A 13 year old has a boyfriend and yet i cant even stay in a relationship more than 2 days and more than a week on the sims 😂😂😂😂
Day made 😂😂
Dude how many 13 year olds are as chill and articulate as this kid. He's amazing.
johnny vaughan Same they get together, one or both cheat, break up, get back together and all other again. :)
this is literally me
johnny vaughan omg ik
Wow this boy is incredible. I was so dumb when I was 13.
Good for you. Sadly it took me quite a bit longer. I figured out I wasn't straight probably around the age of 19 or at least that's when I started admitting it to myself. Having grown up in a small German town, I never came in contact with anyone who was openly gay.
Don't worry. I was 15 when i had my first boyfriend. But at that time we both didn't really know what we're doing. Or what it actually means to be gay. We also both lived in german villages in the middle of nowhere.
Jeyss88 :But you had each other for Company , & that is Cool :)
Me too!
Greyzee Guy I knew I was gay when I was twelve.
Two bros, chilling in an interview, 65 years apart and they are gay!
Issaca Pomerance-Trifts best comment I've read in a while
best comment here i swear
Points for that vine reference 🤣
🏆 for stating the obvious you must get a lot of these participation trophies
@@unbroken1010 what do you mean? I'm confused lol
Me being straight was a phase.
Lol that actually is true even though I am asexual but I can understand u
god made you strait you're just lost and cringy
Bananabro 777 I don't believe in God, he didn't make me straight because guess what IM GAY
@@gracie9782 lol,I do belive in God though He exists but He is not we think He is.He is very different from that.
@@tropicwaves7591 Just like your brain.
I'm a straight girl but would love to just sit down and listen to the older guy talk because he holds lot of history
babygirl Holley j could of talked for him for aggeeessss
babygirl Holley Make sure you invite a wise one, cause not all elders are respectable, some people are just growing more stubborn and hatred as time being, they could do harm more than good to you. Your own thoughts are more matter to be honest.
terry Lim
Hello Terry
You are so right and if you ever come cross a older people that's not begin honest in what they are doing or saying speak up speak out until someone hear you
Yes !
Same
_"The most important thing is, that you can love somebody, it doesn't matter who they are. Whether it's a boy or a girl, love is love. And that's something what is enriching. And try to get people think beyond their own immediate sphere. So that we can all be neighbors in the world, and not enemies."_
- Percy, 78
Such an awesome advice to give to the younger generations. If we succeed in follow his advice even partially, the world will for sure be a little bit better place
Kotifilosofi We need to follow his advice !! x
+:STAG: Well, if you want to read it like that :) But the context was, the elder man giving an advice to a young BOY. So it's natural to him to talk about "girls and boys" rather than "men and women" when talking about his situation.
(Omg I had no idea I got any thumbs up D: )
Love IS love... Love is blind... we cannot see love, love is not an action, it is a feeling. The law has never prevented anyone from loving, it has only persecuted those (men) (because they have penises) who choose to use the back door. Perhaps the law served as a health initiative, given the sensitive nature of the orifice. Any doctor would tell you not to stick anything up there, people don't listen, and that's why you're a Google search away from seeing tonnes of x-ray cells showing the plethora of preferred items; anything from a Barbie doll to a ladle they've tried em all
Kotifilosofi I'm the same age as thr boy and also queer so I think this is really important for our generation to hear, even if we're privileged
+Random READS Yea :) I think that even if there was no stigma of any kind towards LGBT-minorities, it would be important to let these kids know about these issues. Because of when you're a little bit different than most people (for any reason), you're going to need support to cope with normative world :)
For being 13 he’s so polite and intelligent. He’s parents did an amazing job.
i love percy's voice. i could listen to it for hours
Same! It's so comforting.
It's amazing
He got that voice that I could listen to reading an audiobook and I live for it.
I’m From South Africa. That is his South African Accent combined with a British Accent.
When you're from the southern US and being gay might as well still be illegal.
Danny Smith honestly
Danny Smith. Yeah, I know from experience
Danny Smith Yep
do not paint the entire of the southern USA with the same brush...like everywhere there's acceptance and rejection
wren 22 True, but let's be frank here- the south is LESS accepting than other parts of the country. Sure, there are pockets of acceptance, like NOLA (born and raised here, UNFORTUNATELY. I'm leaving this trashy state after college), and Orlando, Florida, but as a whole the southern United States is LESS accepting of LGBT+ people.
if hearing police charging you with a guilty offence because of being gay in 1967 is shocking to you ,it will blow your mind when you know there's still a death penalty for being gay in 3rd world countries like iran in 2017 :)
Amir Asghary WHATTT !!!
Amir Asghary very true! I have a couple of friends who live in countries where it is illegal to be attracted to the same gender. Being Muslim they live in fear of what would happen to them if any family members found out about their sexuality. On top of that fear they would be stoned, killed or put in prison.
I speak to a lot of people from the LGBT community around the world and it's always those that live in these countries that get to me the most. I can listen but I don't have a solution..... very sad! X
Amir Asghary Muslim here, from Pakistan. I agree dude.. :/
Amir Asghary
Saudi Arabia, Iran, Maratuania (butchered spelling sorry), Sudan and Yemen all allow capital punishment for being gay (lesbian in all except iran where lesbians get 50 lashings 3 times then killed)
Amir Asghary same,I wish Muslims will be more open about this topic....
Damn why all these 13 year olds in relationships and I be here in a onesie crying
Lol. Life is not effing fair!
Meeeeee
mood
Same
Me tho
I love how candid the older man is with this 13 yo. Doesn't patronize once. Even his more "risque" stories. Bravo. Open communication. open mind and one day we will get there 🏳️🌈love wins
Yeah seeing an old guy talking to little boy about cottaging was great.
That kid is so socially self-possessed and confident for 13. He will go far.
Jerald Collins Thank you ❤️
You're very welcome. Enjoy your life!
I KNOW EIGHT
He will go far? Where? Just being confident doesnt mean you will go far in life
@@LouiCharlie dude. Please learn. GIRLS ARE HOT BOYS ARE NOT😂
I knew I was gay at 13 but I was definitely NOWHERE near that mature
Tom Cowley it’s alright. I am gay as well and I am definitely not mature. People love me though
Dam I fell bad
Sameeeee. Well, I knew when I was twelve, and came out last year when I was 14.
It’s the effect of getting support from your friends and family. And have a healthy social life.
@@user-fg2xo8nz8e I'm still waiting for the right time, only told my best friend that I know online.
Man: “Have you ever had a boyfriend!”
Boy: “I have...”
Man: “And how long ago was that?”
Boy: “Well...uh - now. I have a boyfriend now.”
Time stamp
This type of dialogue needs to be voiced more often. The endearing way Percy speaks to the young man is hard-won, invaluable wisdom our seniors can offer.
Let us as a community break the barriers of age and make the chorus full and free.
Great job!
I would listen to this old man everyday. He's amazing in the way he speaks and describes everything happening over 5 decades ago so accurately and precisely.
Esam Elwan Vsry true !!
I love his accent though
...I'm bisexual and my family uh...doesn't support me, they aren't against me, but they don't think bisexual should be a sexuality. 😕 this was really interesting to listen to and compare the two times in history. Loved it ❤
Sierrah DiCosimo I'm so sorry you have to be in that situation. Sometimes I feel guilty that I have such a good family with my mom being openly bi and accepting me as pan
Don’t listen, just be yourself. Stay positive, stay happy :)
Sierrah DiCosimo you’re a fuck boy basically
We support you, and I hope your parents will one day understand, just keep being yourself ❤️
@@razanraghad3040 Excuse me? Wanna have a chat about being a decent human being?
OMG Louis, I love him xx
Percy (the elderly man's) husband Roger passed away in 2017 :(. Feel so bad for Percy x
Ella Mclaughlin i love you too ! x
Daaaamn, that's sad but at least they had 51 yrs together.
Ella Mclaughlin how do you know
Ella Mclaughlin well thanks for bumming us all out after such a nice video
Sleep well rodger
I'm not really involved in the LGBTQ community at all, but this video still speaks to me somehow. It's an amazing video, great job. Everyone needs to see this, no matter their sexuality.
Can we make it compulsory to be shown in schools. I mean never gonna happen but we can try
@@bananasplit6048 yes
It's because EVERYONE has a gay gene
Everytime I see old gay people at gay pride parades, I can't help but get teary-eyed thiking about all the years that they fought for our rights. I salute you all. :')
Hi
I'm not crying you're crying. Also I desperately want a BBC film about Roger and Percy's youth, meeting and falling in love, the 27 year old ex-Joburg boy head over heels for the beautifully-spoken English history professor with the sweet smile, and how their forbidden love endured their entire lives. Seriously, can we not crowd-fund this, assuming Roger and Percy are willing to share their story?
Mic Halse Yassss !!
Imagine being able to have this conversation with an elderly gay. Just having a heartfelt conversation. I would feel so grateful to experience this.
I had my first gay experience with my little cousin when I was nine, he was also nine and was deeply in love when I was 12. Now I had been with my lover for 39 years and I tell you that I am glad that things had changed, at least in the western world, because I remember something that I will never forget; when I was 15 a policeman beat a friend of mine and naked down his teeth and we were to afraid to complain. I am 69 years old now and I still remember with such sadness and my friend was so beautiful and it was my fault because I kissed him on the street and some people called the police on us. So be very happy for what you have and always remember that the fight is not over and do for others what we have done for you!!... Many hugs!!...
There is NOTHING wrong with being gay. There is something weird as hell doing shit with your cousin when you're 9 years old. Wtf
@@garrettklein7720 yeah….. wtf
Sweet home ala
I felt especially touched by how rapt Louis was listening so devotedly to Percy. You rarely see that kind of respect for elderly people these days.
Paul Weidig 😇😇
Hola paul gracias hombre
"I think I will have the scotch", that's seriously the best coming out story
Such an unbelievable video. Remember that some people still don’t have this freedom or acceptance yet... To them I say, never be afraid to make your own family. Putting positivity and love into the world, you will always find people that will embrace you and accept you like family. There is nothing wrong with you nor have you done anything wrong. That is the meaning of community. Stay Strong ❤️
im crying, im a lesbian and in love with my gf , we're going to marry in secret because we can't come out and don't have the guts to , living in a arabic muslim country kinda sucks We're not excepted but my love for her will never change, it is not a crime to love somebody, it's a crime locking people up because of it LOVE WINS AND IT ALWAYS WINS 🏳️🌈. 🖤💍.
Angel Blue you and your girlfriend are very brave and I’m proud of you
Good luck. Love wins
Angel Blue you’re Muslim and gay ??!!!!!
I hope you get your rights💕
Which country exactly?
I enjoyed this immensely! imagine how it will be in another 65 years!
Nuala Kilroy i think it's sarcasm
Changing your sex will become akin to changing your phone right now, reproduction isnt harmed at all in this manner.
Ryan Black Yeah humanity probably will be no more.
Kartoschki Geht Sie Nichts An why don't you look up the definition of humanity
Ryan Black It won't do a difference.
Never forget: History sometimes repeats. Especially if you are not aware of that. So be careful.
True
When I was 12 I kept telling myself I’m not gay, I don’t want this voice. But 2 years later I’ve realised love is love. I still haven’t come out to my parents, but my friends are so supportive and it’s amazing to be able to breath again.
I have a crush on my best friend
Good thing she's a lesbian
Edit: I asked her out last night and she said yes!
omg I'm so happy for you
I know I'm late but congrats BTW I have a crush on my bff and I think she's bi
congrats!
oh my god yay im so happy for you!
Congrats
I wish I could come out one day :( sucks being in the UK yet my family won't accept it. Happy that these two people are able to be themselves and are comfortable
Yusuf Awww :(
You hang in there Sweetie! Life will fall into place for you one day. Promise!
Stay strong, I bet all the puzzle pieces will come together one day as long as you will stay you!
Yusuf same here 😕
Yusuf at least it's not illegal in the UK
Things like this make me realize how lucky I am to be a lesbian in a time where the world is more accepting
Miah ❤️❤️
Me too!!!Well just my family not accepting...but yeah
MEEE
It isnt all accepting. Cannot be with the woman i love or whom loves me cause it is so stigmatized by her family.
@@krisj5561 my family is super against it too I cant even come out to them
"there's not a single member of my family who doesn't support me"
Wish I could relate
I’m 13 and gay for a year now I have had 2 boyfriends and am with one right now and I can tell you it’s not a phase
You was gay your whole life. You just discovered you was for 2 years.
Buddy you've been gay your whole life. You probably just came out a year ago or found out. But you haven't been gay for just 2 years☺
I'm so jealous seeing 13 yr old had two boyfriends and I, bisexual 17 year old, have never been with anyone
Oh ok
Sizza FN I’m stuck. I wanna tell my Best friend that I like him but I don’t know if he is gay or Bi, like me but, I don’t wanna destroy my friendship with him.

Erika Patao people don't like change
When they see something different, or out of the ordinary, they become skeptical.
religion
Emberleaf that too
Because to those who aren't it's unfamiliar to them so it makes it not normal to be gay, and to some people the unknown scares them and or makes them angry cause they don't fully understand.
Well done all. An absolutely brilliant watch.
Thank youu !?
Louis Packham -- I'm watching this for the third time in a row. This video gives me hope!!
suvariboy Thank youuu :)
Great interview. Good for you for being involved, open & honest. What a joy to see LGBT Youth who are open and out there, lighting a beacon for those unsure, in hiding, questioning, curious, etc.

Happy to have found this site. My partner and I have been together for 47 years. He is 85 years old and I am 78. For Danny Smith, not everyone in Florida is a homophobe. We live in a suburban neighborhood in Jacksonville and have a great friendship with our neighbors who know we are gay but have accepted us without question or comment. I have been openly gay since my early 20's and never been discriminated against. Not every person's life or story is the same, but the conclusion is as other's have said, "Be yourself" and accept those who love you.
John Roddy Sounds like a lovely relationship!! Congrats :)
Thank you Louis and I predict a wonderful future for you based on your intelligence and the loving support of your parents
I live in the Jacksonville are now and it is true that everyone here is so accepting, I used to live in Southwest Florida and everyone is so much more homophobic there.
That's probably because there are more Catholics there I would think...
Catholics don't own being nice.
Trent and Luke, this is the most IMPORTANT video you've ever made. It's social significance is huge. The young man is astonishingly articulate for a 13 year old presenter. This will always rank as one of my favorite videos on your channel.
Ken Fraza thank you ! means so much 💓
Louis Packham You’re welcome Louis!
13 year olds are being pressured by their parents and being supported to do stupid decisions when their older when they ACTUALLY HAVE A FUCKING DEVELOPED MIND. Why do people think its alright to be this and that when boy and girl has existed for thousands of years. People like you question the norm all the time. Why can their be the cake gender? Why cant they have their bathroom? You should check your privilege. Really? Is that what you kinds of people got? Like i said boy and girl have existed for a very long time its like languages and numbers. We eventually used all the same numbers. Just because you feel straight on mondays and non existent unicorn gender on fridays doesnt mean its a real gender and its only existed since 2016.
@@kenfraza Hola gracias hombre
@@redfear7757 your point? And btw if you feel str8 on Monday I don't think you'll ever not feel str8. Yeah boy and girl have existed since the beginning so have gay people. Only that boy and girl was accepted and gay was not for no reason at all. Times have changed now and they're accepted. And btw being gay is not stupid or a decision. And no one is being pressured by their parents to be gay. Even if they somehow do try to pressure their kids to be gay..If they're not gay they're not gay. And that's it. Now the question is why do people like you and some parents pressure their gay kids to be str8?. Which in itself is impossible btw.
Hello, I am 13, and also gay, but I’m still in the closet. This is a private account so my friends and family shouldn’t know about this. My family is Christian so I feel like I’m walking on cardboard all the time. I haven’t really told anyone that I know yet, but I’m planning on maybe telling a few close friends soon. There is this one boy in my French class that I’ve really fallen in love with. He is lean and about 2-3 inches taller than me. He’s a competitive swimmer and I’m a competitive dancer so we are both quite athletic. There was this one special moment that happened when we stood really close to each other, chests almost touching - It was amazing… And I feel like that if he didn’t like me that he’d back away, but he didn’t. He’s insanely cute and seems so perfect. I’m on the other hand a little messy. I stammer sometimes and sometimes say the wrong thing. But not him. He always seems to say the right thing and is so flowy and calm when he speaks (if that makes sense). If there is any advice anyone has, I’m open to it. I just wrote this to share my story so far :)))
Thats a wonderful story , but i think u should tell this to ur parents first and then ur friends and try to get close to that guy but slowly and see if he starts liking u or not ,if yes then thats great , if not don't worry a rejection ain't much there will always be people that u may like and they like u back 😄
Maybe you're not gay. Because you are too young. Go to a psychologist and find out if you're really gay.
@@sirenes2813 what
@@anitathakur9340 I'm a psychologist. He needs psychological support. His family will disown him. and that's my opinion you can't interfere
@@sirenes2813 damn why r u getting so many likes? And how do u know his family will disown him?
(I'm not being judgemental, I'm just genuinely shocked) Children as young as 13 are now 'coming out' as gay!? It really is great to see young people so confident in themselves! I'm not a homosexual myself, but I have been a supporter of equal rights for as long as I can remember, long before it was decriminalised. I got up several petitions in the sixties when such things were very much taboo, I was often, falsely, accused of being homosexual(despite being married with children) for doing so. People couldn't understand why I should care so much about "sexual deviants" if I wasn't one myself! Maybe I'm just a romantic, I don't know? It just always seemed so unjust and, frankly, un-British to actively pursue people when they weren't harming anybody. Good luck to the young lad in this film I'm sure he'll grow into a fine man. I hope he's as lucky in finding a partner as I have been with my wife for the past 61 years.
Sexuality is decided in the first 6 weeks of life. Se yes, us 13 year old can come out as gay. You know when you hit puberty what you will like, so i guess it depends on that.
Actually I knew I was gay at the age of 12 I just didn't confront it until I was 16.
If we would live in a world and society that accepts it, we wouldn't have to lie about our feeling from the start, and we could be open about it at the exact age we get to know ourselves
Thank you for fighting for our rights! :)
I was gay as a child. My first crushes where all girls, and I started confronting when I was about 10, but I had a feeling of "this can't be it" and so I kept it for myself, maybe hoping I'd grow out of it. I only developed an attraction to men when I was 14 or 15. So yeah, I could have come out at his age, but I didn't feel like it was the right time.
Bitch i knew since i was 4
Oh man, who is cutting onions??? Louis is amazing, 13 years old and so clued up, so sensible and well spoken! What a credit he is to his Mum and Dad. As for Percy and Roger... 50 years together... AMAZING!! May you guys have many more happy years xx
Lauren* Thank you x
This is amazing and so wonderful for these two to be able to openly and frankly discuss their lives. I'm in awe, and a little jealous of those today being more able to be free and find love.
Really.. You are. You are so frank. And I like old man.
Wow. As an out gay man approaching middle age, watching this was extraordinary. Thank you.
feeling a bit emotional after that, what a moving video x
Scott Douglas It is very emotional , suprised i didn't cry whilst filming it ngl
Thanks Louis and Percy.
This was so cool guys, I am African American, brought up in the South, conservative Christian, I had my own beliefs on being gay, as well as everybodies around me. it was so hard growing up, but thank God I made it out, grew up, now living my life on my own terms, newly engaged to my best friend, I now live in Chicago, life could be better, but I am grateful, it is not as bad as some have it, thanks for this eye opening experience.
Gregory Walker God bless you 💕🏳️🌈
I dated a girl that thought she was bi for 10 hours and later she broke up with me because she realised she was straight. We’re still best friends thought.
I'm glad you guys are still friends! It's good that she realized she was actually straight with someone who continued to support her 😊

@@LouiCharlie two years is nothing
This 13 year old is being given an amazing gift,of insight into the world he will happily accept,but hearing the fight it’s taken for his freedom.
It’s brilliant
I had no idea homosexuality was decriminalized 50 years ago in the UK when this video came out, thats like... 1967. Meanwhile in the US it took until 2003!! I was born before homosexuality was legal, albeit only for a year but still! Thats rather sad isn't it?
Interesting. So I just looked up to see if Brian Epstein of The Beatles got to see the decriminalization act. It was put into effect July 27th, 1967. Brian died August 27th, 1967. One month exactly. I'd think he would've been happy. 😔
People who say that gay relationships don't last should watch this video. Those two gentlemen are still together to this day.
Right. Unlike heterosexual marriages, like Britney Spears, who married her boyfriend in Las Vegas in 2004 and had it annulled 2 days later. Or Carmen Elektra and Dennis Rodman, who were married for 9 days in 1998. Of course there's Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries, who divorced after 2 1/2 months in 2011. Then there's Lisa-Marie Presley and Nicolas Cage, Pamela Anderson and Kid Rock, Renee Zellweger and Kenny Chesney, Jennifer Lopez and Cris Judd and etc., etc., etc.

Oh shut it. You sound incredibly stupid when you post nonsense like this.
...I also find it interesting that you searched out and actually watched this vid, if you really are so against gay people... Seems to me, you're hiding something.
We should have more of this. There's a huge generation gap in the gay community and it really would help to sit down and learn where the two sides are coming from.

This is so epic I truly loved this, would love to here more. I'm 62 and came out to family at age 13 and to the world at 18. I have been there.
this is incredible! also if you listen with headphones you can here the 13 year old in one year and percy in the other. this is beautiful
This is such a beautiful video. I am so happy to have come across it!
This is awesome guys! Well done on making something so moving, educating, honest and well produced! :0)

6:15 subtle joke that goes unremarked
I really doubt a British man of 78 talking about events 60 years prior would know or even be dropping current American drag references...he means a cup of tea, rather than gossip :-)
when he said "Roger's bedroom is my bedroom" to his mother and she chose scotch over a cuppa when asked right after, he implied that she was in a bit of disbelief/shock/low-key WTF that he's gay but not in a hostile manner cuz she knew it's none of her business and that she wanted to drown the WTFness with booze. The way she chose scotch _is_ the humorous part that went unremarked by the boy, because what 14yo knows booze jokes?
timbearcub They meant him offering a cup of tea or scotch because his mother just figured out that they were a couple, and she said scotch. That was the funny partt.
I laughed and the glanced at Louis and he had a blank face....and I was like "Did this kid not get it?"
i understood what he meant. I
Videos like this make my heart swell for the lgbtq+ community. For everyone watching I hope ur having a great day! We've come so far and I'm proud to see what other walls we'll break down for this community
Ogay I’ve just subscribed, I love this video so much
This makes me feel so lucky, I went to my first pride when I was 13. Can't even begin to imagine what it would be like to not be open about who I am.
Being gay in Asia is not easy at all, even though society is open, the concept of Gay still can not escape the so-called traditional concept of the ancients. Gay concept was only popular in Asia about 10 year ago.
This is great video !
In which part of Asia do you live in? I live in the Philippines, and while most people don't mind if you're gay (except for Extremist Christians), the concept of gays is still very stereotypical due to the fact that a lot of the gay icons here are stereotypically gay. You can imagine how small minded the Filipino's view is on gay people. But the gay society here is very proud and is a vastly large group of LGBT+ members.
Carlo Mendoza true that.
Carlo : i live in a big city of VN and yes i understand your mean. In Philippines they also VN ... they don't mine if you are Gay!
But back 10 years ago, the concept of Gay is still new and still stumbles many old social prejudices. The LGBT community in Vietnam has grown a lot and it still growing !
And oh ! until now ! Still, some people are surprised and slightly grumpy when they know that i'm gay. But that's a minority because they're the ones who were before
Omg the way the conversation went on i started crying n the way boy told thank u its very very sweet its really wonderful
Wonderful, honesty, integrity and heartfelt good advice. A joy to watch!
Absolutely beautiful video! Amazing advice. Brought a tear to my eye
Jamie - TheLowDown 😅😅🏳️🌈
Jamie - TheLowDown it is truly amazing to hear that and I've always been afraid to come out because of my dad like my dad knows I'm bi but inside I know I'm gay and it's hard and not as easy because my dad makes fun of me for everything I do
this is amazing. so much respect for percy and any lgbt person that paved the path for me and any lgbt person in the new generation.
Left me in tears. Neighbors in life. And to you and yours, I thank you for posting this amazing and enlightening video. Cheers!
I thought my earphones had updated itself. They each had an ear from me....
This was quite informative... I like
i am 15 and gay this is the best vid I have seen in a long time
Disney Lover ❤️❤️❤️
loved it. please send some love over to India. we are still stuck with the same law that was struck down 50 years ago in the UK :(
Ritesh R *Love Sent* ❤️
He 78 and openly gay.Maybe just a phase 😂
Ok then, maybe being straight is a phase too
@@gladiatrix4310 it was sarcasm
@@blueskies7117you are the most naive and vacuous person I've ever seen on RUclips and in person , you dont agree with being gay but there happy , deal with it .
@@blueskies7117 they'd never fuck you lol
@@gladiatrix4310 Well said man. I don't believe that men are 100% straight anyway, since loads of them especially college dudes turn gay for money.
I’m scared of coming out , in my family I’m expected to grow up to marry some guy but I’ve liked girls for almost as long as I could remember. I hope to one day marry someone and have a happy healthy relationship .
Go for it hun I wish I would have told my mom because it came out in a different way that I wanted to. I finally told that I was being molested the person that I thought I could Trust lied tell my mom that I was bisexual my mom didn't really care though I just wish that I could have told her so it can be that moment for me and my mom to actually have a moment to talk so do it don't care what people think BE YOU
I understand ,just do whatever you ready as my advice is talk with mother first with good time laughs jokes then talks in lights things as like saying "what are you will do if I am gay?" Ask your mom then if she ask you are you gay to see if she got angry tone voice then better wait til you get older about saying 17 to 18 then your mom cant do about it as yours old enough to do whatever you want !! ITS TRUE !! TRUST ME OK ...IF NEED ANY ADVICE OR WANT TO ASK SOMETHING SHOOT THRU FB TO OK TAKE CARE AND HAVE A GREAT DAY !

PLEASE DON’T BE GAY it is wrong
Just beautiful, opened my eyes just to how different everything is now. Im grateful that I can just be myself and not be in fear of loving someone. I love you Trent and Luke and thank you for inspiring me to be myself everyday 😊
This makes my heart feel so so full. I'm so happy and lucky to be apart of such a loving, accepting community. Hearing both of their stories is truly inspiring. Such a beautiful beautiful video. 💕🌈
ZoeBearBish So happy you like it ❤️
ZoeBearBish Its your brain, not your heart that feels full! Only God and the things he bless can fill your heart... he loves you, and those people (like in the vid), but he doesn't approve that, as simple as that! Sorry but its the truth.
Such a wonderful interview! This is more like we young rebels had in mind for the future when we formed the Gay Power Movement back in the '70s. We've come a long way (no pun intended) since those culture-changing years. Bless you, young man, for contributing to a continuity of gay culture that was suppressed for so long. We helped change understanding and legal definitions. That's why one of the early battle cries was "Come Out of the Closet and into the Streets!" We did, and it worked.
What a beautiful exchange between the generations! We’re one human family 🏳️🌈
This is beautiful Trent and Luke! Thank you so much for this!
Corinna Michelle They are amazing directors ! They were so caring
This is an absolutely compelling video, REALLY special. Two of the loveliest people being completely open and talking about their lives and experiences - fascinating and truly heartwarming.
My goodness, that thirteen year old is one seriously together human being, I was an utter mess at that age! I would be so proud to be his parent.
Videos like this reassure me that the human race still has hope. This video should be shown in every school to help broaden those minds still in need of it.
Mikaela Bowen thank youuu x
Very impressive video. The young man is so sensible and mature for 13 years old, and Percy and Roger a lovely loving example of all a relationship should be. R.I.P. Dr. Roger Lockyer, died 28th October 2017. Condolences to Percy.
Peter Snell When i first met Roger (behind the scenes of the video) he was so polite, and caring. I am deeply saddened to hear the news 🤧👼🏻
Louis Packham Thank you for your reply Louis. Yes, Roger and Percy seem a delightful couple on the video. I am sure it must have been quite a thought provoking experience for all of you. Sad that Roger has gone, but his life must have been one of fulfilment in many ways. I am 65 next week, but when I was your age, which does not seem very long ago, I felt that life would go on forever. Have a happy life, and always be kind to others. It will be reciprocated in so many ways. Having said that I can tell from your appearance in the video that you are both kind and thoughtful, and willing to learn from the experiences of those who have gone before. Also be proud of everything you are. I hope later in your life you will be as happy as I am with my husband. All the best for the future. Peter.
Peter Snell Thank you , Have a amazing birthday!
I'm a straight guy, and this is quite amazing. There are many things wrong with our society rn, but we are definitely more accepting of everyone in this day and age
