    I was baptized and became a Christian as a baby, but it made me a target of Satan. Satan tried to destroy me all of my life but by the grace of God, I managed to survive. As a child, I was neglected, sexually abused by caregivers, physically and mentally abused by my parents and other family members. I can get depressed from time to time, but Jesus has filled me with such love for my own family and for all people. I can even forgive people who hurt me. It has taken me decades, but it is possible with God's help to be healed.

    Wow. So glad for you. Came across this by chance and feel very moved by the progress of your personal journey, having watched some of your earlier videos as Maya. This is the outcome I'd always hoped for you.
    As a retired therapist I am so dismayed by the way my former profession has abandoned its responsibilty to help all clients to explore themselves, including those suffering gender dysphoria. By the way they've caved to gender ideology instead of practising exploratory psychotherapy. It feels like a betrayal of ourselves and our profession.
    I used to live in Oxfordshire and I loved the poem too.
    A person's hands are so expressive of them. You have beautiful, strong male hands whatever happened to the rest of you. You can always raise your hands, like in the poem.
    How right you are, health is about the ability to love and to reach beyond the self. Bravo

      The bit you say about sex at 17 minutes is significant and I appreciate this. I tried to tell my then husband exactly this when he made the decision to have surgery in 1996. He dated only 1 man, I heard from a friend. He's now married to a woman and calls himself a lesbian. She tolerates that artifice, I guess. I also see your maleness in your shoulders and hands. For me, you wouldn't have passed. The departure from a self-involved mindset will give you spirituality and wisdom. You will really help others. I am sure. @@Call-Me-Sam

    hi Sam. my name is Luke. i just started my detransitioning process because of what i feel like was a culmination of encounters with God. it is really amazing to see someone who is also MTFTM. i liked seeing your recommendation on julian of norwich. i think i will give it a read.

      Hi Luke. For me to heal, detransition was essential, a return to the male I was and always have been. There, is stability and the truthful discovery of self in relationship with Source/God. I think our form is symbolic of something before form, essence, spirit ? and that is truth and cannot be changed Looking at all the changes I have been through nothing really changed for the better, it was all a diversion that took me away from the truth of what and who I am.
      There are many painful lessons in life and this was one of the most painful paths to walk.
      I wish you well in your own discovery.

    One of my favorite things about your videos is how much they promote a desire to love and have compassion for all people. We all, regardless of our background, faults and history and pain owe it to other human beings to have respect and compassion for them. So often we scrunch our nose at others different than ourselves ( especially who sin differently than we do) but in reality we are the the same, flawed human beings with various history, strengths, weaknesses all loved by God and created for unique purposes to serve Him in the world. Every time I see your videos I see more of more how much we are the same and much less we are different. There are people in the world I could never reach or impact that only you can and I believe there are people you were created to impact who have either received or are awaiting the blessings only you can bring and nothing you have ever been through that lead to the special man you are today will be in vain. God always has a plan for good, we only have to trust Him and surrender.

      Thank you so much. Yes, I agree, we are all flawed and as the " civilised " world becomes more complex, those flaws also become more complex. We respond to our environment, the ideas and normalisation of disturbing currents make it easier to come to the truth . When the complexity feels such a distortion of truth, it's a relief to accept God. Truth , morality, love, rightness, all synonyms for God.
      God shows me great patience as I stumble toward surrender .

      ​@@Call-Me-Sam As humans, we must hurt in order to heal. Avoiding the pain or denying it only leads to more dysfunction. I think in balanced, integrated person we have to face the truth and the reality of ourselves and accept all aspects. Denying something causes it to get stronger and stronger until the entire focus of their existence becomes about denying it. Healing requires the acknowledgment of these things.
      Healthy means balanced. Unhealthy is imbalanced. Most of us have things about ourselves that we don't like or don't want to accept. These things often disrupt our lives in some way or another. We may be uncomfortable with them and seek to hide them from others. We may be ashamed of them or angry about them. The more imbalanced the situation is, the more unhealthy a person will be. If someone is so uncomfortable with these things about themselves that they deny or ignore them, they will become more and more unhealthy. They may be paranoid, irritable, unpleasant and generally miserable.. Denying and demonizing aspects of ourselves to the point that they cannot accept it - or ourselves means we cannot be balanced and it can lead to horrible, painful dysfunction that results when we cannot integrate the different parts of ourselves into a cohesive, whole self.
      It's hard to build true self-worth until we engender acceptance of ourselves. Denial. Instead of fixing the problem, actually reinforces it and makes it worse. I think one of the most valuable lessons we can learn in life is the importance of living authentically and being honest with ourselves. Yes, accepting things can be painful. However, what we don't accept, we cannot change or heal, and what we deny eventually ends up running our lives. Be honest with yourself and face the struggle. Change is never easy but it can be so worth it. Honesty is the first step. When we face the Shadow and we accept it, we master it and we can use it for healing. Doing Shadow work is painful and scary, but it is necessary for balance. And balance is where we find peace.

      Detransitioners were never trans, but confused and did not get the mental health they needed.
      Just because some people make this mistake, does not mean that true gender dysphoria does not exist. For many, medical treatment is the cure.
      But yes at the moment there seems to be a trend that so many people believe they now have this very rare condition of transsexualism - which is real and supported by medical evidence as a neurological condition.

    Thank you again, Sam. It's such a privilege in various ways to listen to and observe your healing, wisdom and growth.
    In this video, from a year ago you describe yourself as a fairly feminine man. I have to tell you again, I think you overstate that. To survive you learned to put on femininity, and you are rapidly unlearning that. You were already then (a year ago) so much less "feminine" than a year before that. And now you don't strike me as feminine at all.
    You refer here to cosmetic surgeries to your face. I don't know what you looked like before those surgeries, but to my eye it's pretty much down to the lack of whiskers, or a five o/clock shadow, the large eyeglasses, smacking of lips occasionally at the end of a sentence. Not much else. And your recent videos show Sam, a man, full stop. NOT androgynous, not a feminine man.
    Of course, I and perhaps others wonder why you see no benefit in a phalloplasty and testosterone, topics which you've raised elsewhere. Imagining myself in that situation, I think I'd want those. You have no obligation to explain, but this seems counter-intuitive.
    Truly, I ask about not out of crude curiosity but because I'm drawn into your experience by the poignancy, honestly and eloquence of what you share.

      I don't want to go through any more scarring surgery and phalloplasty is equally as false as vaginoplasty . After so many years, physically I'm comfortable as I am. After decades of imbalance I do now take a small dose of Testosterone and a small dose of Oestrogen , this feels balanced .
      Re my appearance, some see me as you do, a male, others still comment that I very much look female, I tend not to get involved in how I am perceived or which pronouns people use when the speak to me .

      Please forgive me for objecting to the logic of part of your answer, though I cannot object to your decision, nor to your reluctance to experience further surgery.
      1. In a sense a phalloplasty would be "false" (but it really cannot be compared with the vaginoplasty because the latter was meant to repudiate your nature, while a phalloplasty, whatever its limitations, would be meant to affirm it.
      So, whatever the two procedures may have in common, they are opposites in their intent.
      2. I find it very hard to believe that anyone seeing you recently could honestly say you "very much look female." They must be looking at old videos.
      Your voice has deepened greatly. That objectively has made a huge difference.
      Simultaneously, your mannerisms are now much more masculine than feminine. Dressing as a man has made a huge difference
      You do look like a sensitive person, with feelings which you do not hide. Great! That's certainly NOT the same as feminine. And that does not undermine the fact that you now look very strong inwardly.

It is impossible for the parents demeanour, thoughts and feelings not to shape the child .

    I related to your language dilemmas, as a trans widow, ex-wife of a man who suddenly enveloped himself in a female persona, influenced by a non-certified therapist who encouraged his secret life away from our little family with 2 young sons. I'd rather a different category name, but there it is, the trauma is there in that language. I use the term cross-sex ideation instead of trans, and wish the mental health practitioners did too, as it's more accurate. I taught 4 young children in 20+ years who desisted after brief insistence of an opposite sex persona. These last 2 weeks I've felt a surge of psychological strength and energy. You are making momentous and forward-thinking decisions. "Undoing the artifice" is such a great phrase, and I remember your previous channel, when you were wrestling with this decision.

    Hi Sam, glad to see a video of yours pop up on my feed. It's been a long time since that happened. Glad to see your journey continuing, & you doing well. Good luck with the doctors.
    Regarding the focus on "self, self, self" that creating & maintaining the illusion of "transition" involves: what's ironic is that most girls & women historically haven't gotten to focus on ourselves to anywhere near the extent that "MtFs" do because starting as little girls, we get saddled with childcare duties, cooking, cleaning & other caretaking & domestic chores. Then when we grow up, most of us become mothers ourselves, and fairly soon too.
    I have often thought that if "MtFs" only knew what life is actually like for most girls & women - a whole lot of taking care of others, wiping bottoms & noses, dealing with scutwork & literal shxt, etc - then the dream of "transitioning" & "becoming a woman" wouldn't be nearly so appealing.
    The idea that being female is all about looking pretty & being glamorous & going through life "on easy mode" is such a fantasy - and a decidely male fantasy at that.
    BTW, the different ways that males & females construct the self, & the size of the self in the two sexes, is an interesting topic. I remember in the 1970s reading & discussing the view of a philosopher or theologian (I don't recall the name, sorry) which said that for males in Western culture, the sin is too much self, whilst for females the sin is too little self. But that doesn't mean that having a "big" or bigger self is necessarily always a boon for males. The old phrase "fragile male ego" reflects the reality that an inflated self has special vulnerablities, after all. Moreover, as your life story shows, having a big self really sucks if you grew up full of self-loathing, shame & lack of self worth. A big self full of toxic feelings about the self/yourself is as an awful heavy burden to carry through life.
    You might be interested in the work that Carol Gilligan did in the 70s and 80s on the differences in way boys & girls develop moral reasoning. It relates to the different ways that males & females construct & conceptualize the self & see it in relation to others.
    Again, good luck with the surgery. Best wishes to you as always.

      No male will ever experience life as a female. All they can do to 'get close' to our experiences is achieve some kind of female social role IF no one knows they are male and they consistently pass 100% of the time, but even then their experience of being socially seen as a girl or woman is from the perspective of a male who CHOSE to live like this. Experiencing sexism when others see you as a woman really isn't the same when you're actually male. No male will ever have the experiences unique to females, good or bad. No Fear of rape with a pregnancy as a result. Never having to worry about birth control for yourself. Never getting to experience pregnancy and labour and all the good and bad this can come with. Same for breastfeeding (lactating males should not be allowed to 'feed' infants, this is a sex crime on an infant). The men who chose to try to "live as a woman" get to choose a female social role (only if they pass), get only the fun stuff like fashion and makeup and shoes and I guess being able to sit back in the dating game and let the men come to you. I guess if that's all "living as a woman" is and can be to a man, then I guess it is all fun to the men who choose this. I am female. I didn't get to choose my female body or what that means if I want to reproduce. I can't hide my female body, no matter what I wear others will still immediately identify me as female with all the good/bad consequences. I'm too scared to sleep in a tent or car by myself, which I don't think would be the case if I were male. I can't fight off any man due to my size and lack of strength. My fertility is limited and only out of higher education a handful of years (PhD) yet I'm already in the winter of my fertility. But there's good things too for the women who want motherhood, we don't have the same kind of rough play as boys do, we are at higher risk of sex crime but lower risk of other violent crime, I don't think any country will force females to frontline combat, sharing experiences with other women is nice, and we can easily connect with children without immediately being seen as a sex criminal. But the TiMs just get the makeup and fashion, but they also get to coerce and control others, invade female spaces, take away my rights, make themselves the centre of social groups and their relationship etc. I love androgynous and GNC men. I dated one and he was great. He wasn't confused about being male, though.

      Hi Bill,. Agreed on much of this. I've known both privilege and prejudice being perceived as male and female. I've also experienced violence in the same way, and the threat of sexual violence. Males live with the threat of violence and most of the time, the reality of that. Transition isn't about " fun stuff " (don't let Demot Mulvaney be an example. )... maybe for some but for others it feels like a life or death attempt to make sense of self.

    I just came across your channel, Sam, and although I have not experienced the exact same in my life as you (as all our paths are varying and different), I have experienced abuse as a child which has molded much of my thinking and attitudes and actions into my adulthood that I am only very recently unraveling and beginning to truly comprehend and heal from. I also find many of the same feelings and emotions lying in my core that you have expressed you felt, mainly towards yourself. It is SO freeing, although many times quite difficult, when we come to understand a remarkably deep truth and then courageously step forward into that process of healing, but my goodness, I don't believe there is anything so spiritually renewing as when you are able to look back over your shoulder and see how far you've come from where you started.
    I think you put it perfectly: transitioning from delusion to truth is the most important part. Our bodies may undergo various changes and appearances, but we are not our bodies. We are still we, no matter how we look.
    God bless you, and thank you so much for sharing your story. You are a beautiful speaker and have been able to put to words what many feel and have not yet the inner voice to speak aloud. Thank you! I will be praying for you, and for me, and for the so many others out there in the world who are healing from trauma and those who have yet to join us. 💜

You are being such an inspiration for my life in this very moment. Thank you for your returning to real Home. You know, there's a part in the Bible recalling the new born man, the rebirth, and that's exactly what you've gone through.. your awakening from illusion. Thank you.

You can touch their hearts and souls this way because you have been there and speak from a space of love and forgiveness. Bless you, my friend, on your journey and in your work.

    No matter our sex, our gender, our age, as a human being it takes courage to be ourselves. Learning what Love is and what it isnt. Choosing Love over fear over and over and over again. Loving our bodies wherever we are along the way. Allowing and accepting our journeys without judgement. Nothing easy about it and the easiest way to be, all at the same time. Oh the paradoxes we face on the journey. Its harder than I expected it to be. But it's our process and how we find our way.

    It's criminal how young people are being pressurised back into the 1950s-style gender stereotypes we all thought we had successfully put behind us. I grew up in the 70s. There was nothing odd back then, in masculine women and feminine men. Right up to the 90s, everyone was still comfortable with "gender-bending". Of which David Bowie is the most famous example.

    As a religious person, I listen a lot to detransitoners. I think they are plagued by a lot of demons from the past and trauma and without the help they need. I think partly it is also a narcissism (unintended) which is normalised in our societies which values the Self over anything else. Life doesn’t begin and end with me and I am not the most important thing in the world.

Those who find my videos helpful sometimes reach out and want to talk, as time goes by I think this will become the focus of my life. Helping others similarly in pain who are trying their best to reclaim their lives. It really helps to know that there is one who understands how it feels to barely survive such intense pain.

      Humans are complicated. We suffer and find ways of coping with our suffering . Transition is an extremely powerful strategy for taking control of your life and escaping our suffering..... or so it seems at the passing of time. When we're young we make mistakes, we have limited knowledge and experience that only changes over time. Accepting those mistakes, the consequences of which we cannot change, invariably forces us to outgrow our former self.
      This is the work of every human , we all make mistakes , we all, to varying degrees of severity live with the consequences of those mistakes.

      It was a false hope... thinking the other "pretended" gender would be the answer for their trauma and lack of self-knowing. But at this point, with all the alternations... maybe playing the female social gender role again would be the best choice, since he looks very feminine. But probably all of that "playing" is too much for him now.
