dude. if i was born without arms and then got arms i would never shut up about it. //an odd metaphor but you get it//

I'm a cis male, and I was laughing my ass off. Crossing your legs and crushing it is why manspreading is a thing. It is so funny to hear you describe all the things that cis boys have just dealt with. Good Luck and thanks for the laughs.

all the cis dudes saying welcome to the club is making my heart melt

All the cis males being sweet in the comments is amazing ☺️

Haha! I can crazy relate to the "talking about it too much" part. I had vaginoplasty 5 months ago and it seems that I've been talking about my vagina non-stop for the past 5 months.

Iam Cis Male and hearing this reminds me growing up with my genitalia it’s hard glad your more comfortable in your body you are perfect keep slaying

You're adorable.

I'm a cis guy, I don't know if you have or will developed this but I, and other guys, have a sixth sense of things about to hit our genitals. I remember getting hit in the balls more often as a kid but I think some time around puberty I developed ninja-like reflexes for avoid testicular injury. Like a spider sense but only for my crotch. I'm interested if this is genetic or learned so maybe you'll develop that sense and that would be pretty cool!

“Frankenweenie” I’m dying 😂😂.

You have transitioned so well that I can't even imagine you as feminine. I'm so happy that you're no longer feeling dysphoric about your body, that's so important :D

As a cis female, this is really interesting to watch, because..well, I don't think any cis guy could explain so well what it's like to live with a penis xD and it's interesting to find out about the small everyday struggles! I feel I can understand men a little better now! Thanks for sharing!;D

Dont ever shut up...ur helping so many people whether trans or not. Ur voice speaks for many, many who r afraid to ask. And gives answers to those who don't understand. Keep preaching MISTER! LOL. LOVE U.

“Please don’t call me gross.” Aww. Jamie, all humans are kind of gross. It’s just part of being human. No shame. 😝

no please make more bottom surgery videos! no one on youtube really talks about it and it's super helpful information

Welcome to the dingus club. Have fun with your dingus!

"it moves" ok this got me laughing

Yes. The struggle to sit down is real 😂😂 (Yes I'm trans) My boyfriend tends to just tease me always saying "Aw why don't you sit down Connor??" 😂😂😂

Running is literally the worse like it goes EVERYWHERE

"The way I sit has changed" - manspreading DOES come from something.

"Hitting yourself in the junk" that's an instinct born men develop after years and years, you'll get it.

This old lady thinks you are wonderful and you can talk about your Mr Happy as much as you want :) I find your videos very informative

I was born and male and identify as a male. I could only imagine how challenging things would have been for you. Congrats on now being able to identify yourself as a man and for getting the surgery. On the flip side, your video made me laugh as you listed all those male issues. Not that I've been in your position, but I'm fairly sure you will get used to having a ding dong and a tackle box, just give it some time, I'm sure it will start to feel natural.

I feel like every mother of a male child should watch this, just to learn about what it's like to be a person with a penis, whether cis or trans. This actually gave me insights to male behaviour (like manspreading) that I had no real understanding of before. Thanks!

My bro walled in then said Welcome to the club bro To the tv And walked out ???

Love you videos jamie !! I'm a cis female but still find your videos very interesting and informative. I'm also British yay x x x x

I stopped watching the try guys for this. No regrets, this is very educational and I'm excited for bottom surgery

I'm 33 cis male, and I still do some of those things. Heeling myself or sitting on it especially. And though this is the first time I've ever seen one of your videos, I am very glad to hear you've gotten comfortable after the surgery. No one should hate anything about themselves like that.

As a cis man, above all other things I have to say: Thank you very much for this enlightening video, and welcome to the club. I'm just guessing here because I don't remember my first three years on earth, but I'm pretty sure that what you have lived through since your surgery is basically what male babys feel; with the difference being that you as an adult person are more aware of these things, and you have the comparison to a life without it. Other things, like the uncomfy underwear, sitting positions etc. are well known to all men. Growing up with a penis definitely helps in some cases, like accidentally hitting one's crown jewels, but in other cases it's just awkward to all of us. I had some good laughs when you talked about stuff that's so familiar to me I wouldn't even considered talking about it. Hope some women watch this, might lead to a better understanding of some of our disturbing attitudes.

You literally got new genitals constructed, it's not in any way odd that you have a need to talk about it! I love your brand of being this really shy and innocent person and at the same time just always talking about your penis XD

I'm glad this is a normal thing in the community. I used to talk about my vaginoplasty all the time. And now that I'm comfortable with myself I make a lot of peen jokes and my partner keeps telling me that no longer applies to me. Love it.

As several others have already said, welcome to the club, dude! They're strange and wonderful things to have. I can relate a little bit, I think, as I remember puberty when mine and its accoutrements decided they wanted to grow about 4-5x bigger. There was very rapidly much more to manage and it was the little things you mentioned. Sitting became more of a controlled descent. Walking revealed independent motion going on. More mass meant more heat which meant more sweat. Tighter underwear becomes restrictive and that can cause an anxious near-panic until you adjust. It has a mind of its own and can go exploring (within limits). Wait till you find your little guy poking out your boxers (if you ever wear them). They're escape artists. Take care of your little guy and enjoy your time together. I think you'll find you have a lot in common. And hopefully you never learn what it feels like to unexpectedly dip your balls in toilet water.

Alternate title for vid- "Manspreading: The Reason".

I'm a trans woman who hasn't transitioned so when you said "my adorable penis" I was like "hmm can't relate"😂

This hair color is awesome.

YOU'RE JUST SO CUTE PLS STOP

The amount of love and support (especially from Cis men) is astonishing and I am beyond happy for you! I really love your videos, you are always kindly educating people about things and generally seem very patient. I wish you best of luck in your life

I'm not trans and I don't think I actually know someone who is but I love watching your videos. It's very educational. Thank you for openly talking about it and sharing all this with us :) (is "educational" a word ? I'm not sure anymore. I'm not english, sorry ^^)

Cis female from the US again. Don't think I mentioned it before but I am a nurse and find your videos very educational. It helps me broaden my knowledge of trans issues. I've been doing a lot of additional research on metoidioplasty. Considering ALL you went through, I am surprised that you didn't go for lengthening the urethra. They can also use the labia minora tissue instead of buccal tissue to form the longer urethra. There is a very low incidence of complications from this and are repaired quite easily if they do occur. Just saying you were so sore "down there" I doubt you would have been in any more pain and you had a catheter in place anyway. Are you ever going to consider a hystero-oophorectomy in the future? I have read that long term use of testosterone can lead to uterine prolapse. Also by removing the ovaries the level of testosterone can be reduced. Enjoy your new penis! Be proud and talk about it. You are getting used to a new body part. Think about how when a baby boy discovers his penis for the first time he is very curious about it and regularly checks to see if it is still there. I am not saying you are infantile, by any means, but as a mother if two men and a woman I am very used to a male's love of his penis, as he should be, through all stages of growth. Oh yes, some of the numbness will fade after time. I had three c-sections in 4 years all using the same incision line and was incredibly numb in the general area for several years. Peripheral nerves can and do regenerate.

So happy for you, love your openness and straightforwardness!

It's great how open you are. Education is so important. Thank you for your candor.

Wooo penis! Oh we're gonna be mature... Woops

I really appreciate your honesty about all your surgeries and how it's affected you. I've never thought about how it would actually feel to have a penis or be without breasts so this video has really given me an appreciation for all bodies. I quite enjoy these videos and you! Thank you for being so open when you don't have to be. ❤️

This video just popped up in my suggestions but even though im a "cis female", i actually always wanted to know how others who have had this surgery feel about it and the whole process, because i feel like it must be pretty hard to get used to the change. I really enjoyed your video and you seem like such a genuine friendly person, im so glad that you are happy and that you shared this story. I never even thought about half of these things since i dont have a p3nis, but this was so interesting to hear. So thank you for sharing this with us :)

I'm a cis guy who had surgery as a 13-year-old to correct testicular torsion, and a circumcision at 20, so, can relate to uncomfortable recoveries and weird stiches/swelling! Your leg crossing etc. experiences sound typical. Thank you for sharing your experiences :)

I just got top surgery, and I can’t stop talking about it 😊 so I definitely understand what you mean with the new found peace with yourself

All this reminded me of was one of my trans male friends back in high school. He started his transition when I was a senior, so as I went through the year with him he would always come to me being all excited about the next step (binders, hormones, etc.) because even though it was annoying to him, it was a step closer to being who he was. My favorite was the day after he ordered his packer and he just ran up to me yelling "Rebecca look at my penis oh my god It's coming. Becca my penis is coming." Which was admittedly kind of funny to hear. Proud of him though, he's such a sweet soul.

Your honesty is helping lots of people, keep it up!!!

Thanks for sharing it helps those of us that don't know about stuff like this so don't stop

Thank You for the info Jamie!! It's actually nice to hear stuff before & after, that way you know what to expect!!! Much Love!!

"i'm going to try and be my most mature throughout" *laughs a bit*

your transition was so successful!! you look amazing

This video randomly showed up in my feed, you rock dude. Props to you for being so open about it! Wish you all the best on your journey with your newfound peen

This is so helpful, I'm at the beginning of my transition and I'm planning to fully transition and I can't wait. Thanks for making this video dude! Trans to trans :)

You’re so likable 😊

I love the way you put your experiences, please keep positive! You are amazing!

I love how the basic idea of this video is "Dicks get in the way". xD it's a normal thing bro, welcome to the penis club. Here's a question from a cis guy with no transgender friends to ask IRL... do you handle yours all the time? Because I handle my junk constantly, without realizing it. Haha. Anyways, ignore the question if it's asking TMI. Subbed, I look forward to the next video!

Thanks for telling us about your *pEEner* In all seriousness, though, I appreciate these videos. They're super informative and make me less nervous and more excited about the future. I wish you and Shaaba the best!!

I love getting the ad for gender confirmation surgery before your videos

So happy that you feel totally complete in your body. I remember following you on tumblr ages ago - it's nice to see your journey come to this. Sending you lots of love xx

Watching you for the first time and I’m in love! You’re just so open about things, and super sweet! I like your sense of humor 😭💕

Its very refreshing to see some one so happy :) even when u complain you look happy :) Cheers man 👊🏼

I haven't had any surgeries yet, just a tiny bit of bottom growth from T (almost 5 months now) and I'm experiencing some of what you're talking about already - definitely the feeling of squishing things that weren't there to be squished before. It's weird but also kind of awesome.

Oh your so adorable, I'm so glad everything is working out for you, nice to see you so happy.

This is your first video I see and you really see the happiness and confidence you have. Do not know the way you went but you seem to be in a good place.

8 minutes of talking about squished peen 👌

I love that your sharing how comfortable you are with the discomfort of your penis. And it's so informative to understand how my boyfriend feels all the time. Thanks for the awkward but refreshing lesson!

Aw you are so adorable! I am so happy for you that everything went well and you are happy xP

I genuinely wanted to know about this. Thank you for clearing the fuzz around this topic, and letting us know about what you went through. It is very informative!

At first i thought you were a gender reassigning surgeon, not someone who had gone under it. I hope its not offensive, but i really never would have known you were transgender. Even after you said you were i was a bit confused. Your voice sounds great and your a very attractive man! Im glad your feeling alot better about things and your getting used to everything after!

I absolutely love the way you talk about the process of sitting down at around 5:45 😂 I don‘t think I have ever heard anyone phrase it like that and it makes my heart go whoooosh for you 🥰

Thank you for sharing your experience and educating many of us! I really appreciate it. Talk as much as you want, we'll listen

Found you in my recommended, this is the first video I’ve watched of yours. This was incredibly interesting and informative! Definitely things I’d never think about.

As a straight woman I found this video fascinating! The fact that you can be so candid about something that is quiet awkward & uncomfortable is fantastic!

This is the first video I have ever seen of you and I already love you 😂😘

Honestly I'm glad you're talking about it so much because it's something that's mostly just in the dark for a lot of folks since I guess people are embarrassed or whatever. So thank you. I've learned more from you than literally anywhere else

This video popped up and as a straight female I just clicked on it outta pure curiosity.. My comment tho is as follows: dude your chair is f'in awesome! Where u get it? Congrats on ur new worm btw.

Now this transition, is phenomenal. This gives me so much hope for my trans partner and him becoming the best man he could be; seeing how well your transition went puts a lot of my fears of something going wrong for him out.

Number 6 was hilarious

Thank you so much for being so open about this stuff, even though it’s awkward. It’s interesting!!

You are amazing, and I'm glad you are happy! I agree with your comments, it can be uncomfortable! I remember all the items you are discussing when I was a teenager. I'm so happy for you and support you in all ways! We are all human and all deserve to have a happy and enjoyable life! Congrats on all of your progress! You are an inspiration, even to me, a cis male person! :) Have a great day!

I'm a FTM as well and this video actually has helped me understand what someone like me as gone through to get bottom surgery. Thank you so much for easing some of my fears about it

Great series! I've been waffling about getting lower surgery because I'm afraid of the pain. I see my doctor in a few days and I'm going to talk about it with him. I want it, but its scary! Top surgery wasn't scary at all since I'd had a breast reduction before, but this is totally new, and I'm working so I have to take a lot of time off as well. Thanks again for this great series!

Thanks for the video jam! It’s super great, I’ve been enlightened and entertained lol you’re cool

There are things in here that I NEVER would have thought of, thank you for making this video! I just had top surgery revision done (almost 2 weeks post op), have been considering metoidioplasty, but my hang up is my body is SO sensitive that I can't have anything artificial put back on or implants. I also really do like my growth down there, and have been enjoying things FINALLY not hurting after my hysto, and been debating being comfortable where I'm at in transition for right now. I have to say, I LOVE your words for things like "bits" "squidgy" and Shaaba's "wibbly bits" and the... slang??? I don't know how to describe it, but it's so fun to hear you talk in general as well! Thank you again, this is very informative and helps me decide where I want to go next in my journey! *INTERNET HUGS TO BOTH OF YOU AND YOUR CAT!!*

Everytime I watch your videos I get ridiculously jealous of you and how far you are in your transition and yet I'm constantly doubting myself. :-/ ... Well, anyway, I love your videos they're helping me a lot.

I just found your channel and I have to say, you look AMAZING. Congratulations on your surgery! Wishing you every happiness! :D

this is exactly the kind of info i needed, thank you

I really appreciate you being open about this stuff

Tmi? I'll take it! Thanks for sharing and congratulations xxx

ugh love your hair and glasses. amazing

This is my first video of yours, you're really handsome! I appreciate your personality! Thank you for the education, and the laughter! I'll be watching your videos all night!

Wait He's trans His face/body gives me (trans*) hope

You're still in the process of healing...give time !!! dont use tight underwear until you feel confortable with ...crossing legs, feeling the "thing" when driving, it moves...thats a good sign (lol) : well... WELCOME TO MENS WORLD...you are a very BRAVE dude !!

You fucking do the damn thing! You rock! Most don't make the leap because of fear and uncertainty, but you make a difference. thank you for sharing your experience so others can make a decision.

youre so damn wonderful and i love your comic collection! This was so great!

Fascinating to hear your perspective! As a cisgender male, I can see how I've adapted over decades and I'm sure you've heard it before, but experimenting with a wide range of underwear choices is NOT frivolous. I find that I like a softer-fabric version of some of the anatomical pouch-type briefs and boxers from Andrew Christian (and many others) keeps my equipment safely but not restrictively secured. I'm fond of Andrew Christian's "Almost Naked" line, favoring a stretchy all-cotton fabric to their many space-age, sleeker fabrics. And it makes total sense that having external genitalia for the first time in your life is going to present all kinds of inconveniences just for the daily unfamiliarity of its presence. I'd encourage you to not take it for granted, to recognize that it's (now) a part of you-your body-and that it can be damaged just like any other part of you. I'm interested in hearing about the financial part of the journey. A few years ago, I was on a discussion panel with a trans guy and he was very clear that, at the time, bottom surgery was "incredibly expensive and a lot to pay for something that doesn't work." Without asking you about the functionality of your penis, I'm specifically curious about how money played into the decision to get it, if you did get insurance coverage of any kind and if the expense initially dissuaded you from taking this step. Thank you for sharing your story!

Congratulations. You are learning how to handle something that comes naturally to cis guys. It's all part of growing up for boys - what to do with your penis. The most important advice is that if you go without underpants, PLEASE be aware of the zipper.

Thank you for your bravery and sharing your journey

Thank you so much for making this video ❤️

Congrats to your new body image and confidence. I‘m glad to hear that you are happy now. The irritating stuff will take much time to feel normal. Body and brain have to fix together. It‘s a process of learning subconsciously... 😉 - I speak from experience. By the way: I’m refreshing my english by watching your and Shaaba’s video‘s 😆. You both are so gorgeous- thank you for sharing! Many greetings from germany, Magnus
