try training your voice to speak lower & tell people "um, I'm a guy" if they get it wrong

anthony grassi do youwear tightt shirts, have a Bieber or hipster cut, you wear tightt jeans and converse low tops?

Well you are a magnificent man :) ignore silly people who can't grasp your gender x

Get a shirt & write "don't misgender me, IM A GUY"

anthony grassi saaammme, yesterday this lady was all like "excuse me sir" and i got rrly excited but then she went "oh sorry, i mean ma'am" and all my hopes and dreams were crushed right then and there

Why do you go there? Most of the true girls I know can't wear skirts

Me too. I am AFAB and the dysphoria hits HARD.

LemonDrink123 private school

LemonDrink123 me neither

@Please ask for my Pronouns not all private schools have a uniform tho

That sounds really funny, yet it is such a simple solution for gendered advertising! ^-^

What company is that I want to buy the hell out of their products

i got that one too!

Jay Jay the Jet Plane I got the same ad

He actually made a video trying them (:

Thank you, I couldn't hear him properly.

Lol u go buddy

Omg I love this, thank u!!! 💕

My mom made me wear a dress and I just had long leg hair it worked and my mom is yet to ask me again

tyyyy

I’m on the non-binary spectrum and I sometimes wear my binder under my one piece jumpsuit, and the suit has spaghetti straps with a v-neck, so when I wear it like that, it just feels very stylish, like I’m a stylish enby. Also, I bought some new summer stuff recently, including a red bikini top, a pair of men’s swim trunks with a striped sunset color scheme on it, and a short sleeve summery yellow button up shirt. I layered it all together and looked in the mirror today, and…..wow. That was the first time I ever thought I looked hot. EVER. It made me soooo happy! I'm a happy enby ready for summer! 😁😁😁

@@weirdogirl1275 That sounds like such a vibe.

"dystopia"? That's one way of describing GD lol

Oml meee. It sucks! 🥺

@@sorbetsalut7933 I didn't even realise I spelt dysphoria wrong till now I-

I'm going through the same thing. This comment was posted eight months ago, so... any improvement? Are things clearer for you now? I'd like to know what to do, help-

@@sationalsen tbh im still in the endless loop of am I- arn't I, I've been kinda of pushing it down and not really thinking about it (which you shouldn't do aha) . My advise though, if you are going through something similar that is , too get a gender counselor (admittedly this might be hard considering the current state of everything atm) . Also possibly just take it one step at a time, talk to your friends about it maybe even a relative (I understand though if you don't feel you can). Honestly theres no timer on these things its gunna be confusing for a while but eventually everything will turn out alright. 👍🏻 i wish you best of luck 😁

OriginOfSymmetry I only have one problem, PEOPLE. Chaning rooms or toilets aren't the problem, it's always people.

same, I always hurry up as much as I can and try to go in when no one else is there. If you pass at least a little you could give a try to the toilets that you prefer

OriginOfSymmetry same

DieAlteistwiederda I feel the same way the first time I used the Men’s bathroom I was out of it from taking meds to help me relax for a MRI lol I barely remember much lol . I didn’t use the men’s room till now all the time . Once people call you the right pronouns u know u pass then u can use what bathroom u are needing to use . If u are FTM I would use a STP even if u use astall no one will know are trans if u stand to pee lol . Sitting it sounds different lol u can get a cheap STP for 50.00 that is a packer too . In the locker room u can go to a stall to change .

I can cope with the toilets but changing rooms is a big problem. I do a lot of sport and travel all over, some places only have gendered changing rooms which is a problem when I’m pre everything.

i guess find an online group thing - i guess -w-“”

Online ones work :]

SAME 💀

I can painfully relate😵

OMG sameeee!!! I live in a very homophobic country

@@bamboocafe9413 oof you forgot 'PARK JIMIN'😅

Waffle _ Yeah I get what you mean, but in my experience the skin colour ones are way more noticeable. I work in a pretty hypermasculine field and am cis passing, it's always awkward when people notice the straps or top of the chest hem under my uniform when it's a skin tone one; but no one thinks twice when it's black or grey. I wear full tanks so it doesn't look like I'm wearing a sports bra, even under t-shirts or business shirts. Nude colours will still be noticeable and leave lines, but at least if it's a full tank it won't look like a bra. Grey or white works fine too, just skin colours make it obvious it's 'not supposed to be seen'. You can still see them, white blends better under white shirts than nude colours, and in general t-shirts + binders aren't the greatest mix. Maybe a dark shirt, white is unfortunately a bad option if you want to hide a binder.

Alex Quottrup Pullover sweatshirts that are a size too big are also amazing!

I wear over sized hoodies and baggy shirts 👍 go team

Morgan Exists on my gosh, I relate with you so much. My situation is the same as yours. It gets better, don't worry. I support you. Dont give up hope

Morgan Exists yea same my parents won't use male pronounce nor my preferred name

Morgan Exists do it secretly like I did.

My parents are the same but kinda worse. My parents can buy me all the men's clothes in the world but they refuse to call me by my preferred name or cut my hair.

same man

Ikr :') I relate a lot

Kal Morgan do u know if u have to be 18 to go private? I'm almost 16 and my parents are supportive so they could sign whatever forms there are. But I'm not sure if I have to be 18

i’m just commenting to see what u say to dog lover 12

I had my referral to GIC June 2016 and I am currently still awaiting my first appointment; they said it will be sometimes in 2018! I am currently looking at potentially starting a shared care agreement because the wait is killing me.

Doglover12 ik it's a late reply but you can start hormones from 16 with parental consent at private clinics!

@@Doglover-gh9ut this is super late but GenderGP allows you to start hormones under 18 with parental consent

Julian G that'd be a nightmare

New way for a trans guy (pre bottom) to b*st a n*t

That's a great way of thinking about it. (I'm FtM, but I'm not out on this school related account)

YESSSS!!!

Is this the music theatre section of this video? If the answer is yes I'm finally satisfied

Hell Yeah!

oakley dokley good luck!

oakley dokley Comment back on how it goes! Wish you the best, friend!

good luck buddy

oakley dokley I’m a bit late but I hope it went well!

he took it well and was ok with it

omg yessss

That's how I framed it even before I realized I was some flavour of trans!! It not only makes me feel less dysphoric, but also makes it somewhat easier to deal with that entire frustrating ordeal.

I call mine “early death” Edit: period = Early death

wait...is it not a werewolf thing? people who menstruate have a monthly ritual to pray to almighty blood gods.

I call it “shark week.” Still awesome

Angel Chaplin So i am not only one? Great. 😊

Oh yeah same!

That's how it started for me, haha. Now I have a trans flag embroidered on my bag and call myself a dude.

Same here

Saaaaammmeee

Morgan Elliott I’m not sure about Planned Parenthood, bc I went somewhere else, but I legit started the day of my appointment at my clinic, so they’re definitely streamlining things as much as possible

+Morgan Elliott In Canada, you have to be 16 to take T so I still have 26 months to wait to even get HRT rolling.

I wish I lived in literally any other state, West Virginia has nothing

@@SuperSilli15 I KNOW I LIVE IN WV AND THERES NOTHING FOR HRT

Is there an age limit to start T in the US?

Super Fanboy Alert physicals are horrible :/

Nonya Beezwax yoooo I had that happen to me to once when I started to transition and it made me so happy about myself

why is your teacher yelling at you for walking with people?

@@galaxychill9578 teacher's afraid of cooties obvs

Nexus Akayuki I guess it's still the same, tell the people they are misgendering you. Maybe wear it in a bun or something like that. I never had that problem, because I already had short hair when "I was still a girl".

Some men have long hair. I guess you'd look at typical hair styles they use - it tends to be the basic ponytail or man bun, they don't seems to use complicated braids and stuff much. A man with long hair is generally assumed to be secure in his masculinity. If your face, figure, and clothes pass, your hair shouldn't be a problem.

If you’ve got other things like masculine clothing/binder etc I think it works. Lots of men like having long hair too! Facial hair (minoxidil hair growth cream can help with it) is a good way of passing too

Selkie there r ones that open side ways, hook to close up just like bra...

To me, I feel the easiest way to wear it, is to make sure my skin is completely dry, and I wear it slightly rolled up, and pull it over my head. Aft it’s reaches a level that’s...on top of my chest, I roll it back down!

I remember stuck halfway in the bathroom in the beginning.... I always go head first, and it will become a mess that all rolled together. Then I search for the bottom part of the binder (require certain level flexibility of course), pull the side out bit by bit, in the end you basically pull the binder out. Save as taking it out, I rolled it bit by bit. Once I get my head out, it just fall off.

tbh Ive got a hell of a lot more flexible and stronger just from putting on and taking off a binder daily

Same here! Although I don't tend to really get stuck with the over the head method (possibly because I have had a tendency to wear sports bras that maybe was a bit too tight in order to manage dysphoria both before and after realising that that's what it was)

Thank you :) You're definitely not alone!

Quiet Ky Hey there! It’s been a little while. Did you find out yet? How’s it going?

I've been questioning too! It's not easy to find this stuff out, but if there are any tips you have, could you post them?

Maxon Messer you shouldn't wear a binder for more than 8 hours a day. Please stay safe. 😀

Oof. I made mine myself and the way Ik I'm definitely dysphoric is, that I've been wearing it non stop for six days now. It doesn't hurt. I mean non stop. I sleep in it and try not to shower because I hate it. I'm filthy but I can't get myself to undress on my own and even less when there's people around. FML

@@somekindofperson9766 hey dude, I totally get what you feel like, but PLEASE take a break. Even if you don't feel it, a binder can deform your ribs and will make top surgery either ridiculously difficult or in bad cases impossible. ESPECIALLY with self-made ones. For showering, I suggest showering in the dark, so you don't have to see your body, and making it a race (i.e. how fast can I possibly shower) because you'll think about something else. Take care dude and stay safe!

@@somekindofperson9766 You could try and wear a baggy t-shirt or something when showering so you don't have to look at your body. It will impede showering a bit, but at least you don't see yoursef, if that makes you feel bad. And please, take it off while you sleep. It's so important. It's just that, a binder squeezes your chest together, and it's a little bit harder to breathe in it than without, that's why it is so important to take it off after 8 hours. If you sleep in it, you could (in the worst case) pass out from a lack of oxygen and now one would notice. You could really hurt yourself. I know it's hard, but please, take care of your body. You do no one a favour if you don't. Things are going to get better. Lots of love ❤️

oh jeez i read "now im craving jamie"

It's from Primark! :D

Jammidodger are they in a small size? Its a hella cool jumper

Oh, I'm sorry. That sounds rough

I had a similar situation, my grandma said: do you think flattening your chest makes you look like a dude? I'm sorry to disappoint you but it doesn't, you still look like a girl Me passing in public almost every time: 😐

Yeah, my parents aren’t forcing girly things, but they’re regularly telling me how much men suck and why I shouldn’t be one. Like, do they think I want to be trans?

oh. my. gosh, i am so sorry that is happening to you. you deserve respect for your real identity. and i’m sorry you aren’t getting it.

Liam Voncannon Same!

Should last up to ten years! 💪

Liam Voncannon for me it hurts to put anything up there...

Hey, thank you, I'm so glad my videos could help you :)

Seth Ftm i hope you feel loads better soon xx

Muffintops hi friend what is afab?

Sutan Does Assigned Female at Birth

a fabulous

maybe you're non-binary?

Me: *cries in Australian*

The pill and patch can also stop periods if you don't want to do an IUD for whatever reason

I thought I was a lesbian at first too. Turns out I'm a bisexual guy. I just couldn't even imagine being with a guy as a girl because it would make me feel more feminine.

omg go for it bro you deserve it

GOOD LUCK BRK

How did it go?

8 hours per day is the timeframe that most people use. I’d recommend taking days off if you can, like weekends or just whenever you can bear to. The timeframe can change from person to person though. My partner has asthma and a slightly fucked up back, so they can only wear theirs for about 4-6 hours at a time and they don’t wear it very often or else they have a hard time breathing. If I wear mine for too many days in a row, my sternum and ribs start to ache. Tldr; 8 hours/day, but pay attention to what your body says because it’ll tell you if you start to fuck it up.

Kleineganz Saaaame. I’m actually kinda thin, and was blessed with a not that curvy body, and when i tried to put on my binder for the first time i ripped it a little bit because it’s just awkward stepping into it.

For larger bodies, like mine, I used a back brace with a Velcro closing. Just wrap it around to fit. It removed easily as well.

Tristan Bartholdi I felt like that too. I didn't know how to ask for that stuff. I would start by just bringing up the conversation of t. Don't say you want t at first just mention that t is an option. For binders you sorta have to toughen up and just ask. Say your chest makes you uncomfortable and that a binder will make you more comfortable. Definitely don't mention the health risks. I would definitely ask about binders before you ask about t and top surgery. Baby steps are still steps. What I told myself is i came out I can be brave enough to bring up these kinds of conversations.

Doglover12 yeah i was definitely going to mention the binder first, but she already knows some of the health risks, so i have to try to convince her that it's worth it. and she also knows about T, i just haven't told her that i wanted it. and im only 15 so i wasn't planning on having top surgery for a while but i'd like the other two to happen soonish. but thanks for replying, it helps knowing im not alone :)

Waffle _ i just turned 15 too, and i have money, i just have to get the binder delivered to my mom's house so my dad doesn't see it. plus i just want to 100% know if she would support it

You're welcome :) So glad they could help, and all the best with starting hormones! :D

If you are under 25, go to ungdomsmottagningen.

My teachers have been saying I should contact BUP(they’re in Norway too) but my parents have to know first so I’ve been trying to avoid it. But it really is good! My friend talks to them once a month because of personal reasons and she’s getting better. I recommend it to others in Norway and Sweden if you aren’t too scared to talk to your parents about it!

Love that song.
