I hope people learn from that. His experience, as a 17 yo, in trusting the adults (church leaders) and going on conversion therapy is exactly the issue we have now with the transgenderism push. Kids trust grown adults that it's OK to transition based on certain feelings. Don't do it. Wait until you are grown and have better understanding of yourself and the world. If you still feel strongly about it, then make that decision as an adult.
Being queer and a survivor of SA, I really resonated with that woman’s story. It does cause you to lose trust in others and even in yourself, but it was so helpful to hear that I don’t feel alone in that. I am slowly rebuilding and finding people who care about me to be my friends, and I wish everyone a beautiful chosen family and friends.

I have been a follower of Jubilee for many years. This has quickly become my favorite series. So much vulnerability in each episode. Each one makes me so emotional.
The SA story has me bawling!!! So many of us aren't able to process what happened to us all at once. Bits and pieces came back to me over months... It was my hs boyfriend that SA me & I had long broken up with him before I even realized. I remember being afraid seeing him out years later & it starting coming back to me. He even "warned" me before hand when he told me that he "stuck it in" when it came to his exs.... I was 16 & clearly clueless. I had no idea what he had planned.
Which country are you from? If it's his strategy might be worth it to go to the police. Though I know how retraumatizing that can be and depending on the country I don't know whether it would even make a difference (and in some it would even be dangerous)
I feel so bad for Victoria and I hope more people show her empathy and sympathy. Trans women are seen as inherently problematic, hypersexualized, predatory so much so that they are the least believed and most accused. Transphobia hurts everyone, women who appear on the bigger side or have body hair etc, feminine men, even Megan Thee Stallion had people thinking she was a trans woman.
this sorta content is EXTREMLY healthy and important and im so glad this way made. these feelings are normal, more so than most would think. there are others out there.
When they asked if anyone related to the rape story, I kind of mumbled to myself "well obviously everyone's going to stand up, or at least all the women" and I still cried when I saw it!! But very touching how supportive everyone was ♡♡♡
This is a really excellent video concept because it’s so true that letting out heavy secrets is so healing and most of us don’t have things like catholic confession as a space to do that. I wish we had this kind of opportunity more widespread for people.
No one cares about gay people crying about their life. If they would do antigay video it would get millions of views and actually Help to improve society.
@@GG22n " No one cares about Gay People"- That's wrong for two reasons: 1. You yourself have already made 9 comments about them instead of just scrolling on like somebody that actually didn't care would. And 2. To be Anti-Gay, you have to care about Gay People even if it's in a negative light.
I hope no one I know sees this, but I hate myself every day for being bi. I can never talk about my love interests to my friends because they'll never understand, especially when I'm talking about a girl to them. The place i live in is very conservative, and no one will ever accept me for the way I am
You are likley caring too much about what other people think, and chasing approval from people who don't accept and validate you; instead of cutting them out and moving on. THis is natural and can change with age/confidence, but often doesn't. It takes a mind shif. Being bi is not rare; and people care less than you think. We are indoctrinated to belief we are the center of the universe, like a naked person, at their weakest in a spotlight, we arent. Move on, be happy, it is a choice. And easy way to train yourself to have mental strenth is ask, when you are deciding to feel bad about what your paranoia or fear
I don't know how to say this, but I'm sure there are people in your community just like you! You just have to reach out, I hope you find a friend who'll understand you ❤
People have thought I was a closeted gay for years. Truth is the people closest to me have known im bisexual. It wasn't a broad announcement I made to everyone in the world. And I never cared to. But I believe it's contrary to our design it's contrary to the survival of our species. And I believe it's a detriment to our society. So should I choose to get married or pursue another romantic relationship it will be a straight heterosexual relationship.
The first one is all us Bisexual women lol we all been there girl. No one should be suppressed for who they love. Also body autonomy is so important, leave folks bodies alone.
Omg so many ppl related to the SA story... That is horrible 💔. To anyone having gone thru that and still working thru the trauma, stay strong and I hope you seek help from your loved ones/authorities ASAP if you haven't done it already bc they must pay and you need support, and I assure you it's not your fault. Have a great day guys ❤
Can I throw in a suggestion for another video? "Adults that were abandoned by a parent/s as a child Get Brutally Honest" The video would definitely make me cry but also feel seen and not alone.
I'm a victim of CSA. Hearing everyone's stories made me realize there are people out there with similar stories as me that I can have conversations with to heal. Videos like this can save lives
As a Christian I have so much empathy for the ones who went through their struggles while being in the church because not all churches and other christian’s are like that.
THANK YOU! I was looking for this type of comment. This rare not real Christians those are people who misinterpret the Bible and make Christians look bad.
This is so fking sad. Im so sorry for both the peoppe who shared their secrets & the viewers who have been through similar encounters. I hope everyone heals from their inner pain & can seek help.
@@Game-bang Hate is just a word that we use to simplify complex feelings and behaviours that someone can feel for another person. This complexity allows people to say that they don't hate somebody just because they wouldn't commit violence against them. Concrete actions or thought speak more volume instead. If you say that you do not hate me, that doesn't mean anything to me because I don't know what you consider "hate". But if you don't support my rights? That's a sign that you are my enemy, because if you won't actively try to strip them away from me, you will enable or support people who will do that.
I was so invested in his emotion when talking about conversion therapy. When he said "I think I just did." I started crying. It feels like I can relate to his emotion even though I've never been through that
I wish I could give Charlie a hug. I feel these people take advantage of teens when it comes to conversion therapy when they’re going through this stage of change in their lives. You are so amazing Charlie ❤️
Man….i wasn’t prepared for this. The SA part, I just had to pause to write this message cause I need a break. I have experience SA since 9 until 24 from family, to friends, and strangers. The people who have done this get to continue their lives while I have to live the life of a survivor which is still rough at the age of 34. I feel so much empathy for these people. And I truly wish none of these things happened. We didn’t deserve this….it what I like to believe.
Another person whose been SA'd here sending you so much love and care. I hope you have a loving community and support to keep on your healing journey. For me, even if it's to spite the people that assaulted me I try to just keep going. Shedding more tears for all of us who keep experiencing this.
you didn't deserve this _period_! You are inherently worthy of love, friendship, respect, safety, genuine connection, and self expression. And there is nothing at all you'd have to do or be to deserve to be treated well, to be protected, to love and be loved, and to not be hurt. You didn't deserve to experience violence by other people and you didn't cause it or had it coming either. -- just in case that you have doubts about that belief, or for another soul in need to be reminded of this. Sending love and hugs if they're consensual
I am so glad I saw that first clip and it’s what you put in the intro. My parents love me unconditionally but because of society I looked up conversion therapy because I didn’t want to be gay. I thought it would be easier to be straight and I am so glad I didn’t go through with it because I could not imagine the emotional turmoil that would have put me through.
Yeah I was molested at 8 on my birthday. I'm so glad the guy didn't like do too much and it was just touching bc just the touching has made me struggle mentally I can't even imagine what it'd be like if he had gone farther. Hope you're okay 💕
@@InfernoPhoenix123 i'm better now but it still indefinitely derailed my development when it comes to that topic, we need more awareness for this stuff 💕
When i was listening to the woman's story on her SA and i was waiting for people to get up and relate my heart sunk when i saw how many of them got up. That's so awful and no one should have to go through that. My heart goes out to them
The first girl's story resonated with me so much! By the time I realized I was bi and was in a place to be able to embrace that I was in a long term heterosexual relationship. There's so much shame in wanting to embrace both parts of yourself when you feel judged for not being "gay enough." Too gay for the straights, too straight for the gays. I feel like I dont fit in anywhere. My partner is queer too, but from the outside we just look like a cis-het couple.
Im a trans guy and it’s so nice to know that im not alone, that everyone has a struggle. Being trans in this world is not easy, and i consistently deal with feelings of shame and loneliness due to my gender identity. It’s not a choice, and i deeply resent people who think it is. I am scared taking the bus and talking with people because i always wonder if they know, or might not accept me. i applaud the trans women who had the courage to speak in this video and share their stories, we do exist.
Except it is a choice, instead of choosing to deal with the hand you are dealt like everyone else you are choosing to indulge in your very specific delusion that you are the opposite gender.
What an emotional video ❤ I’d like to add that a lot of LGBT people and people with eating disorders are also neurodivergent, especially autistic, most of the time undiagnosed because of the stigma and misinformation in our society (I was only diagnosed autistic at 26) ❤ please look into it especially if you’ve always struggled making friends & socialising. I’ve never been happier than since I found out why I felt so different my whole life. Now I know there’s nothing wrong with me, my brain just works differently 😊
I feel like autism is so prevalent nowadays and have questioned it myself. But I’m now starting to think with it being more prevalent I feel we are just the new part of normal so I’m ok without going to a doctor to find out if I do or don’t cause it won’t change much for me personally
@@ARpirateant there’s absolutely no obligation to get a diagnosis, it’s a personal choice I guess 😊 regarding autism being more prevalent, I’d like to specify it’s not that there’s more autistic people than before, which then leads to people believing it’s a trend or whatever; it’s just that there’s more awareness of how autism can present, especially in high-masking individuals, and we’re realising that we missed a lot of autistic people in the last decades 👍 those who got diagnosed during those times were actually a minority!
People just don't understand autism. They use it as a negative term when really it's just a neutral attribute in people's lives and for a vast majority of autistic people it's completely invisible. Our research on it has changed but our attitude towards it still needs to catch up.
this episode really hit home for me. they are all so strong and i hope they continue to be themselves unapologetically and not blame themselves for their traumas. the SA story also was big for me, i didn't realize i was SA'd until months later. it's really easy to blame yourself, but everyone who has been through it should never feel that it was their fault. i love all of these guys and hope they're happy.
until this video, I have to admit, I haven't been moved in a long time. My heart has been hardened to the point where I feel numb and unable to cry. Nothing seemed to break through to me after experiencing sa. This video truly made me cry and feel less alone. It is such a powerful, impactful video, and I am so proud of every single individual who shared their story. It's a tear-jerking video for sure. I love all of you :')
These people are courageous and I have so much respect for them all. Just shows how much we connect as humans. I too have been through SA. in 2019. I won't talk about it as it was brutal and I can't handle the memories tbh. I just respect these people so much for speaking up. One day I will have the courage to do the same.
My meds make it basically impossible to cry, but I just couldn’t keep it together after Victoria’s story and every single person went up to comfort her. And my heart sank when I remembered they weren’t just there to console, but to relate. This world is so cruel sometimes.
This is going to be risky to say on this account but i was SA'd at 15 by my best friend. Since it happened i have always felt like it was my fault and that i shouldn't call it SA because "its not that bad". But the part that makes this story worse is i trusted my partner at the time with this, i sobbed in his arms for over an hour and he broke up with me because he assumed i was using this as an excuse for allegedly cheating on him. I havent trusted anyone since that day. (Sorry for the rant, amazingly touching video and i am so deeply sorry to anyone who has had a similar experience)
I'm sorry that happened to you, and I'm proud of you for talking about it. ♥️ You deserve to feel like you can trust, and I know you'll find that in time.
This was such a hard episode to watch, but I am so proud of everyone that took part of such an important video. I truly wish nothing but the best for everyone there. It takes so much bravery to be able to share ❤
I never comment on videos anymore, but I just had to say something. Thank you so much for this video, jubilee. Truly. This video made me cry but I’m so happy that there’s still love and acceptance in the world. Please cover more topics like this.
Charlie’s story was absolutely heartbreaking and moved me to tears… The powerful silver lining of self forgiveness was so wonderful to hear! Charlie, I wish the very best for you, and I hope you find all the love you deserve! Your story is extremely important, and I hope you know how impactful it was to so many people. ❤️
You all are some of the most real and honest and beautiful souls I've ever seen. If only everyone could be as real and open as you all have been. I relate to so many of your stories. Thank you! ❤
I relate to a lot of these stories. I was raised Catholic When I was starting to realize I liked men, I went through a period of deep self loathing. Like the guy in the video I confided in people in the church I thought I could trust, but they all betrayed in me different ways in the guise of religion. I am better now but it caused me so much grief. On some level I still blame myself for trusting them. I keep thinking if only I didn't tell them I could have gone through a much less painful road if self discovery. Hearing him say he forgives himself gave me hope that one day I can say the same
The talks about these serious topics are always so important, all of these people are so damn brave. I hope all of them have time to heal and grow together as a community ❤
I LOVE that they put the eating disorder one. I dealt with it from 12-23 SO many people deal with it and most hardly accept it because of the way their environment has made them think
As someone that has been sexually abused when I was 20-21 I feel for her so much. You just don’t want it to be real and it can feel as if no one understands what you were going through. Also talking to my mum about it 1.5 years later was the hardest thing because of how hurt she was for me. But it helped talking to my loved ones, even though it was hard. I also think how can we live in such a cruel world that people associate rape more as something happening to children. It never came to my mind to think that but it really touched me hearing her saying that.
19:58 yes, it’s so sad that there’s so much violence towards our community. It even sucks when it’s from people you know. Before I came out there were two times I was almost raped in a bathroom in high school. I had no one to tell… not even my narcissistic emotionally immature mother and father…
So you are giving them flak over something that they know nothing about? Most parents would want to know that their child was attacked more than once at school bc they would want to protect their child.
Can you imagine walking past a gay pride parade with your children and not feeling violent? Why are there creepy naked gay dudes prancing through traffic?
@@rockydennis9928 what if their parents were just unwelcoming ppl? Maybe they learned from their last experiences with them that they're not allies or a safe space.
@@rockydennis9928 it's sounds like you're running off of assumptions because you don't know their personal life 😂. Let's just give them the benifit of the doubt and take what they say at face value.
as a christian it is actually aggravating for me to see other christian’s enforce that being gay is a sin. it’s not. there are many mistranslations proving so. i’m so sorry. i love you all
please make more like this. i loved listening to everyone here, and i wish that i could've heard the others (who i'm sure speak in the patreon release) but the ones that i heard today were beautiful. they were relatable, they were honest, and i'm glad to know their stories. great video. for everyone in this video, i wish you the best. 💚
Im glad these stories are being shared, our voices are loud and we shouldn't stay silent. This is what we have always faught for. So the next generation and our queer folks dont ever have to go through this ever again. Know that queer people will always exist no matter what, either you like it or not we will fight.
this episode gave me the biggest amount of goosebumps & my eyes were welled up w tears during multiple parts of it. these individuals are truly so brave & commendable for sharing their stories ❤
This was a very positive, and hopefully healing, episode. And yes, much of the material is also serious and even difficult to think about. More like this please!
Victoria’s story moved me to tears, not as somebody who went through an SA experience but being a trans woman and having a partner with a similar story. There are bad people out there who take advantage of, demean and hurt trans people for being “easy targets.” Trans women are already marginalized and vulnerable, let alone go through the same kinds of traumas many cis women face as well. Transmisogyny is far too common, and it’s one of many reasons why sisterhood and community are so very important among all women. Victoria, if you end up seeing this comment, you are a truly beautiful woman, and your story is, tragically, so often heard by women, no matter the labels. (Men also face SA and don’t know who to talk to about it in fear of being judged and ridiculed.) I wish you all my best, and that you find the happiness and joy you deserve. ❤️🏳️⚧️
It was so refreshing to hear about more bi people's experiences. I was not expecting it when coming to the video 😢 I hope she stops thinking like that and knows that she IS VALID.
Wow powerful .thank you for making this video . Powerful. This is how we can heal . When the one woman talked about rape and the other come up and said hey mamma , do you need a hug. Everyone hugged . Wow. Where is my clan ? I’m so alone .

The SA story has me bawling!!! So many of us aren't able to process what happened to us all at once. Bits and pieces came back to me over months... It was my hs boyfriend that SA me & I had long broken up with him before I even realized. I remember being afraid seeing him out years later & it starting coming back to me. He even "warned" me before hand when he told me that he "stuck it in" when it came to his exs.... I was 16 & clearly clueless. I had no idea what he had planned.
im so sorry that happened to you. i hope your okay now❤️
Which country are you from? If it's his strategy might be worth it to go to the police. Though I know how retraumatizing that can be and depending on the country I don't know whether it would even make a difference (and in some it would even be dangerous)
Did you get pregnant?
@silentghost751 That is such a wildly inappropriate thing to ask and it is disgusting that you think it is any of your business.
@@Atlas_Quin how? I want to know if an innocent baby was harmed.
Great episode. The fact that religion plays a part in so many people’s trauma and shame says a lot
What about religion?
Not me yelling colonization at the screen HELPP😭💀💀
Religion will either help you or ruin you. That's just how it is.
@@silentghost751 that it’s a weapon for control
Politics is doing much more harm like librealism,marxism, etc.. What are ur takes
What broke my heart was that literally 99% of people stepped forward after Victoria sharing her SA… 😕
Yeah, and the one who didn’t was the guy who blamed himself for something he didn’t really choose 😢 all their stories are so powerful
"I think I just did" and I just bursted into tears
yup
The number of us who have been sexually abused is disheartening..
The common thread here is that organised religion is a thoroughly fucked up affair.
And stories like this is why Pride Month is a thing for anybody wondering.
@ethandollarhide7943 the point will still fly over people's heads. "But why is it being forced in our faces wahhhh"
@ethandollarhide7943 no its not, it's a agenda, they don't care about ppl or the aspects of ppls lives
It's not tho
I have nothing but respect for Pride Month. This is an amazing thing !
Well, now, Pride Parade ?? I have a problem with that 😅
@@hughmungas323 It is. You think I can't see the other comments you've made on this channel? You're mad that they're free
I feel so bad for Victoria and I hope more people show her empathy and sympathy. Trans women are seen as inherently problematic, hypersexualized, predatory so much so that they are the least believed and most accused. Transphobia hurts everyone, women who appear on the bigger side or have body hair etc, feminine men, even Megan Thee Stallion had people thinking she was a trans woman.
i was sobbing about the blonde girls sa and when she turned around to see so many people it just filled my heart
this sorta content is EXTREMLY healthy and important and im so glad this way made. these feelings are normal, more so than most would think. there are others out there.
i was teary eyed from the start but when he said "i just did" i fully broke out in tears. what an episode
Same.. I just wanted to give him a hug
19:35 stop the way they ALL stood up.. im SOBBING in class.
When they asked if anyone related to the rape story, I kind of mumbled to myself "well obviously everyone's going to stand up, or at least all the women" and I still cried when I saw it!! But very touching how supportive everyone was ♡♡♡
This is a really excellent video concept because it’s so true that letting out heavy secrets is so healing and most of us don’t have things like catholic confession as a space to do that. I wish we had this kind of opportunity more widespread for people.
Catholic confession is normally more harmful then helpful in an LGBTQ context:(
We need more episodes like this one. It could help so many people...
No one cares about gay people crying about their life. If they would do antigay video it would get millions of views and actually Help to improve society.
@@GG22n " No one cares about Gay People"- That's wrong for two reasons: 1. You yourself have already made 9 comments about them instead of just scrolling on like somebody that actually didn't care would. And 2. To be Anti-Gay, you have to care about Gay People even if it's in a negative light.
I hope no one I know sees this, but I hate myself every day for being bi. I can never talk about my love interests to my friends because they'll never understand, especially when I'm talking about a girl to them. The place i live in is very conservative, and no one will ever accept me for the way I am
You are likley caring too much about what other people think, and chasing approval from people who don't accept and validate you; instead of cutting them out and moving on. THis is natural and can change with age/confidence, but often doesn't. It takes a mind shif. Being bi is not rare; and people care less than you think. We are indoctrinated to belief we are the center of the universe, like a naked person, at their weakest in a spotlight, we arent. Move on, be happy, it is a choice. And easy way to train yourself to have mental strenth is ask, when you are deciding to feel bad about what your paranoia or fear
I don't know how to say this, but I'm sure there are people in your community just like you! You just have to reach out, I hope you find a friend who'll understand you ❤
People have thought I was a closeted gay for years.
Truth is the people closest to me have known im bisexual. It wasn't a broad announcement I made to everyone in the world. And I never cared to.
But I believe it's contrary to our design it's contrary to the survival of our species. And I believe it's a detriment to our society. So should I choose to get married or pursue another romantic relationship it will be a straight heterosexual relationship.
I can totally relate to this 😢
Reach out to groups like chess clubs and board game nights at a game store, go to the gay bar, go work somewhere like a restaurant. A lot of diversity
Notice how most of these stories have one thing in common? Hint: it starts with a C and rhymes with birch
Yeah that honestly kind of upset me …
Circh
mostly because christians misinterperet the Bible to be homophobic
Because it's in USA? I mean, if it's in another countries, it can be replaced with anything.
I don’t get it
The first one is all us Bisexual women lol we all been there girl.
No one should be suppressed for who they love.
Also body autonomy is so important, leave folks bodies alone.
Omg so many ppl related to the SA story... That is horrible 💔. To anyone having gone thru that and still working thru the trauma, stay strong and I hope you seek help from your loved ones/authorities ASAP if you haven't done it already bc they must pay and you need support, and I assure you it's not your fault. Have a great day guys ❤
Can I throw in a suggestion for another video?
"Adults that were abandoned by a parent/s as a child Get Brutally Honest"
The video would definitely make me cry but also feel seen and not alone.
I’m sorry this happened to you. You never deserved it. ❤️
I'd love to be on this episode as an lgbtq who spent from 12-18 on the streets
I’m sorry that happened to you
I'm a victim of CSA. Hearing everyone's stories made me realize there are people out there with similar stories as me that I can have conversations with to heal. Videos like this can save lives
"I think I just did." ok i'm sobbing??????????? real tears?????
Don't 😔
As a Christian I have so much empathy for the ones who went through their struggles while being in the church because not all churches and other christian’s are like that.
Thank you for that, that is a true Christian take.

I find ppl who say “i dont hate you I just don't support your rights.” as the biggest enemies to freedom
Real

why ?
@@Game-bang Hate is just a word that we use to simplify complex feelings and behaviours that someone can feel for another person. This complexity allows people to say that they don't hate somebody just because they wouldn't commit violence against them. Concrete actions or thought speak more volume instead. If you say that you do not hate me, that doesn't mean anything to me because I don't know what you consider "hate". But if you don't support my rights? That's a sign that you are my enemy, because if you won't actively try to strip them away from me, you will enable or support people who will do that.
@@Game-bangBecause hate is a spectrum?
I was so invested in his emotion when talking about conversion therapy. When he said "I think I just did." I started crying. It feels like I can relate to his emotion even though I've never been through that
I wish I could give Charlie a hug. I feel these people take advantage of teens when it comes to conversion therapy when they’re going through this stage of change in their lives. You are so amazing Charlie ❤️
Man….i wasn’t prepared for this. The SA part, I just had to pause to write this message cause I need a break. I have experience SA since 9 until 24 from family, to friends, and strangers. The people who have done this get to continue their lives while I have to live the life of a survivor which is still rough at the age of 34. I feel so much empathy for these people. And I truly wish none of these things happened. We didn’t deserve this….it what I like to believe.
Another person whose been SA'd here sending you so much love and care. I hope you have a loving community and support to keep on your healing journey.
For me, even if it's to spite the people that assaulted me I try to just keep going.
Shedding more tears for all of us who keep experiencing this.
you didn't deserve this _period_! You are inherently worthy of love, friendship, respect, safety, genuine connection, and self expression. And there is nothing at all you'd have to do or be to deserve to be treated well, to be protected, to love and be loved, and to not be hurt. You didn't deserve to experience violence by other people and you didn't cause it or had it coming either. -- just in case that you have doubts about that belief, or for another soul in need to be reminded of this. Sending love and hugs if they're consensual
this is why i love this community of sorts, all caring and we all are rooted somehow together
I am so glad I saw that first clip and it’s what you put in the intro. My parents love me unconditionally but because of society I looked up conversion therapy because I didn’t want to be gay. I thought it would be easier to be straight and I am so glad I didn’t go through with it because I could not imagine the emotional turmoil that would have put me through.
i was raped the first time when i was 4 and the last time when i was 21, girl you are NOT alone, this can happen at any age
Yeah I was molested at 8 on my birthday. I'm so glad the guy didn't like do too much and it was just touching bc just the touching has made me struggle mentally I can't even imagine what it'd be like if he had gone farther. Hope you're okay 💕
@@InfernoPhoenix123 i'm better now but it still indefinitely derailed my development when it comes to that topic, we need more awareness for this stuff 💕
Oh my 4??! So sorry to hear that. My heart goes out to you.
When i was listening to the woman's story on her SA and i was waiting for people to get up and relate my heart sunk when i saw how many of them got up. That's so awful and no one should have to go through that. My heart goes out to them
in the end we’re all just people.
I like your comment.
YESS! We are all humans!
The first girl's story resonated with me so much! By the time I realized I was bi and was in a place to be able to embrace that I was in a long term heterosexual relationship. There's so much shame in wanting to embrace both parts of yourself when you feel judged for not being "gay enough."
Too gay for the straights, too straight for the gays. I feel like I dont fit in anywhere. My partner is queer too, but from the outside we just look like a cis-het couple.
"religious trauma you know, it's the best" love them kkkk
Im a trans guy and it’s so nice to know that im not alone, that everyone has a struggle. Being trans in this world is not easy, and i consistently deal with feelings of shame and loneliness due to my gender identity. It’s not a choice, and i deeply resent people who think it is. I am scared taking the bus and talking with people because i always wonder if they know, or might not accept me. i applaud the trans women who had the courage to speak in this video and share their stories, we do exist.
same bro
Stop playing victim, you chose this life
Except it is a choice, instead of choosing to deal with the hand you are dealt like everyone else you are choosing to indulge in your very specific delusion that you are the opposite gender.
Yeah, you definitely chose to indulge in this delusion. You are playing a victim instead of dealing with the hand you are dealt like an adult.
@@AoRxStealth be a decent person on TH-cam challenge failed
What an emotional video ❤ I’d like to add that a lot of LGBT people and people with eating disorders are also neurodivergent, especially autistic, most of the time undiagnosed because of the stigma and misinformation in our society (I was only diagnosed autistic at 26) ❤ please look into it especially if you’ve always struggled making friends & socialising. I’ve never been happier than since I found out why I felt so different my whole life. Now I know there’s nothing wrong with me, my brain just works differently 😊
I feel like autism is so prevalent nowadays and have questioned it myself. But I’m now starting to think with it being more prevalent I feel we are just the new part of normal so I’m ok without going to a doctor to find out if I do or don’t cause it won’t change much for me personally
@@ARpirateant there’s absolutely no obligation to get a diagnosis, it’s a personal choice I guess 😊 regarding autism being more prevalent, I’d like to specify it’s not that there’s more autistic people than before, which then leads to people believing it’s a trend or whatever; it’s just that there’s more awareness of how autism can present, especially in high-masking individuals, and we’re realising that we missed a lot of autistic people in the last decades 👍 those who got diagnosed during those times were actually a minority!
I'm trying to get tested, but can't seem to find any facility that offers testing for adults that's covered by insurance.
Womp womp
People just don't understand autism. They use it as a negative term when really it's just a neutral attribute in people's lives and for a vast majority of autistic people it's completely invisible. Our research on it has changed but our attitude towards it still needs to catch up.
this episode really hit home for me. they are all so strong and i hope they continue to be themselves unapologetically and not blame themselves for their traumas. the SA story also was big for me, i didn't realize i was SA'd until months later. it's really easy to blame yourself, but everyone who has been through it should never feel that it was their fault. i love all of these guys and hope they're happy.
The analogy about the foot and plant pot hit me SUPER hard. I needed to hear that. Wow wow.
until this video, I have to admit, I haven't been moved in a long time. My heart has been hardened to the point where I feel numb and unable to cry. Nothing seemed to break through to me after experiencing sa. This video truly made me cry and feel less alone. It is such a powerful, impactful video, and I am so proud of every single individual who shared their story. It's a tear-jerking video for sure. I love all of you :')
These people are courageous and I have so much respect for them all. Just shows how much we connect as humans. I too have been through SA. in 2019. I won't talk about it as it was brutal and I can't handle the memories tbh. I just respect these people so much for speaking up. One day I will have the courage to do the same.
So many of them stepping up to talk about their experience with SA broke me a little bit. I'm so sorry to anyone who has suffered in that way.
My meds make it basically impossible to cry, but I just couldn’t keep it together after Victoria’s story and every single person went up to comfort her. And my heart sank when I remembered they weren’t just there to console, but to relate. This world is so cruel sometimes.
“i think i just did” WOW. so amazing
Do a video of "Politicians get brutally honest"
They will never do that, it's too controversial
LOL
@@airihapa It would cause them to lose support lol
mission impossible
Too bad politicians are physically unable to be honest
This is going to be risky to say on this account but i was SA'd at 15 by my best friend. Since it happened i have always felt like it was my fault and that i shouldn't call it SA because "its not that bad". But the part that makes this story worse is i trusted my partner at the time with this, i sobbed in his arms for over an hour and he broke up with me because he assumed i was using this as an excuse for allegedly cheating on him. I havent trusted anyone since that day. (Sorry for the rant, amazingly touching video and i am so deeply sorry to anyone who has had a similar experience)
I'm sorry that happened to you, and I'm proud of you for talking about it. ♥️ You deserve to feel like you can trust, and I know you'll find that in time.
The Black guy and the girl with the colorful pants didn't even speak once. Would've been nice to hear a little of their stories and perspectives.
This was such a hard episode to watch, but I am so proud of everyone that took part of such an important video. I truly wish nothing but the best for everyone there. It takes so much bravery to be able to share ❤
I never comment on videos anymore, but I just had to say something. Thank you so much for this video, jubilee. Truly. This video made me cry but I’m so happy that there’s still love and acceptance in the world. Please cover more topics like this.

Literally 30 seconds in and started crying. This is going to be a heavy episode isn't it?
I relate to a lot of these stories. I was raised Catholic When I was starting to realize I liked men, I went through a period of deep self loathing. Like the guy in the video I confided in people in the church I thought I could trust, but they all betrayed in me different ways in the guise of religion. I am better now but it caused me so much grief. On some level I still blame myself for trusting them. I keep thinking if only I didn't tell them I could have gone through a much less painful road if self discovery. Hearing him say he forgives himself gave me hope that one day I can say the same

i’ve cried during every single one of these videos. so much love to everyone 🖤🖤
As someone that has been sexually abused when I was 20-21 I feel for her so much. You just don’t want it to be real and it can feel as if no one understands what you were going through. Also talking to my mum about it 1.5 years later was the hardest thing because of how hurt she was for me. But it helped talking to my loved ones, even though it was hard.
I also think how can we live in such a cruel world that people associate rape more as something happening to children. It never came to my mind to think that but it really touched me hearing her saying that.
19:58 yes, it’s so sad that there’s so much violence towards our community. It even sucks when it’s from people you know. Before I came out there were two times I was almost raped in a bathroom in high school. I had no one to tell… not even my narcissistic emotionally immature mother and father…
So you are giving them flak over something that they know nothing about? Most parents would want to know that their child was attacked more than once at school bc they would want to protect their child.
Can you imagine walking past a gay pride parade with your children and not feeling violent? Why are there creepy naked gay dudes prancing through traffic?

This was a very positive, and hopefully healing, episode. And yes, much of the material is also serious and even difficult to think about. More like this please!
Victoria’s story moved me to tears, not as somebody who went through an SA experience but being a trans woman and having a partner with a similar story.
There are bad people out there who take advantage of, demean and hurt trans people for being “easy targets.” Trans women are already marginalized and vulnerable, let alone go through the same kinds of traumas many cis women face as well. Transmisogyny is far too common, and it’s one of many reasons why sisterhood and community are so very important among all women.
Victoria, if you end up seeing this comment, you are a truly beautiful woman, and your story is, tragically, so often heard by women, no matter the labels. (Men also face SA and don’t know who to talk to about it in fear of being judged and ridiculed.) I wish you all my best, and that you find the happiness and joy you deserve. ❤️🏳️⚧️
It was so refreshing to hear about more bi people's experiences. I was not expecting it when coming to the video 😢 I hope she stops thinking like that and knows that she IS VALID.
