Hi Ava! Great advice for trans youth. I hid being trans for a very long time and didn't have to deal with my parents. My sister just said "oh ok" and was fine with it. Coming out to my wife, well, let's just say my head is still spinning. On another note, I loved your dad impression - I wasn't expecting it and had to pause the video until I stopped laughing! It really took the edge off and made this video much more effective at addressing a serious topic. Much love! 🤗❤💃💞
I wrote my mum a letter and she is super chilled about it all. Im pretty lucky really. My mum just wants the best for me and i love that. Took her a few months to get used to new pronouns but she got there and its like ive always been out lol. I built a whole different scenario up in my head and the reality was much different
Well I came out after my father and I had a Dispute leading to his arrest and me living with my sister now, and his side of the family was told by him after I was outed to him by my Former friend. My moms side is confused but generally supportive. This all has happened in the past months. I live in Small town Oklahoma and it’s hard but I’m getting to love myself sadly I’ve lost a hole side of family but blood doesn’t always mean family.
I was so blessed that my mom and older sister knew, so when I told them it was pretty much an affirmation of what they already had know for a long time.
You're such an inspiration to me ava.... As I've recently came out as trans I've commented on ya post before as mr alcoholic thankyou for youre videos when you tell you're family and partner that you're trans and they helping you transition is an amazing feeling ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thanks for your video! Sometimes I think I'm to old for coming out (23 years) but the most of the time I think I should do it! I will drive to my parents in 2 weeks again and will try to coming out then. I hope all will be good! :)
I told my mom last week and all she could say was “what do you want me to say? It’s your thing”! Then she hung up on me and I haven’t talked to her since. This is ironic because when I came out as gay 15yrs earlier, she was really supportive. Of course I’m old enough to be on my own and be financially secure so I don’t have to worry about getting cut off. She never really wanted me around her much the whole time I was a male and recently moved out of my home state of Ohio to Florida to be as far away as possible to me. So honestly if she hates me for transitioning to female, it’s really no big loss.
I'm scared of pronouns transitioning because in Czech language I also have to say whatever as female (which is different than as male in the language) and I feel like I will have to take time to get used to talking about myself as a girl if that makes sense
@@tomasrohr7417 Moc se ti omlouvám, jsem rád, že si se posunula, očividně tedy pozitivní cestou :), momentálně mi taky probíhá taková fáze pochybnosti , či něco takového.. Respektivně ti držím palce, přeji ti pevné zdraví a moc lásky! Haha, doufám, že to není divný- jen asi předpokládám, čím si taky prožíváš.
@@darkgalore Není třeba se za nic omlouvat 😇 dost jsem nad svojí identitou nejdřív pochybovala, ale to je asi normální pochybovat, když vlastně my - trans lidi, nejsme úplně normální, tak chceme mít jistotu ^^ Díky mooc 💜 Jde mi to dost dobře, okolí mě přijímá a dokonce mám přítelkyni, co to bere 🥰
@@tomasrohr7417 Moc vám přeji! Já jsem ještě ve věku puberty, proto by mě dospělý nebrali vážně, snažím se tedy najít jinou cestu, abych se konečně cítil šťastný. Jsem rád, že se ti daří dobře. :)
Oh hi Ava, wow that was a great video. Very informative and helpful for those of us who are transitioning. You delivered your message so professionally and confidently. I also have transitioned, there are a lot of years difference between us but I am so pleased that you posted this for the younger generation that needed to hear this. Thank you.
How would you even find the confidence to even talk about it, especially to family like for me my mum would be the one who I wasn’t to be the most accepting than any of my family members I feel like my grandparents wouldn’t care too much I know some parts of my dad’s side of the family would be okay with it, like my cousins and possibly my dad’s new wife and her family would be accepting
Hi Ava, nice video and just wanted to let you know, if you didn't, that many companies have guidelines that help trans employees come out on the job, how to communicate to other employees, establish an internal network of allies, go over benefits etc. Most fortune 500 companies have that to maintain their 100% HRC rating.
Please, I need help- I don' really know where to look for to find more information about transitioning. I watched lots of videos here on youtube, but it's not enough. I still don't feel ready to come out to my parents and my family, and I woulf like to have much more informaton than what I have now. This video is helping me to sort other things out and I thank you Ava for this
I know how you feel I remember having those same thoughts and feeling scared too. It's hard but just stay positive and know that things will work out :)
lol i try to put my adams apple up and back but when i start to talk it flops back down again, mind you i only just started this exercise its actually quite fun
I’m transgender and I have some girls clothes and makeup but I’m struggling to come out to my parents they know about the girls clothes I’ve got but just can’t bring myself to show them me dressed as a girl can anyone help me plz
Where were your videos in the nineties? :D Now I feel too old and am too scared to come out I have daily 10-minute flashbacks in which my parents tell me "This is not for boys" My dad once said that if his son was gay, he would no longer consider him his son and I just thought "That´s okay, I feel more like your daughter"
@@phasmanta2825 Really good!! My siblings were all pretty unsurprised bc I'm pretty open with them, and my mom, although not entirely comfortable with it yet, has agreed to let me start HRT, I'm in Canada so that's free, just gotta get on the waiting list first 😔. But overall I don't think it could've gone better for me!
That beginning... WHY my mom is trying to divorce my dad for ME and my brother but mostly ME because he treats me really bad and is abusive to me and my mom and even if I wait till after all this happens and my mom is upset she is gonna be like 😐 “I really worked hard to make these children happy are you kidding me???” She MaY think that but she wants us to be happy but I dunno Also she is fine with gays but don’t like lesbians which I am, until I transition...
For myself. When I was coming out, I started to come out slowly to 1 person at a time and testing the waters to see how the individual feels about the LGBTQ community and seeing do I feel comfortable coming out to the person now or should I wait. I was doing pretty good and feeling good about how I was coming out. Until I had a fellow Trans Woman who just straight up outted me without my consent and I was not ready to fully come out but this Trans Woman just straight outted me. There is nothing worst than being outted by another Trans Woman when they know what that feeling is and to out someone when they are not fully ready is like beating them down. I can say that to this day I still resent the Trans Woman who outted me

The months? I'm not gonna lie, it's seriously ruined me. It's been a good 2 years and a half, and now I'm scared to come out to anyone else >.
Literally tho :/

If there is anyone on here that came out to their parents when they were around 18-25 please comment I would love to chat with you
How long did it take you to grow your chest?
My dad is an old school southern Baptist, he would most likely disown me.
DON'T DO IT
I’m 20 and closeted.. idk if I ever will. Might end it.
Lol
lol i try to put my adams apple up and back but when i start to talk it flops back down again, mind you i only just started this exercise its actually quite fun
2 yrs but I’m in puberty so it would be good now
I’m transgender and I have some girls clothes and makeup but I’m struggling to come out to my parents they know about the girls clothes I’ve got but just can’t bring myself to show them me dressed as a girl can anyone help me plz
Where were your videos in the nineties? :D
Now I feel too old and am too scared to come out
I have daily 10-minute flashbacks in which my parents tell me "This is not for boys"
My dad once said that if his son was gay, he would no longer consider him his son and I just thought "That´s okay, I feel more like your daughter"
That last sentence is really smooth, though.
I'm thinking of coming out in summer since it's all I think about, i just really want to tell them since I hate keeping secrets
This vid was horribly timed for me, I just came out less than an hour before this was released and this would've made it so much easier 😅
How did you do? if you don't mind me asking
@@phasmanta2825 Really good!!

You're beautiful a transgender continue the changes with the woman💖💖❤❤
I know my parents are accepting but i still am scared
I’m male thinking to come out to my parents
Thank youuuuuuu
My parents have already said they don't care what I am they don't want any part of it :/
It takes balls to come out as a trans woman.
I plan on coming out next weekend
F*ck
Howd it go-?? Have you done it yet? :,)
·Royal· Ross·
I got everything ready, I’m staying home from my dads this weekend, cause my brother got sick but next time we go up, I’m doing it
