Im a Pakistani born and raised guy. This documentary is both sad and equally positive, in that coming across transgender people in day to day life is a norm for most urban Pakistanis, as generally the community is openly welcomed at weddings and equally found on streets shopping and getting on with life. Attitudes will surely change with normalisation of the community taking up more responsible and professional roles. There is now likes of Dr Meerub and others who are well educated, articulate professionals braving their way into spheres once considered untouchable for the rest of the transgender or even LGBTQ community. Eventually, we all need to love and respect other human beings for just that fact, regardless of their gender or personal life choices.
the problem with other gays is when you acknowledge them, they ask for more. to the point that they go beyond the boundaries. just look how most of the eastern and western lgbt acts today.
@adibmahmood8618 yk what? i am not religious but have utter respect for all religions out there but yours. your religions forbids love between same gender while making marital rape legal. i have nothing more to say because you'll end up getting offended. besides i don't give 1 f*ck as to how many genders there are. those genders you're talking about have come into existence after 2000s while being gay has been a thing since humanity came into existence. you can't tell the difference between love and lust and i pity you for that. NO OFFENCE, but over 450+ species display homosexual tendencies (which is natural and not man-made btw) but oh here we have adib from pakistan or whatever calling it unnatural because he holds personal biases against gay people. you men are so blinded by hatred that your religion preaches that you have forgotten what it means to be human.

I also struggle as a TransWomen living in USA. I grew up in Muslim community and that was even harder. So I left Muslim community, and adopted Hindu practice, and I have at least some respect from Hindus in America, but even the Christian people, as well as secular people, cause discrimination for my kind.
As a human being they do deserve equal rights of social security without any doubt. transgenders are very talented and have more potential to build great social change. I salute you DW to film this issue.
I was assigned human at birth, but I feel like a bird. I put on feathers and a beak. I'm not a human: I am a transpecies bird. Why do people discriminate us transpecies birds?
This documentary talks about transgender people but we only get to meet transgender women. Where do trans men exist here? Do they have a voice? Are they more worried about money, harassment etc? Or are they able to blend into the background more easily? I’d be very interested to learn more.
Parents are more tolerant for trans 'daughters' and the society treats cross dressing women better so they are able to express themselves without being disowned and telling the world they are trans they can just cut their hair short and cross dress and live their life as another Pakistani would. (some parents might marry them off thinking that would fix their dysphoria tho)
From everything that I have seen , Pakistan is such a beautiful country ! I never imagined how beautiful the country really is . I hope that the country will start to accept and to treat the trans community better . Love from America
We are not oppressed here in the states. The west should look into stories like these instead of creating mountains out of mole hills. These women are so brave 💖
Very interesting documentary. Thanks for the insights! I really wonder, how one can dislike this video. Right now it has 3064 likes and 3040 dislikes... crazy!
Hey Moritz! Danke, dass du dir die Doku angeschaut hast. Wieso sehe ich die Dislikes nicht? Werden bei mir nicht angezeigt. Aber ja, das Thema ist sehr umstritten. Viele Menschen sind gegen Transpersonen - besonders in einem konservativen Land wie Pakistan. Liebe Grüße!
It got dislikes because this documentary is making them victims and trying to make the God fearing people to humanize with these alphabet thugs. Just like in the west especially the U.S once they get power and they will try to silence the majority and enforce their lgbt agenda on us. Unacceptable!!
One thing that's wild on TH-cam is if there's a video about a trans person suffering, all the comments are positive and see their humanity. If it's a video about a trans person thriving and standing in their power, all the comments are negative and dehumanizing.
As a Muslim man, it just show how some men in Islam are hypocrites. Citing the Qur'an and all, but will be the first to jump even on transwomen just to relieve them of their worldy needs. Sorry, not sorry.

At 12????...when some of the children are having trouble with basic math, english and or geography. That should be left for the parents if they want to teach there children that. If a very young child can't vote, drive or even have a bank account or even serve in the military ...the government should not push this down they're throat til they are mature enough to make that decision on there own. That they say its ok for them to mutilate there bodies and find out later they made a mistake. It always seems to surprise me, that if trans are mislabeled...how easy the Testosterone comes out in anger.
God created Man and Woman, and only God can break that brokenness, the Lord Jesus Christ is the true God and no Man will ever be free from gender dysphoria if the person does not put Christ in His Heart and accept Him as the true savior. The Lord Jesus Christ said, Matthew 11:28-30 " Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in Heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light."
It's incredible how progressive and understanding the Pakistani people are, meanwhile in the west we're legislating transgender people out of existence. What an amazing video! And an amazing people!
Right? It pains me that ppl think Pakistan is a hostile place for anyone who isn't a "straight male" yeah a lot of it stems from boomers and their conservatism it's something that will take years to die just as it did in the west at same time tho Pakistan is way more progressive than some western countries its straight up legal to be trans and have no gender identity on passports and stuff.
i feel so sorry for these women, the dserve to be treated as a human, all because there trans dont make thme less valuable if not there stronger than the average man there.

I love how she said “from victim to protector”. Almost all cultures throughout history had people that didn’t fit into the two box categories. Live and let live. ❤
While it is difficult to determine the extent to which this occurs, it is possible that some individuals in Pakistan might identify as transgender to pursue same-sex relationships without facing the legal consequences of engaging in homosexual acts. Given the more accepting environment and legal protections for transgender individuals compared to those for homosexuals, it could be seen as a safer option.
It probably doesn't occur often, as you would have to literally live your life as a woman, at least in public, to accomplish that. And for the vast majority of people, that would go against their gender identity. So while I am sure some small percentage might be able to do that, I highly doubt any significant number of cis men are pretending to be trans to marry their lover.

Doctor here. Please understand that intersex people (ambiguous genitilia since birth) and transgender people (the ones who convert from their biological gender to the other one) are different. At least reputed channels like DW can provide this clarity. May both of these groups find love and peace.
These people are actually brave. I wouldnt risk my life for the person I think I'm inside.
This is sad but what about all the women of Pakistan who don't have a whole lot of rights.
Was that a picture of u in lübeck ?
I am a Pakistani woman what sought of rights are you exactly talking about?we get education we can do jobs whatever we like if you are talking about wearing bikini I don't consider that as freedom eventhough I don't wear hijab I still don't consider wearing less clothes is considered freedom

I respect them but I don't support them at all cost..
Why should I respect a man who doesn't respect women and treats womanhood like a costume he can wear?
As a Sikh I believe in equality to all beings. Nobody has the right answer why they born or feel this way so we have to accept them. Ofcourse spirituality helps overcome lustful behavior regardless of homosexuality or heterosexual. God help us all 🙏

@@glennsriyousefbaun-cueto9287 How you can say mashaallah to accepting homosexuality? Relax brother as God has spoken against this look at the time of Lut. May god guide us brother.
Depends on how you define acceptance and judgment. We are not obligated to accept their delusion that they can be another sex. We can freely judge this.
They deserve respect as human being but we do not have to affirm their mental problem.
@@fifiadan bro u didn’t understand what I meant to say about discrimination against homosexuals not in favor of homosexuals acts .

Being a transgender in Pakistan takes some balls.
🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️ Even here in Holland, people often discriminate someone, who's different and who's against conservative ideas. I know, I'm a childfree person. I never wanted a family, and I decided to be childfree, when I was a teenager myself, and after many years it didn't change, of course. I don't care, but some native Dutch people continue being angry about me. F*** all haters. Your life - your choice!
I get most confused when others say folks like you are selfish for not wanting kids. Especially when it’s coming from a parent who just wants a grand baby
@@babs_babs Exactly
Pakistan is a hard place to live regardless
My heart breaks for them. I know their pain because I am a transwoman. I have seen the best and worst of people.
My friend is trans, and I fear for their life every day. All they bring to this world is joy, but people want to hurt them? It hurts me that people are so hateful.
@CJ You know what the help is? It's gender transitioning. 98% of transgender people who transition are happy.
@@bluelight2681 That's absolutely not true. Rates of suicide skyrocket after transitioning.

Blessings for all these people in the documentary
Im a Pakistani born and raised guy. This documentary is both sad and equally positive, in that coming across transgender people in day to day life is a norm for most urban Pakistanis, as generally the community is openly welcomed at weddings and equally found on streets shopping and getting on with life. Attitudes will surely change with normalisation of the community taking up more responsible and professional roles. There is now likes of Dr Meerub and others who are well educated, articulate professionals braving their way into spheres once considered untouchable for the rest of the transgender or even LGBTQ community.
Eventually, we all need to love and respect other human beings for just that fact, regardless of their gender or personal life choices.
Well said thank you. I was worried to visit Pakistan as a trans woman
And still Pakistani hate dr mehrub
the problem with other gays is when you acknowledge them, they ask for more. to the point that they go beyond the boundaries. just look how most of the eastern and western lgbt acts today.
get educated dude being gay and transgender are two DIFFERENNT terms with no connection at all
@adibmahmood8618 yk what? i am not religious but have utter respect for all religions out there but yours. your religions forbids love between same gender while making marital rape legal. i have nothing more to say because you'll end up getting offended. besides i don't give 1 f*ck as to how many genders there are. those genders you're talking about have come into existence after 2000s while being gay has been a thing since humanity came into existence. you can't tell the difference between love and lust and i pity you for that. NO OFFENCE, but over 450+ species display homosexual tendencies (which is natural and not man-made btw) but oh here we have adib from pakistan or whatever calling it unnatural because he holds personal biases against gay people. you men are so blinded by hatred that your religion preaches that you have forgotten what it means to be human.
But u can’t be a women .. a women is a female adult. You are men identify as a woman .
But that doesn’t mean you deserve to be beaten or ridiculed.
Wrong.
The important thing is respecting their body's choice you can be against it but accepting their existance
They CAN be women but not real women. People should accept the true but they don’t want to accept that because it’s hurt to hear the truth.

Accepting what God has forbid is what has made them so publicly bold faced, that behavior is based on a lie and deception , and that infects the minds of the innocent and impressionable .
That has been man's history ......and then we wonder why God set standards.
When is enough enough ?
And based on whose ideals ?
When having relations with animals starts getting the same attention will your views be the same ?
Should people who identify as vegetables and animals get the same rights ?

I also struggle as a TransWomen living in USA. I grew up in Muslim community and that was even harder. So I left Muslim community, and adopted Hindu practice, and I have at least some respect from Hindus in America, but even the Christian people, as well as secular people, cause discrimination for my kind.
How are you struggling in the US?
@@ShakeDownStreet0714Are you serious? Have you seen your country?

As a human being they do deserve equal rights of social security without any doubt. transgenders are very talented and have more potential to build great social change. I salute you DW to film this issue.
I was assigned human at birth, but I feel like a bird. I put on feathers and a beak. I'm not a human: I am a transpecies bird. Why do people discriminate us transpecies birds?

What i dont like is a trans man fighting real women with the strength of a man then wants to be treated like a woman... crazy world
In western world but not in Asia
This documentary talks about transgender people but we only get to meet transgender women. Where do trans men exist here? Do they have a voice? Are they more worried about money, harassment etc? Or are they able to blend into the background more easily? I’d be very interested to learn more.
Parents are more tolerant for trans 'daughters' and the society treats cross dressing women better so they are able to express themselves without being disowned and telling the world they are trans they can just cut their hair short and cross dress and live their life as another Pakistani would. (some parents might marry them off thinking that would fix their dysphoria tho)
They have to hide more
From everything that I have seen , Pakistan is such a beautiful country ! I never imagined how beautiful the country really is . I hope that the country will start to accept and to treat the trans community better . Love from America
Before arrival of colonial powers, trans people were highly respected in Pakistan as Sufi saints then colonials criminalized them
We are not oppressed here in the states. The west should look into stories like these instead of creating mountains out of mole hills. These women are so brave 💖
Very interesting documentary. Thanks for the insights!
I really wonder, how one can dislike this video. Right now it has 3064 likes and 3040 dislikes... crazy!
Hey Moritz! Danke, dass du dir die Doku angeschaut hast. Wieso sehe ich die Dislikes nicht? Werden bei mir nicht angezeigt. Aber ja, das Thema ist sehr umstritten. Viele Menschen sind gegen Transpersonen - besonders in einem konservativen Land wie Pakistan. Liebe Grüße!
It got dislikes because this documentary is making them victims and trying to make the God fearing people to humanize with these alphabet thugs. Just like in the west especially the U.S once they get power and they will try to silence the majority and enforce their lgbt agenda on us. Unacceptable!!
This was really really sad. But I think, not only transgenders are struggling in that country at the moment 😢

As a Muslim man, it just show how some men in Islam are hypocrites. Citing the Qur'an and all, but will be the first to jump even on transwomen just to relieve them of their worldy needs. Sorry, not sorry.

if the trans community didn't believe in what they were, why do we have to believe in what they are.
The Return Of The Gods" by Johnathan Cahn. Please, I highly recommend you go pick up this book. It will help you to understand where all this "transformation" came from and where it's going.
You don't have to believe in it. Nobody can force you. Transgender are still human beings.
@@johnnyearp52 I really dont care what they do...I just believe that my daughter of 12 has it push down there throat in school that the girls in her class are say its cool to be a lesbian. At 12????...when some of the children are having trouble with basic math, english and or geography. That should be left for the parents if they want to teach there children that. If a very young child can't vote, drive or even have a bank account or even serve in the military ...the government should not push this down they're throat til they are mature enough to make that decision on there own. That they say its ok for them to mutilate there bodies and find out later they made a mistake. It always seems to surprise me, that if trans are mislabeled...how easy the Testosterone comes out in anger.
God created Man and Woman, and only God can break that brokenness, the Lord Jesus Christ is the true God and no Man will ever be free from gender dysphoria if the person does not put Christ in His Heart and accept Him as the true savior. The Lord Jesus Christ said,
Matthew 11:28-30
" Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in Heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light."
God created Eve as a transgender Clone. He used a male rib.
I truly wish we would all just be treated like human beings. Not because of our race, sexuality, gender ect . Treated right because we are humans.
It's incredible how progressive and understanding the Pakistani people are, meanwhile in the west we're legislating transgender people out of existence. What an amazing video! And an amazing people!
Right? It pains me that ppl think Pakistan is a hostile place for anyone who isn't a "straight male" yeah a lot of it stems from boomers and their conservatism it's something that will take years to die just as it did in the west at same time tho Pakistan is way more progressive than some western countries its straight up legal to be trans and have no gender identity on passports and stuff.

Why to blame Pakistan.. I think this community face challenges in every country.
While it is difficult to determine the extent to which this occurs, it is possible that some individuals in Pakistan might identify as transgender to pursue same-sex relationships without facing the legal consequences of engaging in homosexual acts. Given the more accepting environment and legal protections for transgender individuals compared to those for homosexuals, it could be seen as a safer option.
It probably doesn't occur often, as you would have to literally live your life as a woman, at least in public, to accomplish that. And for the vast majority of people, that would go against their gender identity. So while I am sure some small percentage might be able to do that, I highly doubt any significant number of cis men are pretending to be trans to marry their lover.
