Good for you :)
omg that's awesome
I'm happy for you
Jay The Son Congratulations!!!!
Last time I was this early I thought I was a girl
oml XD
The most original comment I've seen on a trans related video 👌👌😉
Aspen XY Im shitting myself oml
same
Lmao
My grandma still saw me as a female after i came out as trans.. But last time she called me "he" and i cried.. She thought she did something wrong. I then told her she called me "He" and she was like:"Yeah, i know. And i love u." i cried more and she was like "Well, that's not very man-like" she was joking and I laughed. I'm going to start testosterone when I'm 17. I turned 16 and I'm so happy when I'm 17!
Jona Cgnoh my god this made me misty eyed to be honest. That’s so sweet. I’m ftm but the only person I’ve rlly been able to tell is my sister (and friends) and she took a lot better than I thought.
Awe, yay! Congratulations, and keep being the most authentic you you can be!
Reading this made me smile. Im so happy for you ❤️
You're lucky having a respectful family like this. If I come out as trans to my grand parents... Then bye bye, see you in the sky in a century...
Aww I love that so much.
The "trans people can be gay" part of this video was what made me smile. Im ftm and im also gay, woah shocker a ftm trans guy can be gay who knew? Whenever I explain this to people they just say that I'm a "straight female" uM nO
casually cameron I understand you soooooo well!! I am ftm and bisexual so you can imagine the reaction of my parents , brother and sister
Sysy Improvise Oh god yeah, I live in a house with just my mom and sister, so I have no male role model & I look to youtube for them. Its so difficult being gay AND transgender ugh everyones like "heres my boyfriend" or "heres my girlfriend" and im like "heres my friend because no one will date me"
yeah my boyfriend just broke up this morning because he dont want to be with a men, it makes him fill bad :/
Sysy Improvise ive been in that situation, it broke me for a while but then i got over it. If he cant be with the happier version of you, he was just encouraging the unhappy one :(
yeah, thanks for encouraging
Yesssssss you don't have to medically transition for you to be transgender!! Every point you hit was spot on!! As far as bathrooms, I don't use public bathrooms unless it's an emergency/I actually start to be in pain from waiting so long. Awesome video!!!!
Logan, yes same
That honestly makes me so sad
Same. School was SUCH a pain when it came to bathrooms.
that is a very yellow hoodie
Yes.
I've seen yellow-er 🤣
Mhm.
I love the color yellow.
indeed it is
I'm trans and at pride two weeks ago, I went into he girls bathroom (I was born a girl and I dont feel comfortable using the mens bathroom) and some woman came up to me and told me "You're so strong" tbh I think she thought I was trans mtf
Nate Bane lol😂
I'm FtM and most people actually assume I am MtF so it is very awkward when I have to explain that they did not misgender me the first time.
Whyou hatin thats fucking wrong dude
lmao
Jake Robison how’s it hating
The thing is i'm dealing with a bit of a problem. I told my best friends (lets say A and B) a couple months ago that i'm trans. A is respecting it but they don't fully agree with it, B is understanding, aware, wants to respect but somewhat refuses ro and makes transphobic comments. I tell person B and it sitll seems to be ineffective. I am considering ending friendship with B. A on the other hand is fine, they use the right pronouns and they understand but at the same time they say some transphobic things and stick to it. I tell A and they understand what i'm saying but the enxt day they'll say, "but technically you'll still slways be a girl". I want to rely on my friends but i'm conflicted and i don't know if ican anymore. Even times when i feel dysohoric in gym class and i tell them that the anxiety is crippling me, they make fun of me and call out my chest which is unfortunaty not of small nature and moves around a lot when i jump bearing in mind i don't have a binder or a very good sports bra to use that flattens. That really hurt and tje rest of my day was spent in tears with my boyfriend. I don't know ehat tp do about this becuase B is just a bitch and i can drop them but the A is so close to me and i'm close to them and they say sorry and help slightly. I need advice really bad becuase i have to go back to school again in a couple of weeks and i don't know what to do
STheGayChronicles CuaseJesusHatesMe If they refuse to understand and continously do things that they know make you uncomfortable, honestly their friendships aren't worth it. Just find people who respect you and stick up for you rather than put you down.
STheGayChronicles CuaseJesusHatesMe if they don't fully respect you, then that's not a real friend. My advice would be to push person B away because they clearly wouldn't stick up for you and don't respect you like you deserve. I've had to break up with about 3 of my "friends" because they didn't accept me being trans. They may have been cool people, but in the end you deserve respect for how you are. My best friend is the same as person A so I still keep them around because they at least try to understand and go by my name/pronouns. If they make a transphobic remark, just ignore it because it tends to happen since they don't really know what it's like. Also, if you can, try to make a joke out of it. I'm FTM and proud but I'll still laugh along because I know I was once a girl and I know that I still have a girls body so I just choose to embrace what I have now. Once I fully transition, then I can be even more proud and see where I came from. But keep person A and drop person B. Good luck on your transition!!
It's hard to tell anyone what to do in a situation like this.
To me it seems like, they are somewhat trying to tolerate it, but also not really.
I would maybe try to show them videos and or posts that describe the way you feel as a trans person.
Sometimes they try to understand but they don't because they don't have enough information.
If they still don't get it, and say transphobic and disrespectful stuff, you should cut those people out of your life.
Because honestly, if they keep making you feel bad about yourself, they're not worth it.
I would drop B, and try to educate A. It sounds like A is trying (at least a bit), but if you don't make any progress, drop them too. You deserve friends that respect who you are completely.
STheGayChronicles CuaseJesusHatesMe Person A sounds a bit confused and you shouldn't blame them as it's not an everyday thing. I know for non trans I t's hard to gather the concept that you're not who you were born as so think of it like this: to some it may seem like a cat is saying it's a dog (pretend they talk) which is confusing and you wouldn't understand as you're not a cat or dog. They might also not know what they're saying is offensive so you should tell them. But over time if they truly care for you then they'll maybe try to understand more and stop saying things that are offensive to you.
I'm trans. I was born differently but I was still born, just like any other person. I am a human and I feel emotions too. It's just as simple as I'm transgender.
oml I read that as "I was stillborn" for a second there.
I recently came out as trans ftm. Where do I start the transition??
Well you can transition in lots of different ways, there's no "correct" route. If you want hormones, go see a therapist. Other things you can do is change your pronouns, way of dress if necessary, hair cut, etc. Oh, and coming out to people who you think should know about this.
Text me on snap and i will help you @dougchapman02
A haircut
good for you
I'd shorten hair first, and get a chest binder. Figure out pronouns and a name, then go to counselling for a possibility of surgeries and/or hormones. Have a nice day :)
I showed this video to my parents and they now call me he/ him, which are my preferred pronouns
Congrats dude! I'm happy they came around.
i’m eight months late but i’m still happy for you dude!
Wow i hope they support you
okay but like he's such a cutie? can we just take a second
Emma Myers he is cute
I'm trans
Jimin Park samee ^_^
Hi trans, I'm dad.
Same here
Me too I'm mtf 💁🏼
I'm trans too and my bias is jimin :)
hey i'm max, a transguy, and a freshman in high school. yesterday i came out to my dad and we had the worst argument because he is transphobic and his beliefs on trans people are absolute bullshit and i don't want to live with him. however, i have to, because he is my dad and my school is right next to his house. there's nothing i can do to change his mind. he doesnt use my pronouns or preferred name. any tips?
supreme edgelord lecture him and try to put him in ur position like make him feel how you felt when he didn't be supportive and like a real dad. He needs to know how you feel about ur future and who you are to consider you as a person and male. That's what I have been doing recently and it has been working out great my parents have been so supportive than since I first told them and I feel great.
MYL I'm in the same situation I wish I could help but I dont know what to do either
supreme edgelord keep trying. Talk to him more. Don't give up, I have been there.
supreme edgelord this isn't related and I'm terribly sorry for the situation you are in. I'm trans and my name is max and my best fiend is trans and his name is max, does anyone else think max is a common name for trans males.
supreme edgelord dude i feel you 100%, my dad is transphobic too and he doesn't want me to transition to a man. It sucks I know but they're not the ones who decide how to live our lives. It's our lives and we'll live it how we want to.
I thought for a long time about "do trans people not drive?" And then ended up making hypotheticals in my head of meeting a trans person and them saying "I don't drive, because I'm trans"
IT'S OFFICIAL: not driving is trans culture. OURS NOW.
I'm trans ftm and I'm trying to think of a good name that would suit me, any ideas?? I was thinking maybe Joey but I'm not sure, opinions??

I have my First T appointment today!!
Tyler Jay four months late but congrats:)
this is suuuper late but congrats!!!
Tyler Jay it’s been a year man wohoooo
I have a great technique for the bathroom! I usually just run into the bathroom like I'm gonna take a shit and people just literally give me space so I can use the stall.
Haha
Why haven't I thought of this? (Don't mind my email I haven't changed it..😭)
I’m telling my therapist I’m a boy today
Layla Cook
I hope everything went well!
You go bro!
I think you should have clarified for some that not all drag queens are trans women, but some trans women are drag queens, as drag is an outlet for creativity and an art form. Take Peppermint, Gia Gunn and Carmen Carrera for examples.
Last time I wash this early I thought I was straight
I love how cute sam looks in his yellow hoodie
I feel like Trans women are more socially understood. Trans women are far more present in media and society. As far as transmen all we have is Chaz Bono. Both are just as valid. But I really have not seen a lot of trans representation.
Luke Gilliland trans women are not more socially understood? Trans women are the most targeted when it comes to trans men vs trans women. When people are anti-trans people using the bathroom they usually use a transphobic theory that goes against trans women; ex; "do you want a man in the bathroom with your daughter?" No one goes "do you want a girl in the bathroom with your son" no one does that. Trans women are killed way more frequently than trans men.
Luke Gilliland yeah...i mean, that's also probably bad for them but yeaaaahhhhh I want more transmen out there
Hey sam. I'm currently 14 and FTM but I would like to know at what age can I start Testosterone without the hormone blockers included? I really want to start T and I'm starting therapy soon but I would just like to know
Depending on your state 15 or 16 with parental consent
in my country you have to go on hormone blockers if you're under 18 before starting testosterone. Then you can start at 16 with testosterone. If you're older than 18 you can start testosterone right away. (after all the tests and stuff)
sometimes you can start testosterone earlier than 16. But only if you've been out for a long time. Like as a kid.
The FTM prince I live in Idaho, I could start t right now at age 14, and it's surprisingly easy to start it.. Compared to other people's stories..
Okay thanks guys, I live in Indiana but I'm not sure of the state's rules for HRT
One day I hope to as brave as you Sam! I just turned 11 and I'm trans too watching you helps me to feel like I'm not alone!
Thanks for bringing up the differences in opinion between trans people. I've been told so many times by the radical side of the community that my opinions don't count and I don't count as a true trans person because I disagree with a lot of what the radicals say. It's really sad and frustrating.
Joseph White i’m eight months late rippp but i agree, some trans people are wild in what they say, and if i don’t agree i’m “transphobic and rude” even tho i’m trans..? its frustrating honestly
Your Blake Gray hoodie is so lit 😂❤
"Omg I've just confused myself" I do the same exact thing alll the time trying to explain something😂
Cyan Red me too pal me too
I'm not trans but I understood everything you said, you really inspire me sam
Sam this video honestly gave me some courage and i think im gonna come out to my dad as trans soon. Thank you 🙏
Did you do it?
You're my idol bro 💯❤️ you helped me come out and make my own TH-cam channel. Thanks so much. And yes i hate it when people know that im a guy but they still call me "she/her". Thanks for sharing again!
when your camera started moving, i had to pause the video because i thought my eyes were going crazy omg
Yeah some people just seem to forget that we are humans too
you literally make me so happy. i love watching your videos, they're always such a pick me up, i respect you so much. ♥
SO PROUD OF YOU BAE♥️
I'm a Trans Woman and I'm Ace. And thank you for explaining that WE JUST WANT TO PEE! I love your videos Sam 🙂
Thank you so much for helping educate people on this subject Sam!
The more people who understand our differences, the better world to live in ❤️️
One of my favorite videos you've ever posted ❤️ ilysm!
Your hoodie is brighter than me futURE
oh • com mood
Thank you for telling me I'm valid...I really needed to hear that today
The thing about us not all being the same is soooo true, I get so tired of people assuming every single trans person is the same and thinks the same
Awesome video Sam! Thanks for keeping it real and giving us knowledge 👍
everyone is commenting their genders so are there any fellow nonbinaries here
hello, am genderfluid
@@edgytypebeat781 it's honestly nuts how people can think pan people are transphobic. usually i hear it's the other way around, uneducated people saying anyone who *isn't* pan is transphobic.
My dead name is Layla but my new name is Greyson! You don’t have to have something similar to your dead name. It doesn’t matter 💕💗
Nice name choice! ;)
Mine first name and now Phenix
My legal/dead name is Sydney but I go by Eli or Elias
Layla Cook my old name was Rachel and my new name is xaiden
My dead name is ivy but now I’m Blake
This video was actually so good and people need to see this, love you Sam! ❣
Sam struggling to explain things gives me life
Hey people, I need help, I just came out to my parents but they have so many questions I just am not able to answer, I just "discovered " transgender thing three months ago and it clicked but I came out a month ago, my mom doesn't stop saying its a phase and by dad say:" I don't agree but I can't stop you "
How can I explain!!
Thanks for helping me 😌
Sysy Improvise id say let them handle it for a few months, let it sit in, and within that time id link them or show them articles, maybe videos about how being transgender works. dont be forceful with it, they of course can have their own opinions, but at least try to tell them/inform them of certain things so theyll be able to understand it better. tell them thats its not a phase, because if it was then you wouldnt told people something that could potentially hurt yourself in the long run
it may take months, maybe years for them to open up and accept you, but be persistant
just remember that they are your parents and they love you, but if they decide to treat you poorly (ie. physical harm or threats) after this situation, then please find someplace to be a lot that isnt toxic to you
i hope everything goes well, and best of luck to you ❤
TechnicallyTechno thank you a lot ^^ it's feeling good to see people interested, if someone had idea of articles or videos explain really well ftm transition it would help me, I just don't know what could explain them , they are old way people so...
i understand, its quite difficult for people who know little to nothing about this to understand, but im sure theyll come around at some point. until then just try to dig up articles, watch videos, anything on it really, and show them whats up
Regarding your mom, I think she just needs time. After some years/perhaps months of you being out and trans she'll realize that this isn't just some thing that will fade away, and hopefully, she'll try to accept you more. Regarding your dad, there sadly isn't much to change, but he is on a good road. Try to show him some trans people, articles, definitions every once and a while. Answer his questions if you'd like. You can't guarantee he'll understand but showing him what being trans really means may help!
I came out in june but my parents don’t respect anything I say to them
Eyyy i'm early for once. Last time i was this early i thought i was straight hahahahha
Sam you're such a great person and I love how you stated your ideas and personal opinions, I'm trans too (ftm) and you've inspired me so much :) I came out because you were so helpful and I'm glad I have someone to agree with (thoughts, ideas,feelings, etc.) thank you so much Sam. You're doing a great job contributing to the Transgender Community ❤
This is such a great video. Well done, Sam!
TH-cam is going crazy 4 views but 11 likes wtf 😂😂
EDIT:and ur camera is possessed sooo I would buy a new 1 if I were u 😂😖😂
this just reminded me to do my T shot
Watching your videos cheers me up. Thank u Sam :)
FINALLY!!! IT LOADED!!!👌👌
Edit: oh and I haven't seen your merch...like I went to your website and I didn't see anything...😔
I HAVE A QUESTION! How is it possible for a human being to have as big a heart as yours?? Also why can't more people be as amazing as you?? Also I love youuu
awesome vid👍👌
I loved your video. After 65 years of settling for unhappiness because of others feelings, I am doing something about it. I have bipolar disorder type 1 and I've finally decided to look after all of my head and I'm starting to let others worry about theirs
Sam I'm proud of you for being you and saying how you feel and others may feel about being trans❤️ I love you so much
Love u Sam
Last time I was this early was right now
your videos have given me the courage and self esteem and reassurance to come out to my friends and family as trans. you make me feel safe and not so alone anymore, because i dont feel like im the only one 💜 thanks, man
Sammy squad! 😆❤️love your videos!
i haven't watched the video yet but i just need to say that you look good in this video
I still don't know if I'm trans, I'm right in the confusion.. like I've experienced and I like to be called Eric, and called a boy, and I feel better when someone calls me that. I have my hair cut short short, and yeah.. it feels better than anything feminine
Sam, I love you. Please never stop making videos.❤️❤️
Honestly thank you for making this. I agree with you and thought this was awesome! Again thank you!!!!
my best friend who i belived was a cis female came out to me and
said she was born male and i screamed because i was so happy that she trusted me enough to tell me because she met me online and then she sent me a pic of what she looks like and i didnt even belive she was trans because she looked cis female and she came out to her sister and im so excited for her
So do trans men want to be recognized as a trans man or just a man. Or does it differ from person to person.
From what ftm men say when they talk about themself it differs I guess
I would say generally just a man, that's why people go stealth, somebody thinking of you as a trans man instead of a man can be hurtful cus their perception of you may change or they only see you as trans not a man. This isn't universal but even when people are out I feel like they want to be treated as a guy who happens to be trans than a /trans/ guy. imo anyway.
They'd like to be just a man, who happens to have a trans past
David C. I'm a trans man and I just want to be referred to as a man. On most trans men online websites/forms I've been on, most trans men just want to be referred to as men. However, there are some people who want to be referred to as a trans man. However, that's a small minority of trans men.
Thank you all for informing me 😊
I love Sam. He's a blessing. He's hilarious.
Thank you for making this!!!!
I once got slandered by a whole lgbt forum for not censoring the word trap (sorry if u is offended). I believe that I lost a little respect for people who display their "trans-status" online, but then again most of the slanders and offended people were all minors and youngsters.
A trap is different from being trans, though. They're basically someone who "cross dresses" or has a more "feminine" appearance, but is male. And vice versa. (im assuming u know this tho lol)
I could see how they were offended if you associated trans people with that term.
I would like to know what happens if a trans person stop their hormones treatment for both trans girl and boy, do they get back to their original body?
Forever Gone there are some things that reverse and some stay the same even if u stop hormones
YT vlogs What I want to know is what things stay if you stop the hormones, and thanks for answering!
Forever Gone ah, np and I found out by searching it but I forgot what specific thins stay
*things
Forever Gone As far as I know you keep the hairline and deep voice. There are definitely more but I forgot them. Hope this helps :) this is for ftm if you weren't sure.
I LUV U!!!! Thx so much for talking about us transwomen who are valid and are women, i find it difficult to explain because people think im lying since im 15 😢
thank youuuuuuuuu. this needed to be said!
Notifications squad where you at?
Im F2N (non binary) and am trying to find a nickname that's gender neutral and preferably starts with "C" or "Ce" so it's close-ish to my birth name. I haven't come out to my family yet (as enby) plus i dont want to insult my mom by officially changing my name. So it would just be a nickname and only my friends would use it. Do any of you have any ideas?
@@dannystewart4826 Oh that's cool!!!! Thank you!!!!
Hi! I don't know if you've chosen a new name yet, but if you haven't, check out these, they might help you nameberry.com/search/unisex_names/C
@@user-xt3bf8uz9n Thanks, but I already chose one by now though, it's a masculine version of my middle name. (it's Will if you're wondering) But thanks again!
@@caffeination17 Cool, congrats!
Ilysm sam ur videos really help me alot
I like that picture of those birds in the background.
some people are stupid enough to not know that we're real people.
I just made a youtube video about when I knew I was nonbinary. I talk about alot of stuff. So if anyone is interested in gaining some knowledge on that - check it out! I'd really appreciate it!
Camryn Quinn I'll check it out when I'm done watching this video
Camryn Quinn holy shit im Camryn too.
I really like you, you are funny and I get you. You seem to think what ypu say doesn't make any sense but it does! You are super appreciated for all info and topics that you bring up!! So a HUGE thank you! :)
The cockatiel portrait in the background is adorable why is nobody talking about the cute birds!?!?
sammmmmmm notice me i love you
Anyone ftm or mtf wanna talk on Snapchat? I'm ftm by the way, I'm also closeted.
Savannah 18// I'm ftm my sc is nataliephan21
Alright I added you
Snap - jenicahogan
Nobody 123 lmao yeah you can
My snapchat is Jedwardsfam
i frikin love your hoodie
Love you Sammie!!!
Hiiiii
If you are a trans guy and you like girls yay your straight!!!!!! (I am pansexual but, I might become gay? Idk I just feel that change coming on.)
not to sound rude or nosy but nobody explained to me what pansexual is can explain it to me
+Iyanah Williams, sure! Thank you for asking! Pansexual means you like all the genders. So basically you like someone for who they are rather than what's in their pants!
you might become gay? huh, i thought society already established that being gay isn't a choice, maybe the christians are right? Scary thought.
I had my old counselor who told me that using the men's restroom is a danger to cis men... fucking what? Bullshit that's what it is. Ughhhhhhh she also disclosed confidential information to another client. Like fukkkkk
You are amazing your videos helped me to understand my boyfriend who is trans even though he can't complete his transition yet and I love him so much. Thank you 😊
Basically your saying you being gay doesn't always go with there body parts if there's a trans female to male and they are dating a male there are gay even though they have a girl body part they present as male and want to live as male and if they like male then they are gay even if they have some other girl body parts so you are straight because you live as male you want to present as a male so a male dating a female is straight doesn't matter always on body parts
Christine Redburn yeah p much. My best friend is gay and ftm, meaning he only likes guys, even though he was afab
Sam: "I don't get offended by *anything* "
**makes a whole video talking about how he got misgendered at the store**
you've made so many valid points in this video
I’m trans FtM and basically in the closet from my mum. All of my friends know and are completely supportive, it’s just harder to come out to my family. I’m hoping to be able to accomodate a proper binder soon (at the moment I’m using bandages) and possibly see a gender therapist. It’s unlikely that I’ll be able to without my mum knowing and she doesn’t exactly support me so I doubt that’ll happen. I really want testosterone shots but again, I can’t get them without my mum knowing.
Sam, your videos always help me gain a little more confidence and give me hope that soon I might be able to properly come out to my mum and begin transitioning.
Thank you for making me smile everyday, you truly inspire me ❤️
ILYSM Sam! till this day, I still remember the day I met u💖
Great vid , thanks 🖖
Omg that was a good video and your hoody is so coooll
I am so glad you stood up for Trans women!
This video is really insightful. I like how you point out that transgender people can be conservative or liberal and differ in ideology. Sometimes I feel I'm painted with the same brush as the rest of the trans community despite the fact that I don't agree with their points of views most of the time.
