Yes, my family would slap me the whole way to Asia where I would be slapped back to my house. No but like actually they would tell me "your a girl and you'll LIKE it" lol
I want people to know that before someone transitions, it typically takes at least 2 years minimum (maybe longer in some states and countries) of therapy and lots of discussion with professionals and many doctors to realize if it’s the right choice. Please stop having the mindset that people just wake up and randomly decide their changing their gender.
That's not true my friends child starting hormones a month after saying they were trans.I believe people should be who they are but I think a child should wait till they are older because you change so much as you age
@@stephduddy3619 did they start hormones or puberty blockers (although both can be reversed fyi) and how do you know they weren't working with professionals before coming out to you? maybe they had been going to therapy for a long time and were about to start transition so they told you, so you'd know
@@annie6756 It's not "out of order". The body is just a vessel for the brain, and "who we are and how we see ourselves" is an entirely different thing than the physical development / deterioration of the body. Think about that for a second. It will start to make sense why puberty is such an awful thing for someone who is trans.
Hahahaha they are not mini adluts. They are children with under developed emotional, mental and discerning capabilities. That is not to say they arent unique individuals but they are developing unique individuals.

Given the fact that I was 11 when I first started to learn about me being a trans girl, but being too scared to accept it for myself in any true way until I was 18, it is very interesting to watch this. I desperately wish I could’ve grown up in an environment where I could be free to express myself. Sadly, I wasn’t though. Living as myself at this age would’ve been my dream. I did show signs as a younger child, but I was not really allowed to publicly show them.
This is how I was, I remember praying to God every night to give me the right parts. I never knew the terms or that hormones even existed but I knew that I was different. I am so grateful kids have this information now and can be who they truly are. Also, disregard the troll, these bigots cannot truly appreciate all of God's creation.
A lot of people don’t seem to understand that the symptoms of this condition can become apparent from as young as 3. Putting your child on Puberty Blockers before Puberty hits if they display symptoms of this condition is the right thing to do. It will lessen the chances of suicide and the development of severe G/SD [Gender/Sex Dysphoria], as well as lessening the chances of developing the common comorbidities, such as Depression and Anxiety Disorders.
A girl brain and a girl heart. What does that even mean? Can a boy not also be sensitive and compassionate, grow their hair long and play with dolls? Can a girl not climb trees and play rough? We define gender tighter than when I grew up in the 70s.
Girl brain is like thicker corpus collosum, thicker anterior collosum, size ratio of amygdala to hypothalamus consistent with female gender... "Girl heart" is just metaphorical and about subjective feelings
A TRUTH BOMB: Westernized civilization, like America, is greedy enough to capitalize on the trans movement and tell you the lie that you’re born in the wrong body and that mother nature made a mistake but in reality, science and biology don’t make mistakes when you’re born a boy or a girl, and no matter how delusional and brainwashed someone gets, they are still what they were born as. If you’re a feminine man or a masculine woman so what… but we should all learn to love the body that we were born into because we’re all lucky to be alive, God dammit; people don’t have enough gratitude or appreciation for just how amazing their body is, and if you listen to the music and watch Disney movies in America, then you’re going to be given the red Kool-Aid that doesn’t lead to happiness, but instead a lie for others (doctors) to capitalize on.
I want to see her again at 18. Puberty has not even hit yet. Ive heard stories by guys who felt like this but then later on they were glad they didnt transition because they wanted to stay guys when they got older.
I feel like 11 year olds, no matter how mature they are, shouldn’t be making a big decision like that. It’s okay for them to ask to be referred to as a girl if they truly feel female but I don’t think they should alter their bodies yet (like hormones or surgery). There’s too many kids (and adults) who transition and regret it later in life. Sometimes it’s really hard for people detransition and it puts them in a horrible mental state I hope the girls in this video are truly happy with being female later in life. They seem like smart kids, I just really hope that don’t make an irreversible decision they’ll regret
When I was 11 I didn't want kids, when I was 20 I didn't want kids, when I was 30 I was dying to have a baby. Funny how things can change. Things can change for these kids too. I hope they are mature enough to realize that some of their decisions are permanent, and they may regret them the rest of their life.
Being trans is way different than making the decision of having children. Especially when symptoms are shown this young they most likley won't ever change. I will say though that hormone therapy should be 18+ and so a surjury but for surjury I do recommend waiting after 25 to make a final decision. There probably going to be put on hormone blockers which are very easily reversible. -from a trans man

@@thethethe7892 you didn't know because no one said it but now we're connected and people are more aware of the existence of gender dysphoria. You could apply that to anything that wasn't in the news during your childhood. They teach the word pronoun in elementary school English though. And you have to view things you don't understand from the perspective that's actually involved. Kids and parents often know by age 3 or 4 that they're different. Ignoring the dysphoria wouldn't make sense.
@@thethethe7892 Yes they are all being brainwashed even though they are constantly inundated with the cisnormative culture they decided otherwise. Just like the gays right?

@Lydian R your speaking the truth and nothing else less. Too much hate in the world in general and on the trans group and I'll shame anyone who tells them that they can't be that way.
You don’t need expensive surgeries or hormones. Being beautiful is being who u are without that stuff. You are a marginalized group with a dollar sign on your head
Me too. I support trans people although I'm aware some homosexual people get a wrong idea about themeselves and think they are transgender. It's a very sensitive and prickly issue.
I'd wish someone would've been for me as a child and told me that I'm not disgusting or weird. It's heartwarming to see there are parents who are so supportive.
the phandøm phamily with a løve for drama thanks for the support ! I just don’t get why people have to hate on everything . It’s her choice to be transgender not theirs.
HappyCheese I really agree! The kids should be allowed to be themselves and experiment, so many people. Are just saying that because they're kids they aren't allowed to choose.
When I was 5-13 I mostly had male friends, wore boy clothing, played with boy toys and even had an alternative name I went by. But I grew out of it. Now that I am a grown adult I still have more male interests other than who I am attracted too. I also have 2 kids
@@nebulonicc That's usually what trans people point as the evidence they were "in the wrong body" all along. It's based on sexist stereotypes and not reality. The reality is there is no such thing as a trans child. Parents are doing this to their children.
Hahaha y’all, Lily has her own mind and speaks her own truth. Unfortunately, some people don’t believe a child can be given the freedom to do so. Scary And what does being fat have to do with anything? I’m thin now and am still an awesome mom whose child is happy and loves to talk to me and spend time with me. If that’s weird to you, I’m sorry for your kids
If “Truly” was truly a non bias channel they would document videos of de-transitioners as well, I feel like their voices need to be heard too, there’s a tremendous amount of negative backlash and judgement from a certain community for those people who do not necessarily want to say anything negative about transitioning but simply want to encourage proper evaluation. But Truly will never go against its own agenda.
OH BROTHER! Heres another possible reason why..... Detransition is more common in the earlier stages of transition, particularly before surgeries. It is estimated that the number of detransitioners ranges from less than one percent to as many as five percent.
Coming from a trans man, I feel bad for de-transitioners. They truly aren't heard enough, and a lot of people think that it's shinning a bad light on the trans community when it's not.

@@hi78889some people have hormones before 18 because they're parents don't know. Watch documents about detransitioners who got hormones way too early and regret it.
I’m female and when I was a kid I loved to dress in boys clothing, play with action figures and toy swords, dress up as a knight, etc. Eventually grew out of it, and now I’m super girly. Parents should be careful allowing kids to make such important decisions that have permanent consequences based on what could have been a temporary phase. Edit: I understand being a tom boy and transgender are different. I’m just pointing out the changes we go through in life, so I’m saying be careful and take some time to really consider before making such drastically permanent decisions.
How is being a tomboy the same as being trans? You are conflating gender expression (masculinity and femininity) and gender identity (female, male and other). Being trans is more than how you behave and dress.
I was a tomboy, loved short hair and “boy stuff” as a child and I’m SOO happy I’m a woman and didn’t transition. You are WAY too young to make those decisions . Kids minds change all the time God please protect these children.
@@odessawales ok but kids are WAY tooo young to make these decisions. Have you watched any de-transitioning videos? The people who regret transitioning because they were too young to make That decision.
Presenting as the gender you identify with is perfectly fine. It was never implied that these girls were taking hormones. I agree that hormone therapy is a very important decision that should be waited on until a certain age, but there is nothing wrong with the narrative of the video.
Kuba Marcin There have always been transgender people through history, and sadly many of them just committed suicide because there was no option to be one self. Look at the current state of things a progress! www.cbc.ca/doczone/m/features/timeline-transgender-through-history
As a 30+ yrs trans i dream to be able to return to my 11 and have a possibility to transition at that age. Due to family/close relatives where all this was prohibited and the society where it was condemned, the resulting consequences like a training programme what I should do to fit the role i must live according to assigned gender was really huge challenge
Emma Planas “so what you are saying” one of the most idiotic ways to start off your argument/disagreement don’t try to put what his saying in your own words by summarizing it into what you think his saying it’s a emotional based response and most people who have studied debate and communication realize how uneducated people are who start of there disagreements with that
@Emma Planas until you as a human being, suffer, life's will, is aiming a response. Which won't be as nice as you define it. These kids think that because they play with dolls, they are to consider themselves girls.
As someone who started talking about being a boy at six and started considering surgery at 11-12, it warms my heart to see other trans kids getting so much love and support.
You could turn these comments into lyrics _When i was 11 i was shaving all my barbies hair bald_ _When I was 11 I thought I was pregnant because I hugged my best friend_ _When I was 11 I was begging my dad for a membership on club penguin_ _When I was 11 I was 11..._
I completely support them. I do agree they should wait until they're older to COMPLETELY transition, but you should at least let them wear skirts, have long hair, etc. 💖
In almost all cases transgender teens are only given puberty blocker medications, to delay puberty until they are at least 18, at which point, they can choose to take exogenous hormones or stop taking the blockers so their endogenous hormones can kick in. Taking puberty blockers gives kids a few extra years before the irreversible changes of puberty take place. For a trans child who grows up to be a trans adult, taking blockers can save a lot of stress and pain, because many changes of puberty are irreversible or require risky intervention to modify later in life.
When i was 11 i wanted to be a boy but now i am in puberty and i dont want to be a boy. So be sure in what you want and dont make important choices that young.
I agree I feel like I should be able to wear what they want and have there hair the way they want but it could just be a temporary thing in no way shape or form I have anything against trans people I support them but I feel and it is something very big I think they should wait until they're older to make a big decision
@@panic2063 I think it's a sensible idea to transition before or during your puberty. If I had a time machine I would go back in time and get Hormone Blockers right away.
I did not understand and i am the kind of person to always want to be supportive and accepting. I know now though. What i learned in a philosophy class in university helped me figure it out. Thinking about it using logic: At the age of 12 (Or however old as a kid) did you "finally" know who you were? Have it all figured out pertaining to "who you were meant to be"? No child knows that, transgender or not. We seem to think the same rules don't apply to transgender children and that's crazy. Another point: All transgender people describe this feeling of not liking a part of themselves - even hating it. They describe this DEEP dissatisfaction within themselves. Since when is it physiologically healthy to change something on the OUTSIDE and expect it to change who you are on the INSIDE. From a psychology standpoint (which is my background) that method won't work and will only lead to deeper dissatisfaction and also a sense of hopelessness on top of that. This leads me to my next and final point: When a person, for whatever reason, WILLINGLY decides to cut off or surgically (or horomonally) ulter a PERFECTLY HEALTHY AND FUNCTIONAL part of their body in hopes that it will make them feel better on the inside, that is no longer simply ineffective but has now become a very mentally unstable thing to do. People usually only consider surgically or horomonally altering their bodies as a LAST RESORT when faced with a serious illness. As you can see i have thought about this extensively and deeply in a caring and logical way. I DO believe these people FEEL the need to change their gender. However i believe that doing so will only further harm and confuse them. The issues that need to be addressed here are Mental and not physical. There are also issues with "transitioning" as people report always feeling "different" than natural born people of the gender they transitioned to. They STILL report feeling uncomfortable in their own bodies for that reason. They can also experience something called "Gender Disphoria" where they are disasociatrd from their bodies. This is classified as a mental illness. There is so much more i can say but basically when you get down to the root cause of it it all stems from the mentality. Therefore to treat something with a PHYSICAL treatment when the root cause is Mental does not make logical sense and will Never be effective. There are videos on TH-cam about "De- transitioning" where older people who have undergone transgender procedures are now in regret saying it did not help them and only made there issues worse and more confusing. I'll try to comment a link here. I hope that had helped you. As a professional working in the social service feild i Do Not Have any hatred towards people who feel out of place in their sex. I simply want to HELP in the most effective way possible. I hope this helped you to at least consider the possibility of what i have learned. 🌅😄 I want to help make the planet a happier and healthier place for people to live in ♥
@@alexlg9521 Alex LG as a man that has completed my transition many years ago, I know that the majority of this is wrong. There isn't a sense of dissatisfaction after hormones and surgeries, instead I'm completely comfortable and proud of who I am. I'm no longer disgusted with my body. With that in mind, Gender Dysphoria is definitely a mental illness, that I agree with. And the people who rush into it quickly are more likely to detransition because they've not taken the necessary precautions to ensure that what they are doing is correct. Nowadays that's even more comman due to the suddenly hype over gender. But before I was even allowed to transition I was given years worth of intensive psychology help before my doctors came to the conclusion that I was transgender. Physical and chemical treatment was not my first form of treatment.
They are extremely fortunate to have been able to transition so early. If you're trans, the absolute worst thing that can happen is have puberty strike first. It just makes everything so much more difficult if that happens.
I wish I had such a confidence all my entire life to say: “This is who I am, respect me. If you don’t like it, go over there.” I am not a transgender, I just never felt like I really deserve nice treatment. Times are changing. It’s good. I was just a child and everyone was saying me to stay calm and follow the rules of my house. Adults had all the rights.
Literally it's actually not that hard to figure out when from a young age you have media not because it influences you because it educates you on terms that you might be so you do research and stuff and take time to think and figure out.
@d bYou also can't make someone Transgender That's something someone must find on there own. These "influences" you say can't make a child Transgender but they can make them feel more positive and more open about themselves. So what your saying sounds pretty ignorant and discriminating.
d b It’s not an adult choice that they’re making. Currently, they’ve only socially transitioned, meaning they have time to change their mind. They aren’t getting surgery or anything. They’re just using different names and pronouns. If they decide later that they were wrong, then it doesn’t change anything because they never did anything medically.
@@Lawful_Rebel When I was 11 I didn't know what transgender was and I was extremely fearful and shameful about who I am... I wish I knew about being transgender like these 11 year olds. Puberty was rough and I wouldn't come out for another 12 years.
@@hq4287 Aren't you happy that kids today are given the information they needed to find out who they are? So that they could feel safe about knowing their true selves? Isn't that what we're to work towards?
I think the parents did a good job there, being that open, that the children trust them, to come out, and and also letting them know that early (maybe even unaware) that they can do this.
@@Bobbeld when they are in puberty, they probably already know their gender, and yes, I think it's ok for them, ito take hormone blockers, if they don't feel comfortable with their biological gender.

I don’t get it. I played football with the boys and was into cars and other toys made for boys. I didn’t like shopping, makeup, or playing dress up and even wondered what it was like to be a boy. It was just a phase, though. I’m glad my parents weren’t crazy like this.
@@hi78889 i think your question is important, but far more important thing is; if she/this person felt herself as woman after the age of 16 and now, because i hear people who had confusion as a child and adolescence but then integrate good into their biological gender.

allow them to transition. but wait for surgery or estrogen supplements until they are fifteen- because their bodies can’t handle it at such a young age
I don’t know why people think they’re performing surgery and giving hormones to children. THEY ARENT. u have to be 18 to get surgery and they don’t do anything involving hormones until the child is just starting their biological puberty. Then they give them blockers. Which r completely reversible. And then they end up going through puberty later than most kids around 14-15.
Alana COLLINS yes, a deadname is what lots of trans people call their old name that they were born with and had before they transitioned. some keep the old name too but lots of people change it or go by a different name that makes them feel more comfortable
@@afrobabyentertainment458 I am a woman and I am always happy to welcome a new sister. It's an insult to women you are not accepting all of them equally. Go somewhere else with your transphobic comments and leave these kids alone
i think that children should be able to socially transition at any age and present as whichever gender they want but they should wait until at least 17/18 to start a medical transition to stop them from making bed decisions and having to detransition
The suicide rate is 50% for trans people including kids if you made all trans kids transition medically at 17/18 who knows how high that number would get
By the time puberty has run its course, the kids' bodies will be irreversibly altered. Believe it or not, most regular boys don't want to be a girl by the time they're in middle school. Personally, I only realized my situation and started to medically transition at age 17, and I wish I'd had the resources and acceptance before puberty that these kids do. If I'd known back then, and was allowed to go through the puberty of the correct gender, I wouldn't hate the body and face I have today. I'm slowly fixing the damage done to my body because of testosterone, but there's certain things I'll never be able to reverse with hormone therapy. I hope you change your mind on this issue, because I never want any of these children to have to go through the same pain I have. Knowing that I might never be seen as a girl in the eyes of society, and that I could potentially be murdered, or have my basic human rights taken away at any moment. The world today is not safe for trans people, and this kind of gatekeeping in the healthcare system is a massive part of the problem.
Standard practice is puberty blockers as they start puberty (10-12) which just delay puberty until they are ready, and hormones at 16 or older but sometimes younger depending on the case. Surgery is typically saved until they are 18+ Most credible doctors take all aspects of the case into account in helping people transition or not
Now that I think about it, almost everyone and anyone in the LGBTQ+ community or with a disorder (or anything that sets them apart from the rest) has a higher risk of being bullied or talked about, in the negative way.
I don’t why people find it so hard to believe that three girls with similar life experiences are friends?? Like I’m trans and like 5 of my friends are also trans
Everyone say a lot of things... But when I was 6 I wanted to be a dancer, when I was 11 I wanted to be a dancer. I'm 22 and I want to be a dancer, but my parents though that was just a childish dream, and I didn't get the support when I was younger so that I could become a professional dancer. Sometimes you have to trust your children (and specialists if needed) and give them the best chance to be what they want/need to be.
Damn that sucks. Why not take some classes now? I mean, it's never too late to do anything. If that's your dream then go for it! :) (What my mother taught me )
I hope you achieve what you've always wanted. I wanted to dance too, but my parents didn't take it seriously. However, career choices and changing your gender are two different things.
all these people bein like “when i was 11 i wanted to be a fridge” ok great thats cool i wish i knew myself this well when i was 11 so i couldve socially transitioned sooner

Given the fact that I was 11 when I first started to learn about me being a trans girl, but being too scared to accept it for myself in any true way until I was 18, it is very interesting to watch this. I desperately wish I could’ve grown up in an environment where I could be free to express myself. Sadly, I wasn’t though. Living as myself at this age would’ve been my dream. I did show signs as a younger child, but I was not really allowed to publicly show them.
Lol you're a dude
@@drhtldr1587 no I'm not
@@weatheronthe8s895 lol yes you are. denial doesn't alter reality.
This is how I was, I remember praying to God every night to give me the right parts. I never knew the terms or that hormones even existed but I knew that I was different. I am so grateful kids have this information now and can be who they truly are. Also, disregard the troll, these bigots cannot truly appreciate all of God's creation.
A lot of people don’t seem to understand that the symptoms of this condition can become apparent from as young as 3.
Putting your child on Puberty Blockers before Puberty hits if they display symptoms of this condition is the right thing to do. It will lessen the chances of suicide and the development of severe G/SD [Gender/Sex Dysphoria], as well as lessening the chances of developing the common comorbidities, such as Depression and Anxiety Disorders.

A girl brain and a girl heart. What does that even mean? Can a boy not also be sensitive and compassionate, grow their hair long and play with dolls? Can a girl not climb trees and play rough? We define gender tighter than when I grew up in the 70s.
Yes they can do those things. But gender roles or stereotypes are not the same as gender identity.
Girl brain is like thicker corpus collosum, thicker anterior collosum, size ratio of amygdala to hypothalamus consistent with female gender...
"Girl heart" is just metaphorical and about subjective feelings
@@Susanmugennot all of us, especially us with apd no, not "girl heart" what an insufferable term.
Well, she also gets gender dysphoria. Did you research that? (just out of curiosity, as I learned quite a bit and was surprised by what I learned)
A TRUTH BOMB:
Westernized civilization, like America, is greedy enough to capitalize on the trans movement and tell you the lie that you’re born in the wrong body and that mother nature made a mistake but in reality, science and biology don’t make mistakes when you’re born a boy or a girl, and no matter how delusional and brainwashed someone gets, they are still what they were born as. If you’re a feminine man or a masculine woman so what… but we should all learn to love the body that we were born into because we’re all lucky to be alive, God dammit; people don’t have enough gratitude or appreciation for just how amazing their body is, and if you listen to the music and watch Disney movies in America, then you’re going to be given the red Kool-Aid that doesn’t lead to happiness, but instead a lie for others (doctors) to capitalize on.

Thats why hormone blockers are important. They don't give estrogen or testosterone until at least 14, usually later. Often not til 18
I think the hormones they will take will actually block their puberty..
It's no longer listed in the DSM.

Now I think it's great and so do alot of kids
I feel like 11 year olds, no matter how mature they are, shouldn’t be making a big decision like that. It’s okay for them to ask to be referred to as a girl if they truly feel female but I don’t think they should alter their bodies yet (like hormones or surgery). There’s too many kids (and adults) who transition and regret it later in life. Sometimes it’s really hard for people detransition and it puts them in a horrible mental state
I hope the girls in this video are truly happy with being female later in life. They seem like smart kids, I just really hope that don’t make an irreversible decision they’ll regret
@@khkayla6575 I respect ur opinion

When I was 11 I didn't want kids, when I was 20 I didn't want kids, when I was 30 I was dying to have a baby. Funny how things can change. Things can change for these kids too. I hope they are mature enough to realize that some of their decisions are permanent, and they may regret them the rest of their life.
Exactly me too I'm now 33 and dying for a child and through my 20s I couldn't care less
SRS regret rate is 2%. Less than breast implants.
Children are absolutely amazing!
The thing is. They aren't mature enough to realize that some of their decisions are permanent.
Being trans is way different than making the decision of having children. Especially when symptoms are shown this young they most likley won't ever change. I will say though that hormone therapy should be 18+ and so a surjury but for surjury I do recommend waiting after 25 to make a final decision. There probably going to be put on hormone blockers which are very easily reversible. -from a trans man

If “Truly” was truly a non bias channel they would document videos of de-transitioners as well, I feel like their voices need to be heard too, there’s a tremendous amount of negative backlash and judgement from a certain community for those people who do not necessarily want to say anything negative about transitioning but simply want to encourage proper evaluation. But Truly will never go against its own agenda.
they talk about trans people, not non-trans people. It's very reasonable.
OH BROTHER! Heres another possible reason why.....
Detransition is more common in the earlier stages of transition, particularly before surgeries. It is estimated that the number of detransitioners ranges from less than one percent to as many as five percent.
Coming from a trans man, I feel bad for de-transitioners. They truly aren't heard enough, and a lot of people think that it's shinning a bad light on the trans community when it's not.

You can't get hormones until you're 18, so they would definitely know the effects. This comment makes no sense.

I’m female and when I was a kid I loved to dress in boys clothing, play with action figures and toy swords, dress up as a knight, etc. Eventually grew out of it, and now I’m super girly. Parents should be careful allowing kids to make such important decisions that have permanent consequences based on what could have been a temporary phase.
Edit: I understand being a tom boy and transgender are different. I’m just pointing out the changes we go through in life, so I’m saying be careful and take some time to really consider before making such drastically permanent decisions.
How is being a tomboy the same as being trans? You are conflating gender expression (masculinity and femininity) and gender identity (female, male and other). Being trans is more than how you behave and dress.

They're probably just on hormone blockers so that the girls have tim to decide what they want before anything irreversible happens

Love your PFP lmao.
In almost all cases transgender teens are only given puberty blocker medications, to delay puberty until they are at least 18, at which point, they can choose to take exogenous hormones or stop taking the blockers so their endogenous hormones can kick in. Taking puberty blockers gives kids a few extra years before the irreversible changes of puberty take place. For a trans child who grows up to be a trans adult, taking blockers can save a lot of stress and pain, because many changes of puberty are irreversible or require risky intervention to modify later in life.

Beautifully African it wasn’t a joke.
It's interesting how much people rely on "feelings".
Let's fight mental illness together.
NO NO NO NO NO NO LGBTQ+ PRIDE
I did not understand and i am the kind of person to always want to be supportive and accepting. I know now though. What i learned in a philosophy class in university helped me figure it out. Thinking about it using logic: At the age of 12 (Or however old as a kid) did you "finally" know who you were? Have it all figured out pertaining to "who you were meant to be"? No child knows that, transgender or not. We seem to think the same rules don't apply to transgender children and that's crazy.
Another point: All transgender people describe this feeling of not liking a part of themselves - even hating it. They describe this DEEP dissatisfaction within themselves. Since when is it physiologically healthy to change something on the OUTSIDE and expect it to change who you are on the INSIDE. From a psychology standpoint (which is my background) that method won't work and will only lead to deeper dissatisfaction and also a sense of hopelessness on top of that. This leads me to my next and final point:
When a person, for whatever reason, WILLINGLY decides to cut off or surgically (or horomonally) ulter a PERFECTLY HEALTHY AND FUNCTIONAL part of their body in hopes that it will make them feel better on the inside, that is no longer simply ineffective but has now become a very mentally unstable thing to do.
People usually only consider surgically or horomonally altering their bodies as a LAST RESORT when faced with a serious illness.
As you can see i have thought about this extensively and deeply in a caring and logical way. I DO believe these people FEEL the need to change their gender. However i believe that doing so will only further harm and confuse them. The issues that need to be addressed here are Mental and not physical.
There are also issues with "transitioning" as people report always feeling "different" than natural born people of the gender they transitioned to. They STILL report feeling uncomfortable in their own bodies for that reason. They can also experience something called "Gender Disphoria" where they are disasociatrd from their bodies. This is classified as a mental illness.
There is so much more i can say but basically when you get down to the root cause of it it all stems from the mentality. Therefore to treat something with a PHYSICAL treatment when the root cause is Mental does not make logical sense and will Never be effective.
There are videos on TH-cam about "De- transitioning" where older people who have undergone transgender procedures are now in regret saying it did not help them and only made there issues worse and more confusing. I'll try to comment a link here.
I hope that had helped you. As a professional working in the social service feild i Do Not Have any hatred towards people who feel out of place in their sex. I simply want to HELP in the most effective way possible. I hope this helped you to at least consider the possibility of what i have learned. 🌅😄 I want to help make the planet a happier and healthier place for people to live in ♥
Alex LG I really appreciate this reply. Thank you for articulating my thoughts so beautifully in ways I wasn’t sure how to
@@alexlg9521 Alex LG as a man that has completed my transition many years ago, I know that the majority of this is wrong. There isn't a sense of dissatisfaction after hormones and surgeries, instead I'm completely comfortable and proud of who I am. I'm no longer disgusted with my body.
With that in mind, Gender Dysphoria is definitely a mental illness, that I agree with. And the people who rush into it quickly are more likely to detransition because they've not taken the necessary precautions to ensure that what they are doing is correct. Nowadays that's even more comman due to the suddenly hype over gender.
But before I was even allowed to transition I was given years worth of intensive psychology help before my doctors came to the conclusion that I was transgender. Physical and chemical treatment was not my first form of treatment.
They are extremely fortunate to have been able to transition so early. If you're trans, the absolute worst thing that can happen is have puberty strike first. It just makes everything so much more difficult if that happens.

I’m sorry :( that sucks.
I wish I had such a confidence all my entire life to say: “This is who I am, respect me. If you don’t like it, go over there.” I am not a transgender, I just never felt like I really deserve nice treatment. Times are changing. It’s good. I was just a child and everyone was saying me to stay calm and follow the rules of my house. Adults had all the rights.
Literally it's actually not that hard to figure out when from a young age you have media not because it influences you because it educates you on terms that you might be so you do research and stuff and take time to think and figure out.
Well not as hard when we didn't have media to educate us on terms
@d bYou also can't make someone Transgender That's something someone must find on there own. These "influences" you say can't make a child Transgender but they can make them feel more positive and more open about themselves. So what your saying sounds pretty ignorant and discriminating.
d b It’s not an adult choice that they’re making. Currently, they’ve only socially transitioned, meaning they have time to change their mind. They aren’t getting surgery or anything. They’re just using different names and pronouns. If they decide later that they were wrong, then it doesn’t change anything because they never did anything medically.
Ok you guys have to realize kids aren't stupid they know and understand stuff if they feel comfortable in their bodies is most important

Do we, do we really? Thanks for your sage advice.
@@Lawful_Rebel When I was 11 I didn't know what transgender was and I was extremely fearful and shameful about who I am... I wish I knew about being transgender like these 11 year olds. Puberty was rough and I wouldn't come out for another 12 years.
I am a kid
THANK YOU
@@hq4287 Aren't you happy that kids today are given the information they needed to find out who they are? So that they could feel safe about knowing their true selves? Isn't that what we're to work towards?
I think the parents did a good job there, being that open, that the children trust them, to come out, and and also letting them know that early (maybe even unaware) that they can do this.
its good for kids to take hormone blockers?
@@Bobbeld when they are in puberty, they probably already know their gender, and yes, I think it's ok for them, ito take hormone blockers, if they don't feel comfortable with their biological gender.

If the kids are happy that’s fantastic and if there parents are happy and keep them safe that’s fantastic.
If the kids are happy, that's all that matters? Wow, when I was 11 I would have been happy as a clam to eat nothing but chocolate ice cream. Are you serious? These are little children who have not even reached puberty. The are NOT being kept "safe"... they are little kids playing dress up and the parents are negligent to be encouraging them to think anything else. Lots of little girls don't want to play with dolls...that doesn't mean they are boys. Jeezus, will people please stop being stupid.
Rashone amen buddy
@@rashone2879 So true. But everyone wants to be so politically correct, so much with the "in crowd" or what they think is the "in thing", that they can't see how they are literally destroying the children. Absolute foolishness. It's not ignorance, it's foolish.
And if the suicide rate is over 40% that's also fantastic?
If killing people makes you happy are you still going to encourage that
I don’t get it. I played football with the boys and was into cars and other toys made for boys. I didn’t like shopping, makeup, or playing dress up and even wondered what it was like to be a boy. It was just a phase, though. I’m glad my parents weren’t crazy like this.
So you were or/and are attracted to men? I wonder it
@@sorgulayanyolcu2443 i am very attracted to men
But did you belive you were a boy? Your completely avoiding that question. Being trans has nothing to do with interests.
@@hi78889 i think your question is important, but far more important thing is; if she/this person felt herself as woman after the age of 16 and now, because i hear people who had confusion as a child and adolescence but then integrate good into their biological gender.
@@hi78889 hell no but i wanted to be one. I didn’t think there was a possibility because my parents didn’t feed me a twisted mantra of being able to choose your gender. If they did I wonder if I could’ve bought into that as an immature little kid.

The "Nobody: " meme almost never makes sense. It was initially meant as a joke about someone saying or doing something completely unexpected and out of nowhere, but in this case it makes _tons of sense_ that people would be talking about what they did at 11 given the topic of the video, and literally *_tons of people_* are commenting about it which is the _complete opposite_ of "Nobody"

@@nightynightshade When I was a kid i used to dress up in my mother's wigs all the time. I guess that made me a girl, ppl nowadays would say I was a girl at heart and say I need to transition. I'm a proud Male today. It goes both ways.
Whatever 😩
Mia phoenix, you offended? 🥴
yes 🏳️🌈
allow them to transition. but wait for surgery or estrogen supplements until they are fifteen- because their bodies can’t handle it at such a young age
i make memes using imovie i completely agree
100% agree
I 100% agree
I don’t know why people think they’re performing surgery and giving hormones to children. THEY ARENT. u have to be 18 to get surgery and they don’t do anything involving hormones until the child is just starting their biological puberty. Then they give them blockers. Which r completely reversible. And then they end up going through puberty later than most kids around 14-15.
Fifteen? Seems like an odd age, I’d personally go with 21. But yeah, get what you’re saying and I agree.

Who else thinks these are the sweetest girls ever and would gladly be their friend?
I feel sorry for Lily, she is very insecure about her deadname and her mom just THROWS it at the camera.
Alana COLLINS yes, a deadname is what lots of trans people call their old name that they were born with and had before they transitioned. some keep the old name too but lots of people change it or go by a different name that makes them feel more comfortable
Why you calling... him a her ...you realize this is a insult to women right ....so sick
Afro Baby Entertainment damn dude who hurt you. let the 10 year old live however they want to. none of this affects your life... WHATSOEVER.
@@afrobabyentertainment458 I am a woman and I am always happy to welcome a new sister. It's an insult to women you are not accepting all of them equally. Go somewhere else with your transphobic comments and leave these kids alone
Afro Baby Entertainment Says you.
i think that children should be able to socially transition at any age and present as whichever gender they want but they should wait until at least 17/18 to start a medical transition to stop them from making bed decisions and having to detransition
That's how I feel too.
i’m pretty sure that you have to be at least 16/17 to start hormones anyway
The suicide rate is 50% for trans people including kids if you made all trans kids transition medically at 17/18 who knows how high that number would get
By the time puberty has run its course, the kids' bodies will be irreversibly altered. Believe it or not, most regular boys don't want to be a girl by the time they're in middle school. Personally, I only realized my situation and started to medically transition at age 17, and I wish I'd had the resources and acceptance before puberty that these kids do. If I'd known back then, and was allowed to go through the puberty of the correct gender, I wouldn't hate the body and face I have today. I'm slowly fixing the damage done to my body because of testosterone, but there's certain things I'll never be able to reverse with hormone therapy.
I hope you change your mind on this issue, because I never want any of these children to have to go through the same pain I have. Knowing that I might never be seen as a girl in the eyes of society, and that I could potentially be murdered, or have my basic human rights taken away at any moment. The world today is not safe for trans people, and this kind of gatekeeping in the healthcare system is a massive part of the problem.
Standard practice is puberty blockers as they start puberty (10-12) which just delay puberty until they are ready, and hormones at 16 or older but sometimes younger depending on the case. Surgery is typically saved until they are 18+ Most credible doctors take all aspects of the case into account in helping people transition or not
Now that I think about it, almost everyone and anyone in the LGBTQ+ community or with a disorder (or anything that sets them apart from the rest) has a higher risk of being bullied or talked about, in the negative way.

Imagine having parents that support your decision and don't tell you your too young to know how you feel

I can't tell if you're being supportive or hateful
That must be great...
Imagine having parents so ignorant they would let their child ruin its life in the pursuit of being "supportive".
Imagine being adult and committing suicide because your idiot parents allowed you to make life changing decisions you can't change

But when I was 6 I wanted to be a dancer, when I was 11 I wanted to be a dancer.
I'm 22 and I want to be a dancer, but my parents though that was just a childish dream, and I didn't get the support when I was younger so that I could become a professional dancer.
Sometimes you have to trust your children (and specialists if needed) and give them the best chance to be what they want/need to be.
Thank you.
