I'm not religious at all, but I heard this very Christian-y quote earlier: "God made me transgender for the same reason he made wheat but not bread, and fruit but not wine. So that humanity may share in the act of creation" I thought it was pretty badass. Edited to add: it's by Julian K. Jarboe!

My Grandma was 94 when I came out as trans to her. She said (in a thick Irish accent) "well I guess you always did act like a boy didn't ya?" then nodded and said "well if you're happy, then I'm happy". She's 99 now and my biggest fan. If people misgender or deadname me she yells at them and says "that's me grandson!"

I accidentally came out to my grandad when I loudly talked about something to do with being a trans man without knowing that my mum was on a call with him. He was very accepting of it but he said when I fully transitioned and visited him that he would introduce me as his granddaughter and watch as people would lose their minds over it and I was fully on board with that as it would have been very funny. Unfortunately he passed away not long after that conversation but I was glad that our last conversation was him accepting me as a trans man and thinking of ways we could make fun of people

Remember ya'll. You are NOT a woman/man in the body of a man/woman. You are a woman/man in A body with wrong parts installed, but that body is still yours, a body of a woman for transwomen and a body of a man for transmen. It's the fault of a tired production line worker getting the order a little wrong, it's not your fault as a customer. Please contact your local product support to retrofit appropriate parts. Also please keep in mind that this is not a fraud. If you're unhappy with your chassis then that is the correct and appropriate stance as customer satisfaction is all we have. It is objectively impossible to fake this, so don't feel bad about wanting something better for yourself. You deserve to be and are entitled to being happy with the vessel you inhabit.

This is what i eventually had to tell myself honestly. When i was little (about 5th grade) I started to question why i got so uncomfortable and unhappy when i was called “she/her” and how even if i was being complemented i still felt bad about being called that, and at the time I really wanted to ask my mom about why i felt that way but stopped myself because I could see that stuff made HER happy and I felt she was going to get upset with me for saying it felt wrong so I decided to keep her happy and shelf my discomfort to keep her happy. Then it wouldn’t be until i was in the 10th grade that i was able to figure out what made me happy and come to the conclusion that I couldn’t keep only trying to make other people comfortable. Its a tough pill to swallow but very important to acknowledge

When my nephew came out as trans, he was worried that my mom wouldn't understand as she is starting to show signs of dementia. But the opposite has happened! She not only remembers to call him by his preferred pronouns and new name, she yells at my sister (his mom) when she doesn't. My family seemed to forget that our mom lived in a hippie commune in the late 60's early 70's between kids. She very much has always believed that you are who you say you are and you love who you want to love. How my older siblings could forget that is beyond me. Us younger ones; however, have never forgotten.

Prior to mutually agreeing to break up we had a discussion that makes SO MUCH MORE SENSE now that I know we're both trans. I'm glad she found who she is.

For me it was friendships, but I had a longtime friend who came out as a trans man several years after I met him. Years later when I came out as nonbinary myself, I found out that another longtime friend was genderqueer, and a friend I'd recently made was nonbinary as well. People with similar lived experiences tend to gravitate towards each other, even if they're not aware of the exact reasons why.

My mom still has some doubts about my transition (and transition in general) but she's become very loving and supportive of my identity. Studies have shown that just knowing someone who is LGBTQ can make people less hateful of them, and our moms are living proof of that!! To clarify, her doubts mostly revolve around women transitioning to a different gender identity. She's concerned that those people are allowing stereotypes about what a woman is to affect them to the point that they decided to change their identities, when they could be a woman and still defy those stereotypes. She's also concerned about losing women that support feminism. I think she's starting to get it now that I've transitioned to genderfluid. Her points are valid, she's just misunderstanding why people transition in the first place. I wonder if that's what your mom was thinking before?

Fun story about a sort-of-coming-out-but-not-really to a grandma. She has dementia and didn't remember who myself and my sibling are, so we were always reminding her in conversation. My sibling goes by a new name while I kept mine (also trans) and both AFAB. My grandma would try and remember us by saying "so there was the girl [my name] and the boy..." and wouldn't remember my siblings name. We would remind her using my siblings deadname for clarity. She said "ah yes, [deadname]. I always thought that was a strange name for a boy." It was delightful.

My wife went to a very highly recommended endo for her hormones, and he had to do some paperwork for insurance purposes that included some rude, invasive and unnecessary questions, with which he tried very hard to be delicate. One of them was our sexuality, and we're both pan. This is government paperwork in a country that has barely accepted gay marriage, there is no bi box if you're trans, and someone in an office somewhere would scream if they were told there's more than 4 options. After a bit of confusion, the doctor decided "well, you are both women and you're in a devoted marriage, so I guess I can put you're practicing lesbians." Afterwards, I found myself giggling, and my wife asked why. I pointed out, we'd been married for nearly 9 years. We weren't practicing lesbians, we were *certified* lesbians.

I never came out to her, but out of the blue one day she texted me saying how much she loved and supported me, along with my boyfriend at the time. It really took me by surprise, but felt great nonetheless. Since then, she’s been openly defensive of me towards her transphobic friends and family, and it’s really heartwarming to see.

I'm a similar age, and similarly did not realize I was trans until a couple years ago. There will always be a part of me that wishes I could have known sooner, so I could have started transitioning earlier. However, the language and tools simply did not exist when I was growing up, and I don't know if I would have been mature or informed enough to figure things out at the time. Everyone grows at their own pace, and you're ready when you're ready. It's never too late, and you're never too old to be who you were meant to be.

I know exactly what you mean! I'm 48 and my egg just cracked a year ago. I had gotten so close to figuring it out in college, but the people I turned to for help back then didn't point me in the right direction. I wish I could go back to 14, so I could have the experience of going through high school and college as a girl. (Sure, technically "I was a girl the whole time", but I didn't get the experience of it, because that's not how people saw me, and I didn't even fully realize it myself.) Actually, I wish I could go back to age 5 or so, because at that age, I really wanted to be a Girl Scout. I still feel like I missed out on something.

I’m 34 and only figured out a few months ago that I’m a guy. It’s always so affirming to find other people whose egg cracked late, cause you see trans people who have always known so often. That was probably one of the reasons I figured myself out so late, cause “if I was really trans, I would’ve known as a kid already”. I wish you folks all the best. We got this! 😁

We had a miscommunication that resulted in my mom thinking my aunt had an onlyfans, when in reality, she's an extremely shy, low-self-esteem recluse. Edit: The hilarious part was that my mom was confused, but supportive.

To share my own, I actually didn't discover this channel through trans stuff. I found this channel when I realised that I was bisexual and came to the internet for support. My time in the closet and sexuality crisis was relatively short-lived. I thought I was straight because I'd only ever liked guys and then suddenly, I liked a girl and I didn't know what to do with it. I had just a few days coming to terms with it where I just stayed at home, didn't talk to anyone, and I spent that time watching Jamie's videos on bi memes and things like that. It really, really helped me to come to terms with this new thing that I'd discovered about myself. You helped me a lot as well, Jamie. Thank you. Fun fact to add: it was also in the comments section of a Jammidodger video where I first came across the gender label that I currently identify with.

For context I'm trans non-binary, pronouns they/them/he/him; I was walking and this older gentleman was walking in my direction and he said "good morning young lady" and I said back "not lady". I was expecting that he may come off transphoic or be grossed out because that's what normally happens but instead he surprised me and said "oh, good morning young boy"! I was shocked and so happy and said thank you. I don't think that person knows how gender affirming that was 💖🥰💖

Wholesome story time! So I got top surgery on my 24th birthday two years ago, and of course I wasn't able to celebrate the day of, being off my ass on pain meds. So my grandparents helped me make it more a birthday "month" to celebrate this momentous occasion. At one point my grandma helped me make a four-layered cake from scratch with the nonbinary flag colors. ^^ Would also like to point out my grandparents drove me four hours up to Cleveland, OH for my surgery and helped me with my drains. They struggle with the pronouns, but they're the most amazing support system I could’ve asked for.

I watched Love, Simon a couple of weeks before my oldest went off to college. There's a bit in it about reinventing/coming out when going to college, and when the movie was done, they looked at me and said, well, I almost made it to college first. At that point they then identified as a lesbian...after a couple of years that expanded to another term I don't remember, it doesn't matter, but when they came home that year with a boyfriend they were nonbinary. They (and that boyfriend) got married earlier this year. The name change I'm solid with, I occasionally flub up the pronouns but I'm as happy for them as I could possibly be, they're doing great!

I'm happy with my assigned gender, even though I don't fit into the stereotype of what society says I should look/sound like. I'm a bit hairy, my voice is low, and I lean more towards masculine traits despite my identity as female. I'm saying this because I want people to know that if you feel gender dysphoria, it's absolutely valid. Don't let people gaslight you into thinking you're just a confused tomboy/femboy or anything like that. I'm 100% a tomboy and I don't feel any dysphoria at all. So if you're questioning yourself today, asking if you're REALLY trans, don't worry, you almost certainly are. In my experience, a cis person doesn't question their cis-ness, even if they act or appear more like the opposite gender.

I feel the same way! … kinda… there *are* times I wonder… but then I think about being referred to as a different gender, and I get this weirdly adverse reaction that makes me feel like what I think dysphoria might feel like…? It’s a curious thing, but I’m a cis woman for sure. With that in mind, I have a best friend from when I was literally still a toddler in preschool, and he and I grew up thinking we were both cis, just happened to be tomboys. Mainly because that was the only term we had. Once we were older and had the term trans, he figured himself out, and came out to me. After that I wondered a bit, and eventually settled on being cis after an interaction where someone online called me sir, and my immediate reaction was to correct them, even though at the time I was testing out nonbinary/gender fluid online, and felt really uncomfortable when I didn’t correct them… and in that moment I knew I was cis. All this to say, both my best friend and I were “tomboys” growing up, but, after having the term trans, only one of us turned out to be an actual boy all along. Proof that telling someone about trans people won’t make someone trans. It’s innate and something you know. It’s just hard to figure out until you try to go by different pronouns and learn if you like them or not.

I'm not trans, but I am bi. I have mentioned this in another of Jammi's videos before. But I do struggle with questioning whether or not my mom would have accepted me for who I am. She was so sweet and an amazing influence in my life and how I turned out. But she passed in my early twenties, before I really even knew myself. And there were some antequated ideas about homosexuality and a few bigoted anecdotes passed around from the older generations and some bi erasure type comments. And I know where they come from. I'm not trying to justify it. But I loved her and I know she loved me. But we never really had that talk and now we never can. It still makes me sad and I still think about it sometimes. I can never really know for certain if she'd have loved me for me, you know?

I call the thing with hearing what was said but taking a moment to understand it "hearing lag." My partner took a liking to the term because it perfectly describes the struggle. We both experience it, but we were the only ones at the place we used to work. I don't know about my current coworkers, but my partner's current coworkers all have it

my guess is that the passport at age 14 country doesn't stop you from getting one when you're younger, but rather a country that values international travel and as such standard issues passports at that age. If anyone knows more, I would love to learn about it.

In my country we get a passport at 14 :D This means that before this age you'd need an another, international passport to travel abroad, and a birth certificate to deal with other stuff that usually require a passport tbh I thought this system was everywhere so I'm a bit surprised that some never heard of it

In Germany you get your ID card (sufficient for travel within most of Europe) between 14 and 16, before that, a simpler 'children's pass' is enough. For further traveling, an internationally recognized passport is needed regardless of age afaik.

I (European) have a Brazilian coworker who supports Bolsonaro and is also very catholic and almost 50. I came out as trans to everyone at work last week and she was among the people I expected to show at least some signs of transphobia, but she’s been super supportive. Today she messaged me cause she noticed my birth name on some work document and asked if I want it changed, then we talked a bit about my transition and she asked some questions and told me how things are for trans people in Brazil and all. I’m not even close with her and we even had some arguments in the past, so I was surprised. So I wish you the best of luck, but I’m sure she’ll be accepting :)

I've got a similar story but an enby version. So I am 17 and have been trying to pass as enby for years now, unfortunately I was born in a body that is 6'2" and has a bass voice so passing as anything other than masculine is difficult. Recently at my job a creepy older guy said "what alcohol do you recommend" as I was bagging his groceries, before I could answer he added "you could come back to my place and we could drink it together, you know I like girls on the taller side" I responded in my deepest bass voice "I'm 17 that's creepy" and he said "oh shoot I thought you were 25" this happens almost every day

My 17-year-old trans daughter gets hit on by older male customers a lot. It is super creepy, but she calls it "eewphoria." Hopefully, in spite of the creep factor, it is still enby-affirming for you!

Even as a cisgender female, I’m a little awkward with bringing pads into public restrooms. I don’t know why, because it’s completely natural. It doesn’t feel awkward to buy them, but when I open them in the bathroom, it’s so noisy that it feels like everyone in there knows, and then I feel weird about it.

You're so right Jamie. I see it every day - transphobes being stuck in puberty level biology education and refusing to learn more. We live in an era of three word slogans and experts being the enemy so I wonder sometimes if there is even any hope.

My ex is trans. He figured it out early on but we live in a excessively conservative state and he couldn't be himself. We're still friends and only broke up cause he had an opportunity to go to California. He has all his surgery done finally and I'm so happy for him.

Years ago, I was gently teasing a (not-out) friend by using a diminutive of her name (e.g. if you have a friend named Jack, saying something like “Aw, is little Jackie mad?”) It went even better than I imagined: she loved the name, thought it was adorable, and has gone by it ever since. It’s pretty much her new name now, especially since she came out as trans. People who have known her much longer than I have call her that now. I’m actually really proud of that.

The we've switched genders thing reminds me of my friend. He and his sister are both trans and their mom had the idea that they should swap middle names. Since their dead names weren't particularly bothersome to them either, they took those as their middle names too. Now they each have their chosen name and two middle names that used to belong to their sibling which I just think is super cute lol! Also the thing where you don't know what they said until your brain has time to process it is an audio processing issue. As someone with an audio processing disorder, it happens quite frequently to me 😅
