I do to, man. Also, thank for connecting. Nothing makes me happier than young transpeople pushing forward despite the mountains they have to overcome. God job, my friend.
Thank you for the update, glad you are safe and congratulations on the new job. Sorry you had to closet your videos but I'm glad you feel relieved now.
Dude, you have done so much for so many of us by continuously sharing your life with us. Go and do what you have to do! I thanks you and want you to know you are a hero to me and I'm sure to many others you'll never know out there. Take good care, brother and thank you.
Sending you deep sincere positive energy. Please do take good care of yourself while you go through all of this and know that all who “know” you are with you 100%. I still listen to “Amazing” and the words bring me to tears every time I listen.
Thank you for all your videos. My partner has just decided to finally medically transition at 39. We have been together and married for 8 years. For all this time I have had the same fears your wife voiced in the beginning; it was like she took the words right out of my mouth! However, something shifted these past few months and all my fears have dissolved. It's videos like yours that have made me aware that I won't be losing my "wife" because I only ever had a husband, and now I'm excited to meet the real him! It takes real bravery to do what you two have done so publically over all these years, and Tiffany was right in that first video when she said you'll be helping people. 8 years later those videos are still helping and inspiring people. So thank you to both of you and I wish you the best!
It sucks that you had to scrub yourself from the internet for fear of discrimination. I know that it’s something you’ve experienced before. I hope to see the day where it isn’t something we have to worry about. Stay strong.
You're a great guy. Thank you for catching us up about what was going on. I was concerned and hearing from you was really nice. Your videos are very helpful and educational specially for people like me, who have zero contact with the subject. But totally understand if you decide to keep them private. Take care my friend
Keep your chin up! You will make it, you are a very strong person. I would say to take this time and relax a little bit. Enjoy your time home with the children. It’s a wonderful time period to be a family, a true family. That’s what it is all about. Congratulations on your new job(s)! You are a very intelligent man and will succeed at anything you try to do. Take a deep breath and enjoy. Summer will be here before you know it. I’m very proud of you. You have made so much for your family! Sending hugs, keeping at least 6 feet away! Enjoy!
It's great to see and hear from you again! I'm So sorry to hear about the rough go and I wish you all the strength to make it through and suceed. Best wishes and peace to you always...
I noticed all your videos were down and wondered what had happened to you. Good to get an update and to hear that you're sorting things out. You're strong, so I know you'll make it. The best of luck my friend...
HEY DADE..VERY NICE TO SEE YOU & MUCH THANKS FOR THE UPDATE! I FULLY UNDERSTAND WHY YOU DUCKED OUT FOR A QUICK MINUTE. APPRECIATE THE INFORMATION YOU JUST RELAYED. THE BEST OF LUCK WITH EVERYTHING! IF THINGS SHOULD SETTLE SOME FOR YOU, IT WOULD BE GREAT TO SEE MORE OF YOU. YOUR CHANNEL/VIDEOS HAVE HELPED ME SO MUCH OVER THE LAST FEW YEARS & WE NEED MORE MEN LIKE YOU IN THE WORLD. TAKE CARE..FTM IN MARYLAND ♥️✌🏼
Thanks, man. My goal is not to be this busy - in fact I hate being this busy. I can't see my way out of it right now, but I promise I will be back more consistently as soon as I can. :)
ElectricDade I HEAR YOU LOUD & CLEAR. DOING SO MUCH HERE JUST TRYING TO KEEP IT TOGETHER..ITS TOUGH, NO DOUBT! MOLTO GRAZIE DADE! I LOOK FORWARD TO YOUR NEXT UPLOAD. STAY WELL>BE WELL.
It was sad to hear what you have been dealing with. From following you for some time now I know you will come out on top of the situation. You have gone through a lot. It was good to see your post> I pray for you and your family during these times. May God watch over you and your family.
Dade, glad you made this video describing your struggles in life and why you took all your videos down. Knowing what happened it makes it all make sense. Hope things go well in your new job and selling your other business. Best wishes for you and your family.
Congratulations on the new job! Working for someone else vs owning your own business is quite a transition, too-good luck with it. Won’t be surprised if you’re running your own consulting business in cybersecurity once you have some experience. Thanks for these videos. They’ve been important to me.
Oh my word! Well I’m glad you have landed a job so you can provide for the family. Yeah that’s a boat load of mess even in normal times. Keep well and bless you and the family.
Glad youre back and safe, I had to switch careers too, last summer, because of some abuse at my pervious job, but it turned out to be a blessing, cause now Im a full time produce clerk in grocery, my previous position 10.years ago, and with grocery, Im really thankful I never lost work. Congrats on your new job Dade, glad you and Tiff and the little ones are safe, youre great!
While I am sure inspiring people is at the bottom of your to-do list, please know that your quiet strength and persistence are incredibly inspiring. I wish you peace and love, and the on-going strength to get through to the other side.
Guy, wishing you the very best. Thank you for the update. Personally, I believe you did the right thing. It’s survival. I think you are courageous for coming back.
We understand....congrats on the new job,...and just focus on fixing this new situation you are in....take a few months break from here if you want...you'll still have our support when you come back....:)
Unfortunately there is still bigotry - do what you need to protect family. From the vids I’ve seen over the years you present as a thoroughly down to earth, decent human being and anyone who’d view them as a negative is a womble. Stay safe and enjoy those little munchkins with Tiff. Big hugs from me and my munchkins.
I’m glad you ever posted on here. 7 years ago I came across one of your transitioning videos, then I binged them all, and it made me realize I was ftm. I didn’t come out until last year, but you changed my life with your videos. I appreciate you. I hope you’re finding some quality time for self care and hopefully these hard times pass soon enough for you. Good luck with everything ❤️
I had to stop my studies in my Masters program because of a lot going on. It was getting way too much and my relationship is way more important. My partner is very supportive of me continuing but I need the break. You have to do what's healthy for you. Best wishes to you!!!
E.D., know that I appreciate your taking the time to hide out in that field to update us, given all the crap you are going through...Handsome as ever, I might add. Stay safe and well.
Glad to see you back. Also glad to see what happened wasn't entirely terrible. I am happy that y'all are getting things back on track. Yall keep safe and take care. I have watched you for many years now and you are what gave me the strength to come out and be myself. I am going through some tough stuff right now and seeing you do a live update made me not feel so alone again. My wife is supportive but poor thing doesn't exactly know what she is dealing with. Anyway thanks again! Sending love from NC!
I just wanted to say thank you. I stumbled upon you last night and watched some of your videos and they gave me hope on a few levels. I have been struggling for a long time with who I am gender wise and stuffed down feelings about my sexual orientation due to gender issues. I am in my mid 40's and am scared to come out now and frank life has been hard enough already but on the other hand not being who I am is also very difficult. I have also had fears of toxic masculinity something I never want to be and never want to turn my back on women in general and the women in my life and fear how they would react. I never want to lose my heart or empathy and your speaking in general so openly and about not falling into that gave me hope also hope about adoption. By my age even before transition I'm incredibly close to it never happening which beyond devastates me I've always been scared even more about coming out. I also greatly admire Tiff she seems like a beautiful soul inside and out, smart and strong and supportive and talented. So glad to hear you are still together. Thank you both for sharing your lives with us. You might have answered this I apologize if I missed it, what was the turning point for you to decide to come out and start your transition? Thank you!
For me it was less of a sudden turning point, and more of a general place I had to get in my life before I could transition. Up until I was about 25 all I could really do is focus on surviving the situation I was in and working towards getting into better circumstances. Once I did that I finally had enough energy to focus on gathering my own strength and making moves towards who I really was. I was 29 when I was finally in a position to transition - though I have known I was male my whole life.
@@ElectricDade thanks so much for your response I admire what you did so much! I have known too just beyond scared. Financially despite my best efforts I'm not in the place I need to be, I come from an abusive family and dread the reaction and of my 2 jobs, one that has been like family for 16 years, and going thru it primarily alone. Afraid of complications of surgery etc. I have heard for many that coming out is the hardest part though none of it is easy. For years I pushed it down hoping I could just deal but I was never happy or fully myself and feel it affected every area of my life.
Jen NY Think of it this way... you can be uncomfortable forever because you are not living your true life - or uncomfortable for a couple years while you wait for the shock to blow over. I know it’s hard, my friend.
Hello from Montreal. Yes we are into 21 days of Provincial Lock down, and it isn't easy at all. I'm so glad you are ok, all things considered. Spoke to a friend of mine earlier in Nova Scotia and he had a conversation and in the end he told my friend jake that, "he had a job, many of us don't" so what was he complaining about. You have a job during a pandemic, you are far better of than all the rest of us, be grateful. that shut his mouth after the conversation. Everything will work out, one day. However we don't know when that One Day will be, until then pull up your pants and hang in there. If we stick to the rules and stay home as needed we won't get sick or pass sick between people. Thinking about you and the family. Chin up my friend. It isn't easy, but we MUST work together to make it through.
One day at a time my friend. Hope the business sells well. Hope the new job goes well and if they do find out, they don't care. OR that they care in a good way!
Hey Dade! Love that you're back! Wow! incredible, you had to hide. In the end, what doesn't kill you, makes you stronger. Sending you love from Germany and a little bit from Russia, I guess :)
It's so nice to get a video update from you! I know when you started your channel, it was educational regarding the process of your change. You wanted to inform others about what it was about and make a difference, and maybe you still do, however, I just don't get why it's anybody's business. I don't think you HAVE to tell anyone...unless you choose to. An employer certainly doesn't need to know about your personal life. I'm a straight gal, and if I ever met you, I would just think you're a handsome man...nothing more/nothing less. And, even though I watched you go through your transition, all I see now is a handsome man. In the future, just do what you need to do, what you want to do. You're an extremely smart man...you'll figure it all out. Oh...nature is good for the soul...stay in the field. :)
Thanks. You are very kind. I agree I don't need to tell anyone, and for the most part I don't. However, Ive been putting content online for nearly 10 years about my transition, so it's there to find if someone puts in any effort at all.
There has been so much going on in your life, no wonder you needed to take time away from TH-cam. Thank you for returning and providing this life update. My country was one of those hit hardest (after China) early on but is stabilizing and we can see normalcy approaching in the horizon.
I kind of knew you where up to your neck with work but....damn that was a tough situation bro. Wishing u the best and I am pretty confident you guys will sort everything out. And yes this are really weird times.
Wow, you. really take a risk with these videos, a risk I had not appreciated till now..I hope that the new regulations in US will help, that you can not get fired because of discrimination but still your courage is appreciated . I didn't realize you have two children by now. It's been a while. Your are amazing.
I know you don't know me but I want you to know that you are such an inspiration to me and I'm sure to a lot of people around the globe. I know you can go through this because I remember all the struggles you already have been before and you faced them all. You are a very strong man and I know you can do this. Stay safe! xo
Hey, man! Thank you for sharing. You probably don't remember but you actually helped me through my transition, you've talked to me, etc. I'm from Brazil and you also follows me on instagram, so I just wanted to say thank you and stay strong. It's hard that even these days we've to go through so much because of jobs, carreer, etc, just because we're being who we are. Anyway, I just thought about leaving this message to thank you and send some support. You're awesome!
Shit, you guys don’t have it easy. I really feel for you and the pressures you are under. Try not to burn yourself out. Your juggling a lot of balls in the air. Stay safe and look after each other xx
I can't tell you how happy I was to see this post, and yet how sad i was to understand why you had to hide. I was crestfallen when trace of you vanished, purely because what you do really does make a difference, and matters. But I also realised that perhaps one day you may feel the need to vanish entirely, and Dade I want to tell you that you, and Tiff, owe all of us nothing. You have shared yourselves and we have been so appreciative of your complete openness. Should that vanish again, we would be equally appreciative of what you have left us with. I doubt few work harder than both of you, and so I hope that everything is starting to work in your favour, and that you all keep safe during this time. My Mum was taken into hospital December 20th with liver failure, and was last week moved (thankfully) to a nursing home who will take care of her safely for the remaining months. We cannot be with her. My Dad is 80 with asthma and high risk. Fortuitously, she has a room with a road-facing window. I am driving Dad and I there daily (not setting a foot on the ground), so we can park outside Mum's window and we can wave at each other. I'm not sure how much of this she understands, but it's the best I can do. Your reappearance has made a huge emotional impact. Much love to you all, from the other side of the pond. And thank you :-)
Pj Whitby I am so sorry I disappeared like that - it’s not how I wanted to handle things. Hopefully, I won’t have to do it again. I would never leave YT permanently without giving everyone a heads-up. You sound like you have a lot on your plate right now. Sending you my very best as you care for your loved ones.
I know we're all doing... well, sub-optimally, at least, during this pandemic, but it sounds like you're shouldering a lot right now. I just wanted to say that I hope you can soon be in a place where you can find peace. I hope you can find encouragement with your loved ones in this trying time.
Now we are colleges, I work in software development, and I am trans too, depending wich company you work for it can be more or less “friendly”, with time you find your place I think, regarding social media every company has its own rules. I also deal with stress studing and working, now the quarantine is testing me and my husband again, kisses from Buenos Aires, Argentina 😘
@@ElectricDade Thank you Dade I appreciate you. A new spiritual awakening! It tends to start with hard times with life and family. Loss of a job or income. Trouble with your significant other or spouse. Feeling isolated and not being able to sleep very well. Your health not feeling too good as well or you seem to have symptoms that wasn't there before all of the problems began. Thinking and following maybe a new type of belief system then you had before.
@@ElectricDade Another thing can happen as well Dade! You can cross a soulmates path or twin flame. Twin Flame which is the highest of the soulmates. They're sent to you during the Awakening to comfort you. Or they actually create the Awakening for you. Its to clean the things that you have never dealt with in life. Any childhood traumas or some other traumatic experience that you have not really dealt with or faced.
We'll come to the other side of this - this kind of economic depression is based out of disease, not scarcity. That said, I wonder if COVID19 will be seasonal and if so, what kind of measures will be put into place for the years to come.
Glad to see you here. As a young trans guy, I look up to you. You're such a strong man. Hope things come back to place for all of us soon.
I do to, man. Also, thank for connecting. Nothing makes me happier than young transpeople pushing forward despite the mountains they have to overcome. God job, my friend.
Thank you for the update, glad you are safe and congratulations on the new job. Sorry you had to closet your videos but I'm glad you feel relieved now.
Dude, you have done so much for so many of us by continuously sharing your life with us. Go and do what you have to do! I thanks you and want you to know you are a hero to me and I'm sure to many others you'll never know out there. Take good care, brother and thank you.
Thank you for coming out and telling us give you the best of luck and hang in there
Here in Brazil it's the same, people trying to survive. You're doing the correct thing. Keep the fight. 😘😘😘😘
Soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo happy to see you back 😍🥰😘😘😘😘😘😘
Thanks for the update. Congrats on the new job and good luck selling the business! 👍
Watching this now..a week before Christmas. Have followed you on and off for years..hope you and yours are safe and well! From Long Beach Calif!
Sending you deep sincere positive energy. Please do take good care of yourself while you go through all of this and know that all who “know” you are with you 100%. I still listen to “Amazing” and the words bring me to tears every time I listen.
You're blessed. Glad you are healthy and doing well.
You Sir, are an Amazing spirit!!
So good to see you again. I hope everything goes well. Bless you!
This too will pass. I wish for the best for you and your family 💚

Hell of a thing to have to resort to hiding out,
It was sad to hear what you have been dealing with. From following you for some time now I know you will come out on top of the situation. You have gone through a lot. It was good to see your post> I pray for you and your family during these times. May God watch over you and your family.
Awwwww 🤯😣😭😭😭🤕😔🤗🤗 we're rooting for you !
Dade, glad you made this video describing your struggles in life and why you took all your videos down. Knowing what happened it makes it all make sense. Hope things go well in your new job and selling your other business. Best wishes for you and your family.
Thank you for the update. Struggling is personal.
You be fine. All will get better soon. 🐸 I know sometimes we need to be stealth go go further. Just for a Lil bit. 😁.

Chris Simpkins We are, but barely. Our whole valley is on fire.
One day at a time my friend. Hope the business sells well. Hope the new job goes well and if they do find out, they don't care. OR that they care in a good way!

So happy to see you again. I have the same thought every time I see you. Damn, he is so handsome. 😍
There has been so much going on in your life, no wonder you needed to take time away from TH-cam. Thank you for returning and providing this life update. My country was one of those hit hardest (after China) early on but is stabilizing and we can see normalcy approaching in the horizon.
Angus Delaney I am so glad you are starting to normalize.
BEST WISHES TO YOU AND YOUR FAMILY.
Stay safe out there, everyone. 💕
I'm so happy to see you!
I would love to write you. What is your email?
I kind of knew you where up to your neck with work but....damn that was a tough situation bro. Wishing u the best and I am pretty confident you guys will sort everything out. And yes this are really weird times.
Thank you for the update.
Wow, you. really take a risk with these videos, a risk I had not appreciated till now..I hope that the new regulations in US will help, that you can not get fired because of discrimination but still your courage is appreciated . I didn't realize you have two children by now. It's been a while. Your are amazing.
You're still healthy that's great and keep posting!
I know you don't know me but I want you to know that you are such an inspiration to me and I'm sure to a lot of people around the globe. I know you can go through this because I remember all the struggles you already have been before and you faced them all. You are a very strong man and I know you can do this. Stay safe! xo
Stay safe. my mentor. sending love from philippines
It’s definitely been a doozy of a year already! I’m sorry you’re going through so much! Hang in there!
It's good to see you again..I missed you...
Hey, man! Thank you for sharing. You probably don't remember but you actually helped me through my transition, you've talked to me, etc. I'm from Brazil and you also follows me on instagram, so I just wanted to say thank you and stay strong. It's hard that even these days we've to go through so much because of jobs, carreer, etc, just because we're being who we are. Anyway, I just thought about leaving this message to thank you and send some support. You're awesome!
Only your own approval is what is powerful for you not others.
CONGRATULATIONS on landing a cybersecurity job, Dade!! Sending you well wishes for a safe, healthy and happy 2020!!
Good to see you again
❤️❤️❤️
If anyone can handle it all, you can. Good to see you’re back up and running. Be safe brother.
Hey man! It's good to hear from you!
ahhhh 2020. And it just keeps giving.
Shit, you guys don’t have it easy. I really feel for you and the pressures you are under. Try not to burn yourself out. Your juggling a lot of balls in the air. Stay safe and look after each other xx
I can't tell you how happy I was to see this post, and yet how sad i was to understand why you had to hide. I was crestfallen when trace of you vanished, purely because what you do really does make a difference, and matters. But I also realised that perhaps one day you may feel the need to vanish entirely, and Dade I want to tell you that you, and Tiff, owe all of us nothing. You have shared yourselves and we have been so appreciative of your complete openness. Should that vanish again, we would be equally appreciative of what you have left us with.
I doubt few work harder than both of you, and so I hope that everything is starting to work in your favour, and that you all keep safe during this time.
My Mum was taken into hospital December 20th with liver failure, and was last week moved (thankfully) to a nursing home who will take care of her safely for the remaining months. We cannot be with her. My Dad is 80 with asthma and high risk. Fortuitously, she has a room with a road-facing window. I am driving Dad and I there daily (not setting a foot on the ground), so we can park outside Mum's window and we can wave at each other. I'm not sure how much of this she understands, but it's the best I can do. Your reappearance has made a huge emotional impact.
Much love to you all, from the other side of the pond. And thank you :-)
Pj Whitby I am so sorry I disappeared like that - it’s not how I wanted to handle things. Hopefully, I won’t have to do it again. I would never leave YT permanently without giving everyone a heads-up. You sound like you have a lot on your plate right now. Sending you my very best as you care for your loved ones.
Glad to see you!
Good to see you Dade man!
I know we're all doing... well, sub-optimally, at least, during this pandemic, but it sounds like you're shouldering a lot right now. I just wanted to say that I hope you can soon be in a place where you can find peace. I hope you can find encouragement with your loved ones in this trying time.
Thanks, friend. We all have a lot right now. It feels like all of humanity is sinking into an exhaustion. I hope we all find some normalcy soon.
Hello, I was glad you came back
I am from Saudi Arabia, I watched all your previous videos , you became source of encouragement to me , thank u .
Now we are colleges, I work in software development, and I am trans too, depending wich company you work for it can be more or less “friendly”, with time you find your place I think, regarding social media every company has its own rules. I also deal with stress studing and working, now the quarantine is testing me and my husband again, kisses from Buenos Aires, Argentina 😘
missed you dade!
Trans ..schmans ..YOU DA MAN...E.D ..........love Tiff and the family ..keep us posted ..you were missed
🙏🏻🕉♥️
Damn, no lie a mans world is a fucking struggle. Keep going strong and good luck mate
Thanks for the update
You are so handsome dude x
❤💕🥰
You are having an awakening Dade? I have went into silence lost my job and life kind of stopped. This was way before the Coronavirus.
I'm so sorry you lost your job. I'm not sure what you mean with your awakening question.
@@ElectricDade Thank you Dade I appreciate you. A new spiritual awakening! It tends to start with hard times with life and family. Loss of a job or income. Trouble with your significant other or spouse. Feeling isolated and not being able to sleep very well. Your health not feeling too good as well or you seem to have symptoms that wasn't there before all of the problems began. Thinking and following maybe a new type of belief system then you had before.
@@JT-ok6re Well, perhaps that is the case. I guess we'll see.
@@ElectricDade Another thing can happen as well Dade! You can cross a soulmates path or twin flame. Twin Flame which is the highest of the soulmates. They're sent to you during the Awakening to comfort you. Or they actually create the Awakening for you. Its to clean the things that you have never dealt with in life. Any childhood traumas or some other traumatic experience that you have not really dealt with or faced.
@@ElectricDade I'm sorry for you, and family as well with this sudden change! Be strong with mediation and time for yourself.
I have a job... in healthcare. They have yet to give us hazard pay. Words can not express how pissed I am aboot that.
We'll come to the other side of this - this kind of economic depression is based out of disease, not scarcity. That said, I wonder if COVID19 will be seasonal and if so, what kind of measures will be put into place for the years to come.
Love the hoodie! Where'd ya get it?
Gosh... I've had it so long I don't even remember!
Thanks for the explanation,but it’s totally unnecessary given how busy you are. Good luck in school. Wishing you peace,love, and happiness in life
