since then no one has been supportive. I get negative comments often, and my parents are disgusted in me.
My insecurity is the fact that I might never be accepted
This is why I hate our world. Parents should accept who you are. People should accept people that are different from the "norm". It's sad that this is our reality of the world and that it's so difficult to change it. If you have a kind heart, whoever you are, I accept you.
i also recently came out as a trans male a few months ago to my mom and she was not very happy about it. i know what it is like to not get accepted and made fun of. lots of kids in my class make fun of me, and try to imitate my deep voice and my high muscle mass. i know exactly what you are going through. 😐😃
I'm so sorry. Please find people who WILL love and support you. Actively look for friends who will help.
You guys all need psychiatric help.
Negative people are unfortunately a fact of life... the best way to counter these people is to be around friends who accept you for who you are. They're out there - we're out here. Stay strong
I swear people of the lgbt be the most accepting people but they don't really get that acceptance from most people and that's why whenever I see a gay or lesbian couple or a transgender I smile at them and tell them how beautiful they are
That's really nice of you. I'm gonna start doing it too:)
thank you so much
at least i see someone who is excepting and supportive in the comments. i feel alot better now about who i am.
:) we need more people like you in the world!
this is a great thing to do, but I'm trans and a few of my friends are too,, and some of us want to be treated just the same as cisgender people, but you are a great person for doing this love u
My last name is tran, and I'm not trans
Lol
this is the single greatest comment I have seen so far!
Thank you, thank you very much
hahaha ommg .
Omg . . . You are like me totally the funniest person ever. I've never seen a comments as clever as that. (I'm being sarcastic, in case you're so stupid that you can't tell the difference)
These people deserve SO MUCH respect and it's so sad how many people won't give it to them
Why? What have they done to earn respect?
It makes me so happy to see buzzfeed post so many trans videos
i feel like dying.
Same I'm binge watching all of them they are so moving and they help me a lot
Rachael Kelson
i feel like drinking bleach when see vids like this.
+MLGshrekt20000! Congrats to you. Go ahead we need less people like you in the world
Rachael Kelson
no we need less things like trans people and you.
as an FTM trans person who oftem finds himself looking over his shoulder out of pure insecurity, i needed this. thank you buzzfeed. also, those trans women were both inspirational and beautiful. the trans man said some helpful things as well.
They shouldn't be insecure
Ur just normal
Transphobic people are not normal
They're jerks
Just turn your back to them
Hard to turn your back on most of the planet
Without getting stabbed
Tried not to cry, failed
Don't cry,craft

Julia Fernandes u guys will not be remembered. lucky our government isn't run on religion or your .005 population would be slaughtered.
I'm shocked that people have nerve to walk up to others and beat them up because they are in a certain way. How does it affect your life if a stranger is transexual? It's just a person who wants to feel like they belong in their own skin, how can you disfavor someone that?
This is an absolutely beautiful video.
you are amazing. im so glad that trans and LGBT people exsist. the world is so much better with you
How is the world better with them?
+Anita_ Drozzd there are more people in the world who truly know who they are and are happy with who they are. That makes the world a better place for everyone.
Yes, but in the comment she said she's glad they 'exsist'(like no one would have the the to be lgbt), so if they didn't exsist I wonder if the world would be better or worse
+Ainhoa L straight humans were crucial because it had to be that way in order to reproduce, but that's not very important now as soon we'll have to find more places to live as the birth rate increases
I'm just wondering how the world is necessarily 'better' with lgbt ppl
I was taught this thing, that when you're uncomfortable, you're doing something amazing. Therefore, all those trans people who are incredibly uncomfortable, should take those feelings and thoughts, and change them into feelings and thoughts of "I'm uncomfortable because I'm doing something amazing. I'm uncomfortable because I'm doing something ground-breaking. I'm uncomfortable because I'm changing my world into something that I love, and something that I am. I'm doing something drastic. I'm doing something for me. By being uncomfortable, I'm doing the amazing thing of changing at least one or two people's point of view on trans people from 'Abomination' to 'Amazing'. I'm allowing at least one or two people understand me and those who are similar to me. Therefore, I have removed 1 or 2 trans haters from this world. Because I'm uncomfortable, I'm in the process of changing the world." To all those who are transitioning, or have already transition completely, and you're uncomfortable; know that you're changing the world, and you are amazing. I wish you a beautiful life.
What frustrates me is that, when a mother is pregnant, she's all like 'i don't care if it's a boy or a girl', yet when the child turns out to be trans in any way, i.e: nobinary, they're just like 'no you were born a boy'
like ???
the guy in the gray sweater is hot 🙌🙌🙌
I got beat up 3x/day from age 6 to 14. Male puberty made me suicidal. I turned to drugs, theater, music, and isolation to survive, but almost didn't make it to my 25th birthday. I got married but my wife realized I was a girl inside and didn't like being a lesbian. After 2 kids and 7 years of platonic marriage, she decided to marry her boyfriend.
I started to transition and had to abort when she threatened to have my visitation revoked, because I wouldn't let her new husband beat up the kids. She told the Conservative Christian social worker about my being transgender and she wrote the letter without talking to me or my kids.
Aborting almost killed me. I gained 150 lbs, and after 2 heart attacks and a stroke, I realized that I HAD to transition.
The funny thing is that NOBODY was that surprised when I transitioned. I'd never been terribly masculine and after transition I seemed "right" to them. I wished I could have transitioned MUCH younger, like before puberty. My mom had learned that the treatment back in the 1960s for people like me was shock, torture, brain-washing, and if that failed, lobotomy so I wouldn't kill myself.
Life after transition was so much better. I didn't have to dress sexy, I just had to blend with the other women my age, size, and situation. The result was that I became almost invisible, not because I was trying, but rather because the natural woman was just able to be herself.
I feel like these insecurities apply to everyone. It is the exact reason why we all must come together and realize we are all so much more alike than we are unalike. We must understand how we all struggle with hardships and sadness as human beings and we must support and encourage each individual we meet. I loved this video!!
wouldn't have been able to tell they are Trans o.O don't know how anyone else can tell. yall keep being yall. you beutiful blueberries
Their voice can show. If you close your eyes and just listen to their voice can be a big give.
Shazare I can tell - It's quite obvious.
This really hits me in the feels, because I really don't think of their insecurities when I see them. I don't see the masculine features. You remind me of my old French teacher. Love the lips. Not manly/womanly enough? You're perfect. You exude strength and power. You are actually the people I think of when trans topics come up. Much love.
This video was so inspiring, for both trans people and just people who have insecurities💕
3:08 when she said it's okay to be insecure, it's okay to be uncomfortable that hit me really hard because that was just the thing i needed to hear for years! I'm trans and iv'e never been comfortable with myself ,i never loved myself but idk what was about this video but it moved me, it inspired me to keep going, get through all the obstacles and bumps that come in your life, I love this video!
+Steven Densmore *she
All this people can pass! You go, SLAY!
the comment about befriending your insecurities and getting to know your fears as if they were roommates is absolutely one of the most inspiring things I've ever heard. beautifully put, poignant, and so very true. definitely making a mental note of that one.
dear trans, gay, bisexual, intersexual and every person who isnt like "the norm": you are a great person! i know the path is difficult; society judges people who are different way too fast. hang in there and try to surround yourself with people who accept you the way you are, it will truly help you. society is slowly starting to change, but prejudices are hard to overcome. sometimes it will be really hard to follow your path, because of all the hatred and judging looks. but never forget, that the reason why you are doing this, is to be your true self and your true self is the most beautiful self of you that does exist of you. one day, society will have changed. until then, never give up :D
I want to hug all of them. Thank you, Buzz Feed for showing this! 😊👏🏾
*puts in headphones*
*turns volume right down*
*sits in corner and cries*
They are all beautiful no matter what ❤️❤️❤️
I just wish people get to be educated about trans more.This video really made me tear up and is literally everything that I have been feeling. So thankful to buzzfeed for educating people out there and posting videos like this.
Yeah. If more cis people started listening to trans people instead of talking, maybe there would be less hate.
personally I think all of them look great! I can't belive people still don't understand what they stand for and that it's wrong to discriminate and they are human and they have feelings! I respect you guys brave enough to show your true self.
:)
We need more people like you, you lovely human being
I love how all of this advice can be useful for not only people in transition but others who also need to hear it! So many wise words from strong and beautiful humans!!
I send you all much love and unconditional support
It makes me so sad that there are people that are willing to hurt and hate on others that are doing absolutely no harm. Love is love, regardless of anything. I cannot imagine how hard it is to transition. All those people are so incredibly beautiful and strong.
My biggest insecurity being trans is it actually being a phase, so many people have told me it is it half makes me believe them
I wish I was able to personally thank everyone who had a hand in making this video. Especially the lovely men and women being interviewed. Thank you for sharing this!
Tired of these videos.. And for anyone who's about to say, "Then why did you click the video?", because I fucking can.
Tired of what kind of videos? Good ones?
Sounds like you are wasting your time here then.
So you can imagine how tired we are of close minded people like you making our friends and family members uncomfortable.
Hannah Harrison And I'm tired of solipsists. THe world is about more than just you.
+Sophia Dalke yeah... how many lbgt community support videos have they made.... it was good at first, but now it's just over used for views
A wise person once told me, "There's no use filling a cup with love if it's already full of hate...but empathy replaces hate and pushes love to the surface"...so here's to love being strong enough to push through
This video made me tear up. This trans series has been educational & insightful & just beautiful. The instance of feeling connected to what these people are feeling is very powerful. I can understand a little bit more the struggle.
I'm trans and my biggest insecurity is that I can't have children. How do I deal with it? I know that I can adopt or use IVF. There are so many options out there for me.
i'm trans and my biggest insecurity is that ill never feel or look quite as masculine as I'd like, and that my voice will always give me away.
I'm FTM trans and I absolutely love that BuzzFeed does these videos.
I am so damn proud of all of these guys/guy-ettes right now. The amount of crap you have to deal with on a daily basis is incredible, and I'm not about to turn around and say I understand or relate, because i don't. I don't get why people see you and hate you - all I see is beauty and courage and bravery, and I am so immensely proud of all of you xx
Is my chest flat enough?
Am I masculine enough?
Are they staring at me because they know?
Do I pass?
yup and when you get past all that there is always "good I guess I kinda pass a bit but I better not speak"
Ezria Daniels *💜You❤️are💙valid💜and wonderful❤️and💙beautiful💜 never let no mothafuckas tell ya otherwise.💘*
"Does this shirt make me look flat" is a who dysphoric mood. Like my friends will be like "omg, it looks fine, you cant see it" and I'll be thinking "oh. My. God. It looks like DDDs"
Some people say that others notice trans people to be trans. But if I saw any of them walking down the street, I would absolutely not be able to tell.
Their disguises are really good. No lie, impressive.
They are not disguises.
These men and women are who they identify as, not just some clown playing dress up.
Have some compassion for those that found themselves born in the wrong gender, you were just one of the lucky ones that already was.
Not disguises, their true forms.
Obvious troll is obvious, you've caught two little fishes but not me.
Oh, please.
+TylerDaDragon There true forms we're before all the surgeries and hormone injections
In a world of judgement,hate and insensitivity due to gender ,race,creed and religion,we could learn so much from this video.
"Bathroom situations are very complicated and I choose not to use public bathrooms",this one really got to me and gave me goosebumps. Why would anyone want to hate on someone and all the while see pain in their eye. You are all just as real men and women as the rest of us
how many videos on being transgender do they need to make? I know raising awareness is important but this is getting incredibly repetitive
The videos are all different and IMO, interesting. You don't HAVE to watch them, buzzfeed puts out lots of videos every day, the vast majority of which only have cis people in them.
I think its because some people have very hard time understanding that is okay and to be happy to know others share same experiences. they do it repeatedly to get it out there for people who really really need it
for me, a trans teen seeing these is super helpful and interesting! :) it may shock u, but not everyone is cis!
So brave of them to talk about their insecurities, I don't know if I could open up like they did. It's so awful that people get hate for being trans, why can't people just care about their own life's and let others live like they want. Good luck to everyone in this video and other trans people with insecurities, I hope that the world will change to the better and that I will be easier for people to except you like you deserve to be excepted. But I also hope that you can feel good about yourself and fell less insecure even though it's jerks in this world❤️
this video made me realize how much i take for granted being cisgender
dazzlingsparks18 of course!!
***** this was really great to read, thank you
you made gay marriage legal all over the united states, without straight allies like you we wouldn't have made it that far (:
i really love when buzzfeed makes these trans vids cause its more like a check to know that people get through the same stuff that i do.
Buzzfeed should make a video on trying to incorporate all of the different sexualities and genders and spectrums because as much as I love how they are getting the LGBTQIA community's word out there, I feel as though they are forgetting some of the other aspects. Especially about non-binary, demi people and asexual/ aromantics.
Jen Richards is soooo beautiful!! I love her softness.. her voice gives me chills.
regardless of what people's person opinion is about Transgender people, no one has the right physically or verbally abuse them.
now if they are dating and choose not to let a person know that they are trans, then... idk... it's like u are putting yourself in harms way. but I think most Transgender individuals are honest. I hope so
the black woman with the red hair accessoire has SUCH a soozing voice. so calm! :)
I love videos like these
This video made me cry ;(. Suddenly I realize my life worries are insignificant. Good video Buzzfeed!
today i just moved into a new house. a neighbour came over and started talking to my mom. the neighbour asked "is that your son?" pointing to me.. my mom said "daughter" when she knows im trans. i cant stop thinking about it.
I'm crushing on the guy with the black shirt, grey cap. wanna meet him so badly

+Steven Densmore stfu
the woman with red/blonde hair is so fuckin gorgeous
the woman in the head wrap's eyelashes are AMAZING!!
This deeply moved me, I started crying halfway through
Rocco though... 😍😍
Caitlyn Smith #mancrushforlife
this actually really hurt my heart. no one should have to be afraid to be who they are
I felt like I could see a whole other world of love and understanding in their eyes. These BuzzFeed videos interviewing trans people are some of my absolute favorites that they've ever made. How beautiful ❤️
that dude with the tattoos is hot he is amazing
this video made me cry so hard. as someone who is trans, thank you for making this series buzzfeed
As a trans male, this video made me cry. What a beautiful video. Thank you, Buzzfeed. Thank you for informing everyone. I'm so happy this was made..
+Bri Baugher Stay strong no matter what others may say about you!Someone out there loves you!
+Amelia Mann-Parkhurst Thank you so much for your comment! It honestly made me feel a lot better! ^-^
+Bri Baugher Of course,I myself am Pansexual,though it's quite different I still get hated for it.
I am not trans, so I can never truly say, "I get it," but I do want to thank you all for what you do. The world needs more people who can confidently be true to themselves, and seeing all of you giving amazing advice - which can apply to nearly anyone dealing with insecurities - puts the biggest smile on my face. I will always rally for the cause of happiness. Congratulations to all of you for being real, great people, and thank you all again.
These types of stories really make me feel quite pleased that humans still do have the ability to progress into a better and friendlier kind of society
The red haired woman has such a soothing voice
imagine being born just to not accept your parts, then you change and expect people to accept you when you couldn't accept yourself LMAO
Honestly, the way I have always seen it is that if you're insecure. You're weak. Confidence in yourself is what makes a person strong to me.
I came out as trans to my mother yesterday, and she was so supportive of me and my identity. I'm horrible at dealing with serious situations, so I asked if she wanted to watch Doctor Who with me 😂
i hope you all find happiness.. and stop being affected of what other people may tell you. im already proud of you as you entered the transs world and decided to get rid of your ex-identity.. its one of the boldest moves a person could ever do in her life. and you should know that for doing that strong and audacious move.. you are 100% braver than any of your haters.
as a man who turned f and back to m I relate. by the time you read this I will be f again.
We are in a new day and age where labels truly are overrated and is just a way to box people in. Please remember to love yourself and know that there are people in the world who love you too
i wish this could of helped me i really do im 15 mtf trans person i came out to my mom a year ago in hopes of transitioning nothing happened i came out to everyone at the beginning of summer in the hopes of starting a gofundme nothing happend so right now im traped schools starts soon and i cant do nothing anyone got any advise
Good luck!
Do what makes you happy and go by the name and gender pronouns you want to!! x
Keep talking about it with your family. If you keep reminding them about it they shouldn't forget, but it might take some time before it really sticks. Stop listen when they say the wrong pronouns/name and just ignore them until they remember themselves. I really hope you can fix the transition soon!
If you've come out at such a young age, you are pretty strong. That's awesome. Unfortunately there are a lot of battles to be fought. You need to stick to your guns about asking people to address you by the correct pronoun. Some people will not and that will happen until the transphobia isn't as great of an issue. That's why it's very important to continue to persevere. Your family should come around eventually. It's important to maintain open dialogue with them (and others) especially when an opportunity presents itself for you to educate and reinforce knowledge over bigotry. There are some hateful people out there, but many of the ignorant are only ignorant because they lack the knowledge, the truth. The more these conversations happen, the more progress we will make in fighting the hate and transphobia. As far as physical transition goes, just hang in there. Better when you are 18 and can get out on your own and understand yourself bit more. Live as your intended self for timebeing
this makes me feel more confident, and comfortable about myself, I'm becoming to accept myself and that no matter what there's always gonna be someone who's going to judge you, but there's also people who love you and who will except you for who you are, thank you buzzfeed I'm thinking of coming out soon! :-))
How does a girl turn into a guy and grow facial hair? Like I can't even grow facial hair looool. But overall much respect to everyone in the vid
Warrior1396 Hormones can change hair growth, voice pitch, fat distribution and etc.
Hormonal replacement therapy(HRT). Google it, it's pretty cool.

This video almost brought me to tears. It's insane to think of how ignorant some people are. Somebody being trans doesn't affect you, so why do you care
Be you
I love your profile picture
I love this so much. Respect, Love and acceptance. The right to express our selves, no matter who we are or what we look like. This was important. Buzzfeed
Can we stop with all the LGBT stuff, we are all equal we all have insecurities. This is just getting annoying.
+Chera Hodges exaclly, the first step of equality is to treat everyone the same, not by there skin gender or sexualty. when we treat gay people and other minorities as there own entity they are not being treated the same.
RavensSarora that was an awful lot of typing just to get deleted
+joshua jones Yes!
can we stop with all the cis stuff? its really annoying and you just see it everywhere lmao
In the eyes of society, we are not equal. 90% of trans people have reported harassment in their work place, 61.6% of queer students who have reported incidents of bullying have said their staff have done nothing to stop it, 1 in 8 trans women of colour are murdered for being trans, the average life span of a trans women of colour is 30 years old, I've been threatened with death for being transgender and queer. Now then, are we truly "equals"? This is why we need representation, to eliminate the bigotry and help people understand we are no different and deserve respect just like everybody else.
My biggest insecurity is not passing, just like most trans people feel.
I'm tired of being a tomboy or a girl with a male name or whatever. I'm a guy. The. End. Does anything change? No, you're just making me happier and less dysphoric by calling me the name I chose, male pronouns and just treating me like you'd treat any other man.
Anyone that's trans has all my respect, they are the bravest people on this planet!!🌎❤️
Eww
what? you saw yourself in the mirror?
+Ιωαννα Κτ It must be his first time.
***** tell that to buzzfeed mate
sorry but RUclips isn't a mirror
All of those persons are such heroes! I love how they express and show themselves. I think they're very strong and tough. I just don't understand why such angles receive hate and aggression from others.
