Can we talk about how this was filmed at a Catholic school because it implies that maybe this school isn't so against the idea of other genders and sexualities, makes me happy.
We don't agree with the lifestyle, but we don't treat people like jerks for having that lifestyle. Edit: yeah you don't have to mention it, i realized, error in my words.
@@Noahed_ Sadly as a Catholic myself there aren't many who are chill with these people, most are jerks when it comes to the topic of lgbtq+ but I'm glad you aren't one of them.
“What about intersex people?” “Didn’t you hear her? They don’t exist.” *what am I? A roach?* I mean, she’s one to talk. Her name is Dominique. I’m pretty sure that’s a gender neutral name
Sorry , but I think you mean gender neutral. There's no such thing as a non-binary name unless you are referring to a non-binary person's name maybe. Anyways , I'm a girl on a family member's account and bye Felicia (lol).

The ending hit so hard whenever the teacher crossed out Jillian and out ash. It brought me to tears!! Then I absolutely felt the "what's the point in being myself if it makes me want to f^cking die." It has proven so true whenever I didn't have a strong community to back me up and I felt like I was alone.
Indeed, i learnt this in neurolingüística programming that life is the road and how we approach it is the map, sometimes all it takes is to navigate with a different map one that is updated in our needs, sometimes we are given this map by our parents it worked for them but we have other needs.

@rudolfshitler no there really isn't and before you say "it's basic biology" yeah maybe you should learn some more advanced biology because the biology your probably basing this off you learned when you were 14/15 and your high school teacher only had 8 months to teach it too you so obviously they had to simplify it and they over simplified it to the point where it is incorrect
The worst part is that it's completely wrong, singular they/them is an actual thing 😭 Istg these transphobes are so dumb, i am not a native english speaker and even i know that singular they/them is a thing

I ended up crying cuz the way hey described how "she/her" pronouns felt like a punch, while "he/him" felt like another person entirely is exactly how it feels for me.
me too. i don’t know why i feel this way and the worst part is everyone just believes it’s some made up thing but there’s science behind it. my mom called me, “girly” today and it literally made me feel so sick. i don’t know why i feel this way and i really wish i didn’t

"it's just a phase" "get over yourself" "it's because of that damn phone" I get told that quite often, I put it aside I am a bisexual non-binary person. This film has helped myself find my true self thank you.
I was a cis guy on the train wearing a pink watch. Child their mom "Why does the man have a girl's watch?" Mom was like "It's his watch, he bought it." Child replies "So can I have a pink watch too?"
I cried my eyes out as a non-binary person, so I can put myself in their shoes. I still remember my exit. It's been almost 3 years since I realized I'm non-binary, but the world is still cruel. Every day on the internet or in real life people bully me because of my non-binary nature but I'm not going to change and it's not just a phase, I can be whoever I want and no amount of death threats will change that. love yourself always and no matter how hard it is to be yourself. I love you always :3
I'm not even trans or non-binary, or genderfluid. I know that I'm a girl and I'm ok with that. But I just really hate my name, especially when ppl say: Adoni is such a beautiful name! But like no, I hate it. Its just too unique for me. That's why when I'm older I'm probably just gonna be preferred as my nickname, cocoa, or my other nickname cece. I don't even understand why I hate it so much but I just do.
Honestly, the part where the teacher let Charlotte change her name to Charlie but didn’t let Juliana change their name to Ash wasn’t fair. Ash literally had to go to write an entire script just to be accepted. edit: GUYS I AM SO SORRY I WROTE THIS ONE YEAR AGO AND I JUST NOW REALISED MY SHE/HER USAGE ON ASH. I'LL EDIT THAT RIGHT NOW
@@geometrydashpro4209 THEY didn't change to a man. They were always nonbinary. They once believed they were female. They were never a guy. But now they know that they're nonbinary.
School office doesn't care about the students' feelings, but if you defend them or yourself, they intervene. Just like when Charlie refuted Dominique at the poem scene.
School guidance sucks. They don’t care until you’re grades start slipping then they’re like “we noticed you haven’t been doing the best” like were all of the other signs not enough?
I treat everyone with respect that they deserve, whether they’re different or not, and if I met someone that goes by the pronouns they/them, I’ll respect that! It’s not fair that society criticizes someone for being different.
"I'm not trapped in a body I hate Just wrapped in words that don't relate to the way my skin feels on my bones" Just beautiful and hella relatable. Thanks for doing this 😊

i can relate to their poem so much. it hurts when people call me by she/her pronouns. but my friends accepted me and call me by they/them. when my friends accidently call me by she/her, they immediately correct themselves and apologize.
When she said "It hurts me to see you hurt" my instant thought of a reaction was "Then stop hurting me." Edit- I know she didn't know about it, relax with the replies I'm not stupid. That's just what I thought of when I heard it.
@American Empire ... Oh great another uneducated bitch. Is it that hard for you to learn that gender is a social construct, and that there's more than just two? Shut up and go learn some stuff, then come back and apologize
@American Empire uhm no. These labels help people who fit outside of societal norms and expectations, they were made and changed to help people find themselves and their community.

Your name is Ash and whatever else you want to identify with!! Anyone who tells you different is wrong and doesn't deserve your time. You are so loved and valid!!!!!
@@rutherfardcareelium Yeah but at the end of the day you just want to be accepted by your parents. It’s seen as more of an excuse to not accept your kids than a way of showing you “care” in the end, your kids will still want to be referred to as whatever and no matter what kids get teased (no matter gender, sexuality, appearance, name) so why not just accept your kids and help them through their troubles?
As a non binary person myself, I’m really proud of Ash reading the poem aloud, and not caring what other people thought, because, I would never have that courage !
As a Non Binary, I live with parents who dont really believe or support about this type of stuff. I'm so glad to know I'm not crazy into believing that this is what I idenify with. I almost cried happy tears. Thank you so much for creating this, I feel so alive. This comment might get buried, but if someone reads this, I hope you have a great life.
i understand your feeling. i hope that you and every genderqueer and non binary person are able to live freely and happily without judgement of people scared of (not-so) new ideas and changes in the way life goes on. i hope you have a great life too :)
in my school we have to do feminism, except its not feminism its the school reminding us we are all afabs who cant change ourselves (grammar school) and to kill all men.
When Dominique said “Tr*ni” I got really frustrated even though this is just acting. Trani is a slur and shouldn’t be used as a way to shorten anything. Again I now this is just acting and it’s incredible.
...both this comment and the word Trani irritates me (not towards you! I just can't express what bugs me so much). Why would be that a slur lmao. I know, that it isn't anyone's fault but people got triggered when i said trans person. Like wtf am i supposed to call you lmao, am i supposed "Transgendered human being"? I feel like there has to be some type of shortcut to the word. Anyways thanks for reading my little rant about slurs. This isnt onto anyone specific, have a nice day
"I'm not traped in a body I hate. Just wrapped in words that don't relate to the way my skin feels on my bones" This is so accurate. I can't believe they found a way to express this feeling into words. Everytime I hear them say those words I get goosebumps.
This is me. All the time. I'm genderfluid. My brother tells me to change my body so he feels more natural (btw, he keeps saying it's for me, I know otherwise), and I keep explaining that it isn't necessary, and if anything I'd be the same as I am now.
@@rubybeard6406 You and your feeling are 100% valid. Don't let your brother pressure you into taking actions you are not comfortable with. Listen to your heart not to toxic people, even if it is hard. I'm with you. Stay strong and stay proud.
I’m not trans, demi, or anything like that. But I don’t understand why people make fun of you guys! If you want to be a guy, be a guy. My dad called people who identify as they/them “it” and I really don’t understand why. You do you!
@EmmyLu it isn’t up to you to decide what’s right or wrong with somebody, they can figure that out themselves. They shouldn’t be defined by some chemicals in their body.
@@emmylu4016 i see someone forgot that it’s 2020 and it doesn’t matter what someone identifies as. if someone, for example probably a lot of people in these comments, wants to use they/them pronouns in any way, shape, or form, they are allowed to. it doesn’t matter what you think. this isn’t something that you can have opinions on this is someone’s entire identity, someone’s entire life. why should they feel bad for themselves because you don’t “agree” with how they feel comfortable? just say you’re transphobic and move along.
I’m a born woman, I’m still a woman, I don’t get why people are homophobic. And another thing I don’t understand is that from what I have seen online, some LGBTQ+ people are making one of the biggest deals about their pronouns and things like that, not to mention, if I say that I do not care about LGBTQ+ people I am going to get attacked, which has happened. Now I don’t mean that in a bad way, I mean it as in I do not care if you are LGBTQ+, I’m not going to treat you any differently, not better and not worse. However, do not expect me to wear anything about pride because I am not comfortable to do so, and do not expect me to get your pronouns right the first time I meet you, I will refer to you as what I think you are if you do not tell me straight away, do not get angry if I do so. My friend is trans, they’re one of my closest friends
I told my mum I was non binary and that I was getting harassed by more then half the guys and girls in my year. She immediately disregarded that I was being harassed and said "I'm a pretty girl and that guys are going to flirt with me" Yeah _parent of the year over here_
@@ChaosCrystalArtist I’m so sorry, I hope your mom accepts that you are who you want to be and I hope she helps you feel more comfortable for being yourself, I’m proud of you
This was so relatable I cried my eyes out watching it. I’m not non-binary, but I’m gender fluid, and it’s really hard to fit in with that identity. In my old school I was constantly bullied because of it. I had supportive friends thankfully, but very few. I moved this year and I’ve been hiding it for a while. Only two people I really trust know about it. I honestly don’t want it to get out as it could cause more problems, but at the same time it’s torture trying to keep it in. I love how Ash was so confident and was able to speak their mind in front of their class. I for one could never. I just wish transphobic and homophobic people didn’t exist, or at least just kept to themselves instead of feeling the need to tell us how they feel about us. This was really beautiful, and I loved every second of it. Thank you so much for this, it really made my day.
“You hear her, they don’t exist” When I tell you I died at this sentence XD It’s a very clear thing and there’s literally scientific evidence of intersex people’s existences but people I know irl still deny it The representation and real world problems in this are so accurate, keep it up
Every time I heard someone or herself calling "she" "Im a girl" I felt a pinch in my heart... I go by she/they for now...Im not 100% sure what am I so I kinda know how it feels to be lost whenever I question myself/ my gender... Thank you for making this video.
I go by She/They too. I'm currently fixated on it and identifying as a bisexual demigirl but you know, we'll find our identities. We'll find it at different times, but we'll be there. Just be yourself.
I'm not 100% sure what I am, too. I don't like 'her' or 'him' or 'them', it doesn't feel right. The voices in my head tell me it's just a phase, and I'm being weird, or it's just because I've seen and read stuff, not because I'm confused and this is generally what I feel. I'm not even 14 yet and I'm confused, is it ok?
I go also as she/ they with my friends but my family calls me by she/her all the time. My older sister supports lgbtq+ and she’s trying really hard to talk to me with she/they pronounce and I’m really happy about it. That felt good tiler out.
the way that charlie kept calling them ash and using they/them pronouns on them made me wish i had a friend like charlie. & the fact the teacher crossed out julianas name to change it to ash made me cry.
I watched this as a 10 year old kid and thought “it’s simple. Just pick one”. I was raised in such a homophobic household, but when my best friend said they had a crush on me, and that they were gay, things changed in my mindset. I questioned everything my family said, but also was programmed to believe everything they said, I was so conflicted. Until now, when I realized how toxic my family was, through mental and (rarely) physical abuse, it finally clicked that I can choose what I believe, and if I just become what my parents believe, I would have to live a complete lie, and wouldn’t be able to be my own person. 3 years from the last time I watched this, I have now decided I’m a bisexual *person*, who doesn’t have to live in the confines of gender unless I feel it’s true to me that day. This video and it’s title has been engraved in my mind for those 3 years, and will be forever remembered until I die. Thank you for helping mine and so many others’ journeys.
Sorry, but that isn't healthy. You got influenced by lgbtq just bc you can. This is what people should be warned about. You shouldn't be able to 'choose' your sexuality. Society has become a disgrace and now there are younger individuals thinking they want to be bi or change their gender just to fit it. Why can't people see how wrong that is?
I'm so glad to hear you could escape such a harmful environment and that the community was able to help you on your journey to self discovery. I hope you have a wonderful day and rest of your life. -Love, an ADHD NPC on a gender identity quest.

Great job❤❤❤!!!!!
hi my pronouns are they them
Only thing you could have added was "I'm a girl, but I am not. Am I a man or am I not. Either way, dominique's a thot" /j
Funny thing: Dominique, the bullie' s name, is actually gender neutral in french, and mostly assigned to men
How the turntables bish

congratulations, you played yourself

Ash: " *unintelligible salty sounds* "
Charlie: **confused screaming**
that is so true-
this is soo trueeee
I love ur name- probably because imma oikawa stan tho-
Lol 😂
ash sounds like sheys turning into ash
The poem:
I'm a girl, or maybe I'm not.
The first time I breathed in that thought I was far too old to be redefining myself, so I coughed it out like a stale cigarette after a long night of bad decisions, looked at my reflection and told myself, "You're wrong."
That night I put on the shortest skirt I had and went out dancing.
'til I realised I was only skirting around my deepest fears.
You see, every time someone calls me "she", my stomach turns and my skin feels thick, like someone raised a panic alarm in my brain.
And with every "her" that gets hurled my way, I get turned around.
I'm not lost, just never seemed to have the right map.
But see, I'm not trapped in a body I hate.
Just wrapped in words that don't relate to the way my skin feels on my bones.
Or the way that I only feel like home, when no one knows what exactly it is I am, so...
Maybe I'm a man.
Except I don't think that's right.
There's never been a fight like bar brawls through my veins telling myself that I need to change.
"Him"...feels like synonymous with someone else.
"He", a chorus unto itself.
And "his" just fits too loosely.
So, maybe I'm not.
Either, I mean.
I go online to see, "do you realise no one's buying this?"
Do you realise, I'm not selling myself short anymore?
'cause for the first time I opened up the door to possibility of being myself,
I found a treasure map I left for myself back when I was a kid.
When the only thing I was scared of losing was my sense of self.
You see, I never thought we were speaking the same language until someone said "they" instead.
So tell me I'm wrong, tell me I'm broken, tell me I must hate myself to be the way I am.
And I will tell you I never knew what it was like to fly until I let myself breathe in.
I finally found my map, you know, X marks the spot.
Thanks :)

Why?
*”anybody have a map” intensifies *
Indeed, i learnt this in neurolingüística programming that life is the road and how we approach it is the map, sometimes all it takes is to navigate with a different map one that is updated in our needs, sometimes we are given this map by our parents it worked for them but we have other needs.

Ashes poem:
"I'm a girl, or maybe I'm not.
The first time i breathed in that thought I was far too old to be redefining myself,
so I coughed it out like a stale cigarette after a long night of bad decisions.
I looked at my reflection and told myself,
'You're wrong.'
That night I put on the shortest skirt I had and went out dancing, until I realized I was only skirting around my deepest fears.
You see, every time someone calls me 'she,' my stomach turs and my skin feels thick
like someone raised a panic alarm in my brain,
and with every 'her' that gets hurled my way, i get turned around.
I'm not lost, just never seemed to have the right map.
But see, I'm not trapped in a body i hate,
just wrapped in words that don't relate to the way my skin feels on my bones,
or the way that i only feel like home,
when no one knows what exactly i am so...
Maybe i am a man.
except I don't think that's right.
There has never been a fight like bar brawls through my veins telling me I need to change.
'him' feels like synonymous with someone else,
'he' a chorus unto itself,
and 'he' just fits too loosely.
so maybe I'm not... either, I mean
I go online to see "do you realize no one is buying this?"
Do you realize I'm not selling myself short anymore?
Because for the first time I have opened up the door to the possibility of being myself.
I found a treasure map that I made for myself when i was a kid, when the only thing I was scared of losing was my sense of self.
You see, i never thought we were speaking the same language until someone said
'they' instead.
So tell me I'm wrong, tell me I'm broken, tell me i must hate myself so much to be the way i am.
And i will tell you I never knew what it was to fly until i let myself breathe in.
I finally found a map, you know?
Like X-marks the spot."
Every line in the poem has a meaning, and it wouldn't be complete without the line.
edit: holy shit thx for the likes lol

amazing respond ✋🏼
But you can't stay a child forever!
@@Gaia_Seraphina Then they had a person.
When Dominique said “Tr*ni” I got really frustrated even though this is just acting. Trani is a slur and shouldn’t be used as a way to shorten anything. Again I now this is just acting and it’s incredible.
I would imagine gaugeing one of their eyes out if they did that in real life😳😥😅but y know- can't do that
I was aggravated by that too. I hate slurs in general.
@@rubybeard6406 me too! it really irritates me
What's T? I didn't know the slur
Edit for fixing the slur. I am sorry.
...both this comment and the word Trani irritates me (not towards you! I just can't express what bugs me so much). Why would be that a slur lmao. I know, that it isn't anyone's fault but people got triggered when i said trans person. Like wtf am i supposed to call you lmao, am i supposed "Transgendered human being"? I feel like there has to be some type of shortcut to the word. Anyways thanks for reading my little rant about slurs. This isnt onto anyone specific, have a nice day
As a Non-binary person this hit SO FUCKING HARD! I relate to this so much
"I'm not traped in a body I hate. Just wrapped in words that don't relate to the way my skin feels on my bones" This is so accurate. I can't believe they found a way to express this feeling into words. Everytime I hear them say those words I get goosebumps.
This is me. All the time. I'm genderfluid. My brother tells me to change my body so he feels more natural (btw, he keeps saying it's for me, I know otherwise), and I keep explaining that it isn't necessary, and if anything I'd be the same as I am now.
@@rubybeard6406 hey, take care. hope ur brother stops being an asshole real soon:)
@@rubybeard6406 You and your feeling are 100% valid. Don't let your brother pressure you into taking actions you are not comfortable with. Listen to your heart not to toxic people, even if it is hard. I'm with you. Stay strong and stay proud.
@@juliagilewska8354 he's not an asshole, he's just a little box-minded. Don't worry, he's improving, however slowly that may be.

Underrated comment!
@Florence Jowers i did, i always have captions on xD
I’m not trans, demi, or anything like that. But I don’t understand why people make fun of you guys! If you want to be a guy, be a guy. My dad called people who identify as they/them “it” and I really don’t understand why. You do you!
It’s really demeaning unless they ask people to refer to them as “it” yikes
@EmmyLu it isn’t up to you to decide what’s right or wrong with somebody, they can figure that out themselves. They shouldn’t be defined by some chemicals in their body.
@@emmylu4016 i see someone forgot that it’s 2020 and it doesn’t matter what someone identifies as. if someone, for example probably a lot of people in these comments, wants to use they/them pronouns in any way, shape, or form, they are allowed to. it doesn’t matter what you think. this isn’t something that you can have opinions on this is someone’s entire identity, someone’s entire life. why should they feel bad for themselves because you don’t “agree” with how they feel comfortable? just say you’re transphobic and move along.
@@lolasanchez5622 it isn't up to you to decide your gender as well.
@@siddharthabhimanyu9667 you suck
I’m a born woman, I’m still a woman, I don’t get why people are homophobic. And another thing I don’t understand is that from what I have seen online, some LGBTQ+ people are making one of the biggest deals about their pronouns and things like that, not to mention, if I say that I do not care about LGBTQ+ people I am going to get attacked, which has happened. Now I don’t mean that in a bad way, I mean it as in I do not care if you are LGBTQ+, I’m not going to treat you any differently, not better and not worse. However, do not expect me to wear anything about pride because I am not comfortable to do so, and do not expect me to get your pronouns right the first time I meet you, I will refer to you as what I think you are if you do not tell me straight away, do not get angry if I do so. My friend is trans, they’re one of my closest friends
Everytime they said “I’m a girl” it really did feel like a punch to the gut...

I told my mum I was non binary and that I was getting harassed by more then half the guys and girls in my year.
She immediately disregarded that I was being harassed and said "I'm a pretty girl and that guys are going to flirt with me"

This was so relatable I cried my eyes out watching it. I’m not non-binary, but I’m gender fluid, and it’s really hard to fit in with that identity. In my old school I was constantly bullied because of it. I had supportive friends thankfully, but very few. I moved this year and I’ve been hiding it for a while. Only two people I really trust know about it. I honestly don’t want it to get out as it could cause more problems, but at the same time it’s torture trying to keep it in. I love how Ash was so confident and was able to speak their mind in front of their class. I for one could never. I just wish transphobic and homophobic people didn’t exist, or at least just kept to themselves instead of feeling the need to tell us how they feel about us. This was really beautiful, and I loved every second of it. Thank you so much for this, it really made my day.
Gender fluid people are nonbinary!
“You hear her, they don’t exist”
When I tell you I died at this sentence XD
It’s a very clear thing and there’s literally scientific evidence of intersex people’s existences but people I know irl still deny it

Every time I heard someone or herself calling "she" "Im a girl"
I felt a pinch in my heart...
I go by she/they for now...Im not 100% sure what am I so I kinda know how it feels to be lost whenever I question myself/ my gender...
Thank you for making this video.
I go by She/They too. I'm currently fixated on it and identifying as a bisexual demigirl but you know, we'll find our identities. We'll find it at different times, but we'll be there. Just be yourself.
I'm not 100% sure what I am, too. I don't like 'her' or 'him' or 'them', it doesn't feel right. The voices in my head tell me it's just a phase, and I'm being weird, or it's just because I've seen and read stuff, not because I'm confused and this is generally what I feel.
I'm not even 14 yet and I'm confused, is it ok?
@@leaiga-riverhills7674 It's completely fine! Who told you that you can't figure yourself out at a young age? I hope you find your identity.
I go by he/him I'm a trans guy but the only people I told was addison and brooke
I go also as she/ they with my friends but my family calls me by she/her all the time. My older sister supports lgbtq+ and she’s trying really hard to talk to me with she/they pronounce and I’m really happy about it. That felt good tiler out.
As a closeted they/them with un-supportive parents. Thank you

I watched this as a 10 year old kid and thought “it’s simple. Just pick one”. I was raised in such a homophobic household, but when my best friend said they had a crush on me, and that they were gay, things changed in my mindset. I questioned everything my family said, but also was programmed to believe everything they said, I was so conflicted. Until now, when I realized how toxic my family was, through mental and (rarely) physical abuse, it finally clicked that I can choose what I believe, and if I just become what my parents believe, I would have to live a complete lie, and wouldn’t be able to be my own person.
3 years from the last time I watched this, I have now decided I’m a bisexual *person*, who doesn’t have to live in the confines of gender unless I feel it’s true to me that day. This video and it’s title has been engraved in my mind for those 3 years, and will be forever remembered until I die.
Thank you for helping mine and so many others’ journeys.
There are only two genders: girls and boys. Don't try to be stupid!
Sorry, but that isn't healthy. You got influenced by lgbtq just bc you can. This is what people should be warned about. You shouldn't be able to 'choose' your sexuality. Society has become a disgrace and now there are younger individuals thinking they want to be bi or change their gender just to fit it. Why can't people see how wrong that is?
@@AbbyBolt_10people dont do that to fit in, they do it to be more comfortable with themselves
I'm so glad to hear you could escape such a harmful environment and that the community was able to help you on your journey to self discovery. I hope you have a wonderful day and rest of your life.

Same though. My mom always looks through any of my sketch books I have. She's cool with whatever I draw, but it feels like a total invasion of privacy.
