I cannot even believe how strong Zoey is. She's incredible, the way she responds to hate and the self confidence she has, it's truly amazing. You go girl x
Nina Silva:: I just posted a comment referencing that exact statement so when I scrolled through the comments and saw this I had to give a shout out 👍🏻👍🏻♥️! 😉
This goes to further prove my inner belief that Laverne Cox is truly a courageous, humble, modern hero of our time. She uses her fame and success to open a hard conversation to have. My deepest respect to her.
Apocalypse The Destroyer Did it happen to you? How would you know otherwise? Not all trans women are attracted to heterosexual men or men in general. Some are are in same-gender-loving relationships with females both trans and cisgender.
Apocalypse The Destroyer she’s a trans woman with female brain who done surgeries not playing dress up Your basic thoughts should be left when you were 12
I hate how some people “represent” the church by being so negative. Right or wrong you don’t treat a child like that, or anyone for that matter. 😢 People don’t realize words hurt, and when you say things to people you make them mad at you and I’m sure Christ wouldn’t treat any sinner so harshly like that. We all have to do better and be a light of the world and teach with patience and truth to others. God bless all of you & i want everyone to know that Jesus is calling all of us and wants a relationship with ALL ( cis/trans/ w/e) of us so that we can be in the Heavenly Father’s Kingdom soon ❤️
This is horrible, super sad. We really are living in a garbage world that treats people with such anger and disrespect. The documentary is very good to open the eyes of us, who don't have much contact with the community. I hope this kids mother accepts him sooner or later. The little 12 yo girl, aww so cute!
I'm crying. This was so beautiful just like every person in this video. It breaks my heart that transgender people are victims of hate crimes and rape and horrible things like that. A transgender girl at my school was attacked with a knife. Luckily, she survived and got away before anything bad happened. However, the attacker was only suspended for a week. He should be expelled.
What?! A student attacked somebody with a knife and only got suspended?! They should’ve been EXPELLED! They threatened somebody’s life! And if it was against a trans person then it’s likely a hate crime. Absolutely unacceptable. Wherever you go to school is messed up
I think I cried about 10x watching this, so many beautiful stories of bravery, bravery that no one should HAVE to have in order to exist the way they choose.
People who are commenting that they don’t agree, or don’t understand, it’s not for you to understand. There are many things in life I don’t understand or believe in but that doesn’t mean I put other people down, or act ignorant. I keep an open mind. Because I want to live a peaceful and fulfilling life.
So lets all be gay why only a few could do it. Lets see how long the human race would last. Your parents should of been like those people so u would be a blank space. So
Jerson Reyes nobody is asking or telling everybody to be gay. They’re simply asking to be accepted and treated as human beings. I don’t see the problem with that - live and let live.
This made me cry so many times! So proud of these young people for living their TRUTH, and not letting bigots scare them away from who they know they are...
I worked in a Clothing Store, and whenever a trans woman came in....I automatically felt on guard for them. Almost over protective. I was a manager, and knowing the crowd my company served (catty teenage cis-gender girls in Orange County California) I never wanted these women to feel left out in what is usually a hyper-feminine woman's safe haven (shopping). When I tell you the look of absolute delight on their face when I would help them (i.e finding out what kind of outfit they were looking for, actually working together to make outfits, picking out accessories) it would literally warm my heart. I am so into girl power, and girls watching out for each other, but this extends to trans-girls too. I loved this documentary, and the threat against trans people is absolutely an epidemic, and needs to be classified as one.
Shaqreua George there needs to be more people like U.. thank u for being like this- your selflessness in a world so self-centered is an amazing quality that shows a beautiful heart.❤️❤️
I'll be transitioning this month and I'm really scared and anxious but this documentary helped ease some of my fears, I really appreciate seeing all these courageous beautiful souls, thanks for posting this MTV 💜
Fuegomamibeatz, Don't be scared . . I hope you have informed yourself properly. . . It's quite simple, It takes about 1 1/2 hrs.. As long as you are sure how you feel . . Practice cross dressing first. good luck , from Canada.
It’s okay to not go through with it too. I know some non-binary friends that chose not to I have surgery and they are making their way through life. Do what makes you feel safe, happy and whole. You don’t have to do anything you don’t want to do. If it makes you feel whole, do it. If you still have questions, you can take your time too. There is no rush unless you feel you need to do this now. I hope your journey is a fulfilling and happy one either way. ♥️
I would be so proud if my future child ended up a letter of the LGBTQUIA. Being trans and non-binary myself (I go by they/them pronouns) my coming out was slow and awkward and at some times definitely excruciating and painful at times. My mom didn’t understand what was going on with me and ended up accidentally locking me into the proverbial closet a few times. If I have a kid who is more like me (currently: non-binary two-spirit they/them, somewhere in the middle of the Kinsey scale toward bisexual, polyamorous and demisexual [shout-out #DemiMoore and Savage x Fenty Demi cups, lol]) I want to be able to help them explore who they are so the world doesn’t define it for them as much as it’s been defined for me as a female-presenting person. 💜💖🖤💙♒️♊️☦️💟☮️
Fun fact: in the south, us queer Appalachians refer to the LGBTQUIA acronym as QUILTBAG, and I love that. Makes me think of beautiful AIDS quilts aunties would make for their just come out babies. #pflag
These kids have more gut and thicker skin than anyone I know. Kudos to their bravery and I hope we as a society will become more accepting one day. Very excited that there are people like Donnie (Avery's date)out there too, who care about the person and not their genitalia.
Thank you for doing this MTV. Please make more documentaries! Plus all the people who participated really deserve huge applause. It's 2016. We should know better.
I love how you present this documentary, Laverne! It is very empowering and informative showing diverse trans people and their experiences! Spread more love, kindness, and respect to our differences as we only live once.
I'm a straight white woman and i have no problems with anyone doing or being who they are as long as no one is harming themselves or anyone else. Live your lives with happiness and pride in yourself. Find the love you deserve to have just as anyone else does. Discrimination out of ignorance and fear is never a positive thing.
@Hubris "leaps off a bridge , believes he's an eagle"??? She said AS LONG AS THEY DON'T HARM THEMSELVES OR ANYONE ELSE. Hate in your own heart is something YOU have to live with. You can't perpetuate your unhappiness onto people. Let it out. Be free!!
Hubris how is being gay harmful? I’m asking your opinion, respectfully. I can understand why approving hormones for young children before they’re brain and hormones are done forming - you can make that argument, I suppose. But I don’t get why it bothers you if someone is gay? If it’s religious-based opinion, 100% of Christians live in sin and God asks you to not pass judgement. So why are you actively living in your sin, my friend?
This was inspiring to watch. Those kids are so brave to fight for their happiness and the right to be themselves. I'm so happy that the trans community is getting empowered and is getting a voice! I'm so pleasantly surprised with several parents' positive reactions and acceptance if their kids.
even tho kye and his mother are fighting i think is good they still talk and im sure someday she will come around and accpet her son. all of this ppl are so beutiful and a true insperation for the world
Hi Josefina...thanks for your sentiments. Kye and I agree to disagree on some topics. However, at the end of the day, as Kye mentioned in the documentary, our relationship supercedes anything else. I love Kye and always will until I take my last breath. It was also a joy to meet the other cast members. We engaged in an aftershow that was aired shortly after the documentary, and it allowed each of us to give a deeper perspective. It's not easy at all to embrace change but I try each day to do what God guides me to do. Always speak the truth with grace and love!
@@drroschmidt9180 Stop making Kye's transition about yourself!! HE said he is a man, so he is. Yes you birthed him and that will never change no matter what his gender is! Don't you see your behavior and refusal to call him by his gender hurts him? Even in your response, you didn't refer to Kye with male pronouns. What kind of mother doesn't do absolutely EVERYTHING to make their child happy?! It's not hard to use the correct pronouns when talking about him. Stop being selfish. You're mindset is transphobic and while Kye will never say this to you because he loves you, I will say it because you are hurting that poor child. You're going to push him to the brink because he will feel so isolated that he might hurt himself and that would be 100% YOUR fault. My heart breaks for Kye and it's sad you can see how much pain HE is in yet you won't change your ways... Why does a stranger have your SON'S best interests in mind more than you, his own mother? Take time to educate yourself, research and more than that, just LISTEN TO KYE!!! Stop being ignorant and transphobic.
Watching these women and men I want to hold them and let them know that people outside their families support them as well. The world is cruel regardless people are always critical and words are violence too. I send you love and support you in your truth. God does not make mistakes we are different with purpose.
Everyone in this is so beautiful.I'm very jealous of all the people who can transition and happily be their true selves.Hopefully one day I can do the same.❤️
No one hates --' No one gives a fuck actually. That's the point, you're talking about a demographic that represents 2% of the population. We're just *fed up* of being forcefed dysphoria suffering people propaganda ALL DAY LONG.
I am not brave. I am simply standing on the shoulders of those like the people in Compton cafeteria or Stonewall. I am not brave,bravery something that happened in the 60s when you would be arrested for simply going out of your house in drag. I am not brave. There a laws today that state if you are to discriminate against transgender individuals you can be arrested and of fired. I am not brave. Even if the minds of those in a small southern town are changing because of tireless researchers on the subject since before I was bore. So no, I am not brave, I am simply standing on the shoulders of giants.
Brave? I know cis men who are brave to carry around their fragile balls. These transgender people can be what they want. I do not care nor see them as any more brave because of their looks or genitals. That would be unequal and shallow, even. They're cool, though. As cool as cis people.
This is a CORRECTION to a previous comment: Even though they showed footage of Ari when he was little, he looked like a little boy, just with long hair. So glad that all the people in this documentary are now able to be themselves and feel proud!
When this originally came out in 2015 it gave me the courage to come out myself. I was 22 at the time and already dressing very masculine. Had been since I was 13 and had honestly socially transitioned but just hadn't placed a name on it. I knew the name I had since an episode of 20/20, with a transman who had a wife and family, when I was 8. He was happy and healthy and going for bottom surgery. But back to Ms Lavern Cox and this documentary. Because of you MTV I am alive. After I finally came out it took me three months to get on T and have been on it for two and a half. Six months after T I found out I had PCOS and that I had had it since my first puberty. So I had to have a hysto and overectomy three months later I had my mammogram for top surgery and found out that if I wasn't having top surgery I would have had to go in for biopsy. Turns out at 24 I was precancerous for breast cancer, and the findings of my hysto came back saying I was precancerous for cervical and ovarian cancer the cysts that I had were made of cancer. In a lot of ways you saved me MTV. Because you helped me make my first step into surgical transition. I am really glad that I can tell you that. -Logan
Finally time. So excited and scared for you, young trans people! As a gay the only weak comparison I can make is a young gay in the 70s - to live on the cusp of such an historic time. Enviable, terrifying, unimaginable. Cannot wait to watch you infiltrate and dominate these spaces, piss *everyone* off, and get those rights! Also more than curious to see what the numbers look like when you all start really coming out.
Apocalypse The Destroyer You sound truly pathetic. You're actually insulting the appearence of somebody you've never seen? Thats laughable. What a sad, childish and idiotic individual you seem to be. Please get in touch with your humanity.
It’s interesting you mentioned that because I have a gay friend and I asked him what he thinks about the trans ban in the military and he responded “I don’t. Gay people and trans people are completely different and the ‘T’ should not be attached to LGBTQ”.. pretty interesting thought. That’s never something I’ve considered before.
I remember when this first came on MTV. I was a Junior in high school and I was still in misery not being allowed to transition because my mom was definitely not okay with me presenting myself as the person I always knew I was. I’m proud to see this again for the first time in 7 years. It’s incredibly phenomenal. 🤩🤩🤩🤩
RCI Yet you can't manage to receive a proper education, that's what is truly disgusting you and your sickening and ignorant comments. If you have nothing nice to say then do not comment.
This is my favorite documentary I understand everyone in this world now I don't know who or what I am I'm just a male with an unidentifiable sexuality, I love everyone and everything on this world and its so wrong how some people have so much hate it doesn't matter who you are, it doesn't matter what you have, your personality is what really matters and I don't want to be around a hateful person do you honestly expect someone to love you note for being like this like why can't you get that through your head!?! I have been questioned on how I feel about the transgender community for example: "would you care if you were dating someone for a long time and they came out to you as a trans?" No I would not I don't see them any different than the person I love, I really want to make an impact on this world. I will support anyone on what the believe in. I love you! And thank you Laverne Cox for presenting this wonderful documentary! I'm in tears.
this was so educational. I feel like trans-women are more at risk for violence after revealing if they want to be with a man. men, I think, think it "makes them gay" that they are attracted to or didn't know right off the bat that the woman they are with/want to be with was "born a man". thank you for all this important information!
Great documentary. The part around 35 minutes where Daniela gets emotional feeling the pain of people who will be where she was... Ugh I wanted to hug her. What a kind, beautiful soul.
Hi from EVE in the UK, I transitioned twenty years ago, when people say you are what god made you I saw have you seen God and if they are truthful they would say NO, we are real people and you can see us, so live and let live and get on with your own life and let us live as we should be .
Even though they showed footage of Ariana when she was little, she looked like a boy who long hair. So glad that all the people here are able to be themselves and feel proud!
flutelover1913 HIS name is Ari and HE is a boy. you literally just fucked up your 'supportive reply' to this with the way you worded it by misgenderimg and dead naming him
Sage Casey Ok. I'm not going to step out of character to address your reply. It was an honest oversight, and I obviously wasn't trying to offend anyone. The fact that you chose to correct someone that you don't even know with the use of profanity and a condescending attitude really shows how mature you are. Again, I meant no offense in my comment. A small error and your negative response will not stop me from being an advocate of civil rights for transgendered men and women. Thanks!
Sage Casey I accept your apology. I humble my heart to try to understand just how difficult life can be for transgender people. Please try to remember that not all of us are out to hurt or hinder. XOXO
Us trans people can get seriously defensive, after hearing this kind of thing our whole life it can be hard to be diplomatic sometimes. I understand that you're doing your best to be supportive, and that's awesome(!!), but a couple small errors to some can be very hurtful and offensive to others, thus the occasional lashing out. It's really nice to see an exchange not end in threats on this comment section good on everyone for relatively keeping it down over here ^__^
@@aishawoods2152 Well I'm a parent too and I don't have gay or trangender children I have straight children but I am a lesbian mom and I disagree with Tye's mom and you because she can't even begin to understand what your son/daughter is going through and she should to stop being so damn closeminded based on indoctrinated religion which is a cancer to the black community and try to understand her chid . A mom is supposed to love her child unconditionally . Smfh
Having a child who is trans is much better than losing your relationship with them or even worse losing them completely, people really need to learn to love and appreciate what they have before its too late.
A difficult subject? For those dealing with the issues, truly more than for those witnessing, or spectating. My heart goes out to all those who struggle to be who they know they truly are. Peace and power to all you beautiful people
No one should have to be afraid of living their true authentic self. So glad these group of wonerful men and women are happy just being themseles. #alllivesmatter
I am a cis female and I have faith in the next generation. Our parents and grandparents may refuse to see the TRUTH and accept it, but in 2050 (I'm really reaching here) Our children and grandchildren will think of LGBTQ as normal as straight because of shows like this and how WE raise them and what we teach them. This is only the beginning. Thanks MTV
I agree that people should be treated the same but if LGBTQ was as normal as being straight then the world population will go down massively. The way we were created for a female and male is so we can reproduce.
Magestic_snowflake212 That doesn't sound like the worst thing in the world. Even if 50% of the world were gay and 50% we're straight the human race would still never go extinct. It would also probably completely eliminate the possibility of over population. This is why I always say the excuse intolerant people give about humans all dying out if more and more people accept being gay is absolute bull shit. It's never going to impact our lives to a drastic point. Too many babies are born all over the world every day.
All of these people are so beautiful I just hope that if any trans people see this, to just ignore anyone who bullies you and keep being the strong man or woman that you want to be xxxx
thank you MTV for producing this amazing video and it just makes everything more beautiful with Laverne Cox's hosting and all honest and brave souls featured in this doc. xxx Momo a transgirl from Hong Kong
This is a wonderful documentary that I use in my teaching. Would it be possible to get the subtitles activated on this video? It's really helpful to my students.
Daniella, I'm so sorry that you suffered this devastating assault. May you be safe, may you be at peace, may you be relieved of suffering. Peace be with you.
Really Good Topic. Glad I watched this. Black community hopefully will grow and learn from this 🙏 I despise Judging people because of their orientation, to me it's just as Fked Up as Racism. Let them Live without all that having to deal with Hatefulness, I've seen it.
this is great. look at all the positive comments on this video!!!! this is monumental. thanks mtv for doing this doc. laverne is inspiring and such a classy lady. the world is coming around. slowly but surely.
I love my kids. I loved their friends. Sometimes, their friends came out as homosexual. Sometimes, their friends came out as trans. Thank heavens I don’t care about anything except the beautiful soul inside. One thing they all know - including my kids - I gotta love. I love and support you no matter what ❤️
Coming out as trans has to be so hard for you guys , but keep your head up and live your truth . I’m trying to learn more so I will be informed and not be that friend that asks 99 questions because of ignorance. But you’re all beautiful spirits and that’s all that matters
I don't understand why people have problems with people who transition because it's the body that changes not the personality like how does it affect you if it's their body.
Supadupa Malt You shouldn't be afraid. They're people with no intention of harming you. They were just unfortunate enough to be born in a body that doesn't match their minds. However your previous point, "How can I accept them when they couldn't accept themselves?" is a bit incorrect. The entire point of transgenderism is that you weren't born the correct gender. Which means who you percieve them to be was never who they were to begin with and isn't what they should accept. It's all about pursuing your real self instead of complying with social standards and living miserable life. Meeting a transgender person in reality shouldn't be your standard for respecting transgender people as a community. You'd be letting one encounter speak for millions of people.
Supadupa Malt I hope you revisit your comment someday and realize just how ridiculous you sound. Calling an individual mentally ill and being afraid of them simply because YOU don’t understand , displays more signs of someone who has mental issues. God for bid you have a loved one or someone close to you who turns out to be a trans individual I’m pretty sure you wouldn’t want people to treat or see that individual as any less human than you are. Just Sayin ☺️
I wish shows would show more people during transition. Its great to talk about rich trans people with accepting families but a lot of us don't have those things and its hard to only see the people that have what you want represented.
I feel like these documentaries only show people who have already transitioned because when they "look like the gender they are" it's somehow more credible. I wish they would be more awareness that simply identifying as you do is enough to qualify whether you've transitioned in any way yet or not! It's always attractive people because if they are somehow so good at being there gender that they're attractive it makes them more valid and this is just superficial bullshit. We can't all be bodybuilder trans men and supermodel trans women and I hate how Society seems to hold us to a higher standard instead of just letting us be people and valid regardless.
I agree that shows should show people going through their transition. However, having money should not be associated with acceptance. Some of the people are not rich and some did not have acceptance. Kye didn’t have full acceptance. Zoeys family was not rich.
This particular documentary is powerfully multifaceted and beautifully poignant in the information and how the information is conveyed, but from a purely human standpoint I couldn't help but be touched on so many levels by the little girl's comment at 11:25 -not focused so much on the context of religion in the statement but even more so on the much larger message underlying it, which is the simplicity of how powerful unconditional love is when brought to these children by those they love from the start in shaping their experience of themselves in their journey and their lives and how every child (and every human) deserves that same unconditional love so much.
Wow great documentary I hope they keep doing more documentary about Trans women, I'm also a Trans Woman let us be heard and I'm notice a lot of changes in the trans community..
You know your priorities are fucked up when you come on video just to comment bullshit like "Mentally ill*" Yea, good for you go find another comment section to shit on, neckbeard.
Rosalina Ann right I first heard of her through the orange is the new black and I fell in love with her character and I seen her interview she is so beautiful inside and out
I'm 14 now.... Me as 5: Boy's clothes played with the trucks and blocks during playtime at school. Played with all boys. Me as 7: always tried to get away with not wearing a shirt and didn't. Always told my mom I'm a boy. Me as 12: starting puberty and watching videos on trans people and realising that's me. Came out. Me now: Out and I have a male haircut using male pronouns and name. I'm happier now. There is a lot more stuff I've done as a kid that scream "TRANNY" but it's a lot to share.
I feel bad for Kye because his mom is so unsupportive but I’m glad he’s still being himself it took me forever to do that. I hope all these people find love and support through their life ❤️
Jaycee Kills I cried. She reminded me of my Mom. Just rude and arrogant. I would have hung the phone up earlier than Kye did. I don't put up with ignorance...not even from Mother Dear.
@Jaycee Kills Thank you for sharing your perspective. I'm not certain that I understand how watching a 10 minute clip of my perspective and truth constitutes non-support of Kye. I'm a mom who has my own perspective and that will never include turning my back on Kye or not being loving. When I speak my truth, I always try to do so with love and grace. If I've failed in that area, an apology follows. The same is true of Kye. Have a productive year!
@@Moonewitch I pray that you'd never disrespect your mother in this manner. You're free to feel whatever you believe to be true of me. My prayers are with you!

They should have gone to prison!
What?! A student attacked somebody with a knife and only got suspended?! They should’ve been EXPELLED! They threatened somebody’s life! And if it was against a trans person then it’s likely a hate crime. Absolutely unacceptable. Wherever you go to school is messed up
That is fucked up he should be in jail

It’s okay to not go through with it too. I know some non-binary friends that chose not to I have surgery and they are making their way through life. Do what makes you feel safe, happy and whole.

This little girl in the pink dress is so cute . God she's going to do something very good in the world 😊
Zoey is a gorgeous little girl. Her mom must be proud.
I would be so proud if my future child ended up a letter of the LGBTQUIA.
Being trans and non-binary myself (I go by they/them pronouns) my coming out was slow and awkward and at some times definitely excruciating and painful at times. My mom didn’t understand what was going on with me and ended up accidentally locking me into the proverbial closet a few times.
If I have a kid who is more like me (currently: non-binary two-spirit they/them, somewhere in the middle of the Kinsey scale toward bisexual, polyamorous and demisexual [shout-out #DemiMoore and Savage x Fenty Demi cups, lol]) I want to be able to help them explore who they are so the world doesn’t define it for them as much as it’s been defined for me as a female-presenting person. 💜💖🖤💙♒️♊️☦️💟☮️
Fun fact: in the south, us queer Appalachians refer to the LGBTQUIA acronym as QUILTBAG, and I love that. Makes me think of beautiful AIDS quilts aunties would make for their just come out babies. #pflag
These kids have more gut and thicker skin than anyone I know. Kudos to their bravery and I hope we as a society will become more accepting one day. Very excited that there are people like Donnie (Avery's date)out there too, who care about the person and not their genitalia.
Thank you for doing this MTV. Please make more documentaries! Plus all the people who participated really deserve huge applause. It's 2016. We should know better.
Hi 👋 there juriamari.yes indeed 😀😀😀😎👍❤️💖
Yea juriamari.😊😃👍👍❤️🌈🌈
I love how you present this documentary, Laverne! It is very empowering and informative showing diverse trans people and their experiences! Spread more love, kindness, and respect to our differences as we only live once.
I'm a straight white woman and i have no problems with anyone doing or being who they are as long as no one is harming themselves or anyone else. Live your lives with happiness and pride in yourself. Find the love you deserve to have just as anyone else does. Discrimination out of ignorance and fear is never a positive thing.
Amen! That's how I was raised too, even before I knew what gay was, 20 years before coming out to myself or anyone.
@Hubris "leaps off a bridge , believes he's an eagle"??? She said AS LONG AS THEY DON'T HARM THEMSELVES OR ANYONE ELSE. Hate in your own heart is something YOU have to live with. You can't perpetuate your unhappiness onto people. Let it out. Be free!!
Hubris how is being gay harmful? I’m asking your opinion, respectfully. I can understand why approving hormones for young children before they’re brain and hormones are done forming - you can make that argument, I suppose. But I don’t get why it bothers you if someone is gay? If it’s religious-based opinion, 100% of Christians live in sin and God asks you to not pass judgement. So why are you actively living in your sin, my friend?
this Documentary made me cry I never understood why people are against people like this they are beautiful people just like the rest of us
Amen Jesse🙏🏼
Lol
I've ALWAYS loved Laverne and I think she's such a spectacular person. She's very kind, helpful and understanding.
lipglosskitten26 that is not a girl he was born a man. This so confusing for the generation coming
@@carenanderson3024 not confusing it makes sense SHE is a GIRL not a boy transphobic person shut up
@@24knqt i am entitle to my opinion my dear 🤷🏼♀️🤷🏼♀️🤷🏼♀️
Ari is such a hottie.
This was inspiring to watch. Those kids are so brave to fight for their happiness and the right to be themselves. I'm so happy that the trans community is getting empowered and is getting a voice! I'm so pleasantly surprised with several parents' positive reactions and acceptance if their kids.
even tho kye and his mother are fighting i think is good they still talk and im sure someday she will come around and accpet her son. all of this ppl are so beutiful and a true insperation for the world
Hi Josefina...thanks for your sentiments. Kye and I agree to disagree on some topics. However, at the end of the day, as Kye mentioned in the documentary, our relationship supercedes anything else. I love Kye and always will until I take my last breath. It was also a joy to meet the other cast members. We engaged in an aftershow that was aired shortly after the documentary, and it allowed each of us to give a deeper perspective. It's not easy at all to embrace change but I try each day to do what God guides me to do. Always speak the truth with grace and love!
@@drroschmidt9180 Stop making Kye's transition about yourself!! HE said he is a man, so he is. Yes you birthed him and that will never change no matter what his gender is! Don't you see your behavior and refusal to call him by his gender hurts him? Even in your response, you didn't refer to Kye with male pronouns. What kind of mother doesn't do absolutely EVERYTHING to make their child happy?! It's not hard to use the correct pronouns when talking about him. Stop being selfish. You're mindset is transphobic and while Kye will never say this to you because he loves you, I will say it because you are hurting that poor child. You're going to push him to the brink because he will feel so isolated that he might hurt himself and that would be 100% YOUR fault. My heart breaks for Kye and it's sad you can see how much pain HE is in yet you won't change your ways... Why does a stranger have your SON'S best interests in mind more than you, his own mother? Take time to educate yourself, research and more than that, just LISTEN TO KYE!!! Stop being ignorant and transphobic.
Watching these women and men I want to hold them and let them know that people outside their families support them as well. The world is cruel regardless people are always critical and words are violence too. I send you love and support you in your truth. God does not make mistakes we are different with purpose.
everybody in this documentary is freaking amazing and Laverne hosting it? YASSS
queer lofi obviously she's hosting it she's one of the most well known and respected transgender individuals right now
Everyone in this is so beautiful.I'm very jealous of all the people who can transition and happily be their true selves.Hopefully one day I can do the same.❤️
Trash can . . . I hope so, you just really have to want IT. .
People who love you will support u unconditionally! Good luck either way
Have you?
What a great documentary. I'll never understand why people feel such hatred for these beautiful brave people.
No one hates --' No one gives a fuck actually. That's the point, you're talking about a demographic that represents 2% of the population.
We're just *fed up* of being forcefed dysphoria suffering people propaganda ALL DAY LONG.
That must be very hard for you
I am not brave. I am simply standing on the shoulders of those like the people in Compton cafeteria or Stonewall. I am not brave,bravery something that happened in the 60s when you would be arrested for simply going out of your house in drag. I am not brave. There a laws today that state if you are to discriminate against transgender individuals you can be arrested and of fired. I am not brave. Even if the minds of those in a small southern town are changing because of tireless researchers on the subject since before I was bore. So no, I am not brave, I am simply standing on the shoulders of giants.
Emile knows what's in the hearts of everyone. Also didn't watch this documentary obviously
Brave? I know cis men who are brave to carry around their fragile balls. These transgender people can be what they want. I do not care nor see them as any more brave because of their looks or genitals. That would be unequal and shallow, even. They're cool, though. As cool as cis people.
This is a CORRECTION to a previous comment: Even though they showed footage of Ari when he was little, he looked like a little boy, just with long hair. So glad that all the people in this documentary are now able to be themselves and feel proud!
Transgender people make me beleive that a soul exists. Love yall.
Didn't touch on housing and job discriminations...maybe this could become a series?
What a beautiful and informative documentary. They are all beautiful and should be treated with respect.
i cried like three times. good documentary
When this originally came out in 2015 it gave me the courage to come out myself. I was 22 at the time and already dressing very masculine. Had been since I was 13 and had honestly socially transitioned but just hadn't placed a name on it. I knew the name I had since an episode of 20/20, with a transman who had a wife and family, when I was 8. He was happy and healthy and going for bottom surgery.
But back to Ms Lavern Cox and this documentary. Because of you MTV I am alive. After I finally came out it took me three months to get on T and have been on it for two and a half. Six months after T I found out I had PCOS and that I had had it since my first puberty. So I had to have a hysto and overectomy three months later I had my mammogram for top surgery and found out that if I wasn't having top surgery I would have had to go in for biopsy. Turns out at 24 I was precancerous for breast cancer, and the findings of my hysto came back saying I was precancerous for cervical and ovarian cancer the cysts that I had were made of cancer. In a lot of ways you saved me MTV. Because you helped me make my first step into surgical transition.
I am really glad that I can tell you that.

11:16 "oh ok ill see you there too" DAMNNNNN SHES 12 AND ALREADY SO SAVAGEEE
Brave is facing life with what your originally equipped with . Not running away . Cox
Finally time. So excited and scared for you, young trans people! As a gay the only weak comparison I can make is a young gay in the 70s - to live on the cusp of such an historic time. Enviable, terrifying, unimaginable. Cannot wait to watch you infiltrate and dominate these spaces, piss *everyone* off, and get those rights! Also more than curious to see what the numbers look like when you all start really coming out.
Apocalypse The Destroyer You sound truly pathetic. You're actually insulting the appearence of somebody you've never seen? Thats laughable. What a sad, childish and idiotic individual you seem to be. Please get in touch with your humanity.
It’s interesting you mentioned that because I have a gay friend and I asked him what he thinks about the trans ban in the military and he responded “I don’t. Gay people and trans people are completely different and the ‘T’ should not be attached to LGBTQ”.. pretty interesting thought. That’s never something I’ve considered before.
I remember when this first came on MTV. I was a Junior in high school and I was still in misery not being allowed to transition because my mom was definitely not okay with me presenting myself as the person I always knew I was. I’m proud to see this again for the first time in 7 years. It’s incredibly phenomenal. 🤩🤩🤩🤩
Laverne Cox is an amazing woman
I came to the comments to see what negativity existed.
Y'all fr warmed my heart. I love this so much and I need so much more of this in my life 😍
Every person in this video is so beautiful 😻
Zoey is the most beautiful. Such a gorgeous kid! A kid that any parent would be so proud of.
You are not
you people are fuckin sickening
RCI Yet you can't manage to receive a proper education, that's what is truly disgusting you and your sickening and ignorant comments. If you have nothing nice to say then do not comment.
Euphoriastic no one asked for you to reply to a comment I left a month ago
I'm so happy when they find love everyone deserves to be happy
This is my favorite documentary I understand everyone in this world now I don't know who or what I am I'm just a male with an unidentifiable sexuality, I love everyone and everything on this world and its so wrong how some people have so much hate it doesn't matter who you are, it doesn't matter what you have, your personality is what really matters and I don't want to be around a hateful person do you honestly expect someone to love you note for being like this like why can't you get that through your head!?! I have been questioned on how I feel about the transgender community for example: "would you care if you were dating someone for a long time and they came out to you as a trans?" No I would not I don't see them any different than the person I love, I really want to make an impact on this world. I will support anyone on what the believe in. I love you! And thank you Laverne Cox for presenting this wonderful documentary! I'm in tears.
this men and women are so strong. I cannot imagine what they go through just trying to be themselves. wish them only love and a happy life.
this was so educational. I feel like trans-women are more at risk for violence after revealing if they want to be with a man. men, I think, think it "makes them gay" that they are attracted to or didn't know right off the bat that the woman they are with/want to be with was "born a man". thank you for all this important information!
Chrystal Vanner , I'm different I always only wanted to be female but solo, or maybe a lesbian that I could see. . .
Great documentary. The part around 35 minutes where Daniela gets emotional feeling the pain of people who will be where she was... Ugh I wanted to hug her. What a kind, beautiful soul.
This is probably the only good documentary mtv has posted!
I thought "White People" was also really good. I found myself wishing it had been a little longer.
Bradley P agreed
Hi from EVE in the UK, I transitioned twenty years ago, when people say you are what god made you I saw have you seen God and if they are truthful they would say NO, we are real people and you can see us, so live and let live and get on with your own life and let us live as we should be .
Even though they showed footage of Ariana when she was little, she looked like a boy who long hair. So glad that all the people here are able to be themselves and feel proud!
flutelover1913 HIS name is Ari and HE is a boy. you literally just fucked up your 'supportive reply' to this with the way you worded it by misgenderimg and dead naming him
Sage Casey Ok. I'm not going to step out of character to address your reply. It was an honest oversight, and I obviously wasn't trying to offend anyone. The fact that you chose to correct someone that you don't even know with the use of profanity and a condescending attitude really shows how mature you are. Again, I meant no offense in my comment. A small error and your negative response will not stop me from being an advocate of civil rights for transgendered men and women. Thanks!
I'm sorry love, I myself am trans and sometimes seeing stuff like this frustrates me. I meant no harm, myself and do deeply apologize.
Sage Casey I accept your apology. I humble my heart to try to understand just how difficult life can be for transgender people. Please try to remember that not all of us are out to hurt or hinder. XOXO
Us trans people can get seriously defensive, after hearing this kind of thing our whole life it can be hard to be diplomatic sometimes. I understand that you're doing your best to be supportive, and that's awesome(!!), but a couple small errors to some can be very hurtful and offensive to others, thus the occasional lashing out.
It's really nice to see an exchange not end in threats on this comment section good on everyone for
relatively keeping it down over here ^__^
this is the most respectful, realistic documentary on the lives of trans people that i've seen yet. absolutely love it
Kye's Mom is so closed minded and when he was just pouring his heart out, she was just sitting there with a smile on her face. That is just so sad.
No she's not she told her truth and as a parent I agree with her
@@aishawoods2152 Your children have my pity.
Yup his mom's stubborness was pissing me off . 😠
@@aishawoods2152 Well I'm a parent too and I don't have gay or trangender children I have straight children but I am a lesbian mom and I disagree with Tye's mom and you because she can't even begin to understand what your son/daughter is going through and she should to stop being so damn closeminded based on indoctrinated religion which is a cancer to the black community and try to understand her chid . A mom is supposed to love her child unconditionally . Smfh
@@Kevin15047 Yea she's a jackass just like Tye's mom . Smgfh
Having a child who is trans is much better than losing your relationship with them or even worse losing them completely, people really need to learn to love and appreciate what they have before its too late.
only 9 mins In an I love this docu
A difficult subject? For those dealing with the issues, truly more than for those witnessing, or spectating. My heart goes out to all those who struggle to be who they know they truly are. Peace and power to all you beautiful people
Kye is just the cutest ! :)
No one should have to be afraid of living their true authentic self. So glad these group of wonerful men and women are happy just being themseles. #alllivesmatter
All the couples in this documentary made my heart burst with the feels omg
I love love 💕💕💕
Wow!!!! All of these people are so beautiful and amazing. Thank you for such a raw and eye opening documentary. ❤🧡💛💚💙💜❤🧡💛💚💙💜
I am a cis female and I have faith in the next generation. Our parents and grandparents may refuse to see the TRUTH and accept it, but in 2050 (I'm really reaching here) Our children and grandchildren will think of LGBTQ as normal as straight because of shows like this and how WE raise them and what we teach them. This is only the beginning. Thanks MTV
I agree that people should be treated the same but if LGBTQ was as normal as being straight then the world population will go down massively. The way we were created for a female and male is so we can reproduce.
Magestic_snowflake212 That doesn't sound like the worst thing in the world. Even if 50% of the world were gay and 50% we're straight the human race would still never go extinct. It would also probably completely eliminate the possibility of over population. This is why I always say the excuse intolerant people give about humans all dying out if more and more people accept being gay is absolute bull shit. It's never going to impact our lives to a drastic point. Too many babies are born all over the world every day.
Mmala Mokone Hopefully you're right. But I'd like to point out that transgender people already have been around for centuries. Do a bit of research.
Some of the bravest, truest people on Earth!!!💙💙💙
All of these people are so beautiful I just hope that if any trans people see this, to just ignore anyone who bullies you and keep being the strong man or woman that you want to be xxxx
thank you MTV for producing this amazing video and it just makes everything more beautiful with Laverne Cox's hosting and all honest and brave souls featured in this doc.

Shane and his GF made me cry! So adorable!
I live in NOLA and L'lerret is so right.... keep doing you girl
This is a wonderful documentary that I use in my teaching. Would it be possible to get the subtitles activated on this video? It's really helpful to my students.
Thank you for doing so !!
wow they are such a beautiful bunch of people with really bright and interesting personalities.....
Laverne is everything. so poised and beautiful.
Daniella, I'm so sorry that you suffered this devastating assault. May you be safe, may you be at peace, may you be relieved of suffering.
Peace be with you.
Really Good Topic.
Glad I watched this.
Black community hopefully will grow and learn from this 🙏
I despise Judging people because of their orientation, to me it's just as Fked Up as Racism. Let them Live without all that having to deal with Hatefulness, I've seen it.
Im in the same situation as kye but my mum doesn't accept it at all, it's really a struggle.
iiampharaoh, Don't give up it will make you really happy.
Dont do it..😔
this is great. look at all the positive comments on this video!!!! this is monumental. thanks mtv for doing this doc. laverne is inspiring and such a classy lady. the world is coming around. slowly but surely.
I love my kids. I loved their friends. Sometimes, their friends came out as homosexual. Sometimes, their friends came out as trans. Thank heavens I don’t care about anything except the beautiful soul inside. One thing they all know - including my kids - I gotta love. I love and support you no matter what ❤️
Beautiful stories, beautiful human beings ❤️
Coming out as trans has to be so hard for you guys , but keep your head up and live your truth . I’m trying to learn more so I will be informed and not be that friend that asks 99 questions because of ignorance. But you’re all beautiful spirits and that’s all that matters
I don't understand why people have problems with people who transition because it's the body that changes not the personality like how does it affect you if it's their body.
Supadupa Malt just respect them and be a nice person call them by the right pronouns please
Supadupa Malt You shouldn't be afraid. They're people with no intention of harming you. They were just unfortunate enough to be born in a body that doesn't match their minds. However your previous point, "How can I accept them when they couldn't accept themselves?" is a bit incorrect. The entire point of transgenderism is that you weren't born the correct gender. Which means who you percieve them to be was never who they were to begin with and isn't what they should accept. It's all about pursuing your real self instead of complying with social standards and living miserable life. Meeting a transgender person in reality shouldn't be your standard for respecting transgender people as a community. You'd be letting one encounter speak for millions of people.
Dysphoria is a medical condition, clinically speaking. Its not a mental illness. Not that mental illness is something that makes someone a bad person.
Supadupa Malt I hope you revisit your comment someday and realize just how ridiculous you sound. Calling an individual mentally ill and being afraid of them simply because YOU don’t understand , displays more signs of someone who has mental issues. God for bid you have a loved one or someone close to you who turns out to be a trans individual I’m pretty sure you wouldn’t want people to treat or see that individual as any less human than you are. Just
Sayin ☺️
The personality does change.
Shout out to Zoey's amazing, super-supportive mom!
I wish shows would show more people during transition. Its great to talk about rich trans people with accepting families but a lot of us don't have those things and its hard to only see the people that have what you want represented.
I feel like these documentaries only show people who have already transitioned because when they "look like the gender they are" it's somehow more credible. I wish they would be more awareness that simply identifying as you do is enough to qualify whether you've transitioned in any way yet or not! It's always attractive people because if they are somehow so good at being there gender that they're attractive it makes them more valid and this is just superficial bullshit. We can't all be bodybuilder trans men and supermodel trans women and I hate how Society seems to hold us to a higher standard instead of just letting us be people and valid regardless.
I agree that shows should show people going through their transition. However, having money should not be associated with acceptance. Some of the people are not rich and some did not have acceptance. Kye didn’t have full acceptance. Zoeys family was not rich.
Everyone of these kids are so beautiful inside and out. 😭😍 great doc!
Omg zoey is so beautiful 😍
Isn't she gorgeous! If she was my daughter I would be so proud of her. Her mom must be so proud.
Anthony Voiers ikr? She's gorgeous❤️
Anthony Voiers She's precious!
This program won an Emmy Award for Outstanding Special Class Special.
kye is so cute awww and I feel so sad for him when I saw the part with his mom .
This particular documentary is powerfully multifaceted and beautifully poignant in the information and how the information is conveyed, but from a purely human standpoint I couldn't help but be touched on so many levels by the little girl's comment at 11:25 -not focused so much on the context of religion in the statement but even more so on the much larger message underlying it, which is the simplicity of how powerful unconditional love is when brought to these children by those they love from the start in shaping their experience of themselves in their journey and their lives and how every child (and every human) deserves that same unconditional love so much.
Nice baby Zoey "I'll see you there" 😙😘😚
laverne is queen
Wow great documentary I hope they keep doing more documentary about Trans women, I'm also a Trans Woman let us be heard and I'm notice a lot of changes in the trans community..
Ellen M, remember : " I am woman hear me roar too important to ignore ." ( Gloria Gaynor) ? ? ? . .
I'm a pre-t trans guy and I love how real and relatable this documentary is. The downside that it's so real that it hurts.
Lavern Cox is amazing
Justin Nunez *mentally ill
She's a beautiful and courageous woman, isn't she?
You know your priorities are fucked up when you come on video just to comment bullshit like "Mentally ill*" Yea, good for you go find another comment section to shit on, neckbeard.
Rosalina Ann right I first heard of her through the orange is the new black and I fell in love with her character and I seen her interview she is so beautiful inside and out
Lavern I’m sorry....u look like a man with a wig ...you was born a man .....to never be a WOMAN
I love you Ms. Laverne!!! I cried watching your show. We’re all human and should be treated as such. 😩😢💕😍
Very informative. love Lavern!
laverne is so gorgeous and powerful
When did MTV become cool again?
It didn't. Hasn't been since the early 90's.
It's not. People just became more stupid. They have hit a new low.
Really, Truly, a Marvellous Documentary! And, Ms Cox is The Best...!!! xoxox
I'm 14 now....
Me as 5: Boy's clothes played with the trucks and blocks during playtime at school. Played with all boys.
Me as 7: always tried to get away with not wearing a shirt and didn't. Always told my mom I'm a boy.
Me as 12: starting puberty and watching videos on trans people and realising that's me. Came out.
Me now: Out and I have a male haircut using male pronouns and name. I'm happier now.
There is a lot more stuff I've done as a kid that scream "TRANNY" but it's a lot to share.
this was so beautiful
I feel bad for Kye because his mom is so unsupportive but I’m glad he’s still being himself it took me forever to do that. I hope all these people find love and support through their life ❤️
Jaycee Kills I cried. She reminded me of my Mom. Just rude and arrogant. I would have hung the phone up earlier than Kye did. I don't put up with ignorance...not even from Mother Dear.
@Jaycee Kills Thank you for sharing your perspective. I'm not certain that I understand how watching a 10 minute clip of my perspective and truth constitutes non-support of Kye. I'm a mom who has my own perspective and that will never include turning my back on Kye or not being loving. When I speak my truth, I always try to do so with love and grace. If I've failed in that area, an apology follows. The same is true of Kye. Have a productive year!
@@Moonewitch I pray that you'd never disrespect your mother in this manner. You're free to feel whatever you believe to be true of me. My prayers are with you!

Zoe is an amazing young lady. Wishing her and all the Trans people in this documentary the best for the future.
Loved this documentary! Laverne you are amazing! RISE ya'll! You are all strong and beautiful!
Let's just remember, if you see people in this comment section being unnecessarily rude, it's best you don't comment. Don't feed the monsters.
