The things you mentioned from the evil list are things that make you beautiful, you need to change nothing! Your face is the very image of femininity and your voice is wonderful.
IKR, also everyone seems to forget that cis women are a spectrum (as men are), some have more feminine features , some less. And no one is 100% female or male.
@@davidjacobs8558 beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and doesn't only correspond to the way an individual looks. some are beautiful on the outside, and ugly on the inside, while others are the opposite. you are what you project, for the most part. mae west was not a svelte, willowy woman, but was considered one of the sexiest women to ever grace the screen.
@@TheeeDanielR and they are the lucky ones. but that depends on the opinions of others, which is not how you should judge, or value yourself. to me, the opinion of others has little bearing on how i see myself. if you like me, that's good. if you don't, that's good too. i like me, and that's all that really matters. i've found that if you are someone that you like, others will like you too. the saddest thing is to hate yourself because of the words, and opinions of others. it's mind over matter. those who matter, won't mind, and those who mind, don't matter.
Daniella Rose i was born female and i transitioned to male about a year ago but before i transitioned i had way more testosterone in my system than i should have, i grew a small amount of facial hair and my period stopped even before i went on hormones
This video is honestly something I needed to hear SO bad. So many of the things you mentioned have been on my mind lately. No matter how often people tell you that you’re not alone, sometimes that feeling never goes away. It’s wonderful to finally SEE that you really aren’t alone in your personal trials! Thanks for this :)
Your voice has such a feminine register and I'm glad that you were blessed with it. I've been following your channel for a couple of years now and it's amazing how far you've come. You're a strong and beautiful woman and don't let anyone else tell you differently. Keep on keepin' on, and happy new year! :)
In my opinion, You look, sound and present yourself as 100% female. You don't need to change a thing. But What ever you do, It is your body to choose and no one else's opinion even matters. Thank you again for another great video! Your personality is a shinning light and you seem beyond your years in your thinking. I wish you much happiness going into the new year!
It’s true the first 18 months my dilation schedule had to come before everything. I even had to get special permission from my job for a while. But after like 2 years I did it less and after 4 years I almost never do it because I, sexually active with a guy. The mental transition is definitely a big deal too. That caught me off guard. Oh and the dating curve was rough, I made so many mistakes dating and even hanging out with guys. I gave them the wrong message hanging out with the guys. And friends became so scarce after I started passing. Some girls don’t want to be around you and some guys just want to hook up with you and not be friends. I know as far as friends go I really struggled with this balance for a while. Having some girlfriends has definitely been key for a while. Oh and side note for those looking into trans friendly careers health care. As a nurse no one cared as long as I could make the, feel better.
Hey Maya! You touched on so many questions a lot of us ask ourselves as transwomen during our early days of our transition adventure. Mainly for me, it is comparing myself to others. Hearing life stories of how others made it through, and things to expect and not to expect means lot to us who are just little sprouts in our journey to womanhood through HRT. Another thing I wish I knew before transitioning would be how difficult it would be to re-learn everything I know about being a woman (at least for me). So many things that were not second nature (and not my best skills) like applying makeup (well), fashion/dress sense, how to grow out hair past that 'awkward stage', and voice feminization. The costs involved with makeup, and building a new wardrobe, and permanent/semi-permanent hair removal costs. But with that being said, I do not regret any of it, except it took me so long to admit to myself who I am. Thanks for your videos, Maya! Please keep inspiring us! x x
Your video message is very positive and loving. I think we all need to be compassionate with ourselves and not let the superficiality of the world we live in take any kind of a foot hold in our lives. Thank you for such a thoughtful video. Good luck with everything this year, many blessings, Madi.
Very introspective of you Maya. Especially the part about self acceptance and the realities of being trans in society. Some great pearls of wisdom. Most important is that you are beautiful on the inside. 💞
This is so wholesome! I'm about a year late, but this was a new year's message I really needed to hear. Every bit of advice you gave was relevant and helpful. You're beautiful, inside and out. Not everyone is willing to see it, apparently, but this is one girl who's rooting for you every step of the way.
Your chin is actually one of the things I noticed which made you exceptionally beautiful in my eyes. Not many people have such an exquisitely perfectly shaped chin. Please don’t change it.
@Syn Cloud Yeah. One of my biggest insecurities is how deep my voice is so, ive been practicing. I'm at a point where it might be passable when I'm looking more femme but I might just pursue that vocal cord reduction surgery. The major hold-up is my therapist wont sign off on the hormones until I complete the examinations and she only sold them in bulk and I(mistakenly) already paid for them.🤷♀️
Don't listen to what that person wrote and said about you. You are beautiful. You also already know that you are working on some of those insecurities that you have. You know that you can't wave a magic wand and change your appearance over night. People say mean stuff like that because they are insecure themselves. They get their jollies by making other people feel small. Keep your head up and be true to yourself. Also your top looks stunning. Have a happy new year!!!
This is quite possibly the must helpful video that I have seen on this subject. Thank you for making it and sharing your experiences . You are a truly beautiful person inside and out.
Maya, you're an incredible person. You deserve high quality. Your lessons learned here are helpful for all women imo. Congratulations on all your success. I'm thankful for you and your channel. 🤗
My wife and I are involved heavily in the trans community. The single biggest obstacle we have seen time after time is the idea that the transition will make all you social, mental, and emotional problems magically go away. It never happens that way. Stay healthy, stay safe, stay happy.
This. Good Lord this. As a conservative, Republican, Christian lady.. I have no ill will towards anyone, whatever they do with their life.. but it seems those in today's society the message being pushed is that transitioning will make all your dysphoria disappear, will make you euphoric every moment of your life, will heal all your mental struggles, any social anxiety or anxiety in general will also just POOF.. disappear. Mt goodness, it couldn't be farther from the truth. With the rate of medical complications & health problems, the fact that dysphoria doesn't magically go away.. and that fact that one is still human with human struggles is such a shock after being led to believe that transitioning is the golden ticket to solving all of one's problems. And idc who it offends, this new push for the world to acknowledge trans men as men & trans women as women.. is harmful. It's absolutely harmful. Like she says in this video. One.. it leaves someone still not accepting Who They Are. Noone can be mentally or emotionally healthy in that space. It leaves someone still worried about hiding who are they are. It still leaves one with shame and embarrassment.. and it still leaves one trying to reach an unattainable goal.. making one feel as if nothing they will ever do is good enough. It's just a fact that the only way to truly be healthy & happy in that respect, is to acknowledge who you are and be proud of it. I have no doubt that's why new days shows the suicide rate for those after transitioning is still the same and sometimes higher than pre transition.
Try to realize that they are threatened by you, you are a beautiful young woman. Look at all the time they spent trying to change you when maybe they should focus on themselves...? You have come so far on your journey, so for the end of 2018 this is one person talking to another person saying that you have made a difference, and your testimony will help others. You are doing what you are suppose to be doing, good job girl! Be proud to be who you are and love yourself before you allow others the most precious gift you have as a person, that is yourself... Never settle, allow your inner self to dictate what is right and what is wrong, never question her. And please anyone who makes you question yourself’ STAY AWAY FROM THEM! + Michael Congratulations on being such a beautiful young woman!
I'm a nervous mom of a beginning stages mtf teenager. You and a few other TH-camrs are unknowingly helping me be mindfully supportive of my new daughter. So thank you! ❤
Single women raising boys should be arrested for destroying lives. It should be a national security concern. Please stop. Just stop helping. Just stop.
That outfit looks amazing on you! If that's what you're wearing for a New Year party, then you'll start the year looking gorgeously glamorous (or glamorously gorgeous) - a perfect 2020 vision!
You did all this work for yourself not for anybody else. In some cases maybe a wife a husband a girlfriend or boyfriend but in most cases you go through this transformation for yourself. You have nothing to prove to anybody else. You don't have to apologize or explain why you are who you are. We watch your channel for who you are not why you are. And you're pretty damn good at Who You Are.
You should not worry about what other persons say, this is your journey, you have free will, so you should do what feels right for you providing it does not affect others in a negative way. FYI, we are not the body this is just a vehicle to allow us (the spirit/soul) to experience this 3D illusion many call reality, my point is spirits/souls do not have a gender, we chose different genders for each life experience, so this means we have all been female and male throughout our many lives. Anyway, I hope your New Years is fun and safe. Also I am a straight man but I think you are quite beautiful, Adiona.
It was so nice listening to you, as you are refreshingly honest, generous, and mature and wise about what it means to be true to yourself and proud of who you are. Just wanted to say absolutely keep ignoring the criticisms sent you re your appearance. Your inner light is radiant, and there is nothing more to change.
Telling things very clear and of what can be expected in reality, I think Maya has spoken with her heart so I applaud her and wish her a happy New Year.
Thank you so much for the video I am restarting my transition fully after living in stealth living and it was just as you said. You hit the mark on so many aspects and most importantly accepting your transition and who you are. A grateful sister
I have nothing but compliments for you. You are feminine and smart, and full of grace. Your voice in particular is special in an attractive and sexy way, I wouldn’t change a thing about it.
Its boils down to what make you happy your goal your journey is Happiness dont let negativity bring you down Im a straight man I dont have anything against Trans but im against negativity. Your beautiful soft spoken and your smart.
You are so amazing and you don't need to change a thing about yourself. I am a cis woman and yes you may have a different (and more challenging) story than I do but I have SO many insecurities about myself that I wish I could change as well. & if people wouldn't be comfortable to tell me what I would need to 'fix' about myself because I am cis, how should they have the courage to tell you what you need to 'fix'. Those people are just miserable, I love your channel Maya!
you're giving me lots of help with the thought of transitioning 😭 it's hard being asian and doing this. your videos make me feel like im not alone thank you and happy new year
your channel really helps me out because for years i have tried to deny being a woman in a mans body, but you have taught me to accept who i am and i’m thankful
I think you're quite lovely and sexy sweetly feminine would never know your transgender . I'm 68 years old and divorced for 20 years . Interested in transgender women , your all wonderful women. I've been attracted to trans women since the mid 1970's .
Hiya Maya . Great channel. People tend to forget. We don’t do this as a choice, because let’s face no one would put themselves through it. The main goal is personal happiness x
As it is ppl are very simple minded. Whatever u want to be should be all about u. I didnt understand any of this till my friend Christian did it. Chris is an amazing DUDE and deserves all respect. There is a difference between thinking and doing. I supported her all the way. Took lots of money but finally she is happy and very pretty lmao. Tht also took some money lol. It's so sad tht when u are going for it ppl back off. I support all who identify and transitioned. Much love u guys and girls
Just be yourself. Don't worry about what other people think. Sounds like you have a good perspective on life. Happiness comes from within. Good luck on your journey.
You don't need to change a thing! I had $35k of ffs and pass well now, but I can only dream of having a voice like yours or being half as beautiful as you!😘
Maya you're gorgeous and more importantly, you're intelligent. I'm so proud to be in the same community as you. And for the loser who tried to make you feel insecure, for what it's worth, my boyfriend did not know you were trans.
I agree 100% Maya with the fac that we will always be Transwomen... I'm from a large community of trans people here in Metro Detroit and I volunteered for a couple websites as an ambassador so I've encountered hundreds of trans woman. My personal opinion is that no amount of hormones or surgeries or therapies will ever change the fact that we are trans which is caused me a little bit of grief from some of my contemporaries. Personally I do not find it shameful to be a trans woman in fact I truly believe we are unicorns and take some small measure of Pride from being part of something small yet wonderful. I absolutely love you and your reasoning.
Terrible, awful analogy. The blueprints of the building are LITERALLY the EXACT representation of what the building is supposed to be. As in, if the contractor doesn't build the structure to the exact specifications the engineer sets forth in the prints, then they are fined heavily. And no, injecting some estrogen, and getting implants doesn't turn you into a female.
@@johnd9357 I still think it's a valid analogy, the blueprint is there but there are multiple ways to make a business, decorate the interior and specially how it will be run Ex, there is a prison that once it served it's purpose then it was changed to a hotel... Same blueprints different interaction with it
I really commend you for your courage and willingness to discuss your amazing journey. I follow you with great interest because I feel that we should strive for a world where we champion our differences and thrive to integrate a society that is fair, thinks critically about the information that is been propagated and if it is true or not and how it affects us as humanity. I think those who gave you that list are those who are disconnected with the reality of the world that we all live on...embrace our differences and champion the contributions those differences bring into understanding and accepting each other more. I think you are fabulous and I am glad to witness this amazing journey and congratulations in documenting such an amazing odyssey.
You are awesome girl don't Listen to other people who tend to criticize on every point as long as you are happy in yourself that's what matters You are GORGEOUS looking and nobody can take that away from you God bless you for sharing your life with us 🙋♂️🇬🇧
What a great video Maya. I always celebrate the fact that I am Trans. I love being a woman, but I am proud of being Trans. Truly the best transgender video I have seen. Thanks Happy New Year 2020 ❤️
i never hated sex, but it took up too much of my life. now i have more control and that allows me to have more self worth with men, cause I don't have their cryptonite
Thank you Maya for all the light you shared with us this year. You have helped me in ways I cant express in words. I wish you blessings, love and light in the new year girl friend. 2020, a year of clear vision xo
I actually love your chin because you prove that a wide chin is still beautiful. It reassures me that whether or not I ever get surgeries I'll still be able to feel good about myself.
You’ve done very well for yourself, your personal and physical growth have been remarkable and you have much to be proud of...on a side note may I simply wish you the happiest of the New Year...it will be interesting to see how your journey goes....
A really well thought through and down to earth exposition of the positives and negatives of transition. With this kind of ability to analyse complex situations and such a positive attitude I am confident you will do well in life. Thanks for a genuinely insightful video 😁
You are a insightful,strong,courageous,intelligent attractive young lady. If I had not follosed your journey I would think you were just another pretty young lady vlogging. In my sight you are fine just as you are. People sho sit back and are critical ,in most cases are projecting or insecure. Most peoplle if not all se you in a public space see a pretty young woman. I for one am glad you dont have the resources for physical changes. You are great just as you are. Much love and respect.
@Maya Henry for what its worth, the initial impressions from screen are you look great (meaning very feminine in appearance), your voice has a good tone, rhythm and depth. I was paying more attention to your face and your dialogue, so i wasn't looking at your hands or other bodily features which may betray your biological origin. With the best communications in the world, the components of "body language", transmit almost 80% of " the message" the remainder is through the words themselves. To clarify further: "Body language" referred to here, means many things, comprising, vocal tone and pitch, facial appearance, hair, the persons height, and build, appearance of any facial hair, hand size, Adams apple, if legs are on show (are they masculine/hairy or feminine) all of these components, when aligned can produce a true & convincing dialogue for a woman be they trans or cis.
Hey. Just wanted to say I've been watching your videos since I was 13. Now I'm 17 and 6 months of HRT. Thanks for the videos they helped me understand being trans
Agree on the top. Absolutely. Damn you remind me so much of my ex girlfriend. Voice, mannerisms, head tilt emphasizing words.. punctuating, so to speak. All around.. incredible. Interesting topic no doubt. The mental and emotional aspects coupled with the sort of maintenance or, as you more gracefully stated, acceptance of the reality of ‘surgery as lifestyle’. A commitment that I can’t identify with but you described your feelings about it really clearly.. You gave yourself the advice I would have offered- truly embracing the process of self acceptance but I want to take it a step further. Emphasis on ‘process’ because there will undoubtedly be peaks and valleys, so understanding the impermanence of both extremes while getting really ok with the midlands and plateaus. Glad to have happened upon your channel.
You have ABSOLUTELY NOTHING that you need to change. Let's be very VERY clear. You're a woman. There is no question about "Passing" or anything like that! You're gorgeous with all the physical features that you have and you really need to change nothing! Srsly... I get it about being insecure. I get it worrying about various things, I'm trans too and it's super tough to accept and love aspects of yourself when every single aspect is a factor in your transition and you're obviously transitioning for a reason! So yeah. It's a journey for sure, but you... my goodness! You're there. You're living it, you got this! Go, enjoy life, don't worry about anything else having to do with the transition, you're good! GRS is on the plate though from what I understand and yeah, sure. But I mean, even so, you're fine!
I just watched about 5 of your vids and at first I started because I saw a beautiful face with blonde hair which made me want to see what you were about. To my surprise you were talking about your transitioning. You are a beautiful young woman. There is no need to disclose your past .The only thing a guy needs to know is you can't have children if that person wants to have a family.
You are so freaking feminine and beautiful. Cis women's body parts differ for each woman. So what ever differences exist , also exist in cis women. Size, shape, depth etc. You could easily make me feel insecure with my looks. I admire your strength and bravery.
Thanks for sharing your video. For me, I wished I knew what was involved before getting SRS. I went in feeling too excited and didn’t ask as much questions as I should have. There is so much aftercare involved post op and not to mention that I also did encounter complications after the surgery. I don’t regret transitioning at all. But the surgery really took a major toll to my body physically. At least I’m grateful to be living my true authentic self.
Thank you so much Maya for sharing your experiences and thoughts. There is so much valuable knowledge in all of our journeys and I'm so grateful that there are people who put themself in front of the bullets and stand up for all of us. Thank you, keep on shining girl :)
As the Father, uncle and cousin of several LGBTQ+ individuals I am interested in all things LGBTQ+. I find your videos very enlightening and well done. I would also add that you are a remarkable young person with incredible poise & gifted at communicating the many joys & difficulties of transitioning. I did want to address your last comments about people pointing out what they perceive as your shortcomings in your transition. As you express so well, comparing yourself to others, whether biologically born or trans women is both unhelpful and potentially disheartening. But more importantly we all, regardless of who or how we express ourselves, have "shortcomings" real, imagined, self-perceived or attributed to us by others. I have always thought that self-awareness, coupled with self-acceptance, genuine self-acceptance, are the most important things in a Person's life & the key to happiness. And I think you are well on that path and encourage you stay the course as it were. Insofar as a couple of specifics (which I've noticed are a recurring theme in your videos), your voice is no more masculine than many other womens' voices and is no even close to being a give away. Then again I've always preferred deeper voices over high pitched Big Bang Theory Bernadette type voice. So do many if not most men. So don't fret over it. And as for an Adam's Apple & feet or hand sizes, also not noticeable. Your are, and I am trying not to be creepy, a beautiful young woman and I congratulate you on your conviction, your determination & the elegance and taste with which you conduct yourself. As well as for the effort you put into educating both those of us unfamiliar with transitioning as well as those desiring to do so. Kudos and all the best.
One characteristic of females versus men is the wider spacing eyes. Being the human skull reaches complete development at age 20, your having this characteristic suggests you’ve been a female from early age.
I must say that I have been following you on and off for years, since probably 2014 or 15 when i was at university and wrote a paper about the feeling of gender and how ones body affects you with regard to your feeling of gender. It was an interesting time and searched for videos where people like you told their stories I must say I have found your videos very informative and I think you are a brave and beautiful young woman and i have great respect for you! I hope you will have a fantastic 2020 :-)
luved this hit on so many truths i have been always trying to look as passable as i can but even when i began it was my mental state that spured me on always felt so much better being the girl that i feel like again too me the mental part is the hardest
I Maya, I've recently watched all of your videos from the beginning and found them very poignant. You are a very gentle and brave soul. I am a mother to a daughter who is questioning her sexuality, and you have helped me tremendously in understanding what she is going through. She went to her Junior prom in a beautiful tuxedo and I told her how proud I was of her. I had never seen her so happy she was beaming with happiness in all her pictures. I cried for you when I saw you so sad about missing prom. Thank you for sharing your story I'm sure it will help other parents understand things better. You deserve all the wonderful things in life.❤❤❤
Great video, interesting to listen to your thoughts and feelings. I dated a trans girl for about 6 months, met her on a dating site, i only ever saw her as a female, she never wanted to be known as trans because she felt that people would judge her for it, i thought she was right, i found the hardest thing is/was the shortsightedness and pettiness from others, it didn’t work out with us but in the same way it hadn’t worked out with biological females that i had dated, not because she was trans. Finding the right person is like navigating a minefield but we should always stay true to ourselves and not accept anything less than we view our own worth. You seem like a very well balanced girl, hope you continue onwards and upwards 😊👍.
Hi Maya another great video with your take on your transition.. its so very interesting listening to you .. have a wonderful new year and hope it brings you all you wish xx
I have to say I'm glad your channel got reccomended to me during 2016. Ever since then i have gained confident enough to tell a few online friends about my true self past year a happy bi girl (pre op), and i couldnt be more but happier. You look beautiful Maya and I hope you had a good holiday and have a happy new year. Thanks for giving me courage to be myself it means a ton to me.
Thank you for sharing your goal to not compare and contrast yourself to others. I feel your a natural beauty...forget all the cis fem comments. Just be you Maya!!!!!!
Not sure if you have had the orchidectomy yet, but about the libido part: the documentation of it, next to listing risks of infection or the kinds of fluid build-up that you might experience should REALLY include: "Expect hormonal hell!!" I have had an orchidectomy in March 2020 and I will probably oversimplify things here when saying that reaching a higher testosterone level after surgery will probably have a much bigger impact when your regular testosteronvalue without t-blockers and hormones was already low than when it would've been high at that moment. My testosteronelevel has gone up after the surgery (the adrenal glands can be responsible for producing a partial amount of testosterone, which kicks in after surgery when you quit t-blockers immediately) and made my brain go like "Hey, I know a funny game, do you want to feel 14 again?" (I was 14 when I entered boy puberty). Next to that I have been eating truckloads of food for basically 2 months because I have been continuously hungry whatever the amounts I ate.... 13:28 I know a guy who most definitely is not transgender but who has no adams apple, and I know a couple of cis women who most definitely do. If people like to mention the Adams Apple as a telltale sign of someone being transgender, tell them it's not something predominantly appearing in men. The amount of times I mentioned this (mine has been basically invisible from boy puberty) basically everyone started feeling their own throats, and sometimes women found out theirs was actually much more visible than they actually ever payed attention to, and some men found out theirs was also much more invisible than they realized.
You are such a lovely person. I admire you for becoming the person you wanted to be! It doesn't matter if you are a trans woman - I suspect you always were a woman inside. Even if you weren't, you're a woman now and that's all anyone has to know. I appreciate you for who you are - you are enlightened!
I love that top because it gives you the impression that at any moment you are about to see something that the person wearing it might not intend to show you yet obviously it is designed to not quite show it. In other words, it is a very flirty teasing top enough to make anyone who is attracted to pretty girls drool in anticipation and constantly yearning to see more.
I’m shocked that someone sent you a list of things to change about yourself. You’re so beautiful inside and out.

The things you mentioned from the evil list are things that make you beautiful, you need to change nothing!
Your face is the very image of femininity and your voice is wonderful.
IKR, also everyone seems to forget that cis women are a spectrum (as men are), some have more feminine features , some less. And no one is 100% female or male.
not trying to achieve perfection and accepting the things you can't change was a great message I needed today. thank you!
mid range of passing? if i didn't know, i'd never guess you weren't a cis fem. everything about you is beautiful and feminine.

Not everyone thinks that. I puked a little.
The fact that someone made a list of everything «wrong» with u.. omfg people online are so crazy
Honestly I see you as a confident strong courageous woman.
@Sergio Fay I swear
"Woman"
shirley fixed this my apologizes. I have a learning disability.
This video is honestly something I needed to hear SO bad. So many of the things you mentioned have been on my mind lately. No matter how often people tell you that you’re not alone, sometimes that feeling never goes away. It’s wonderful to finally SEE that you really aren’t alone in your personal trials! Thanks for this :)
Your voice has such a feminine register and I'm glad that you were blessed with it. I've been following your channel for a couple of years now and it's amazing how far you've come. You're a strong and beautiful woman and don't let anyone else tell you differently. Keep on keepin' on, and happy new year! :)
In my opinion, You look, sound and present yourself as 100% female. You don't need to change a thing. But What ever you do, It is your body to choose and no one else's opinion even matters. Thank you again for another great video! Your personality is a shinning light and you seem beyond your years in your thinking. I wish you much happiness going into the new year!
Nope..Troon at best....never a woman.
It’s true the first 18 months my dilation schedule had to come before everything. I even had to get special permission from my job for a while.

Hey Maya! You touched on so many questions a lot of us ask ourselves as transwomen during our early days of our transition adventure. Mainly for me, it is comparing myself to others. Hearing life stories of how others made it through, and things to expect and not to expect means lot to us who are just little sprouts in our journey to womanhood through HRT.
Another thing I wish I knew before transitioning would be how difficult it would be to re-learn everything I know about being a woman (at least for me).
So many things that were not second nature (and not my best skills) like applying makeup (well), fashion/dress sense, how to grow out hair past that 'awkward stage', and voice feminization. The costs involved with makeup, and building a new wardrobe, and permanent/semi-permanent hair removal costs.
But with that being said, I do not regret any of it, except it took me so long to admit to myself who I am.
Thanks for your videos, Maya! Please keep inspiring us! x x
Your video message is very positive and loving. I think we all need to be compassionate with ourselves and not let the superficiality of the world we live in take any kind of a foot hold in our lives. Thank you for such a thoughtful video. Good luck with everything this year, many blessings, Madi.
Very introspective of you Maya. Especially the part about self acceptance and the realities of being trans in society. Some great pearls of wisdom. Most important is that you are beautiful on the inside. 💞
This is so wholesome! I'm about a year late, but this was a new year's message I really needed to hear. Every bit of advice you gave was relevant and helpful. You're beautiful, inside and out. Not everyone is willing to see it, apparently, but this is one girl who's rooting for you every step of the way.
Gross af....like IRL...not in a meth fueled fantasy.
You pass perfectly, i have cis women in my family that are more masculine than you, so you're in the clear on passing completely
Except for the voice.That gives it away
@@bernadettedevereux4489 not even the voice gives it away
@@leviathanqueen3780 in my opinion,it does.
Bernadette Devereux I find deeper voices in women sexy...
@@zahnpastacremetube yes,if they're female,deep voices.Male,deep voices have a different quality
Your chin is actually one of the things I noticed which made you exceptionally beautiful in my eyes. Not many people have such an exquisitely perfectly shaped chin. Please don’t change it.
If my timeline holds true I'll be starting my transition by August. All I hope is to be half as successful as yours.
I wish you the best of luck. I am just starting my journey here. I am hoping to begin early this year.
@Syn Cloud Do you see someone professionally for your voice? Or are you doing it on your own?
@Syn Cloud Yeah. One of my biggest insecurities is how deep my voice is so, ive been practicing. I'm at a point where it might be passable when I'm looking more femme but I might just pursue that vocal cord reduction surgery.
The major hold-up is my therapist wont sign off on the hormones until I complete the examinations and she only sold them in bulk and I(mistakenly) already paid for them.🤷♀️
Best advice don't rush transition.....give it time my breast are a 36 C without surgery and I am 43
@@JessicaSimonson1976 Thanks for the advice C:
Don't listen to what that person wrote and said about you. You are beautiful. You also already know that you are working on some of those insecurities that you have. You know that you can't wave a magic wand and change your appearance over night. People say mean stuff like that because they are insecure themselves. They get their jollies by making other people feel small. Keep your head up and be true to yourself. Also your top looks stunning. Have a happy new year!!!
This is quite possibly the must helpful video that I have seen on this subject. Thank you for making it and sharing your experiences . You are a truly beautiful person inside and out.
As a cis woman, I just want to say you are a beautiful young lady . Don’t let anyone steal your joy or tell you otherwise.
What does cis means ?
you're so strong and beautiful
Anyone who says you do t pass is lying. You are a gorgeous girl!
Maya, you're an incredible person. You deserve high quality. Your lessons learned here are helpful for all women imo. Congratulations on all your success. I'm thankful for you and your channel. 🤗
My wife and I are involved heavily in the trans community. The single biggest obstacle we have seen time after time is the idea that the transition will make all you social, mental, and emotional problems magically go away. It never happens that way. Stay healthy, stay safe, stay happy.
This. Good Lord this. As a conservative, Republican, Christian lady.. I have no ill will towards anyone, whatever they do with their life.. but it seems those in today's society the message being pushed is that transitioning will make all your dysphoria disappear, will make you euphoric every moment of your life, will heal all your mental struggles, any social anxiety or anxiety in general will also just POOF.. disappear. Mt goodness, it couldn't be farther from the truth. With the rate of medical complications & health problems, the fact that dysphoria doesn't magically go away.. and that fact that one is still human with human struggles is such a shock after being led to believe that transitioning is the golden ticket to solving all of one's problems. And idc who it offends, this new push for the world to acknowledge trans men as men & trans women as women.. is harmful. It's absolutely harmful. Like she says in this video. One.. it leaves someone still not accepting Who They Are. Noone can be mentally or emotionally healthy in that space. It leaves someone still worried about hiding who are they are. It still leaves one with shame and embarrassment.. and it still leaves one trying to reach an unattainable goal.. making one feel as if nothing they will ever do is good enough. It's just a fact that the only way to truly be healthy & happy in that respect, is to acknowledge who you are and be proud of it. I have no doubt that's why new days shows the suicide rate for those after transitioning is still the same and sometimes higher than pre transition.
Try to realize that they are threatened by you, you are a beautiful young woman.
Look at all the time they spent trying to change you when maybe they should focus on themselves...? You have come so far on your journey, so for the end of 2018 this is one person talking to another person saying that you have made a difference, and your testimony will help others. You are doing what you are suppose to be doing, good job girl!
Be proud to be who you are and love yourself before you allow others the most precious gift you have as a person, that is yourself... Never settle, allow your inner self to dictate what is right and what is wrong, never question her. And please anyone who makes you question yourself’ STAY AWAY FROM THEM!
+ Michael
Congratulations on being such a beautiful young woman!
I'm a nervous mom of a beginning stages mtf teenager.
You and a few other TH-camrs are unknowingly helping me be mindfully supportive of my new daughter. So thank you! ❤
Single women raising boys should be arrested for destroying lives. It should be a national security concern. Please stop. Just stop helping. Just stop.
You’re naturally a confident woman so don’t let anyone take that away! Keep being you girl :)
You a guy?
That outfit looks amazing on you! If that's what you're wearing for a New Year party, then you'll start the year looking gorgeously glamorous (or glamorously gorgeous) - a perfect 2020 vision!
She reminds me of the actress that plays Ali on Pretty Little Liars
Thirstae For Tae omg yes I see this too!!
Sasha...something!!
You did all this work for yourself not for anybody else. In some cases maybe a wife a husband a girlfriend or boyfriend but in most cases you go through this transformation for yourself. You have nothing to prove to anybody else. You don't have to apologize or explain why you are who you are. We watch your channel for who you are not why you are. And you're pretty damn good at Who You Are.
You should not worry about what other persons say, this is your journey, you have free will, so you should do what feels right for you providing it does not affect others in a negative way. FYI, we are not the body this is just a vehicle to allow us (the spirit/soul) to experience this 3D illusion many call reality, my point is spirits/souls do not have a gender, we chose different genders for each life experience, so this means we have all been female and male throughout our many lives. Anyway, I hope your New Years is fun and safe. Also I am a straight man but I think you are quite beautiful, Adiona.
It was so nice listening to you, as you are refreshingly honest, generous, and mature and wise about what it means to be true to yourself and proud of who you are. Just wanted to say absolutely keep ignoring the criticisms sent you re your appearance. Your inner light is radiant, and there is nothing more to change.
Telling things very clear and of what can be expected in reality, I think Maya has spoken with her heart so I applaud her and wish her a happy New Year.
Thank you so much for the video I am restarting my transition fully after living in stealth living and it was just as you said. You hit the mark on so many aspects and most importantly accepting your transition and who you are. A grateful sister
I have nothing but compliments for you. You are feminine and smart, and full of grace. Your voice in particular is special in an attractive and sexy way, I wouldn’t change a thing about it.
Girl! I’ve had a lot of these same thoughts recently too. You’re so right about dating apps. They suck for us. I couldn’t have said it any better.
It sucks for straight guys too, trust me the only people that are doing good is the most desirable
Its boils down to what make you happy your goal your journey is Happiness dont let negativity bring you down Im a straight man I dont have anything against Trans but im against negativity. Your beautiful soft spoken and your smart.
You are so amazing and you don't need to change a thing about yourself. I am a cis woman and yes you may have a different (and more challenging) story than I do but I have SO many insecurities about myself that I wish I could change as well. & if people wouldn't be comfortable to tell me what I would need to 'fix' about myself because I am cis, how should they have the courage to tell you what you need to 'fix'. Those people are just miserable, I love your channel Maya!
you're giving me lots of help with the thought of transitioning 😭 it's hard being asian and doing this. your videos make me feel like im not alone thank you and happy new year
This is kinda late but if you don’t know PrincessJules is an Asian trans TH-camr I know that is great
your channel really helps me out because for years i have tried to deny being a woman in a mans body, but you have taught me to accept who i am and i’m thankful
Also Maya PLEASE don't touch your face unless the need to is truly coming from within. You have such a classic beauty.
I think you're quite lovely and sexy sweetly feminine would never know your transgender . I'm 68 years old and divorced for 20 years . Interested in transgender women , your all wonderful women. I've been attracted to trans women since the mid 1970's .
Plus I love listening to talk.
Right???? No matter what she may do to her face in the future it would not be better than what she have now.
@@richardellis6074 creepy chaser
Im starting my HRT (M2F) in 2 months and it's so cool that's it's getting so close, everything you said is really helpful, you're the best ❤️
This was such a genuine video from a beautiful person. Happy New Year!
Hiya Maya . Great channel. People tend to forget. We don’t do this as a choice, because let’s face no one would put themselves through it. The main goal is personal happiness x
Women of any background would kill for your chin. Seriously. You are so lovely. 💖
You are just SO GORGEOUS and inspirational, even for me, a "cis" woman. Excited to see what 2020 has in store for you! Love from Spain
Thank you! Happy New Year!
@@Mayavhenry ahhh thank you! Same for you goddess
As it is ppl are very simple minded. Whatever u want to be should be all about u. I didnt understand any of this till my friend Christian did it. Chris is an amazing DUDE and deserves all respect. There is a difference between thinking and doing. I supported her all the way. Took lots of money but finally she is happy and very pretty lmao. Tht also took some money lol. It's so sad tht when u are going for it ppl back off. I support all who identify and transitioned. Much love u guys and girls
Maya, you are so right! You have to be happy with yourself, because you are also the only person you have to live with your hole life!
Just be yourself. Don't worry about what other people think. Sounds like you have a good perspective on life. Happiness comes from within. Good luck on your journey.
True nobility, is not about being better than anyone else. It is about being better than you used to be.

You don't need to change a thing! I had $35k of ffs and pass well now, but I can only dream of having a voice like yours or being half as beautiful as you!😘
Don’t listen to the haters, you’re a beautiful girl! Own it!
She's looks like a young Lana Turner👀
@@tristanburton3554 You right tho!
Yep, definitely very pretty baby!
Who...👀
Nah!
Maya you're gorgeous and more importantly, you're intelligent. I'm so proud to be in the same community as you. And for the loser who tried to make you feel insecure, for what it's worth, my boyfriend did not know you were trans.
Omg coming from someone who's starting HRT soon, you are literally one of the most perfect women I've ever seen!! Pls be my friend
First video I have seen of yours, and I absolutely adore you. You go girl, great advice and perspective.
Video intro: "I've been through so much over the years"
2020: "hahahaha"
I agree 100% Maya with the fac that we will always be Transwomen... I'm from a large community of trans people here in Metro Detroit and I volunteered for a couple websites as an ambassador so I've encountered hundreds of trans woman. My personal opinion is that no amount of hormones or surgeries or therapies will ever change the fact that we are trans which is caused me a little bit of grief from some of my contemporaries. Personally I do not find it shameful to be a trans woman in fact I truly believe we are unicorns and take some small measure of Pride from being part of something small yet wonderful. I absolutely love you and your reasoning.
Chromosomes and DNA are like blueprints of a building. The building/person may or may not match the blueprints.
Terrible, awful analogy. The blueprints of the building are LITERALLY the EXACT representation of what the building is supposed to be. As in, if the contractor doesn't build the structure to the exact specifications the engineer sets forth in the prints, then they are fined heavily. And no, injecting some estrogen, and getting implants doesn't turn you into a female.
In their mind they are female, they wil
never be biologically female were they have xx chromosome or ovaries ( not yet at least)
@@johnd9357 I still think it's a valid analogy, the blueprint is there but there are multiple ways to make a business, decorate the interior and specially how it will be run
Ex, there is a prison that once it served it's purpose then it was changed to a hotel... Same blueprints different interaction with it
I really commend you for your courage and willingness to discuss your amazing journey. I follow you with great interest because I feel that we should strive for a world where we champion our differences and thrive to integrate a society that is fair, thinks critically about the information that is been propagated and if it is true or not and how it affects us as humanity. I think those who gave you that list are those who are disconnected with the reality of the world that we all live on...embrace our differences and champion the contributions those differences bring into understanding and accepting each other more. I think you are fabulous and I am glad to witness this amazing journey and congratulations in documenting such an amazing odyssey.
You don't have to change anything to be beautiful maya, you are beautiful just as you are !
You are awesome girl don't Listen to other people who tend to criticize on every point as long as you are happy in yourself that's what matters You are GORGEOUS looking and nobody can take that away from you God bless you for sharing your life with us 🙋♂️🇬🇧
Wait what the heck- your chin is amazing, I am so jealous of it!
What a great video Maya. I always celebrate the fact that I am Trans. I love being a woman, but I am proud of being Trans. Truly the best transgender video I have seen. Thanks Happy New Year 2020 ❤️
With libido dropping off, it was a huge relief to me. I no longer felt like testosterone was forcing me to do something that I pretty much hated.
Madison Shaw exactly. Same.
Feel more Peaceful and happy
i never hated sex, but it took up too much of my life. now i have more control and that allows me to have more self worth with men, cause I don't have their cryptonite
@@delilahjolie that's dope
Did you hate the urge to have sex or sex in general? (Just to be sure what you meant)
Feel the same way, I am 22 and transitioning, 7 months now! I have never dated before since I don't know how..
Thank you Maya for all the light you shared with us this year. You have helped me in ways I cant express in words. I wish you blessings, love and light in the new year girl friend. 2020, a year of clear vision xo
I actually love your chin because you prove that a wide chin is still beautiful. It reassures me that whether or not I ever get surgeries I'll still be able to feel good about myself.
You’ve done very well for yourself, your personal and physical growth have been remarkable and you have much to be proud of...on a side note may I simply wish you the happiest of the New Year...it will be interesting to see how your journey goes....
A really well thought through and down to earth exposition of the positives and negatives of transition. With this kind of ability to analyse complex situations and such a positive attitude I am confident you will do well in life. Thanks for a genuinely insightful video 😁
You are a insightful,strong,courageous,intelligent attractive young lady. If I had not follosed your journey I would think you were just another pretty young lady vlogging. In my sight you are fine just as you are. People sho sit back and are critical ,in most cases are projecting or insecure. Most peoplle if not all se you in a public space see a pretty young woman. I for one am glad you dont have the resources for physical changes. You are great just as you are. Much love and respect.
@Maya Henry for what its worth, the initial impressions from screen are you look great (meaning very feminine in appearance), your voice has a good tone, rhythm and depth. I was paying more attention to your face and your dialogue, so i wasn't looking at your hands or other bodily features which may betray your biological origin. With the best communications in the world, the components of "body language", transmit almost 80% of " the message" the remainder is through the words themselves. To clarify further: "Body language" referred to here, means many things, comprising, vocal tone and pitch, facial appearance, hair, the persons height, and build, appearance of any facial hair, hand size, Adams apple, if legs are on show (are they masculine/hairy or feminine) all of these components, when aligned can produce a true & convincing dialogue for a woman be they trans or cis.
Hey. Just wanted to say I've been watching your videos since I was 13. Now I'm 17 and 6 months of HRT. Thanks for the videos they helped me understand being trans
I remember being optimistic about 2020 back then. lol. Great video Maya hope your GCS recovery is going well!
Agree on the top. Absolutely. Damn you remind me so much of my ex girlfriend. Voice, mannerisms, head tilt emphasizing words.. punctuating, so to speak. All around.. incredible. Interesting topic no doubt. The mental and emotional aspects coupled with the sort of maintenance or, as you more gracefully stated, acceptance of the reality of ‘surgery as lifestyle’. A commitment that I can’t identify with but you described your feelings about it really clearly.. You gave yourself the advice I would have offered- truly embracing the process of self acceptance but I want to take it a step further. Emphasis on ‘process’ because there will undoubtedly be peaks and valleys, so understanding the impermanence of both extremes while getting really ok with the midlands and plateaus. Glad to have happened upon your channel.
A lovely young woman sharing her experiences to help others.
"You rook mauverous, dahling." Seriously, you look fabulous in that top, would love to see you all dolled up for New Years.
You have ABSOLUTELY NOTHING that you need to change. Let's be very VERY clear. You're a woman. There is no question about "Passing" or anything like that! You're gorgeous with all the physical features that you have and you really need to change nothing! Srsly...
I get it about being insecure. I get it worrying about various things, I'm trans too and it's super tough to accept and love aspects of yourself when every single aspect is a factor in your transition and you're obviously transitioning for a reason! So yeah. It's a journey for sure, but you... my goodness! You're there. You're living it, you got this! Go, enjoy life, don't worry about anything else having to do with the transition, you're good!
GRS is on the plate though from what I understand and yeah, sure. But I mean, even so, you're fine!
I just watched about 5 of your vids and at first I started because I saw a beautiful face with blonde hair which made me want to see what you were about. To my surprise you were talking about your transitioning. You are a beautiful young woman. There is no need to disclose your past .The only thing a guy needs to know is you can't have children if that person wants to have a family.
You are so freaking feminine and beautiful. Cis women's body parts differ for each woman. So what ever differences exist , also exist in cis women. Size, shape, depth etc. You could easily make me feel insecure with my looks. I admire your strength and bravery.
That's a kool thumbnail Maya & luv ur new intro may u have safe wonderful 2020.
Thanks for sharing your video. For me, I wished I knew what was involved before getting SRS. I went in feeling too excited and didn’t ask as much questions as I should have. There is so much aftercare involved post op and not to mention that I also did encounter complications after the surgery. I don’t regret transitioning at all. But the surgery really took a major toll to my body physically. At least I’m grateful to be living my true authentic self.
Thank you so much Maya for sharing your experiences and thoughts. There is so much valuable knowledge in all of our journeys and I'm so grateful that there are people who put themself in front of the bullets and stand up for all of us. Thank you, keep on shining girl :)
As the Father, uncle and cousin of several LGBTQ+ individuals I am interested in all things LGBTQ+. I find your videos very enlightening and well done. I would also add that you are a remarkable young person with incredible poise & gifted at communicating the many joys & difficulties of transitioning.
I did want to address your last comments about people pointing out what they perceive as your shortcomings in your transition. As you express so well, comparing yourself to others, whether biologically born or trans women is both unhelpful and potentially disheartening. But more importantly we all, regardless of who or how we express ourselves, have "shortcomings" real, imagined, self-perceived or attributed to us by others.
I have always thought that self-awareness, coupled with self-acceptance, genuine self-acceptance, are the most important things in a Person's life & the key to happiness. And I think you are well on that path and encourage you stay the course as it were.
Insofar as a couple of specifics (which I've noticed are a recurring theme in your videos), your voice is no more masculine than many other womens' voices and is no even close to being a give away. Then again I've always preferred deeper voices over high pitched Big Bang Theory Bernadette type voice. So do many if not most men. So don't fret over it. And as for an Adam's Apple & feet or hand sizes, also not noticeable.
Your are, and I am trying not to be creepy, a beautiful young woman and I congratulate you on your conviction, your determination & the elegance and taste with which you conduct yourself. As well as for the effort you put into educating both those of us unfamiliar with transitioning as well as those desiring to do so.
Kudos and all the best.
One characteristic of females versus men is the wider spacing eyes. Being the human skull reaches complete development at age 20, your having this characteristic suggests you’ve been a female from early age.
I must say that I have been following you on and off for years, since probably 2014 or 15 when i was at university and wrote a paper about the feeling of gender and how ones body affects you with regard to your feeling of gender. It was an interesting time and searched for videos where people like you told their stories I must say I have found your videos very informative and I think you are a brave and beautiful young woman and i have great respect for you! I hope you will have a fantastic 2020 :-)
luved this hit on so many truths i have been always trying to look as passable as i can but even when i began it was my mental state that spured me on always felt so much better being the girl that i feel like again too me the mental part is the hardest
I Maya, I've recently watched all of your videos from the beginning and found them very poignant. You are a very gentle and brave soul. I am a mother to a daughter who is questioning her sexuality, and you have helped me tremendously in understanding what she is going through. She went to her Junior prom in a beautiful tuxedo and I told her how proud I was of her. I had never seen her so happy she was beaming with happiness in all her pictures. I cried for you when I saw you so sad about missing prom. Thank you for sharing your story I'm sure it will help other parents understand things better.
You deserve all the wonderful things in life.❤❤❤
Whoever sent you that list must have been jealous because you are very beautiful
Great video, interesting to listen to your thoughts and feelings.
I dated a trans girl for about 6 months, met her on a dating site, i only ever saw her as a female, she never wanted to be known as trans because she felt that people would judge her for it, i thought she was right, i found the hardest thing is/was the shortsightedness and pettiness from others, it didn’t work out with us but in the same way it hadn’t worked out with biological females that i had dated, not because she was trans.
Finding the right person is like navigating a minefield but we should always stay true to ourselves and not accept anything less than we view our own worth.
You seem like a very well balanced girl, hope you continue onwards and upwards 😊👍.
Hi Maya another great video with your take on your transition.. its so very interesting listening to you .. have a wonderful new year and hope it brings you all you wish xx
I have to say I'm glad your channel got reccomended to me during 2016. Ever since then i have gained confident enough to tell a few online friends about my true self past year a happy bi girl (pre op), and i couldnt be more but happier. You look beautiful Maya and I hope you had a good holiday and have a happy new year. Thanks for giving me courage to be myself it means a ton to me.
Honestly, you are amazing. You are beautiful as you are.
Thank you for sharing your goal to not compare and contrast yourself to others.
I feel your a natural beauty...forget all the cis fem comments. Just be you Maya!!!!!!
Yes Maya, everything you have planned for now I keep my fingers crossed for you and I wish you a happy new year ♥️
I think you are such an intelligent and beautiful young woman! I love the way you look at life and positive self image!!! Awesome content!!!
Not sure if you have had the orchidectomy yet, but about the libido part: the documentation of it, next to listing risks of infection or the kinds of fluid build-up that you might experience should REALLY include: "Expect hormonal hell!!"
I have had an orchidectomy in March 2020 and I will probably oversimplify things here when saying that reaching a higher testosterone level after surgery will probably have a much bigger impact when your regular testosteronvalue without t-blockers and hormones was already low than when it would've been high at that moment.
My testosteronelevel has gone up after the surgery (the adrenal glands can be responsible for producing a partial amount of testosterone, which kicks in after surgery when you quit t-blockers immediately) and made my brain go like "Hey, I know a funny game, do you want to feel 14 again?" (I was 14 when I entered boy puberty).
Next to that I have been eating truckloads of food for basically 2 months because I have been continuously hungry whatever the amounts I ate....
13:28 I know a guy who most definitely is not transgender but who has no adams apple, and I know a couple of cis women who most definitely do. If people like to mention the Adams Apple as a telltale sign of someone being transgender, tell them it's not something predominantly appearing in men.
The amount of times I mentioned this (mine has been basically invisible from boy puberty) basically everyone started feeling their own throats, and sometimes women found out theirs was actually much more visible than they actually ever payed attention to, and some men found out theirs was also much more invisible than they realized.
One of the best transition videos I’ve seen. Thanks for being honest. PS- don’t change a thing
You are such a lovely person. I admire you for becoming the person you wanted to be! It doesn't matter if you are a trans woman - I suspect you always were a woman inside. Even if you weren't, you're a woman now and that's all anyone has to know. I appreciate you for who you are - you are enlightened!
I love that top because it gives you the impression that at any moment you are about to see something that the person wearing it might not intend to show you yet obviously it is designed to not quite show it. In other words, it is a very flirty teasing top enough to make anyone who is attracted to pretty girls drool in anticipation and constantly yearning to see more.
I'm also very envious of her hair. She has the most gorgeous mane.
