as a guy who switched schools (and moved cities) and went stealth, i can confirm it is a god tier experience. something i’d like to say is that (if it’s an option) i would recommend doing PE online. it’s annoying doing it outside of class but you avoid all the changing room stuff. definitely do not do this unless at least one of your parents are on board though. one downside about this is that it is VERY hard to talk to anybody about being trans. it depends if you’re really gonna be stealth or if you’re gonna be relatively open about it but i’d advise being careful.

Alright so my school counselor says she only tells parents if u are a danger to yourself or others, im debating telling her but i dont know what will happen

I’m a trans girl and don’t want to come out because i live in a “homophobic country” and my parents wouldn’t even look at my face ever again, and my friends too. I just came out to 5 of my friends that’s all.

I tried to come out to my parents but they just ignore what i say- i cant change my name but i have a group of rlly supportive friends which is nice

im a closeted trans man and this is helping a lot. i want to let my councilor know since I trust her and she isn’t the type of adult to say “ur too young for that!!”

idk why im watching this rn 😭

I’m lucky because I was already in the queer section of my school (found out sexuality years before finding out gender) so literally everyone that I actually cared about knowing was completely fine with it.

Im in yr 8 and i think im trans but not 100% sure but pretty close and want to start taking testosterone thingys cus i really dont wanna be short for the rest of my life but my parent (especially my dad) are really 'old fashioned' and i dont know what to dooooooo 😢

now i needa tutorial on how to come out to parents and what age is best to do it

Me, a cis person watching this video: 📄 ✍️

My girly and cis ass wtching this: hmm interesting

I have gender dysphoria and still figuring out ..its really confusing Hey ur really cool wanna be friends?(if u want ofc)

Mcr fan omg!!!

I'm not through with the video yet, idk why I even clicked, I'm agender (Masculine-leaning tho) and homeschooled.. Anyway, I just wanted to say how much of a dude you look like. Like, I just really really really think that you pass as a guy super well. Also you're really handsome (Not in a weird way, just a platonic compliment)

I came out in sixth form this year and it was the best decision ever! They changed my name without question and I use male toilets. (Im FtM) Only one of my parents knows so at home im closeted. Feel free to ask any questions! <3

glad to know the torture is universal across the country (im in college now it gets better :)) ((do NOT go to sixth form in that case it gets worse))

my fav song by him is Candle

OHH YOU ARE A CAVETOWN FAN ILY

i love johnnie more now

literally never coming out, im just gonna thug it til 18 🥶

I HAVE THAT EXACT SAME SHIRT I WORE TO SCHOOL YESTERDAY TO HELP ME FEEL MORE LITTLE GUY I think I'm trans anyway. Like 95% sure but I have a lot of complicated feelings towards it and idk what to do :[

BAHAH HELP I CLICKED ON THIS VIDEO NOT REALISING IT WAS YOU

Same grade as you. I recon the three biggest factors in passing are, hair, voice and binding. I only ever get clocked when I speak. It is possibly to voicetrain to make your voice deeper. I suggest trying to mimic a male family member close to your age.

I have school uniforms BUT they're basically vests and jackets that you put over your outfit. But they still found a way to gender them, they have yellow and blue stripes at the hem(like the neck) of the vest. And girls have the yellow stripe bigger, while boys have the blue stripe bigger. Luckily i have the boy vest because my brother gave it to me

I don't even know what to do in school when i come out cuz i live in a rly homophobic country, like its illegal to be lgbtq here 😭 A lot of the kids are homophobic and Im not even sure i would be allowed to change my name or pronouns. I guess time will tell 😞 Honestly, at this point I'm thinking of just transitioning over summer and not telling any one cuz i genuinely don't care anymore.

as a trans guy going into year 11 attending a public school in Australia, watching this made me realise how lucky I am. Even though I was the first kid to (ever) come out as trans at my school, I was really well accepted by teachers at my school, and my name and gender in the school system was changed almost immediately after a meeting with the principal, the wellbeing coordinator and my mum. We have a gender neutral uniform, mixed p.e, and we don't have to use changing rooms as there's no p.e uniform. I still get bullied, but I'm really grateful for how easy I have it compared to some others.

facts

“Are you a boy or a girl?” No.

I really think my life would be easier if i came out to my parents, and they support but idk if they will be ok with *me* being trans if that makes any sense, and im still in middle school and im scared its too early to come out. Any tips?

As a closeted transmasc who's homeschooled, I'm so thankful for it. Even though I'm still too scared to come out to my family, I couldn't imagine how scary it'd be to come out to my school. This video was helpful for me tho as I do go to a homeschool group thing which is kinda like school and if I ever decide to come out to them I know what to do :D btw you and your room are so pretty! I love the vibes man 😔

Great video!!! But please someone reply I need some help. I am starting a new school next year (in year 10) and I don’t know if I should go by my preferred name or birth name. (My preferred name is a masculine version of my birth name.) I have not told my parents or anyone yet but I would like to start a new school with my preferred name. So I’d have to come out to my parents and get them to change it with the school before we start. Ahhhhh. And I present feminine and I will probably get weird questions for having a masculine name. So basically, should I go by my preferred masculine name as a feminine person at my new school, or just deal with my old name for three years???

as another transmasc in year 10 i approve of this message

Tips to pass? My voice is rlly high and I can’t bind all that well.

Another (questioning?) trans guy named Alex here!! I'm in Canada so people here are overall mostly accepting. I have a pretty big queer friend group and attend the queer-straight-allience club too, but im very closeted. I was introduced to the group by one of my long time friends who (like majority of people) doesn't know, so obviously, they refer to me by she/her in the group. Many of my friends are trans or non-binary but they've been out in the friendgroup since I've known them and i have no idea how them coming out came to be. I feel like my friends would just accept me and adapt quickly, but still. I also have this stupid feeling where I feel like if i used the same pronouns/was the same gender as one of my friends, I'd be copying them (It's really non-sensical lmao). Honestly, I have no intentions of coming out to my parents (who often make transphobic jokes intentionally and such) , or teachers (since i feel they might tell my parents as you mentioned), but I'm thinking about my friends. The only person I'm really out to is my sister (there is a funny story of how she was constantly saying "you look like a divorced husband"/calling me a boy and it became a inside joke of ours to the point where I told her "dude, i dunno if this is a joke anymore." and she just accepted it and we laughed about it) and that's only because we are closer than most people on earth are capable of being. Tbh, I have no idea of if I'm asking for advice or just wanted to comment about the name similarities and got carried away, but nonetheless, thank you for the video! (I'm just now realizing i could have written my thesis statement instead of this, but here we are)

Amazing video 👍. I’m cis so I didn’t need any of these tips but I’m just really happy that someone is putting this information on the internet for people who need it. Also why is there a rat in the thumbnail? I’m cis so maybe I just don’t get it 🤷. Pls don’t answer if you don’t want to

I came out to my parents and a few close friends. The friends were totally okay with it because we have another transmasc in our friend group and hes like the "leader" of the friend group (he started it and stuff). Coming out to my mom was difficult because shes a hardcore Christian and is already iffy about me being bisexual. But i came out to my dad (who i don't have a good relationship with (#daddyissues)) BUT TO MY SURPRISE he ACCEPTED me and is getting me my first binder for Christmas!!!!! And he also cane out to me as pansexual!!!! Ive hinted at my new pronouns (He/they/it) to my other classmates and a few are catching on, but some of the more "popular" kids try to jump me for it and call me slurs... I wear only baggy clothes and layer up on sports bras as make-shift binders (until christmas yayayayayyaayayy) and most of the time, people who don't know me refer to me as "the girk who looks like a boy" or "the boy who looks like a girl" and i don't know how to feel about that cause... I mean i guess im passing.. Kinda...? Idk. Anyways, im in 8th grade (idk what "year" it would be because thats not how i calculate)

you kinda look like micheal cera in scott pilgrim vs the world. cool video also and awesome mcr shirt i have the same one :D

i asked the teacher to change my pronouns on the system and they emailed my parents for some reason?? im out and they're chill but why do that

I'm in freshman (9th grade, age 14-15) and am partially out. I've never used my chosen name and have done nothing more than drop hints to teachers. My friends all use he/him for me, and some teachers avoid pronouns. I'd say I'm only explicitly out to my PE teacher, and she allows me to use the guy's locker room as long as I don't get in any trouble. Luckily, most of the guys are super chill and don't care at all. Some are confused, and there are a couple who hate me. I just have too much social anxiety to officially come out this year, especially after teachers got used to my deadname. So, I'm planning to come out next year and arrange things over summer break and I'll have completely new teachers. My mom already knows but my siblings don't. I'm just in a very VERY awkward position. It's so weird. I don't really get dysphoric from my full deadname, but when it's shortened I hate it. But, I prefer Milo and Miles. I'm just too anxious to tell anyone.

I’ve only come out this year in year 11 and it’s still worth it

This video was really helpful! I have a question: if i try to transition in school, do you think my parents would find out? i tried coming out to them once already, but they didn't accept me for it :(
