6:23 THERES A TAMAKI PIN DHDGDHSHSHAAAHHHH I LOVE OHSHC

This is so cool and inspirational! I can't wait to get top surgery too, once I'm old enough!

i didn't know pegging was a term used only by women i thought it was just another word for fcking 😭

YAYYY NEW UPLOAD

Dang I feel like I’m in english again

If you stop bleeding completely, you’re going to have severe cramps because you’re going through an atrophy and that can cause your system to become septic if because of the atrophy you get infected with bacteria and it is trapped so if you stop bleeding, you may need estrogen down there in cream form

2:20 i actually found you from a my chemical romance album analysis (revenge i think) so yeah, vastly different video

I don't know about the whole thing with you telling people that transitioning will make them feel so much better and solve all their problems. Dont tell kids to transition as soon as possible. These things take time and feelings and identity change a lot during the process of growing up and in different stages of life. You have to be really sure before undergoing transition.

i’m swimming i’m swimming so hard and my gp/ the nhs is some torpedo or something trying to drown me but i will make it 💪💪

8:15 Oliver or Ollie for nickname, but not legally yet

Thanks for making this, so many people today will listen to anybody but an actual trans person on this topic.

I really do feel like people who were rubbed up the wrong way by the “female experience” comment are just pre transition and mad. I would of totally reacted the same a couple years ago. I really think a huge part of transitioning is accepting and learning to love your biological sex.

Your chest looks incredible! It's weird how genetics are I used so much scar treatments, laser scar reduction and medical tattooing and the medical tattooing has been working more than anything but you didn't even have to add anything to make it fade 🤯 Ezra Michael had tattooed a black line to make his scars prominent permanently would you do that? Also the discoloration under your nipples happened to me but mine was very large and was very dark and I couldn't get rid of it without tattooing it over

I have my first GHC appointment on Tuesday and this has just made me so much more excited (I mean I was already excited but MORE) and confident in my identity and that this path is right for me. Like you said, the best thing for trans people is being yourself and transitioning!! Thanks for this perspective Theo :D

i watched this channel a lot when i was younger. it helped me figure out my identity and recently i have been considering detransitioning. when i saw this notification i realized thats a dumbass idea. thanks theo!!

Transitioning does feel good especially feeling less dissociated with my body but a thing difficult is not having gender affirmation surgeries and not having it covered and i don't believe ill ever be able to see 50k+ in my lifetime 😑

thank you so much for this video. i am trans and i have been looking into t but i am still pretty young and my parents are really worried about me regretting it in the future. but watching this video has really helped me be more confident in wanting to do this :3

About the aging on testosterone thing, that's not exactly how it works. The reason cis men get x change at x time is because of how their body releases testosterone. So for a trans man age isn't really a variable since we're fully in control of how much T is in our body. Unless you're way old or so young you havent gone trough estrogen puberty yet, T will do the same thing regardless of age.

where's the Iceland video? did u kill that poor sweet girl in the volcano?

Trans men are not women

you are my favorite queer youtuber theo genuinely thank you i look forward to every upload

For the people who felt awkward about the “female experience” comment, I totally get it, but I think he was talking more in a general sense about being RAISED in a body with societal expectations. Not that we’re the same as butch lesbians and queer women. More like we might have some experiences in common. :)

It's tempting but... fine. I won't be a truscum.

The "being frm is a female experience" bugs me so much, I just want to be an actual dude not a trans man or a butch lesbian

8:57 WHAT- BRO KILLS CHILDREN

I cant believe its been 3 years, I just finally started T back in october and I was surprised to see so much change already. I already feel more confident and its just like damn well I am going to lose my mind in the best way possible with time LOL I started watching about just right before the beginning of Theo starting T and its just crazy that were here already, definitely got much further than I expected, like seriously Also the thumbs thing made me die so hard LMAO 😭

As a 15 year old trans guy the "was it worth it" section hit me so hard, I feel like crying. I want to feel euphoric, I want to feel okay, I want to stop feeling so miserable and dysphoric all the time. I don't want to have to wait years until I can even really start my transition. It's frustrating, but I know it will be worth it. I know eventually I'll feel okay, and eventually I'll be glad that I didn't drown in that sea or keep the tv unplugged. This give me so much hope, but at the same time it's just so difficult to wait.

i love the idea of being masculine but not in a man way. that really resonates with me and i appreciate you unpacking that idea. i have always been like nonbinary but prefer to be percieved as a man, but i think i just prefer to be percieved as masculine. im so glad u are happy :]

this video made me violently sob

thank you so much for your videos the ship allegory really helped me see that thank you (:

I've debated with many liberals online who've claimed that no young females would ever transition because it's a "cool" thing to do. Thank you for proving them wrong. I need to show them this video.

im mtf trans but the part about allowing yourself to be masculine still resonated with me, because for a while i was trying to be "feminine". Buying skirts and feminine clothes, and trying to avoid wearing darker colors or jeans, but i realized that i actually like being masculine. i love wearing cool flannel jackets and jeans and wearing dark colors. i like the way my voice sounds, despite having done zero voice training. ive definitely adjusted it subconsciously to have a more feminine quality but its subtle. but yeah, i really fw masc women and masc guys who dont have toxic masculinity, who still let themselves be emotional or cute or silly and have fun!

What you said about needing to go with the urge to transition really resonates with me. I was in full-on psychological denial between ages 16 - 22, to the point where I couldn't consciously consider being trans but the signs pointing me in that direction came in my dreams at night. After I realised what the dreams meant, I woke up to the reality of being trans, and I chose to transition and live as a man. It was hard, it was scary, but it's like I knew I had to or die dissatisfied. I'm out and 2 months on T now, got a long way ahead still. I'm proud of making that decision.

your voice has changed

I really appreciate your thoughts on masculinity. It’s rare to hear people express such complicated relationships to gender, femininity and masculinity. I’m a trans guy who’s just shy of 3 months on T. I feel like my relationship with femininity and masculinity are probably going to shift around as I get further along in my transition. I know I’ve always felt masculine as a ‘girl’, but seeing myself as a guy has made me more comfortable expressing femininely (in a gay guy way). But I’m feeling like that might not stick all the way, just like your femboy phase. Idk. It’s a journey, and I’m happy to end up wherever I end up! Also, thank you for the little transition pep talk. I still have doubts about top surgery sometimes, even though I know it will make me so happy. I’m just really scared of surgery itself. But I know I have to / want to do this for myself. It’s choosing my own happiness over what society says, an act of kindness towards myself. Thanks for the video! Looking forward to more from you <3

Man I am swimming so hard. I want to reach the better life .and now I'm just watching your video and it's spaier me so much

D rock trans man here on TH-cam made a video 10 years ago but Theo's video means that what was said in D rock trans mans video still stands today as both videos have the same points

Genderpulp

Lmao no Theo cis ding doings are not wet 😂😂 no matter how much we wish they were. PSA ALWAYS USE LUBE unless it smells bad bc its old and expired (this happened to me recently and its a total mood ruiener)

(Also i am so happy to see ftm and butch in the same sentence bc like OH ME! yay! that's why i clicked lol) 🏳️‍🌈💖

being a trans male is not a female experience and you should know better than to say shit like that. we aren't women and a lot of us didn't even experience girlhood, womanhood, etc. we're just men. a lot of us just transition and go on to live our lives as men. even pre everything we're still men. it's cool to have your own experience but it's not cool to label us all as being under the "female experience" because you're essentially just saying we're all women at our core because of how we were born/raised which is pretty fucked up

Oh shit you're the minoxidil guy i watched 3 years ago and then forgot about! Lol so much happened to me since watching that video. Like wow life is cool and beautiful but also most of the things that happened to me were kinda bad but also a lot of good things that i had to put a lot of work in to achieve and I'm glad I'm still here to watch this video and see how its all been.

I just did my first shot today!! Yay🏳️‍🌈 :3

I'm glad you're happy, but as a trans guy - the "being a trans man is a female experience" made really dysphoric. bro, I feel like shit. the stuff you say implies that all transmasc people/trans men are masc girl, but that's not true for all of us. not for me, not for any of my transmasc friends. I am a guy, a straight guy, not a butch lesbian.

Please stop calling being a trans man a female experience.

i can't quite explain it but this video made me feel so emotional... it's like a warm hug. life has been sucking so much. i'm pre- medical transition & hate being trans sometimes. this video made me feel like it's worth the wait. thank you for giving me hope <3

no but the ‘being a trans man is a female experience’ gives me a massive ick. you know most of us won’t relate to that so why speak for everyone?

never lose your energy. you are so free

i totally understand what u mean with feeling like u dont need anything else once you have the best version of yourself that youve always wanted. like thats so real. been thinking about coming out to my transphobic dad & i was worried that he might refuse to pay for my college, but then i was like, well thats fine. because i would finally get to meet myself. isnt it crazy that transition can make us so happy that we would sacrifice things that once seemed important? but thats the thing about us trans ppl that transphobes dont understand. transition is unbelievably important; its everything. its the most real thing some of us will ever do. it is an act of self love. its a gift to ourselves; its done for ourselves. its honesty. also the "you have to transition" point is so real. like i know youre right, i know its true that it would be totally worth it. like i do have fears about what people would think but the fact is that transitioning is something we just cant pass up.

i think the analogy of swimming from the crashing ship and the need to cross the water is going to go right into my brain alongside the “if you’re trans you need to live” tweet and power me through the rest of my life
