    Not to echo everyone else too loudly, but you look and sound just like the lovely young woman you are. As a cis woman with a rather masculine face, I've always found it comforting that women like Angelica Huston and Cher (even Amal Clooney) are considered quite beautiful by many. As you hinted toward the end of the video, I t definitely helps to model your style on someone that already looks a bit like you 😊.

      You look like a young teenage girl. As you keep on your hormone therapy and grow into a young woman things will change for the better. Give it time dear

    I struggle so much with dysphoria and accepting that my body will never look like a cis body. It's one of the hardest things I've ever had to overcome. I think I might get there some day, I'll keep fighting!! Self love is hard x-x
    Lovely video as always!!!

    oh my goodness. you are so beautiful.
    girl, i thought you were a cis girl to be 100% honest. i'm a trans male so i can relate to some dysphoria problems but not all obviously, anyways i love you and I just want you to know you're valid! i support you❤️

    So happy with the point that before you began transitioning the worst thing was social dysphoria. I am just starting to come out and getting significant imposter syndrome because my biggest issue has usually been social dysphoria. So often I see people talking about physical transition and not discussing the importance of being treated as a woman socially.

    Aww I actually love the video's title, it's so cute.
    I'm lucky in some ways because I don't have height dysphoria. By now, pretty much all of the boys in my year have outgrown me (yay).
    But urgh, my social dysphoria and facial dysphoria are a mess. My face really stops me from passing at the moment, because although I don't naturally have very masculine features, they're still not ultra feminine.
    Also... I may be starting to come up with a theory here. This was just supposed to be a short lil' comment being like "gOoD vIdEo YoU'rE rEaLLy PrEtTy" and all that but anyway,
    My voice (which broke when I was literally just 11) isn't actually very deep for a male voice, and my friends say that it naturally sounds like a slightly lower feminine voice. So epic theory TM, I'm actually a ciswoman (apart from all the biology and stuff, but let's brush over that).
    Okay, I kinda forgot where I was going with this...

    You already look and sound very femine and beautiful 🧡 If this cheers you up, I'm 16, I'm afab, pre-HRT and I have really flat chest, almost non-dystrophic for me. Not every woman or afab has bigger chest :D

    14 can’t come out and have been having massive amounts of dysphoria recently. Very strong jaw and a low voice even for an amab person as well as being skinny and very flat. This does help to cope so thank you

  • @charlescopeland5848
    @charlescopeland5848 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    You are beautiful in side and out. There are so few who put themselves out to the public in social media with truth about how they feel. You are brave and stronger than you give yourself credit for.

    @zoeyaldred20 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I totally understand your face dysphoria, I have it. One day you'll think u look good and one day you'll think you look really masculine. But trust me girl you look good every day of the week 😁❤️

    • @hq4287
      @hq4287 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Don't worry. Theatre people are often understanding. There will be roles. Why don't you write a show? I'm sure people who will be interested who are other these nerds could help you.

    Ava, you are so paranoid and way too critical about yourself. You’re very pretty, very perfectly shaped face, great skin, very passable voice! Stop this! I can’t speak to your height (I’m 6’ and dysphoric about height). I’m finding more accomplished women who taller than 5’11”. You’re demeanor is perfect. You are feminine perfection! Stop this self doubt! Teri

    A great way to relieve dysphoria is lucid dreaming since it allows you to shape your body how you want in your dreams. However it will take a lot of time to master but when you succeed, it’s worth it and it works for trans girls and guys.

  • @theteddyshow9072

  • @toothandnail7
    @toothandnail7 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    You have a beautiful voice Ava. Plus having a lower voice isn't a bad thing. I dated a sis gendered woman with a voice as deep as mine, and I thought it was sexy as hell.

      @quintuscrinis 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      I know it's been a year since your comment and I hope you are in a better place now, but if it helps my brother is very homophobic and transphobic. He is part of why I haven't done anything so far, but moving out and getting my own place has definitely helped.
      I realise it's a bit of a cliché but it does get better. :)

    @ericavanderwal8635 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    I think you look and sound really good. I have bad facial dysphoria because I have dark hair and thus after shaving there are dark coloured patches visible that the foundation etc I have tried till now cannot hide, I really despise my facial hair ugh. My voice bothers me aswell although it feels a little bit less bad as my mom and sister have lower voices for women. My height does not bother me too much as I am about the average maybe upper limit for most modern girls height, compared to most men I am a bit short, so that I am ok with. My feet is a different story altogether as it is hard to find womens shoes that fit me even though even they are not gigantic they still are bigger then the average woman's. My hands well could be better, could be worse, they are not gigantic but obviously not feminine either. I have not been able to get any treatment, no hormones, no hair removal, no surgeries, nothing, so my breasts are small, but as I became a bit overweight about 10 - 12 years ago some fat went there too which made me very happy as it was not flat anymore, that was even before I fully realized and accepted I am trans funnily enough. Bottom dysphoria well again could be better, could be worse, my package is quite tiny, under showers many guys always used to comment pre coming out how ridiculously tiny it is, like it is pathetic, but it being so small makes it easier to hide/less noticable when wearing clothes so I guess that is better then if it were alot bigger as then I feel it would be a hassle to hide it and it would make me feel way more worried that someone would notice it, also ofcourse I would see it myself and exaggerate it for myself causing worse dysphoria, so I guess glad I don't have to deal with that as much, the facial hair thing is way worse, as like I said even after shaving super smooth it is still clearly visible, and if I for whatever reason cannot shave I just get super dysphoric and even depressed, so I do everything I can to atleast shave every day, god I wish one day I can get hair removal so I don't have to shave every single day anymore, that would make me so happy.

    If you look closely at anyone you can see both sexes. After all they came from a mother and a father. Just look in a mirror you should see both your mother and father there. Re- integrate them in yourself.

    Ava stop using the word "LIKE" as if it was punctuation. Strangely enough "LIKE" ,Means as if ! Try replacing "As if every time you say like and see how it sounds ! You are a bright young woman. Be better. BTW go search allabouthsts.com and learn to understand youself better sweetie. I suspect you are HSTS not transgender ! Let me know eitherway.

    • @lensolla7777
      @lensolla7777 6 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      Amanda Grimes she's trans because she says so, what's the point of saying she might not be? I tried reading the page but I honestly don't get it. Is it trying to categorize trans people into "socially acceptable/fits gender roles" and "doesn't fit"? I'm a little skeptical, mostly because it seems to have been written by someone who isn't trans. If we choose a label, well that's another thing. But imposing labels on minorities ticks me off

    • @amandagrimes4138
      @amandagrimes4138 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Len Solla the page is written and pulished by a heterosexual man who is and has been been married to a transsexual for years and I, a transsexual, who transitinened 33 years ago contibuted to the site. !!
      The fact is you can encourage young transsexuals like Ava to live in an imaginary world fostered by the current Trans movement where she will never be secure because it is built on a falacy or she could understand the truth of her existence and Flurish, live a successful and fulfilled life.

    • @lensolla7777
      @lensolla7777 6 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      Amanda Grimes it's okay if you like it and use it, but the trans movement evolves with its people. Right now for most young people those ideas seem to alienate us. What work for some, doesn't for others. It's important to take age into consideration when thinking what is "true" or is a "fallacy", like you said. I cannot impose on anyone else what my truth on being trans is, so I don't like when people try to impose their truths. It's personal and evolves.

    • @hzsweetieaim
      @hzsweetieaim 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      While there may be some people who have a desire to change gender so they won't look gay, as this site seems to imply, I think, but I really didn't get it, she never once mentioned attraction and spent the entire video explaining what about herself gives her dysphoria, so clearly this isn't her case. You were too busy counting her "likes" and thinking you know better than she does about her own brain that you didn't actually listen. And calling her "sweetie" in that manner is pretty patronizing. How is it supposed to ease her dysphoria if she were actually enlightened by your comment and came to identify herself as an "hsts" who is still transitioning, such as yourself, versus "uneducatedly" believing she is transgendered? Mmm, still dysphoric.

    • @nateeckhardt9643
      @nateeckhardt9643 5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Amanda Grimes do you even English “transitinend” Trans-itty-nen-d. LMAOOOOOOOOOOOO you’re like 112 years old you should probably know how to spell by now damn. Transitioned is the right way to spell it and not be mentally challenged. No hate on trans people considering I am a MTF myself
