10:30 “Who are some lgbtq+ people you looked up to as a kid” You guys. You guys helped me a lot in the year and a half since I realized that I wasn’t straight. Thank you, guys, gals, and nonbinary pals.
Yes!! This is so true! Its Thomas, Talyn, and Joan who sort of helped me realize that i was non-binary and that there would be people in the world who respected my pronouns!
What in the world, this comment says something I read from Mr. Beasts comment section, but when I click on it it says the thing I think you really said
Every time I hear "non-binary pals" I want to laugh, scream, and cry all at once. Very few people can even comprehend how much a couple words mean to me. Thank y'alls for existing, keep it up!
Yeah whenever we get representation my heart soars. It's a great feeling to know people respect us for who we are and are willing to give us representation in that way. It's awesome.
The end when he was talking about being proud of all of us, that's when I figured out why I love this man so much. He is not only a funny and kind person, he is one of those youtubers that is not fake and never will be, and THAT is what I love about Thomas Sanders. He is Genuine unlike so many other youtubers. So on behalf of all of us, thank you Thomas, for being there for us even if it is merely through a screen.
Yudron Micros Sorry to sound salty but you are quite wrong. Labels can be hurtful or helpful, they let somebody know who they are. My community is more colourful and NOT bland than you ever will be.
if you need labels to know who you are, then what are you besides those labels, you're putting onto yourself? only YOU should determine who you are. superficial labels take that away. it's not a bad thing to count yourself to certain groups. but i don't think you should make labels a part of your personality or identidy. because, like i said, that's pretty superficial, in my opinion.
I was going through the comments to make sure there weren't any haters, and instead I only found heartfelt messages! Thank you comment section, you just made my day! ❤️
Sophia Strange ikr, it's great to see that there's still some good in the world and that for people in bad situations there's always someone there. Even if it's just a random TH-camr it can really help someone. I just wish every comment section was like this one.
Supa Dupa Fly One, I apologize but what you just typed is grammatically incorrect. And two, I was looking for haters to tell them to kindly stop and report their comment. I recommend you stop making assumptions before you accuse.
Being queer, there is something so comforting about hearing the words "I'm proud of you". I swear I get choked up everytime. Thank you so much Thomas and your friends for this video and for sharing your stories 💜
I know right fufficgiigcigxufxjgx it's also probably why every semblance of a parental figure makes me soft like please adopt me i swear I'll only be a major annoyance please
Shout-out to that awkward phase when you're not really out but kinda starting to drop hints: A few friends know "Oh yeah, my future *partner* " Rainbow accessories But if anyone asks you, you just closet yourself.
Just hearing Thomas talk to the viewers, especially when he says “I’m so proud of you” just makes me happy. It’s like he’s talking to us individually. Being a pansexual girl, this helped a lot. Thank you, Thomas. 💖💖💖
Dear Thomas and friends, I just wanted thank you. You literally saved my life. A few months ago I was struggling with my identity and I tried to come out but everyone thought I was joking every time. And many of my close family members were sadly very unaccepting and we are still working on our relationships. And I was just in a really dark place. I was ready to end my life but was just trying to find a good time. One day I was mindlessly scrolling through my TH-cam and you guys caught my eye. I must have watched your having pride video 20 times. And then I watched the rest of your videos and actually laughed at you and your friends antics for the first time in a long time. The next week I successfully came out to every one and I just wanted to say how much I love you guys. I owe everything to you and I just wanted you to know that. 🏳️🌈🏳️🌈🏳️🌈🏳️🌈❤️❤️❤️❤️ Thanks for the likes guys, this is the most I’ve ever gotten.
Cutiecakes 123 hey I just wanted to really quickly say you are loved and accepted and an amazing person and I love you and I hope your life is going well and you’re doing great! Anyways gotra go BYE
WolfMoon 5123 thank u so much. My life could obviously still be better as I’m sure everyone’s could but it is a lot better than it was. I am still working on my relationships with some people and I know some people with never understand me or accept me but it warms my heart to know you care even if u don’t know me.
@@abbigailsmith1714 Actually, you are apart of the community. You may not identify as LGBTQ+ but you will support and immerse yourself into the community and I personally accept those who support apart of the community. Vine: Oh-I am the gay cousin- Ohmygod
I can’t come out to my family so I’ll come out here: Hi, I’m Danni, I use They/Them pronouns, I like girls and I’m demisexual! I just want to say, y’all are valid and I love you!
Jaden, sweet heart, we've got you. You hang in there and know no matter what you have friends and support here. If you need to chat let me know and I'll send you my number. You're not alone. Hugs.
This is legitimately my first time finding out Thomas is gay. That aside, these folks are so sweet and wholesome I just wanna hug em all and tell them I love them. Personal experiences are invaluable knowledge for those still struggling. Thank you for flourishing in the responsibility of helping others.
This was the first time you found out about him being gay? That's awesome- I guess you (were- I'm 1 year later, sorry) new to the fandom then! So welcome into our family :D I was honestly so confused about his sexuality because of all the bi vines he made😂
Same thing happened to me too haha your friend will be a huge support to you throughout the rest of your coming out, I know mine was. Congrats and I'm so happy it went well
I showed this video to my best friend and he came out to me as gay, thank you so much Thomas, you helped unlock a new chapter in his future. Now whenever we talk we make gay puns and jokes and it brought us closer together. People ship us and we always say, “If only they knew they are shipping a gay person and a lesbian together”
ShadowEquestrian that happened with my friend and I when we were in high school, I’m a lesbian and he’s bi and has a girlfriend (at the time and they’re still together)
at the last part, dude im in the same situation. I scream i love you at my bestie, and she screams i hate you back. Everyone thinks me and her are gay for eachother, but she is straight and im lesbian
Well I'm super late but -Pansexual -Genderfluid -Use whatever pronouns you want I don't really care -And I love everything about this video with all of my cold, dead heart
I came to join the late party!!!! Demiromantic, Panromantic, Bisexual, Demisexual Agender - (they/them pronouns). Hellllooooo my felloowww LGBTQ+ humaaaaaannnnssss ❤️🌈🏳️🌈❤️
I love using the term “Pandemic” for myself. Pansexual, Demiromantic, she/her pronouns. I always get a good smile seeing the confusion when I answer with pandemic.
ik im almost 2 years late but How I came out to my mom me: * writes on a piece of paper "Hi Don't be mad I'm pansexual and agender" she writes back "Good for you honey and I love you no matter what"
awwwww i rlly need to tell my parents but.... my fear is less them not accepting me and more theyll tell some of their friends who r the parents of my 'friends' at my super homophobic christian school.
I came out recently when my mum and dad said I can't get a boyfriend so I like a smartass turned around and said well don't get me wrong guys are cool but girls are too so I'mma get me a girlfriend. (Edit) I am shocked by how many likes this comment got
Omg that's so me lol. I was hanging with some friends and one was talking about how she wanted a boyfriend and I said, "I don't really want a boyfriend." She said "You just haven't met the right guy yet." I said, "No, seriously, I don't want a boyfriend." She said the same thing and one of my other friends said, "Y'know she a lesbian right?" and my friend just said, "Oh. Well, I do now."
For four years I didn't tell my best friend that I was gay. I was afraid that, as a straight man, he'd no longer see me as "one of the guys" if he knew. Recently, I finally came out to him and told him I have a boyfriend. Right away, he told me that he's bisexual and also has a boyfriend, which I never knew. After that, we opened up to each other and the walls came down. We were both hiding our lives from each other out of fear, and it turns out there was nothing to be afraid of! It was a fantastic moment.
lehighguy it's so great you both are finally being open and honest about who you are to each other. i send you all the luck and good vibes needed to keep this beautiful friendship alive.
This is the sweetest fucking thing ever :) this would be so awesome as the plot for a shortfilm, to show people that it might lead to something good if you come out :)
My parents:*Expect a cis/straight girl* Me: Trans guy and pan. Take it or leave it. [One year later edit!] Sooooo... I'm non-binary and pan after all. Panromantic asexual. I came out to my parents and I think they are kinda trying, but still have a long way to go. I still really badly wanna go on T and get top surger, but I really feel comfortable with they/them now! Will keep y'all updated if you wanna.
I came out to my mom almost two years ago (August 13th) as Bi. I didn't even have the courage to tell her IN PERSON. I wrote a letter and put it on a mirror in her bedroom before I left to go to my dad's and basically cried myself to sleep the entire weekend. I got back and my mom had written a six-page letter in response (because I specifically asked her to not talk to me personally about it because I was still uncomfortable) and she didn't care. She thought I may have been too young to decide (I was 12) but she said that if I felt that I liked both guys and girls, or decided I was a lesbian, or a transgender, or whatever that she would still love me no matter what. I still cry whenever I read the letter, though.
True, she just looks happier when she smiles. Happiness is just an excellent quality, an utterly radiant one at that. Sorry, I don't know if I'm making sense. I'm trying to but it's a tiny bit hard. The way I describe things is weird to others sometimes. Sorry. Ah this text is turning into a mess! Or maybe I'm the mess. I'm going now. Sorry.
Art Geek ah, no no, don't worry, I get what you're saying, and I agree!! And I don't think they way you write is weird, it's not common but that doesn't mean ugly, it's actually quite poetic ^^ But if it's of any comfort, I struggle with words a lot, too, many people do actually. So... yeah, sorry.
I know, right!? Every time I watch it, my heart skips a beat and I can’t breathe for a second because the only time I’ve heard (or remembered hearing) anyone say “I’m proud of you” was when I asked my mom “are you proud of me?” Sarcastically and she said “yes, I am proud of you” and my heart skipped a beat and I couldn’t breathe for a second just like when I watch that clip... Damn, that got really personal... welp, it’s there now.
am i the only person who was like full on staring at Talyn and Joan for the whole video as they like held hands n stuff because oh my god that was so freaking cute
My older sister who was adopted last year is gender non-binary and I call them "Big sis" because my dad told me to call them that way. They were born male (Brian) but they have another side to them who's female (Akané).I have two big sisters who were adopted, one Bisexual and one Lesbian. I'm pansexual and my younger sister is Bisexual. My dad learned about my biological sister's sexuality and sat down for two seconds to take it in before being like "I'm proud of you, you just told your dad what makes you happy and, if you come home with a girlfriend, I will welcome her with open arms." He then adopted the twins because they were mistreated for being attracted to girls by their mother. Then, he adopted a beautiful human being that introduced themselves as Akané but then said they were gender non-binary so I got confused for a while (I read a lot of books since then so I'm ok now). And then, I realized my own sexuality and haven't told my dad yet but I don't think he needs to hear it because he always knew I didn't want a relationship with someone I don't like for their personality. I think it was obvious because I told my mom and she didn't even flinch. Ten children and five have found out they were in the LGBTQ+ community.
Liz Snow wow that’s amazing be proud you and your family. I love you all. Thank you for sharing this story I know a good amount of people just need to hear a good coming out story so thank you. Keep sharing the kindness. Love is love 🏳️🌈❤️🧡💛💚💙💜💗🏳️🌈
Thank you for sharing your story ! Your family looks amazing. You can get through anything with people like them on your side, that's for sure. Love is love
i may not be apart if the LGBTQ + community but i will always continue to support this community and share my pride for others for being who they are. I'm so proud of all of you!
The A is asexual but you are a supporter who I guessing is straight so you are a straight alliance to the LGBT community so yes you are apart of the community
*Friend wonders away from me during other months:* ...I've been abandoned... *Friend wonders away from me during Pride month:* ...I've been aPANdoned...
omg how is no one talking about joan and talyn cuddling?? like this is the cutest thing i’ve seen (edit) OMG I HAVE 58 LIKES I NEVER GET THAT MANY (edit #2) OMG 207 U GUYS ARE INSANE (edit #3) omg you guys are too much. 311 likes??
It felt like home watching this video. I consider myself as straight but that doesn't stop me from supporting gay, bisexual, asexual (and so on) people. Thanks for putting this video out here❤
Theres no need for thanking me. We are all literally just people and it makes my heart warm to see people of all kinds supporting and loving eachother. This is such a great community❤
Heya! Fellow Ally!!!! I hope anyone who's reading this comment thread is having a great day! And if not, there's always tomorrow~ Stay safe everyone, and I wish happiness on you all!
I put a comment a while back about being straight but since then I've come to the realization that I'm asexual.... I'm very afraid to tell my parents as my dad says not to support the LGBTQ but i do anyways. Thomas is my favorite TH-camr. My friends know I'm asexual. I just figured it out. So I'm half out of the closet half still in as I'm not out to my family but I'm out to my friends and now whoever is reading this
Alex Harvard Damn, I would use, if I was bi, the pun of “Ain’t no lie, baby I’m bi bi bi.” 😆😆😆😆😆 I’m lesbian and still coming up with puns. I need assistance.
~A little coming out story because this is an amazing community~ When I came out to my mum as Bi, it was kind of out of the blue, while we were watching TV. She went quiet for a bit, but then we continued to watch TV like nothing happened. I was so scared that I’d messed up, I knew my mum was an ally to the community but I was still really anxious. However, she then started talking to me about how she thinks it’s great I can love people regardless of gender, and how she totally accepts me. I felt like a massive weight had been lifted off my shoulders. There’s one thing she said during that conversation that I still find funny. “You can love whoever you want. Except zombies, they freak me out, I have rules about them.” Sorry for the vent, watching this video inspired me to share my story 💖💜💙
When parents are making jokes during their kid's coming out, it means they're already accepting it, and that's so cool ! Love to you and your mom, she sounds amazing
I truly did not know that Thomas was gay. I thought he was bi. But it doesn't make a difference to me, I still love him the absolute same. It just lets me know that my little crush on him is even more irrational than before. He is an amazing and beautiful human being who is helping so many people and I hope that he will continue to help those who need it. Thank you, Thomas
Although I identify with my birth gender of female, and I am heterosexual I want you all to know that you're all amazing and beautiful souls and I admire you all for your strength. Stay proud and stay fabulous
Thomas: one thing I try to do is make you feel welcomed and not alone Me: every time I see one of your videos or vines (because I live in the past and still watch them all the time) I always feel like I belong here and I love that I finally have found a place where I feel like I belong I’m bummed it took so long and I hate that I can’t be here constantly but I’m glad I found it
I don't know why, but I started to cry when you said, "I'm so proud of you." Since I told my parents about my Gender, I don't hear these words anymore ... Thank you very much, I am so happy because I found your channel and you. You helped me a lot. Greetings from the most homopobic country in Europe - Poland.
My best friend is transgender and it was actually very hard for me at first to use the proper pronoun. I knew him as a girl for 6 years. But it’s been a year and now I’m so use to saying his/him and his guy name. I’m very glad that I was one of the first people he trust to tell.
saltyfalsehood Yeah. It’s really hard to come out to people, especially in person, when it comes to being trans. Especially trans male or female. I told my best friend first, I believe. I trusted her with everything and to this day she still hasn’t betrayed this trust I put in her. She is still one of the very few people I trust and I’m glad to have her in my life. She has helped and supported me through so much. It’s been a year now and she’s not afraid to publicly embarrass me when it’s obvious I’m trans by calling me my male name. I don’t find it mean at all, I find it sweet that she will always call me by my preferred pronouns and name no matter where we are or who we’re with. She’s honestly the best. Your friend may not feel the exact way as I feel about my best friend, about you. But I bet he feels something similar. So you should really feel happy he decided to tell you. It was more than likely the best decision he’s made. Much like the best decision I made was telling my best friend.
Story: At the beginning of 7th grade, I was starting to feel attracted to this one girl. It honestly confused me because I had liked a boy in 6th and 7th grade so I was confused as to why I was paying more attention to this girl. Whenever I was in class I would look at her and notice everything she did and I would love it when she laughed. The strange thing was, I did the same with that boy. I always day-dreamed about kissing a girl and a boy and what a relationship would be like in each scenario. In a book I read, called "Afterworlds" by Scott Westerfeld, there are two different stories. One of Darcy, an 18 year old author, and Lizzie, a 17 year old girl who escaped death. Darcy's book actually tells the story of Lizzie, it's really confusing. The point is, Darcy dates this girl named Imogen after she thinks she likes boys. Lizzie dates this boy named Yamaraj and I saw the differences of dating each gender. I think that book, and this video, really helped me to understand my identity. I think I'm bisexual. Thank you Thomas, Alex, Jay, Joan, Rose, Talyn, and Skylar for this video. Love who you are!
Frizziewolf I love Afterworlds! I’m bi, and I really liked seeing that too, since I hadn’t been in any really at that point. That book also helped me to start questioning if I am demiromantic (I think I am) (in case you don’t know, demiromantic means I don’t get romantic feelings until I get to know someone. I always thought everyone was like that, it wasn’t until I read that book that I started to realize that not everyone is like that)
Honestly this makes me cry. In a CATHOLIC SCHOOL people are accepting you! But in most normal schools people are bullied and told to kill themselves for even being a part of the LGBTQ+ community! I'm more crying cause of happiness I'm so happy for you! Congrats! Happy Pride month!
16:02 what joan said hit home so much for me I'm going through stuff with my parents and being repressed so what joan said made me Happy and gives me hope that stuff will get better
25% of the comments are "wait is Thomas gay or bi" another 25% is "guys! I'm part of the lgbt community!" followed by a ton of support and the other 50% is "OMG TALYN AND JOAN ARE SO CUTE TOGETHER AAGAGHHH"
Original Dread Me too. I'm a hard Christian, I'm straight, I identify with the gender I was born with. Everyone needs respect and support because everyone is different, but we're all human. Respect to those who 'come out' in supporting a minority that you may not necessarily be a part of, but that it's unpopular in your home to support.
Original Dread I am too. I am an accepting person. If one of my friends came out, I would be super supportive and love them even more. I want people to be happy with who they are.
Original Dread I am too and I am perfectly fine with LGBT people. If I knew somebody that is LGBT I would be fine with it but I would also be worried about them because in the world we live in not all people like gay people. I would be scared that somebody might try to hurt them.
Kindergarten: Likes girls but doesn't know what to do 1st grade: Straight because homophobic parents 2nd grade: Likes a girl and kisses A FLIPPING GIRL but says I like boys to so I'm "straight". 3rd-5th: Has crushes on girls and guys but says I'm "straight" because of parents. Meets best friends who are bi and pansexual and "straight". 6th grade: IM FLIPPING BI PEEPS DEAL WITH IT!!!!!
I'm not comfortable with revealing my age, but I've experienced sort of the same thing. I might be bi, but I'm still figuring it out. Anyways, stay safe, peeps!
Roses are red I might not be BI But I think you should know That I’m an ally! Edit: thank you all so much! I never would’ve though that a post of mine would break 1k likes!
WAIT DID MY BABY JUST SAY THEY'RE ASEXUAL OH MY GOSH HECKING REPRESENT TALYN ACES ARE SO HARD TO FIND I LOVE YOU THANK YOU FOR ACKNOWLEDGING OUR EXISTENCE
Just came back here to say that back then, when I was 17, four and a half years ago, this video had a strong positive impact on me and made me accept myself. It gave me so much courage at a stressful point. Huge thank you to y'all. Y'all are precious.
I decided to rewatch this and it makes me so happy hearing them talk about their journeys and I'm just like, oh my gosh!!!! That's me!! There's someone out there like me!!
my coming out story🏳️🌈: Friends:So I just told my best friend on the bus and she told the rest of me friends. One now hates me and know she’s not my friend. Other people:so I was in my class room after class and I said “wow I love being Bi” the popular kids heard and know they are all my best friends. My parents: haha hasn’t happened yet.
Mine: Friends: i told them and they were like “oh cool, me too” *seriously tho I have like no straight friends XD* Others: I basically love screaming “YEAH IM PANSEXUAL THAT DOESNT MEAN IM ATTRACTED TO P A N S” Family: I told my mom and she’s like- kiNd oF supPortiVe. *and I’m not telling my dad bc he’s homophobic and I’m not ready to get bibles thrown my way*
durinstime EVERYONE HAS A TYPE OKEEHHH. Literally everyone (girls) i've come out to as pan is like, 'just so you know, i don't want to date you' Like wtf straight women don't want to date every single man.
This video reminds me of why I'm so freaking proud of my school. They recently started a "GSA" club (gender sexuality alliance) once a week during advisories and I just love it. On the posters for it it even says that they made it a safe environment for anyone lgbtq+
My thoughts throughout the video: "hey, this was released on my birthday!" "aww that's so sweet" "he's wearing that shirt AGAIN?!?!" "I MUST HUG EVERYONE IN THIS VIDEO SO THEY KNOW HOW IMPORTANT THEY ARE TO US!"
Before I came out to my friends I would make kind of small hints that I was bi and I remember one time we were joking and roasting each other and one of my friends just said: "You're gay lol." And I quietly said to myself: "Okay you got that one right"
Yeah you know what i said i said to my friends i know how to ruin any ship with me and a girl. Them: how ? Me: im gay. Them:oh *realizea what i said* wait what?
I know you most likely won’t see this but I want to show my appreciation some way. You all are so amazing and are such a beam of light for when I’m not feeling too good about my gender identity and/or expression or my sexuality. When I feel bad because of my family and some bad friends are rude about that sort of thing, or not taking my identification seriously I can always turn to this channel to keep up my confidence a little. I don’t think I’d still be around if it weren’t for you, Thomas and the kind hearted fanders out there being just awesome. Thank you, so much. ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜
Thomas maintaining eye contact with whoever is speaking the entire time is so sweet. He deserves no harm
WHO HARMED HIM!?!?!?!!? I WILL KILL THEM!!!!!!!!!
Crying in L.A. okay, okay....take a chill pill, they grow on trees here.
@@RockyBlvdd to look for another question.
Bri stuart WELL DUH
Crying in L.A. Woah there, Roman, no need to avenge anyone....yet.
When Thomas said "I am proud of you" I literally almost burst into tears.

Me too
Same!
Can we just appreciate Tayln cuddling with Joan for a second?
Kermit the Amphibian I’m not that only one who noticed? I thought I was but *heck* yeah we can appreciate it.
They’re so cute
I so ship them!!!
Yes, yes we can.
I love it so much because they keep playing with each others black rings

“Who are some lgbtq+ people you looked up to as a kid”
You guys. You guys helped me a lot in the year and a half since I realized that I wasn’t straight. Thank you, guys, gals, and nonbinary pals.
ikr them and the fab 5
With me its Ellen and them. Because i cant really watch Ellen a lot, but these guys i can watch all day everyday
Same
Yes!! This is so true! Its Thomas, Talyn, and Joan who sort of helped me realize that i was non-binary and that there would be people in the world who respected my pronouns!
Same.
I told my boyfriend I was bi and he said "I don't care because I still love you no matter what you are." I still love him for that
angel girl That's so cute! Stay strong to the both of you 💖
angel girl awwwwww how sweet
angel girl
That’s so sweet! I want to come out to my bf but I’m really anxious about it...
Aww he is so sweet🤗
When i told my boyfriend he said "I don't really care as long as you don't leave me for whoever else" so that was cute
The intro with Thomas’ friends saying what pronouns they use while jumping off the couch is the best part of the video.
"I came out because of you!"
"No, I came out because of YOU!"
and thats when it becomes a no u battle
:D :D this is underrated.
Me and my friend

I KNOW RIGHT
ikr they was holding hands at 1 point
Every time I hear "non-binary pals" I want to laugh, scream, and cry all at once. Very few people can even comprehend how much a couple words mean to me. Thank y'alls for existing, keep it up!
I smile Every. Single. Time. Just those few words gives me hope.
I totally agree. Non-binary pals for ever!
Yeah whenever we get representation my heart soars. It's a great feeling to know people respect us for who we are and are willing to give us representation in that way. It's awesome.
Miray when I'm in school one of my teachers used to say ok guys,gals and I had restrain my self for saying and non-binary pals
Lol I usually just say it in my head XD
Why can't the whole world be like this? A big soup of love
Jullsisback hahahah i love that u said *soup*
Jullsisback ikr????
Jullsisback Why is soup right?
TotalWeirdo probably bc soup brings comfort much like this group
Same then it would a whole new world. 🏳️🌈
"Are you gay? And why?"
Well, you see, I heard Sweater Weather and ended up falling in to this rabbit hole of existential fear and gayness.
Well you see I had a taste of the straight pie and I didn't really like it. So I settled on blackberry pie.
my sexuality is Blackberry
Well, you see, i opened tiktok and it hit me.
Well, you see, girls and enbies exist and I just-
The way Thomas's lips moves looks like he is going to start crying happy tears by the confidence of these people.
Same, Thomas. Totally same.

Aww~! That warms my heart! (My voice kinda cracked when i said heart 😂)
The end when he was talking about being proud of all of us, that's when I figured out why I love this man so much. He is not only a funny and kind person, he is one of those youtubers that is not fake and never will be, and THAT is what I love about Thomas Sanders. He is Genuine unlike so many other youtubers. So on behalf of all of us, thank you Thomas, for being there for us even if it is merely through a screen.
Emily Erin that part made me cry
"Labels are good if they help you" that's exactly how I feel
you only need labels, if you have a bland personality.
Yudron Micros Sorry to sound salty but you are quite wrong. Labels can be hurtful or helpful, they let somebody know who they are. My community is more colourful and NOT bland than you ever will be.
if you need labels to know who you are, then what are you besides those labels, you're putting onto yourself?
only YOU should determine who you are. superficial labels take that away.
it's not a bad thing to count yourself to certain groups. but i don't think you should make labels a part of your personality or identidy.
because, like i said, that's pretty superficial, in my opinion.
Niamh Corrigan why is it that y'all complain about labels and then create a whole lot of labels for y'alls sexuality and gender
I'm imagining Joan just cartwheeling around screaming, "IM BI"
This video does help tho
Thank you.
I was going through the comments to make sure there weren't any haters, and instead I only found heartfelt messages! Thank you comment section, you just made my day! ❤️
Sophia Strange ikr, it's great to see that there's still some good in the world and that for people in bad situations there's always someone there. Even if it's just a random TH-camr it can really help someone. I just wish every comment section was like this one.

yeah maybe just stay here.
Sophia Strange the fact that you searched for hate is too much and gives them too much attention
Supa Dupa Fly One, I apologize but what you just typed is grammatically incorrect. And two, I was looking for haters to tell them to kindly stop and report their comment. I recommend you stop making assumptions before you accuse.
Yas same
Being queer, there is something so comforting about hearing the words "I'm proud of you". I swear I get choked up everytime. Thank you so much Thomas and your friends for this video and for sharing your stories 💜
I am so proud of you. Have a great day.😊
Oh man me too, and hello BTS profile picture 😜
I feel that. I saw a freaking tiktok where a guy said that and I’m not lying, I cried.
I know right fufficgiigcigxufxjgx it's also probably why every semblance of a parental figure makes me soft like
please adopt me i swear I'll only be a major annoyance please
Shout-out to that awkward phase when you're not really out but kinda starting to drop hints:
A few friends know
"Oh yeah, my future *partner* "
Rainbow accessories
But if anyone asks you, you just closet yourself.
Zealous Zombae It’s sad because it’s true XD
This is me.
Zealous Zombae PREACH
MEEE!! Most people I know especially elders are homophobic. So I gotta wait until I turn 20 something
Zealous Zombae ME
Me and my friend were texting (she’s bi I’m gay)
Them: ok bi
Me:o-gay cya
This is wonderful
Eijiro Kirishima yea it does!!

Chaotic Artist it's fine
Bro me and my friends do that too lol
Everytime you think Thomas has reached the limit of greatness, that he can't be any greater than he already is, there he goes like "SURPRISE"
Robin Vettier He's such an angel
Robin Vettier Ha, not much of a suprise if you ask me 😂. He has let out so many hints of his sexuality in the past.
If you replace greatness with gayness you would also be right. 🏳️🌈
Just hearing Thomas talk to the viewers, especially when he says “I’m so proud of you” just makes me happy. It’s like he’s talking to us individually. Being a pansexual girl, this helped a lot. Thank you, Thomas. 💖💖💖
You go girl
Im sobbing in a ball on the floor because of when he said that. Im straight but I think I have depression.
Why you like pans
Update. Nvm, I’m a lesbian. Still just as powerful and heartwarming,
Just Peebs25 lol they just,,,,mmmm just somethin about em 😂
Dear Thomas and friends,
I just wanted thank you. You literally saved my life. A few months ago I was struggling with my identity and I tried to come out but everyone thought I was joking every time. And many of my close family members were sadly very unaccepting and we are still working on our relationships. And I was just in a really dark place. I was ready to end my life but was just trying to find a good time. One day I was mindlessly scrolling through my TH-cam and you guys caught my eye. I must have watched your having pride video 20 times. And then I watched the rest of your videos and actually laughed at you and your friends antics for the first time in a long time. The next week I successfully came out to every one and I just wanted to say how much I love you guys. I owe everything to you and I just wanted you to know that.
🏳️🌈🏳️🌈🏳️🌈🏳️🌈❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thanks for the likes guys, this is the most I’ve ever gotten.
Cutiecakes 123 hey I just wanted to really quickly say you are loved and accepted and an amazing person and I love you and I hope your life is going well and you’re doing great! Anyways gotra go BYE
WolfMoon 5123 thank u so much. My life could obviously still be better as I’m sure everyone’s could but it is a lot better than it was. I am still working on my relationships with some people and I know some people with never understand me or accept me but it warms my heart to know you care even if u don’t know me.
I started crying when I read this like not joking I'm not a part of the LGBTQ+ community but I fully support everyone
@@abbigailsmith1714 Actually, you are apart of the community. You may not identify as LGBTQ+ but you will support and immerse yourself into the community and I personally accept those who support apart of the community.
Vine: Oh-I am the gay cousin- Ohmygod
You are so inspiring and I cried while reading this and you deserve all the likes!
I can’t come out to my family so I’ll come out here: Hi, I’m Danni, I use They/Them pronouns, I like girls and I’m demisexual! I just want to say, y’all are valid and I love you!
Hi!!!! I’m August, I use they/them pronouns as well, I’m Panromantic and asexual! I also can’t come out to my family. Glad to meet you!!
Hi there! I’m Jupiter, I use they/them pronouns and I’m pan! Love you too
Howdy, I'm Eevee, I'm a panromantic and asexual! I also use they/them pronouns :D
Well done. Take your time
Hi I am Elora and I am bisexual and I use she/her he/him they/them pronouns And I came out to my mom but she said I was too young to know
"Oh by the way, he's my boyfriend, let's go to the movies now!" xD
Caŋɖყ ყąŋɖɛřɛ sounds like something i would do.....
Caŋɖ same same
caŋɖy that's how I'm coming out to my girlfriend's parents, lol.
Most casual coming out ever
I want to come out like this xD
So I paused this video half way through and texted my mum. I came out as a trans boy and now I'm rocking back and forth in the corner because I DID IT
Jaden the Darklord Congrats!
Jaden the Darklord Go you! :D
Jaden, sweet heart, we've got you. You hang in there and know no matter what you have friends and support here. If you need to chat let me know and I'll send you my number. You're not alone. Hugs.
Jaden the Darklord wow dude Congrats!!!
GO YOU! YOU ARE BRAVE FOR DOING THAT AND I HOPE YOUR MUM ACCEPTS YOU AS SHE SHOULD. NICE ONE😀
lgbtq+ people are some of the NICEST people on the planet. Thank you Thomas and friends!!! Keep being your beautiful selves!
We are, thanks. Unless you run into an aphobe...-_- aphobes are often LGBTQ+ still...
Hehe, Thomas and Friends...
Hehe...
HEHE
Megan McAllister IKR THAT’S WHAT I WAS THINKING
Until you accidentally misgender them
No.
This is legitimately my first time finding out Thomas is gay.
That aside, these folks are so sweet and wholesome I just wanna hug em all and tell them I love them. Personal experiences are invaluable knowledge for those still struggling. Thank you for flourishing in the responsibility of helping others.
This was the first time you found out about him being gay? That's awesome- I guess you (were- I'm 1 year later, sorry) new to the fandom then! So welcome into our family :D
I was honestly so confused about his sexuality because of all the bi vines he made😂
"I came out to everyone except my parents"
Mood...
Same
Bruh my coming out was forced oof
Acie SongBird this has nothing to do with the comment, but I was the 100th like
I feel special now
Joan: well I really like Ellen
*mumbles of agreement from the entire lgbtq community*
Lee Jordan Valdez YES
Yep, Ellen gave us all strength when we needed it.
HAMILTON AND THOMAS SANDERS
I'm DEAD
I love Ellen too. I went to LA and wanted to see them film an episode, but they were taking a break for the summer sadly.
Mood 🏳️🌈
I came out as bi to my best friend last night and I thought she would hate me until she looked at me and said, "lol same" and we high fived
I had the exact same experience with my best friend! We both just screamed and hugged it was great
That's so great! I'm happy it went well😁
I'm so proud of you!
Same thing happened to me too haha your friend will be a huge support to you throughout the rest of your coming out, I know mine was. Congrats and I'm so happy it went well
The same thing happened to me!!! Coincidentally that friend was also my crush and we're dating now.
Rose sipping a gigantic cup that looks like a bowl is adorable and I love it
@Mel D she*
I showed this video to my best friend and he came out to me as gay, thank you so much Thomas, you helped unlock a new chapter in his future. Now whenever we talk we make gay puns and jokes and it brought us closer together. People ship us and we always say, “If only they knew they are shipping a gay person and a lesbian together”
ShadowEquestrian that happened with my friend and I when we were in high school, I’m a lesbian and he’s bi and has a girlfriend (at the time and they’re still together)
The only other lgbtqia+ friends i have are online ones,but I came out to my bffl in real life about a year ago.
Ship???🤔
I am the same as your friend 😃
at the last part, dude im in the same situation. I scream i love you at my bestie, and she screams i hate you back.
Everyone thinks me and her are gay for eachother, but she is straight and im lesbian
Joan is a ray of sunshine and I adore them
I can name 3 lgbtq+ people who I really look up to
Ellen

Hearing that talyn is asexual and in a relationship made me feel so good. I am panromantic and asexual. It was awesome to hear that.
Same :D
We pan romantic aces must conquer the world.
Well I'm super late but
-Pansexual
-Genderfluid
-Use whatever pronouns you want I don't really care
-And I love everything about this video with all of my cold, dead heart
THAT IS A GAY MOOD
My mood honestly that is me
i am personally genderqueer pansexual. i use he, him, she, her, and they, them pronouns
I came to join the late party!!!!
Demiromantic, Panromantic, Bisexual, Demisexual
Agender - (they/them pronouns).
Hellllooooo my felloowww LGBTQ+ humaaaaaannnnssss ❤️🌈🏳️🌈❤️
I love using the term “Pandemic” for myself. Pansexual, Demiromantic, she/her pronouns. I always get a good smile seeing the confusion when I answer with pandemic.
We’re here
We’re queer

How I came out to my mom
me: * writes on a piece of paper "Hi Don't be mad I'm pansexual and agender" she writes back "Good for you honey and I love you no matter what"
Im pan and agender too:)😮😇😊
TonyPerryIsMyTurtle also I love ur profile pic
awwwww i rlly need to tell my parents but.... my fear is less them not accepting me and more theyll tell some of their friends who r the parents of my 'friends' at my super homophobic christian school.
I sent mine a TH-cam video because I have no guts
OMG!!!!!! I am pan and agender to!
Can we take a second to appreciate how drop dead gorgeous Rose is? She's absolutely beautiful!
Yessss
Yeeeessss she's so sweet and beautiful gosh i love her body language
tbh she looks like a model or smth, just very tall and elegant.
Just about to say that. My lesbian ass is obsessed.
I was just about to comment that
i love how talyn has their arms around joan and what not and it's literally the cutest thing ever & it's making my cry k bye have a nice day
Courtney Ledbetter are they together??
Starey Cat i'm not sure but i really hope so because they are just so flipping adorable
Starey Cat yes
THEY ARE SO CUTEE
what do you call a non-binary couple? as in girlfriend boyfriend.
I came out recently when my mum and dad said I can't get a boyfriend so I like a smartass turned around and said well don't get me wrong guys are cool but girls are too so I'mma get me a girlfriend.
(Edit) I am shocked by how many likes this comment got
There you go girl be you 🏳️🌈🏳️🌈🏳️🌈
I love that
WE STAN
Omg that's so me lol. I was hanging with some friends and one was talking about how she wanted a boyfriend and I said, "I don't really want a boyfriend." She said "You just haven't met the right guy yet." I said, "No, seriously, I don't want a boyfriend." She said the same thing and one of my other friends said, "Y'know she a lesbian right?" and my friend just said, "Oh. Well, I do now."
We stan a Queen
For four years I didn't tell my best friend that I was gay. I was afraid that, as a straight man, he'd no longer see me as "one of the guys" if he knew. Recently, I finally came out to him and told him I have a boyfriend. Right away, he told me that he's bisexual and also has a boyfriend, which I never knew. After that, we opened up to each other and the walls came down. We were both hiding our lives from each other out of fear, and it turns out there was nothing to be afraid of! It was a fantastic moment.
lehighguy awww good for you guys!
lehighguy aawww! That's like the ideal coming out to your friend story lol
lehighguy it's so great you both are finally being open and honest about who you are to each other. i send you all the luck and good vibes needed to keep this beautiful friendship alive.
lehighguy Awwww OMG that's beautiful I'm going to cry
This is the sweetest fucking thing ever :) this would be so awesome as the plot for a shortfilm, to show people that it might lead to something good if you come out :)
My parents:*Expect a cis/straight girl*
Me: Trans guy and pan. Take it or leave it.
[One year later edit!]
Sooooo... I'm non-binary and pan after all. Panromantic asexual.
I came out to my parents and I think they are kinda trying, but still have a long way to go.
I still really badly wanna go on T and get top surger, but I really feel comfortable with they/them now!
Will keep y'all updated if you wanna.

my life-
I came out to my mom almost two years ago (August 13th) as Bi. I didn't even have the courage to tell her IN PERSON. I wrote a letter and put it on a mirror in her bedroom before I left to go to my dad's and basically cried myself to sleep the entire weekend. I got back and my mom had written a six-page letter in response (because I specifically asked her to not talk to me personally about it because I was still uncomfortable) and she didn't care. She thought I may have been too young to decide (I was 12) but she said that if I felt that I liked both guys and girls, or decided I was a lesbian, or a transgender, or whatever that she would still love me no matter what. I still cry whenever I read the letter, though.
ThatOneGirlThorn that's so sweet of her! I'm glad you have someone to make you feel like you belong and can be who you are, because you can. 💗
ThatOneGirlThorn YES IM SO HAPPY FOR YOU! YOU ARE AN INSPIRATION TO ALL EXTRA YOUNG BI PEOPLE
ThatOneGirlThorn lol that was on my birthday
thats a good idea mind if i take that and run with it
KattHatt Sure, if it works best for you!
Rose is really pretty when she smiles.
Art Geek she's really pretty all the time tbh but ye
True, she just looks happier when she smiles. Happiness is just an excellent quality, an utterly radiant one at that. Sorry, I don't know if I'm making sense. I'm trying to but it's a tiny bit hard. The way I describe things is weird to others sometimes. Sorry. Ah this text is turning into a mess! Or maybe I'm the mess. I'm going now. Sorry.
Art Geek ah, no no, don't worry, I get what you're saying, and I agree!! And I don't think they way you write is weird, it's not common but that doesn't mean ugly, it's actually quite poetic ^^ But if it's of any comfort, I struggle with words a lot, too, many people do actually. So... yeah, sorry.
Terēze Locika Oh, thank you. Don't be sorry. You seem really sweet.
Art Geek no problem! and oh, that's very nice of you to say, thank you as well ;v;
the absolute comfort that is hearing the words “i’m proud of you” means everything to me :’)
i’m crying wow
I know, right!? Every time I watch it, my heart skips a beat and I can’t breathe for a second because the only time I’ve heard (or remembered hearing) anyone say “I’m proud of you” was when I asked my mom “are you proud of me?” Sarcastically and she said “yes, I am proud of you” and my heart skipped a beat and I couldn’t breathe for a second just like when I watch that clip...
Damn, that got really personal... welp, it’s there now.
Here have some hugs, you both are so amazing and deserve so much love
am i the only person who was like full on staring at Talyn and Joan for the whole video as they like held hands n stuff because oh my god that was so freaking cute

My older sister who was adopted last year is gender non-binary and I call them "Big sis" because my dad told me to call them that way. They were born male (Brian) but they have another side to them who's female (Akané).I have two big sisters who were adopted, one Bisexual and one Lesbian. I'm pansexual and my younger sister is Bisexual. My dad learned about my biological sister's sexuality and sat down for two seconds to take it in before being like "I'm proud of you, you just told your dad what makes you happy and, if you come home with a girlfriend, I will welcome her with open arms." He then adopted the twins because they were mistreated for being attracted to girls by their mother. Then, he adopted a beautiful human being that introduced themselves as Akané but then said they were gender non-binary so I got confused for a while (I read a lot of books since then so I'm ok now). And then, I realized my own sexuality and haven't told my dad yet but I don't think he needs to hear it because he always knew I didn't want a relationship with someone I don't like for their personality. I think it was obvious because I told my mom and she didn't even flinch. Ten children and five have found out they were in the LGBTQ+ community.
Liz Snow wow that’s amazing be proud you and your family. I love you all. Thank you for sharing this story I know a good amount of people just need to hear a good coming out story so thank you. Keep sharing the kindness. Love is love 🏳️🌈❤️🧡💛💚💙💜💗🏳️🌈
Thank you for sharing your story ! Your family looks amazing. You can get through anything with people like them on your side, that's for sure. Love is love
What an amazing family, and a beautiful story!
That sounds like an amazing family you have there. You should make a TV show about your lives.
That's so beautiful. You have such a great and supportive family.
Anyone else start crying when Thomas said "I'm proud of you"?
i may not be apart if the LGBTQ + community but i will always continue to support this community and share my pride for others for being who they are. I'm so proud of all of you!
Alayna Inrig if you support it then you are a part of it.
Hailey Roze omg really!? this makes me so happy! Thank you for welcoming me into this amazing community!
Alayna Inrig You are welcome in the community even if people say your not you are. That's why we have the + in LGBT+
The A is asexual but you are a supporter who I guessing is straight so you are a straight alliance to the LGBT community so yes you are apart of the community
I read this wrong and acted like a butt i'm sorry! You are very welcome in the community new friend!
AHHHHHH THOMAS SANDERS JUST SAID HE WAS PROUD OF ME. I AM SO HAPPY
Thank you so much for making this video Thomas
Sincerely, someone trying to figure themselves out
While you're trying to figure yourself out, just know, no matter what, you are V A L I D

Hope you are doing well. What ever you find will be supported.
no real life
I’m actually happy someone who’s Ace like me is representing us bc ppl don’t think asexual ppl count as lgbt
Wait... People don't think of Ace as LGBTQ+?? I always have thought of them as LGBTQ+
Those people are dumb ace is COMPLETELY VALID as LGBT proof is that it's also referred to as LGBTQ+ and LGBTQIA+ the A is for asexual
@@ravenblue55 correct!!
@@averagetransboi sadly yes people do think that :(

It felt like home watching this video. I consider myself as straight but that doesn't stop me from supporting gay, bisexual, asexual (and so on) people. Thanks for putting this video out here❤
Lisa Finke it's so nice to know that there are straight people out there who support the community 😊
Lisa Finke same with me!
Theres no need for thanking me. We are all literally just people and it makes my heart warm to see people of all kinds supporting and loving eachother. This is such a great community❤
Heya! Fellow Ally!!!! I hope anyone who's reading this comment thread is having a great day! And if not, there's always tomorrow~ Stay safe everyone, and I wish happiness on you all!
I put a comment a while back about being straight but since then I've come to the realization that I'm asexual.... I'm very afraid to tell my parents as my dad says not to support the LGBTQ but i do anyways. Thomas is my favorite TH-camr. My friends know I'm asexual. I just figured it out. So I'm half out of the closet half still in as I'm not out to my family but I'm out to my friends and now whoever is reading this
That's cool. Just know that I am so proud of you. I know this is late but don't rush into telling them. Just take your time.
I am too and I am still debating telling my best friend. Being different is a scary thing! Thank goodness for Thomas Sanders.
Congrats :D
Whatever has happened with you in terms of being asexual just remember: YOU.ARE.VALID💜💜

Im bi and fluid
Lol
@@alexharvard154 i used that to come out to my sis she thinks its contagious
~A little coming out story because this is an amazing community~
When I came out to my mum as Bi, it was kind of out of the blue, while we were watching TV. She went quiet for a bit, but then we continued to watch TV like nothing happened. I was so scared that I’d messed up, I knew my mum was an ally to the community but I was still really anxious.
However, she then started talking to me about how she thinks it’s great I can love people regardless of gender, and how she totally accepts me. I felt like a massive weight had been lifted off my shoulders. There’s one thing she said during that conversation that I still find funny. “You can love whoever you want. Except zombies, they freak me out, I have rules about them.”
Sorry for the vent, watching this video inspired me to share my story 💖💜💙
Golden Squid Goddess thank you so much for sharing you don’t know how much just this. Be proud of you. Love who you love. 🏳️🌈❤️🧡💛💚💙💜💗🏳️🌈. 💜💗💙

Thank you :) 🌈
When parents are making jokes during their kid's coming out, it means they're already accepting it, and that's so cool ! Love to you and your mom, she sounds amazing
Kidômaru-Kun
Haha, yeah!
I agree with her on the zombies as well.
OMG DOES SHE WATCH POPULARMMOS
I truly did not know that Thomas was gay. I thought he was bi. But it doesn't make a difference to me, I still love him the absolute same. It just lets me know that my little crush on him is even more irrational than before. He is an amazing and beautiful human being who is helping so many people and I hope that he will continue to help those who need it. Thank you, Thomas
Isn't he bi?
Me either, like i saw posts on his tumblr that hinted or more than hinted it but this video helped me realise how he identifies.
LaryBary58 he says in the video hes gay.
Reese Chloris which one
Rivera Vlogs In thus video. I thought he was bi too until now
When Joan started talking about young bisexual kids he literally was talking about my life
Although I identify with my birth gender of female, and I am heterosexual I want you all to know that you're all amazing and beautiful souls and I admire you all for your strength. Stay proud and stay fabulous

Me: every time I see one of your videos or vines (because I live in the past and still watch them all the time) I always feel like I belong here and I love that I finally have found a place where I feel like I belong I’m bummed it took so long and I hate that I can’t be here constantly but I’m glad I found it

I don't know why, but I started to cry when you said, "I'm so proud of you." Since I told my parents about my Gender, I don't hear these words anymore ... Thank you very much, I am so happy because I found your channel and you. You helped me a lot. Greetings from the most homopobic country in Europe - Poland.
My best friend is transgender and it was actually very hard for me at first to use the proper pronoun. I knew him as a girl for 6 years. But it’s been a year and now I’m so use to saying his/him and his guy name. I’m very glad that I was one of the first people he trust to tell.
saltyfalsehood friendship goals
saltyfalsehood Yeah. It’s really hard to come out to people, especially in person, when it comes to being trans. Especially trans male or female.
I told my best friend first, I believe. I trusted her with everything and to this day she still hasn’t betrayed this trust I put in her. She is still one of the very few people I trust and I’m glad to have her in my life. She has helped and supported me through so much. It’s been a year now and she’s not afraid to publicly embarrass me when it’s obvious I’m trans by calling me my male name. I don’t find it mean at all, I find it sweet that she will always call me by my preferred pronouns and name no matter where we are or who we’re with. She’s honestly the best.
Your friend may not feel the exact way as I feel about my best friend, about you. But I bet he feels something similar. So you should really feel happy he decided to tell you. It was more than likely the best decision he’s made. Much like the best decision I made was telling my best friend.

At the beginning of 7th grade, I was starting to feel attracted to this one girl. It honestly confused me because I had liked a boy in 6th and 7th grade so I was confused as to why I was paying more attention to this girl. Whenever I was in class I would look at her and notice everything she did and I would love it when she laughed. The strange thing was, I did the same with that boy. I always day-dreamed about kissing a girl and a boy and what a relationship would be like in each scenario. In a book I read, called "Afterworlds" by Scott Westerfeld, there are two different stories. One of Darcy, an 18 year old author, and Lizzie, a 17 year old girl who escaped death. Darcy's book actually tells the story of Lizzie, it's really confusing. The point is, Darcy dates this girl named Imogen after she thinks she likes boys. Lizzie dates this boy named Yamaraj and I saw the differences of dating each gender. I think that book, and this video, really helped me to understand my identity. I think I'm bisexual. Thank you Thomas, Alex, Jay, Joan, Rose, Talyn, and Skylar for this video. Love who you are!
Congrats for finding who you are ! You made it ! ^^ Now everything will be just fine ^^ Thank you for sharing your story, lots of love for you
Frizziewolf oh I need to find that.
Frizziewolf I love Afterworlds!
I’m bi, and I really liked seeing that too, since I hadn’t been in any really at that point. That book also helped me to start questioning if I am demiromantic (I think I am) (in case you don’t know, demiromantic means I don’t get romantic feelings until I get to know someone. I always thought everyone was like that, it wasn’t until I read that book that I started to realize that not everyone is like that)
I'm out as trans and bi at school and now my whole grade calls me by my new name and pronouns and its fantastic yo. And this is a Catholic school
Aw thanks fam :) Only through my friends around me did I have the courage to be loud and proud. I hope everyone gets that opportunity in their lives
Wolverrina Your school is amazing and so are you!
Honestly this makes me cry. In a CATHOLIC SCHOOL people are accepting you! But in most normal schools people are bullied and told to kill themselves for even being a part of the LGBTQ+ community! I'm more crying cause of happiness I'm so happy for you! Congrats! Happy Pride month!
Wolverrina that's wonderful!
that's so GREAT!!
16:02 what joan said hit home so much for me I'm going through stuff with my parents and being repressed so what joan said made me Happy and gives me hope that stuff will get better
on spotify, you can choose guy, girl, or non'binary. I officially love that
Wait really?
How doset though do-est this-eth
@@specter_7_reporting_in506 yes, yes u can
@@specter_7_reporting_in506 idek anymore, i just thought it had to do with lgbtq
You can be a guy gal or a non-binary pal 🤗
25% of the comments are "wait is Thomas gay or bi" another 25% is "guys! I'm part of the lgbt community!" followed by a ton of support and the other 50% is "OMG TALYN AND JOAN ARE SO CUTE TOGETHER AAGAGHHH"
They are cute though... lol
THEY ARE THOOOO, JUST SITTIN UP IN THE CORNER AND BEING ADORABLE AAAAAAAAAAHHHH- I mean... Um... Hi?
Allison Medley so is thomas gay or bi?
Magratea Z gay, he literally said so
Yeah lol, I saw that he said it right after I have wrote that comment. Thanks btw
I'm Christian and Straight, but I have so much respect for everybody in this video.
Original Dread Me too. I'm a hard Christian, I'm straight, I identify with the gender I was born with. Everyone needs respect and support because everyone is different, but we're all human.
Respect to those who 'come out' in supporting a minority that you may not necessarily be a part of, but that it's unpopular in your home to support.
Alyssa Tanner very well said.
Original Dread I am too. I am an accepting person. If one of my friends came out, I would be super supportive and love them even more. I want people to be happy with who they are.
Magical Unicorn I'm pan and a Christian :3
Original Dread I am too and I am perfectly fine with LGBT people. If I knew somebody that is LGBT I would be fine with it but I would also be worried about them because in the world we live in not all people like gay people. I would be scared that somebody might try to hurt them.
Kindergarten: Likes girls but doesn't know what to do
1st grade: Straight because homophobic parents
2nd grade: Likes a girl and kisses A FLIPPING GIRL but says I like boys to so I'm "straight".
3rd-5th: Has crushes on girls and guys but says I'm "straight" because of parents. Meets best friends who are bi and pansexual and "straight".
6th grade: IM FLIPPING BI PEEPS DEAL WITH IT!!!!!
Yasssss
I'm not comfortable with revealing my age, but I've experienced sort of the same thing. I might be bi, but I'm still figuring it out. Anyways, stay safe, peeps!
@@katieng1158 True! I'm definitely not the age I was then it was just a time lapse and don't feel pressured. I wish you luck!
Love the profile pic!!
@@IU-id8ts Thank you! I didn't make it but it's still pretty.
Roses are red
I might not be BI
But I think you should know
That I’m an ally!

Honestly same
Artistic tomato
Roses are red

THIS IS REALLY DEEP AND ALSO LIGHTHEARTED uGH THOMAS WHY MUST YOU DO THIS TO ME
Yay congrats
You might have to see a therapist yourself. If you don't like what you see here, then leave.
@Play Thing you're probably just homophobic or hate LGBT 🏳️🌈 so please do everyone a fave and shut the f🏳️🌈🏳️🌈K up
So do Women. Do you have a problem with women? Did you know gay people are similiar to women because of actual Estrogen increase?
+Tokyo RC ok... Just came down!
WAIT DID MY BABY JUST SAY THEY'RE ASEXUAL OH MY GOSH HECKING REPRESENT TALYN ACES ARE SO HARD TO FIND I LOVE YOU THANK YOU FOR ACKNOWLEDGING OUR EXISTENCE
@@parkeranne2992 you can still feel romantic feelings towards people and be asexual :>
@@parkeranne2992, whatwherewhen
Kelly Ward Yes, but asexual and aromantic are different. Asexual is not feeling sexual attraction, but still being able to feel romantic attraction.
CocoaCrazy 25 I thought the exact same thing! I don’t know any other aces in real life.
Hi! Yes! Hello! Ace rep FOREVER!!!!!!!!
Just came back here to say that back then, when I was 17, four and a half years ago, this video had a strong positive impact on me and made me accept myself. It gave me so much courage at a stressful point. Huge thank you to y'all. Y'all are precious.
I genuinely started to tear up at the end when he said he was proud of us. That hit me in the feels more than anything.
I love how your shirt has one red dot that’s hiding in the pocket
Penguin Fan now that's bothering me
10:22 theres more than one red dot
Thomas Jeffershit what also is bothering is the girls makeup ...
Penguin Fan just like how I came out instead of saying coming out of the closet we should say coming out of the pocket
Penguin Fan. ism that red dot
Why does Rose have a better fashion sense than me? Who gave her the right--
she is amazing looking ;D
I'm just sitting here like "I'm not jealous favo I'm gay"
I live for her hair. HOW IS HER HAIR SO NICE?
I love your profile pic
*_exactly_*
I decided to rewatch this and it makes me so happy hearing them talk about their journeys and I'm just like, oh my gosh!!!! That's me!! There's someone out there like me!!
my coming out story🏳️🌈:
Friends:So I just told my best friend on the bus and she told the rest of me friends. One now hates me and know she’s not my friend.
Other people:so I was in my class room after class and I said “wow I love being Bi” the popular kids heard and know they are all my best friends.
My parents: haha hasn’t happened yet.
Lots of love from a hella gay been❤🏳️🌈
The friend thing is a mood
Mine:
Friends: i told them and they were like “oh cool, me too” *seriously tho I have like no straight friends XD*
Others: I basically love screaming “YEAH IM PANSEXUAL THAT DOESNT MEAN IM ATTRACTED TO P A N S”
Family: I told my mom and she’s like- kiNd oF supPortiVe. *and I’m not telling my dad bc he’s homophobic and I’m not ready to get bibles thrown my way*
*when you’re straight*
It's been a year have you told them if so how? I NEED TO KNOW!! Lmao
this video is a pansexual's dream tbh. everyone is so pretty god damn
durinstime
ikr
durinstime EVERYONE HAS A TYPE OKEEHHH.
Literally everyone (girls) i've come out to as pan is like, 'just so you know, i don't want to date you'
Like wtf straight women don't want to date every single man.
Tash M Pretty sure she was just saying she was attracted to them
durinstime True!
SIS! :D and yeah, my thoughts exactly!
This video reminds me of why I'm so freaking proud of my school. They recently started a "GSA" club (gender sexuality alliance) once a week during advisories and I just love it. On the posters for it it even says that they made it a safe environment for anyone lgbtq+
You are soo LUCKY!! I wish my school would have that
We have a GSA but it stands for Gay Strait Alliance
Omg, where? XD I need to go lol
lol
I am the president of the GSA
My thoughts throughout the video:
"hey, this was released on my birthday!"
"aww that's so sweet"
"he's wearing that shirt AGAIN?!?!"
"I MUST HUG EVERYONE IN THIS VIDEO SO THEY KNOW HOW IMPORTANT THEY ARE TO US!"
I can genuinely imagine Joan going through the cafeteria shouting "IM BISEXUAL"
Holly :D same
I would lose respect for him if he did that. That would be a cry for attention.
Nate *them
Holly :D same
Nate *them
Before I came out to my friends I would make kind of small hints that I was bi and I remember one time we were joking and roasting each other and one of my friends just said: "You're gay lol." And I quietly said to myself: "Okay you got that one right"
This is a mood
Yeah you know what i said i said to my friends i know how to ruin any ship with me and a girl. Them: how ? Me: im gay. Them:oh *realizea what i said* wait what?
Yes. I shall take this and put it in my pocket
My brain: You shouldn't go in the comments, there might be homophobes
Me: *goes into comment section anyway*
Comments: *BI* the way
Me too. I AM BI AND PROUD!!!!!!!!
We can all protect each other!
i was looking for bi pride badges one time, and accidentally searched 'bi bride'...
@Artistic tomato what's the difference tho? Can you explain?
I know you most likely won’t see this but I want to show my appreciation some way. You all are so amazing and are such a beam of light for when I’m not feeling too good about my gender identity and/or expression or my sexuality. When I feel bad because of my family and some bad friends are rude about that sort of thing, or not taking my identification seriously I can always turn to this channel to keep up my confidence a little. I don’t think I’d still be around if it weren’t for you, Thomas and the kind hearted fanders out there being just awesome. Thank you, so much. ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜
