The other day my dad said “I don’t say I’m a cis man, I’m just a man. I don’t use these new words that they’re insisting on these days” and I’m still very proud of my comeback: “well, it’s Latin so it’s not really ‘new’….it’s like, extremely old”

I was at a coffee shop the other day and the barista was not sure of my gender. I am non-binary and I look very fluid. She said " What will you have friend?" I was very impressed! Way better then "mame , sir I mean mame" Even though she was visually uncomfortable at first, ahe was professional. I will be going back to that shop. My pronouns are any, as long as you are being polite to me.

The lions aren't a trans family-- they're a gay pride.

Im nonbinary and once had a Booomer get mad and stalk my profile and proceed to tell me "I can't even tell if you're a man or a woman!" and I was just like "OMG thank you! Thats literally what Im going for." and he stopped replying. I know that was an insult when he was young, but it gave me gender euphoria and he can't take that back. 😂

Slight side note, it bugs me when transphobes say men and women are born as men and women. They start as *babies*. Small wrinkled flesh things with no desires or opinions except that they want physical comfort, food, and a familiar big person to be there for them. Every other care comes later. Self-image? Caring what anyone thinks of them? Nah, every single person here regardless of gender started as a little blob alternating between needy, happy, and asleep.

The trans fish reminded me of a wholesome interaction I had at work. A young girl was checking out LBGT+ children's books and I told her about how we were hosting a pride art event at the library. We were also giving out paper fish for kids to color. She proceeded to show me her lesbian flag fish and said "You guys won't throw it away?" I told her absolutely not and that all the fish can get along even though their all different. It was such a heartwarming moment to see how happy being accepted made her

the very fact that we can CHOOSE our clothing kinda suggests it's NOT tied to our gender/sex yeah?

Too bad Better Help was caught selling patient information. Therapy is Important, and if you can trust them by all means use the service. But taking advantage of people in vulnerable positions, hearing their problems and just selling that information. Its disgusting. And I will never trust them.

Please don't choose better help as a sponsor as others people had said a lot of people doesn't get help they don't assist to meeting or they are toxic!

Jamie, I love you, but please look into how bad Better Help are. While some people do get help, for the most part they are not good, I've seen all kinds of horror stories ahout them. They have some very shady practices too.

I love when people say that they/them isn't singular then proceed to use it in the singular context. Good job, babe. You're proving something we've known since the 13th century.

Super disappointed to see you with a better help sponsorship. ☹ There's lots of info out there on the messed up stuff they've been doing, including having trans people assigned to transphobic counselors. I recommend Mickey Atkins as a good place to start for more info.

"What other fish can be trans?" Clownfish can also transition!

I’d like to say as a cis straight person that you are all valid, no matter who you like or what you identify as - boy, girl, neither, I don’t care. You are a human being who deserves rights, love and kindness. Hope you all have a nice day

Ha ha ha, these remind me of an exchange I actually had with a kid at my library job a while ago. I'm AFAB nonbinary, present very masculine but I'm not on HRT so my voice is still feminine. The kiddo was asking me to help her find a book and initially "sir'd" me until I started talking, where she swapped to "miss." After we got the book she wanted, she very frankly told me "You know when you look like that people won't be able to tell if you're a boy or a girl" and I replied with equal frankness, "Yes, I do that on purpose."

5:27 going to always say this to the day I freaking- genderreveals were started by a woman who was celebrating finally getting pregnant after several unfortunate miscarriages. It wasn't supposed to be this Forest destroying life-ending thing, and she is horrified about what it has become. The gender reveal was a simple cake. On top of that, it was later revealed that her child was actually non-binary. So you know what she did? She threw a *_second_* gender reveal party for her non-binary child. To say that gender reveals are pointless is to say that birthdays are pointless. They don't necessarily have to have an intrinsic meeting or a point in order to be something that is supposed to be a happy occasion.

They hurt themselves in their own confusion j like pokemon LMFAO💀

Reminds me of how my mom called me a boy accidentally a few times, before I even fully came out ( I'm transmasc and always felt uncomfortable being called a girl ). The fun part is that both my parents are quite transphobic

The “alien abduction” scenario reminds me of the “gay island vs straight island” thing. Stupid, pointless, hypothetical situation that is never going to matter.

" 'I'm not cis I'm normal.'If you're not cis you're trans." - sounds like the TRANsitive property to me

"My daughter thinks rich people are evil! I must show her the error of this!" *drops enough money to solve poverty, also many more times than the actual website's worth, on purchasing a website so he can control what people say if it goes against what he likes*

Kids stare at me when I’m on my mobility scooter, that’s ok, it makes me laugh. One staring kiddo was so entranced by me, that they were immovable! The parent said to their kid “move for the……person” and that pause gave my nonbinary heart so much joy.

Theres something so good about somebody being an ally by trying to be a phobe

I have a hoodie with "I'm not cis I'm normal" on it and "normal" is in trans colors

“Fish can trans, lots of animals can” 😂 Love you Jamie

Jamie please research your sponsors. Better help has a very shakey history and not something you should promote to people who need real, professional therapy

Thanks for uploading. I was told I didn't exist (AFAB Nonbinary). Your video made me feel a little better.

Hey Jamie! I love your videos. But i'm sure your unaware but please do not continue to sponser better help, many people have come out about their horrible experiences with the resource recently and it is not a safe place for those who need help. Stay safe Jamie, I hope you understand.

I mean even outside of gender issues i identify as a goth, i like goth music, literature, film, and even the cringier parts like how we dance, do i dress "like a goth" 24/7 and sleep in a coffin? Absolutely not it takes hours to do my makeup, put in my contacts, and choose an outfit. Today, it is grey sweats, a maroon deadpool long-sleeve t-shirt, and rainbow beanie, im still a goth even if i dont look like a goth today (also have you priced a coffin in America recently? Im made of chaos, darkness, and dumbassery, not money)

It’s awful how someone like Elon can be transphobic when his own daughter is trans i honestly can’t imagine how bad that must be. And for all of you out there going through this much love and i hope things get better soon❤❤❤.

Quick story of my own past ignorance. Before I took an active role in learning about transitioning I was SO confused if "trans man/woman" was for pre or post transition. I was so nervous of getting it wrong I basically avoided it all together. Then someone I know came out and I dove deep to learn all the right things. AGAIN, your channel has been a godsend for learning and understanding. Thank you!!!

Hey, you're still a man, and you'll always be a man! So proud of you that you stopped pretending to be a girl over a decade ago! You've come a long way. Sincerely, a fellow trans person.

Self-owns are a beautiful thing to witness, especially when they lead to accidental allyship.

Love the idea that aliens from another world developed advanced interstellar faster than light travel but had no way of monitoring our telecom networks to like, access the Wikipedia article so instead they abduct two random people and are all “okay now make baby for us.”

That gender not tied to your clothing comment is gold. They really are confused!

I’m out as non binary now, and my chosen name is Jamie (partially because of you, but also I just find the nickname Jam hilarious) Thank you for posting these they’re really amazing for the LGBT+ community ❤

I know this isn't accidental allyship, per say, but when I was in my tech training program we had a self-defense class we could optionally sign up for, and, on a whim, I signed up for the men's self-defense class. It was a bit awkward, because I'm not far into transitioning, but when the big dude in the class came over to practice with me we went through the drills without a word spoken or a singular moment of hesitation. I had that guy in a headlock until the instructor told us to swap to another exorcise, and that moment's always stuck with me because in the face of a group of awkward young adult men he accepted me right into the group and put me through the paces with no awkwardness at all. Probably one of the first moments where I felt like I really fit in and found my people.

not betterhelp.. cmon jamie

Posted this on another accidental allies video but I'll share my story here too. So I'm nonbinary, and this is back when I was still going by my deadname. My search engine is connected to a news site, and at the time I didn't know how to disable it. Looking back the news site was very far right in terms of beliefs, and a lot of stuff about trans people was very negative. So one day there was this article about one (can't remember what it was about unfortunately) and I decided to go into the article's comments and defend the person since a lot of people were being hateful. This one person must've thought I was transfem (I'm AFAB) and replied to my comment, calling me Kenny instead of my now deadname. So anyways I now go by the name Ken out of spite. Thanks for the new name, asswipe.

As a trans person, "imagine if aliens abducted a cis dude and a trans woman" or "imagine if aliens abducted a cis chick and a trans dude" sounds like the kind of joke I'd make to my partner at 3 A.M. about aliens who did all their research through conservatives being poorly led to a wrong conclusion. If I didn't know it was meant to make fun of trans people as not what they identified as, I'd have assumed it was a queer shitpost.

I’ve watched your videos for three years and you helped me through my homophobic parents! Thank you so much for your help even if you didn’t mean to :) Love you, Jamie! Have a good day!

I also used to struggle with differentiating the terms "trans man" and "trans woman" and believed there was only one way to be trans when I was 10

4:50 I'd say there's an accidental ally angle the moment they say aliens who are advanced enough to travel between stars see a trans woman as a woman. They can't possibly be so scientifically backwards they can't detect the variation from cis women so they obviously just went (in their language) "that one's a woman, that one's a man. Grab them." In my head they'll just finish her transition to make up for what our tech lacks once she's on board.

clownfish can transition ;) In biology we call these organisms "Sequential hermaphrodites", because they dont produce male or female gametes at the same time but at different stages of life. Simultaneous hermaphrodites would be translated into culture as the intersex experience i suppose. Although we're talking about functional possible autofecuntation very fertile organisms. A lot of animals can transition as sequential hermaphrodites... some fishes, some frogs, some jellyfishes, flatworms, earth worms, sponges, some water arthropods, there could be more, who knows!? But the parrot fish is knews to me! just learned about it today.

I went to the panel at Attenborough in Brighton and you slayed man. It was so cool to see you, Rebecca and Vinnie all chat (asexual rep was sick to see) :)

❤🧡💛💚💙💜🏳️‍🌈 Daily reminder; You are valid and amazing just the way you are! 🏳️‍🌈❤🧡💛💚💙💜

I feel like the world would be different if we called gender reveal parties "sex reveal parties".

I like when people quote genetics trying to be tansphobic and don't understand how genetics works

Whenever somebody somebody says that they/them is plural I go "Somebody lost THEIR car keys. THEY'LL probably be back soon. It shouldn't take too long, THEY can't get very far without THEIR car keys. Hopefully THEY didn't have a lot more shopping to do, otherwise it might take THEM longer to realise", and I'll keep going as long as I feel like it, emphasizing every they/them/their. Is it immature? Yes. Does it annoy the person? Hell Yes. Does it make a difference? Sometimes, and that's good enough for me.

The piece of art in those frames is a picture of an angel shielding two children as they're crossing a dangerous bridge over a river. If you want, you can interpret the combination of that with the colours as a desire to protect our trans friends in the dangerous world out there. :) I hope you're all staying safe and happy!

Love you Jamie!!💛💛🥔🥔

My favourite accidents ally moment was in the comment section of an enby person who uses all pronouns. There was a transphobe in the comments who kept trying to misgender them by using She/Her pronouns for him. They were trying to use the wrong pronouns. For someone who uses all pronouns. Including she/her.

I like how they think that these technologically advanced aliens wouldn’t be able to tell if people are trans, thus proving that trans people are the gender they say they are.

I'm a painter, and recently I was painting a trans kid room. It was wall paper on half the I removed and pink on the bottom half. Under the wall paper was white. The walls were going blue, so when I was cutting in the walls, it looked like the trans flag. Their mom took a picture to send to the kid lol

As a cis male person human who has long hair i take great pleasure in confusing strangers in public.

fun-fact, under certain circumstances lionesses can indeed also grow a mane. It's semi-rare, but it does happen.

Some bad news for the haters of singular they: My sister is a high school teacher and according to her the teens have been switching to just using they/them for everyone.

Gotta Love an accidental ally

I just discovered you and your wife, and I absolutely love these videos. Happy to find.

im not trans nor lgbtq but seeing that the lgbtq community went from being hated to being just a part of society makes me happy. i don't care about your gender, sexuality, if you're trans or not, etc. the only thing i care about is that you want to videoplay videogames with me like buddies

Wohoo a new video :) I´m having a hard time right now and you and your content is really helping me through all of it! Thank you so much, Jame

We watched your transition video in class (we were doing about transphobia and stuff) the other day and i think you genuinely taught my class and teacher things so thanks for that :]]]

My family would call me Jerry as a joke, then I started to try out the name as a joke, the jokes stopped after that.

Better help is a scam, pls read more about it before doing an ad ;-;

I'm AFAB and genderfluid, and speek with anti-trans is always funny. I have PCOS so i have beard. When they tall me "god don't make mistake" I replie " yes nature don't make mistake, it's why I have periods and beard. I'm a men AND a Women."

Theres a new game on steam (only the demo itll be released soon) its called fish game and in the game so far there is only male fish but some of them naturally spawn named "smol gurl" or "smol enbee" and i thought you guys would appreciate the trans fish in the game

Jamie is one of the best KZfaqrs I know he actually knows what he is talking about when it comes to trans people and helps me feel more like a person rather than a weirdo who wants to be a man. Thank you. 🏳🌈

Ok! The whole alien abduction thing reminded me of an episode of an anime I watched YEARS ago. It had an alien princess of an all female species going to earth to find her perfect match and she does with a Trans Man... which her species helped him transition with gene therapy. Took me forever to go down the rabbit hole to find what the hell the anime was called, it was "Level E" and it was basically a bunch of short stories about aliens living on earth and what they do when they're there, kinda like MiB. Thanks for reminding me of it~ It originally came out in 2011, same year as Stein's Gate and Madoka Magica.

I love this series! Sometimes, I see similar behaviors from strangers in my own life and it's not only funny but also validating in a way 😂❤

A new video from you always puts me in a good mood :D

I literally got a transphobic ad right before the video you have got to be kidding me- 💀💀💀

hey did any of you also get a tuttle twins bootcamp ad before this video?? EDIT: YALL IM NOT EVEN KIDDING I JUST GOT A "GENDER TRANSFORMATION- THE UNTOLD REALITIES" AD TOO IM SOBBING

Re validation from bullies: I (a transwoman) don’t know how to process getting catcalled. Because obviously it’s threatening and sexist, but it also means that I look feminine enough for someone to assume I’m a woman. It’s gender affirming in the worst possible way, and I don’t know what to think about it

I'm at a loss as to why people get hysterical by less that 1% of the population

i was once walking down a road while trick or treating last halloween and i saw someone had a trans lighthouse metal pole decor on their lawn,i actually took a photo of it and t made my day it was my favourite halloween ever :)

damn men your voice is real deep in these clips you put in crazy my headphones were vibrating ^^

They/Them referring to a singular person in the English language is OLDER than the singular use of You. Singular 'you' used to be thee/thy, so if someone uses singular you then they are using a newer grammatical innovation than using they/them to refer to a single person.

I had my first accidental ally! (FTM -- non-binary) (Haven't started hormones yet but hopefully soon!) I'm careful when I'm at my doctor appointments at the VA Medical Hospitals cause of all the variety of Veterans there (There are a lot of hateful ones unfortunately...Trump cultists and the like). Anyways, I was waiting for the doctor that wanted to double check a procedure I just got done. So I was in the waiting room with my husband and this guy that just got done explaining to a nurse why he didn't want to get a flu-shot (yup, anti-vaxer as well) then he sits down and turns to us. "You two look the same! Are you brothers? I bet you get that a lot." Firstly and most importantly, we look nothing a like. Secondly I've always fallen under the 'well no idea what gender you are so....' (fricken thankfully) but I can pass a bit more male leaning -- like I prefer -- with voice training and people not using my old first name. Knowing they are *that* type of person we just politely say no, not related but don't elaborate since we'd feel unsafe and don't like conflict. He chitters on -- thankfully just about traffic -- and we just nod politely until they busy themselves with something else. But WOO!! I PASSED!! Bahahaha

Always appreciate your reactions ^^ thank you

That whole alien abduction scenario is so ridiculous. Like even if you picked up two people capable of procreating together they won't have enough genetics diversity to continue the species anyway

I love that people think Cis is a made up word!

"why does everyone in first world countried need to be so quirky and different?" My NB brasilian ass: lmao allow me to introduce myself

I'm so sorry Carlos Santana said that. He's a great musician and it would be nice if he was nice too. Back in the nineties he was epic. We all loved his music! It's sad that bigotry is prevalent in social media. I'm sorry.

I am a closeted trans man and I want to get my hair cut, but I have no idea where to start. Can someone please help? :)

First 3 minutes of Jamie posting an awesome video? LET'S GOOOOO!!!

Jamie, isnt "Better Help" denounced by therapists?

I feel like being agender is the easiest way around transphobes. "you're not a girl" true "I mean, you're not a guy!" also true "I won't use any pronouns on you!" oh sweet, that's what I prefer anyway

Had a baby on the 4th and all the baby hats were trans flag colors, so cute!

I'm a cis man. I can't reproduce. We used a donor and my kids are great. I love them very much.

When ignorance is your main source of ideals, mistakes like these are inevitable and hilarious.

Beep beep Richie was AMAZING on so many levels.

the long hair one reminded me a lot of my family, I always wanted to grow my hair out but I was never allowed to, my mom would make me sit in chair and use buzzer to buzz it off. But every time she was trying to get me to just sit down and cooperate one of her go to statements would be you don't want to look like a girl do you. It was so hard sometimes not to slip up and say yes that's the point mom, to my deeply religious mom. Like I knew it wouldn't go well, and I was very likely right since I found out after leaving for university of someone from my same church who was guided into conversion therapy by our pastor and I am sure my parents would choose to follow pastors guidance also. So I avoided that but staying closeted and hidden while hearing the anti-lgbt (or basically anti- me) stuff a lot still did a number on my mental health.

How do you fail at hating something? Like cmon guys at least be a little consistent.

Hi everyone. I'm asking a genuine question : what do "transmasc" and "transfemme" exactly mean? What is the difference between transmasc and trans man and transfemme and trans woman? Is my question clear? 😅 I don't understand despite all the content I saw on Jamie's channel lol. Also it's a bit confusing because in my language we use English for these words and "femme" means woman. Have a nice rest of the day, thank you if you answer

I loved the one about not believing we landed on the moon. It's like the first half of the statement sssscreamed "don't believe anything I ever say" and it was followed by ignorable transphobia. Chefs kiss.

This sounds like a conversation I was in 11:20 and I think I was the reply. Nice.

Some people just make me tired, and doesn't hating on people all the time make the phobes tired?

Clown fish transition. Lots of fish, really. Interestingly and sort of relatedly ,we've had many homosexual fish in our aquarium too. Mollies and anableps are live-bearers, so the anal fin of the male is a sex- organ. I've seen several members of both species who have had preffered same-sex partners.

There are loads of trans fish! Of course there is the Clownfish, but also the Okinawa Goby, that goes both ways, Plainfin Midshipman who will turn to a male if there are too many females in his school, and so many more

yay jamie posted!!!
