      Ryan Cassata this is honestly my new favorite song, I remember my dad was the last one in my family to start using he/him pronouns. I relate to this song so much. Thank you for making it. I started honestly crying.

      I came out to my science teacher and he calls me by my preferred name so I'm now Elliot to my class. Sadly I haven't had the courage to come out to the rest of the school because I fear that they will tell my parents who are so homophobic and call me a freak. I just wouldn't know what to do if they found out.

    Edit: my dad thought it would be an innocent day of rainbows for me but when I asked him to take me to the talent show because I was gonna sing, he said yeah. 😂 my uncle who was the emcee there called me Tobias Gamble and my dad was shocked 😂 then I started singing and he started to cry.

    My French professor found one of my Instagrams last year that had my preferred name and pronouns (Nico, he/him they/them she/her I'm genderfluid) and I was terrified simce I go to a Catholic school. Instead, he called me to his office one day and let me talk about everthing do that I could explain. He said that he supports me and that it could be hard to come to terms with such things. Since I wasn't really ready to come out to the class yet, he just began to not use my dead name (it's Nina, if anyone cares) and just kept using gender neutral terms. Once he accidentally called on me using Nico, but he played it off. If he ever dead named me, immediately after class he'd keep apologising.
    I honestly found this do sweet and I'm still so happy that one of my favorite teachers accepts me.

    Edit: I dont know if anyone is going to read this a year later. But he's come around, hes using my name, and pronouns. He's actually accepted me,
    He still messes up sometimes, but he really does see me as his son.

      I'm not having a breakdown right now, but I have had so many. Fighting with my mum for years about wearing boys clothes, cutting my hair, etc. Always being yelled at by her.
      The rest of my family all told me when I came out that they had known for a long time and were waiting for me to be comfortable enough to tell them. My mum told me I was mentally ill and metaphorically slapping her in the face.
      I'm lucky because I do have other family who supports me, and I also live in my own apartment now so my mum cant stop me from transitioning. My heart goes out to all the small ones who dont have the support of their families and have to socially transition in secret, or cant at all, or who are having hormone therapy withheld, or who have been dispossessed over it. If I could take them all in, I would. Every child deserves a loving and accepting family. To all of you commenting and reading this who are afraid to come out to your families, or who have come out and weren't accepted, always know the entire trans community is with you, and you'll never be alone. One day, you WILL have the freedom to live your truest life. 💙💗🤍💗💙

      @@Popplebop @vannpire vidzz in this situation I'd remind her that not all women wear makeup, not all men aren't feminine, flamboyant, OR simply don't love makeup or fashion -- because MANY guys love fashion, art, design, and even makeup (starting from a young age even!). There's many tomboys too. If all of these people exist, it makes sense that you'd also not like dresses on an easier-to-handle level but if that's her gender bias then it makes sense that you're transitioning. I'm a cis female and I've always joked that my mom should have had another daughter :p and my friends often bonded with her over high feminine things. It's not that I'm not feminine, but I wasn't as in to fashion and frills and sequins and sparkles and pink (pink I liked for a short time around 4). I've never cared for jewelry, it annoys me. Many men wear jewelry. I resent makeup but it does look good lol so I'll do it. I'm so lazy about my hair :p. Also here's a website that discusses studies that found that only 0-13% (0 because they don't know everything about the brain) of people have 100%male or female brains -- what I mean by that is the fact that certain parts of the brain are more like to be certain shapes, sizes, or have certain characteristics if the person is male or female.

    I'm a trans boy and I'm currently stuck with an accepting dad but an unsupportive mum. I'm terrified I'm going to cause some major argument between my parents and my dad doesn't called me my preferred name yet due to how my mum would probably react with a mix of sadness and anger.
    He tries to show support when he can though! Even wears a pride ally pin to work and is helping for an LGBTQ+ charity event at the school he works at.

    10 years ago I cut my hair
    And I changed my name as people stared
    And I went on TV and I so did declare
    That this is who I am, for anyone that cares
    I didn’t change who I am
    I’ve always been a man
    Still, it changed your world
    But dad, I’ll always stay your little girl
    10 years ago, I know you had a hard time
    And I tried and tried, cause I want you in my life
    I’m just living true, no doubt in my mind
    And these changes they take time you’ll find
    I didn’t change who I am
    I’ve always been a man
    Still, it changed your world
    But dad, I’ll always stay your little girl
    I know that you accept me as your son
    But that Doesn’t mean your daughter ever did a run
    I’ll always be close to you, no matter what
    I love you and no doors are ever shut
    I didn’t change who I am
    I’ve always been a man
    Still, it changed your world
    But dad, I’ll always stay your little girl
    I didn’t change who I am,
    I’ve always been a man
    Still, it changed your world

      Hey, I’m here for you. I transitioned (came out) at 11 (I knew for like 5 years before I came out ) but thanks fricking everything. My family was ok with it. But I know it’s not like that for everyone. It was hard for me sometimes. but do you know what helps? Talking to people that understand and have been through your situation, and know how it is exactly. So for example, I’m ftm, and one of my cousins also are. And then we started talking, then I found out that there are actually 4 trans men on that side of the family.
      Sooo, I really hope your dad comes around, and I’m sure that if you really explain it and just work with him, he’ll eventually come around to except you. Best of luck. And I’m talking to everyone here who doesn’t have excepting families.

Everyone I've come out to so far has been accepting, but I still need to tell the rest of my dad's side of the family, I haven't yet because I'm closer to them and don't want to lose them, and I don't know their views on it.

      @damiensukulele2834 6 ปีที่แล้ว +25

      Ryan Cassata Well when I came out, I was immediately brought into the lgbtq community, so I started watching stories of people starting T and their transition at around 10 or so. But me being out at a young age actually got me bullied. I used to live a small town when I was a kid and I got harassed and beat up for it. I had to move, and even then I had to go to court cause someone assaulted me when I was 12 for being trans. The bullying actually never stopped. A couple weeks ago I transferred out of my highschool cause I've been getting bullied so much. I guess you just gotta keep your head up though. I actually write songs and play the ukulele and a bit of the guitar. And hopefully one day I can share my story, and create songs like these to help people who are going through rough spots, because I know this song helps me a lot, cause it's so relatable.

Now they only use the name and pronouns I prefer to go by when making fun of me and joking around with me. Thanks to them my new friends know my birth name and I wasn’t the one who told them. I’m planning to come out to the rest of my family this summer so I’ll update this once I do that.

My dad reacted rough, but still never changed the way he looked at me. Half of that was good, but it was also upsetting because he won't respect my pronouns. But he is trying to be more supportive. I'm gonna go through difficulty, and I know that. But this is who I am, and if I am who I am, then I'm willing to fight through any object

    I've told my mom once, "I wanna be a boy." She probably thought I wasn't thinking and said "(my name), Please, dont become a boy. Then you'll have to be gay." At the time I was still confused about my orientation. Now I've understand that I like girls, and it isn't changing. My mother still has no idea. But she's fine with gay,lesbian, trans,etc people. She just doesn't want her child to be homosexual, or LGBTQ. My dad on the other hand, will yell at me if he finds out that I'm planning to become trans when i turn around 16. My sister knows and accepts me. I don't think she needs to accept me, I'll be fine without her.

As if the problem wasn't you being a boy, is that you being a boy *and* having a boyfriend. I know that's not what she meant, but it still cracked me up.
      Time will come and they will accept you. If she's fine with the LGBTQ community, then I see hope in her. Eventually, she'll get used to the idea of you being you and not the person she thinks you should be.
