    White cishet male father of 3 teens, 2 that are trans. I'm doing my best to help them be able to live authentically and part of that has been exposing them to the music that opened my mind and heart to accept others for who they are and prepared me to be a father to extraordinary kids. Punk is a big part of that and it warms my heart to see a scene that they can feel a part of despite being in a state of overwhelming oppression and discrimination. We feel your pain here in Utah. I can't wait to share this with my kids!

    As someone who is lucky enough to be queer in a queer-friendly state, this documentary definitely makes me a feel a little less worried for my cousins in Texas. Should any of them turn out queer in the future, it's good to know they would have a thriving community to support them. Beautiful and in-depth documentary, the interviews and the show footage all feel so genuine and raw - you should be proud such an amazing piece of art!

    this video is actually so beautiful?? its so heartfelt yet harsh. it's an amazing celebration of queer (especially trans) culture, and the sense of community that comes with it all. it's just such a fuck you to transphobes, while being a loving embrace for all trans people at the same time. it shows the love and strength involved in liberation. these people deemed as "scary" or "monsters" all together to stand in solidarity with eachother, to embrace what makes them "disgusting" with pure pride and joy, not caring for the status quo of those who seek to hurt and control them. arghhhhhh it's just so fucking refreshing to see people be so unapologetically queer!!!

    I’m so thankful this came in my recommended, this gave me so much hope. As a 22 year old trans woman from Ohio, it can be hard finding queer friends, and it can get discouraging at times. I aspire to find a similar sense of community in time, where we can come together and love and support one another and stand for what we believe in! Music is so powerful. Hopefully there are some hidden queer folk musicians near me I just haven’t met yet haha ❤

      what i dont accept are teenagers and young adults claiming to be queer or trans without being one.
      i mean most of them are posers, i mean i went to the extreme obscene festival with libido airbag and Gut(german masters of porn grind) and i always feel accepted instead of the whole lgbt movement,

You can find your little queer communities and political/activist groups mostly everywhere, but in the music scene I personally think it’s way harder. I’ve never seen anything like in this video here, I’m young but not that young (pushing 30s) so idk if nowadays maybe it’s finally growing as a phenomenon, would love to see it though and I would immediately join if I knew anything about it.

    I'm a genderfluid individual living in North Carolina and I love y'all so much for filming this because the South wants to kill us all but in the punk scene, we can truly thrive. We have power in our communities and we need to recognize that, it's so fucking hard to find your people but there is always a place for you regardless of what establishments try to say.

    Its easy to get pessimistic as a trans youth with so many people who say spout so much hateful nonsense. Though, seeing these peoples overarching self confidence and love in each other despite all the hate makes me so happy and proud to be who I am. Thank you for documenting this.

    14 year old trans girl here. I love music but i live in the middle of po dunk nowhere, IL. Not the worst place to grow up, but there isn't a function like this for miles, let alone a trans community. It's inspiring knowing about events like this because to my knowledge, there are only four trans people within two counties of where i live but here i see so many people like me doing what i want to do, for people like me, and i wonder if i could do that too. Stuff like this makes me want to keep going, even knowing what the road ahead holds for me.

    I've watched this so many times. I used to live in texas, and seeing trans people there living, breathing, fighting, giving a big FUCK YOU to the government and society is such an amazing experience. This is the most represented I've ever felt in a documentary. for my fellow trans people, we need you here. survive. live. let's become the trans elders that we don't get to see. love y'all!

    It's not often that TH-cam suggests a punk video for me, and I'm fucking glad I clicked on it. This made me emotional and gave me hope for humanity.
    I'm autistic, cis, pan and always felt othered because I was "different" and didn't have words to describe my neurodivergent operating system... let alone my sexual identity.
    I can't imagine what is like to be trans, but can imagine its similar to my experience but magnified by 1000x.
    Punk is how I figured out who I was despite it taking me way too long (diagnosed autistic in my 40s) and no matter what I also felt accepted in punk, and protected in punk, and permitted to be the wonderfully weird person I am.
    In so fucking happy that counter-culture is being embraced, the way it needs to be embraced, punk is meant to be about fighting back against those trying to stamp you out, and being a safe place for those without other safe places, and to be an outlet for the fucking pain of existence.
    This makes me want to travel from Western Australia just to visit, but instead maybe I'll find a way to be part of local music scene here in my deeply conservative town, and try shake it the fuck up and change from within

    I loved watching this. My ex is a trans woman and living here in Texas, she told me she feels like the world can be against her. If we still talked i wouldve loved watching this with her, i think she may have liked it and possibly wanted to find this scene despite not being entirely punk. I fear she feels alone with her identity in this state, but im also trying not to victimize her here or exclaim that i absolutely know that for a fact. iirc she likes a little bit of the music and style but she doesn't personally follow any genre btw.

Also as a middle of the road Millenial, its encouraging to see all the baby transes finding confidence and security in their identity so early on. Didn't meet another trans individual in person til I was 22 or so, while at community college.

    Damn! I’m so mad I’m missing out on events like this. I’m soon to be 40 and a combination of depression, health issues, and “adulting” has taken away my social life. I love that this is happening in my city. I remember in the late 90s/early 2000s hanging out near Covenant House in Montrose to get a free meal and sandwiches to go, visiting Montrose Clinic for harm reduction services, craziness at Taco Cabana, Mary’s and Rainbow bar, so much fun, but also a lot of danger. Stay careful and much love to you all. ✌️

    Thank you from a closeted/repressing trans teenager in Texas. I've literally never seen another trans person here, much less known that there were whole communities (to be fair I'm horribly sheltered...) I can barely wrap my head around the idea, I never thought it'd be possible. I've been dissociated for years but this video reawakened something in me. Like it's so close. That could be me. I need to get out there.
