True but you could have a little picnic blanket and enjoy your cake! Watch out for seagulls though, I assume this is all covered in the song.... right?
@@hillabwonS i mean fair ig, and that probably is how i actually am (its never 100% of both tho :P) im going with trans for now though cus that seems like the closest fit
My mother recently started to avoid calling me by gendered terms (mostly things like "your brother/sister" when talking to my siblings) but because there isnt really a word for "sibling" in my language she comes up with increasingly creative synonyms for it. Its really cute ^^
The older generation getting upset over gender non-conforming is so weird to me. Some people I know have a son and he was talking about how much he loved my daughters Pikachu themed dress. I made a comment about how they should buy him one too since he likes it so much. I cannot exaggerate when I tell you they went on for about 15 minutes about how he was a boy and that dresses are for girls and that he was never going to wear a dress. Both of these children in question are 6 years old
Yeah! Like, what's the harm done by someone amab wearing a dress? I work with little kids in childcare and one of the boys occasionally will show up in a dress - and literally no one cares. Not his kid's parents, not my colleagues or the other kids. It's like: that's what he wanted to wear that day.
Do they know the show Pikachu is a boy? (you can tell by the tail) Also, how does a dress threaten masculinity? Do they fear that feminists might lunge at the sight of a dude in a skirt, and dive under it to cut off his balls?
When I was a child, I was OBSESSED with Sir Elton John. I told my mother I would marry him. She told me I couldn't, because he was gay and only liked boys. Jokes on you, mom! I'm trans! And also still a bit obsessed with S.E.J., but now I do drag in outfits inspired by him!
17:06 The cis boy ball goes from straight to hetero-flexible which is under the bi umbrella (basically bi but with a very strong preference for the 'opposite' gender OR hetero but with some exceptions) hence the middle bit peeling to reveal the hetro-flexible flag. Incase anyone was wondering why the comic may have been made like that and not the cracking egg style we typically see.
At least to my understanding (as a late 20s ace person who is still trying to learn the memes) the “ace is scheming” thing is kind of an extension of the general joke of “aces are like: who has time for romance when you can X”, mixed with the ongoing joke of them taking over Denmark due to sheer population size that is statistically likely to be acespec ~ Frankly I love it 😂 especially since it also defects from the idea of ace spec individuals being squishy uwu naive folks due to lack of sexual or romantic attraction being misconceived as being unaware. As for blending the gender fluid, I can’t begin to decipher that lolol
Wait, can you explain the Denmark thing for me? Are there more ace people in Denmark, or is it that the estimated population of ace people is the same as Denmark? I assume it's one of those 2 but I've never heard of this lol
@@ame1ias_wife Simply chemitry. Mix two genderfluids to see wether or not they mix and what happens to their genders. Turns out, the individual gender parts of the genderfluid are polarizing, making the outcome Bigender. Thanks for the dragon, now can you tell me where i can find the nearest Garlic bread factory?
17:36 More specifically, the black-and-white straight flag with a narrow rainbow stripe in the middle is for heteroflexible, or basically, "mostly straight with a few exceptions".
@@Xanderj89 I wouldn't say that. Heteroflexible does fall under the bi umbrella. I can imagine people choosing it over bi to make it clear that even though they can sometimes be attracted to the same gender, it's pretty rare for them, so others shouldn't count on it. In that way, it's just a more accurate descriptor.
@@Xanderj89there's also homoflexible so that would be internalized biphobia in your eyes too? There's a lot of other -flexible labels, even biflexible! when you're bi but sometimes you feel attraction to just one gender, using flexible it's just a way of saying "I'm mostly attracted to X gender, but sometimes I'm attracted to Y gender, but being attracted to Y gender is such a rare occurrence that i don't consider myself bi" still it's classified as a type of bis3×al so it's not biphobia, just a microlabel
I wish we would just let them! I think most older generations still see interactions between sexes as having to have a net-win turnout, like the 'niceguy' who thinks he pays compliments to gain sex. So men and women seeing each other as equals would erase that, which is why they hate gender equality (and also same sex relationships), because it's no longer able to be dumbed down into: he pays her for this, so he deserves this, she gives this to him, to earn her (safety, living, food, shelter...) The controls shift. Sorry I can't explain it clearer, I'm off to bed now. Maybe I can edit tomorrow.
I remember my mom telling me that when she was pregnant with me she wasn’t fussed if she had a boy or a girl as long as I was healthy .. Plot twist , 19 years later I tell her I’m FTM and she’s hysterical and tried to get me sectioned. 2nd Plot twist , 7 years later , I am working in the shop she comes into in the shopping centre after being estranged and she tells my co worker “the man at the door is putting out joggers, do you have them in black “ I’m that man mom, have a great life
Yep. My spawn points "totally didn't care about your gender, we just wanted you to be healthy" adamantly insist that my gender (ie my assigned sex) is super super important. Also I'm not healthy but they refuse to accept that either. Shocker, our relationship is a total sham and they know almost nothing about the real me.
@@jimmybobsqusher5897 OPs Mom didn't care about his gender when she was pregnant, but when he came out as trans she tried to get him hospitalized. Years later she didn't recognize him in a store and called him a man.
WILD journey. I hope she's learned how to be a better person to other trans people, even if you never get to a place where you feel safe being around her again.
One of the running jokes of asexuality is that because we aren't thinking about sex, we have time to think about other things... Like world domination. You know.... Just as an example. Not super sure what ace was doing to Genderfluid, though.
i had to come out to my dad as trans twice because the first time he convinced himself it was a "phase". the second time i came out to him, he literally told me as much. there was about 1-2 years between both times, and it took him around 3 years more to actually become supportive, but im glad after the second time he accepted it and started at least trying to gender me correctly and use my chosen name
The "what happened to friendship" about gay people dating, is so funny to me because it often stems from the person not having ever picked up on gay coded relationship in media back when they weren't allowed to show it clearly so suddenly they're like "why are all those friendships suddenly turning gay".....because they were always super gay.
@@missnaomi613 There's actually a whole tradition of interpretation that reads the adam/human as intersex before Eve is created. The word for 'rib' is usually translated side, so it's probably less of a "created from a tiny piece of" vibe and more of a "split down the middle" vibe. Plus, the word for "helper" that Eve is created as is almost always applied to God. This ain't a story of God creating servants for men, no matter how much conservative Christians want to make it one. - from a queer, ordained, Hebrew Bible scholar :)
"No balls in women's stalls" Me to my little sister: "Well I guess you have to use the men's restroom because we have no where to put your bouncy ball"
Meanwhile, as an asexual trans woman: "Yes, that gay couple is nice, but I ship those two straight girls together! Also, the male lead and his male rival! Their rivalry is actually love because they can't recognize their feelings! Also, I'm not saying the character is actually trans, but this episode is totally a trans allegory! She spent the entire episode voice training and learning how to socialize! She even has a deadname!" For the record, not talking about the same show for all three.
>> "Their rivalry is actually love because they can't recognize their feelings!" Huh?? It doesnt even matter if the ship is straight or gay its just that this dynamic just infuriates me. If they are arch enemies, they are arch enemies, you cant force love and say "they just cant see it yet", they would have seen it if they actually DID love eachother and werent arch enemies... >> "I ship those two straight girls together!" Im not straight nor a women but this is just wrong. You cant ship two STRAIGHT women together, if they are straight it means they are attracted to the opposite gender, so shipping them is also technically forcing.
@@rinkuraku5251 yes i do understand what shipping is, its just it doesnt feel right to me for two arch enemies to be shipped, it just doesnt make that much sense. Yes, i guess maybe thats fine in some way, and maybe its my opinion. But the "i ship those two straight girls together" is as bad if not worse.
@@samtheking5759 what exactly is wrong with it anyway? Like half of the anime made in the past forever deliberately teases ships like this. Even the original Gundam deliberately did this with amuro and char.
Yay, a new video to watch! I needed it today, since there was an incident at my school lgbtq+ club😕some boys from the school keep on entering the club and sitting down, making members uncomfortable, crowding the door and one time throwing rocks at the wall outside in an attempt to intimidate us all😢My school has become pretty homophobic recently, people are just allowed to walk around using the F slur so it's not too great. And I've even heard kids talking to the teachers about not accepting trans kids, and the teachers agreed! I cannot wait for Uni, I have looked around a few times and I can tell it is more accepting.
That sounds awful!!! I hate that people are trying to make you uncomfortable in a space that's supposed to make you feel safe. Hope you find somewhere where you can be yourself
Is it possible to get a councelor or a parent involved? Teachers are paid to keep all students safe and educated, so openly siding against certain students is a no go! I'm very sorry this is happening, I hope the club can keep each other company and lift each other up. You're a wonderful, valid person and deserve kindness and respect! 🫂❤🩹🏳🌈🏳⚧
Crows can talk but it requires a process called "freeing their tongue" Is it immoral to train a murder of crows to say things like "run" or "they are coming for you" and release them on a hiking trail late at night?
I just looked up what freeing the tongue meant, and that is absolutely fucked, it literally means to split the tongue of a crow, and it does not actually result in a bird that can talk
Also, from googling, you are almost word for word repeating a Tumblr post by crack--attack Their post saying "Fun fact! Crows can talk just like parrots do! It requires a process called "freeing their tongue" (don't ask) but yes I want to train a flock of them to say "Run" and release them onto a hiking trail"
At Christmas last year, my uncle and dad were making transphobic jokes, and my brother laughed--I think because that's easier than the awkwardness of not--and it was just so uncomfortable and stressful for me. I'm still not out, because they've gone and made it clear that they're not going to accept me, and that just sucks.
Please stay safe and keep building other support networks. You are valid, and deserve respect and love! 🫂🌻 And just as a sidenote, a lot of bigots can change, once they actually meet people of their prejudice and find how normal they are. Maybe ask your uncle or dad seperately, if they would hate the other, if one of them came out as gay or trans. Maybe they'll rethink it, if it hits close to home. And if not, you know for sure to keep quiet about it to stay safe.
@@AmarisFrede Thankfully I don't live at home anymore, so the worst thing that could happen is I get cut off from seeing my younger siblings. I do have a great and supportive community of my own which is amazing! 💜 They might change, but they still refer to my older sister as being "cured" of being bisexual when she married a man, and are highly religious. I've got a book I'm planning on giving them if I come out that's basically "You don't have to agree with your queer child, but you do have to love and respect them" that's a Christian book, so maybe that will at least get some level of acceptance. We'll see I guess. And also thank you, you are so valid and loved too! 💜
I'm sorry that your family isn't accepting and make jokes that hurt you. I hope they make their jokes out of ignorance and not malice, but you would know them better than I. Sending you internet hugs from a stranger who loves you for who you are.
I met a trans male a few weeks ago in class. We haven't really talked yet because my social awkwardness exists but I'm trying to talk to him. I'd love to be friends with him ngl. He seems like such a nice guy. I sit near some transphohic people so its really awkward when they talk about him and I'm just sitting there questioning if I have a crush on him (they don't know I'm lgbtq) Also, there are tons of homophobic and transphobic people in my class and when I hear them saying some really homophobic/transphobic things it's incredibly awkward. God I'm just yapping on and on XD
⚠Above all, stay safe! But, if it is possible for you, maybe find some comebacks to their rhetoric? Something that makes them think. Like idk, if they comment a boy can't wear nail polish, ask if they think masculinity is so weak and fragile, that a little paint would destroy it? Also, if they say stuff that you know is wrong, but can't argue with, try to do research on that. Like if they say, religion is against it. I've seen multiple mentions in reels and tumblr posts about how in the Thora and Old Testament, they describes 7 different genders. That God and the angels are genderless and thus perfect. Or that the favorite phrase "man shall not lie with man" originally meant "man shall not lie with boy", thus not condemming homosexuals but pdf-iles. I'm sure you'll find sources if looking it up. And I hope you soon get a chance to talk to the trans guy in peace. Best of luck to you both, hope you can be friends! 🍀🌈
Just like alpha was a joke, when you hear someone say sigma you know it’s “i want to call myself alpha but people will make fun of me for it now, what’s a new word sigma that’s it”

Hello to all. Hear me out. As a theater kid raised in a conservative neighborhood but not family I’ve given this a LOT of thought over the decades. What is it about not-straight that gets some people the Willie’s? It was ”oh won’t someone think of the chiiiiiildrennnnn” gave me the clue: it’s because, when you explain “gay” you have to (not really) use the suffix -sexual. That’s what gets the shorts in a twist. Having to say sexual in front of a kid. The other thing of course is that lgbtq+phones are inherently obsessed with what’s in everyone else’s pants-and are projecting that now on to the kidlets. (Underfunded undersupported schools in the US are performing nonconsensual gender reassignment?! I need a nap.) Edited to add. Never mind. Don’t hear me out. LGBTQ+phobia makes no sense.
funny, because i remember explaining it to my kids without having to say "sexual" at all. i think one of them said something about having to marry a boy/girl (whatever was the opposite of their sex) and i just pointed out that they don't have to if they don't want to. because some boys like boys and some girls like girls and some people like both and some people aren't interested in marrying anybody.
It’s literally just anxiety about something they don’t get, and indignity that they are responsible for their own actions, thus it’s your fault for making them have to consider it. They’re children who don’t own up to their own actions, they shift the blame to the stimulus *they* are having a reaction to lest they have to manage their own reaction like a fucking adult. They feel entitled to comfort, and it’s everyone elses responsibility (never their own) to not expose them to difference, it’s your fault for being noticed actually you must be trying to get attention that’s the flip that happens to justify their inaction and pass the buck. Your crime is costing them any effort at all, they shouldn’t have to ever be considerate to another person you should all be considerate of them and them alone.
17:16 it actually peeled off in a way that makes it match the heteroflexible flag! heteroflexible (and homoflexible) is something thats either a sub category of bisexuality (attraction to one gender is so rare that one most likely will end up with the prefferred gender) or a subcategory of hetero/homosexuality (there is literally one maybe two exceptions in your monosexual attraction)
@@minestar2247 yeah, I believe the Japanese actually have a word or term for duel wielders (two sword user is what it translates to if I'm not mistaken) and was also used as a euphemism (I think that's the correct word to use) for bisexuals
@@minestar2247 yeah especially "Jedi" being taken from "Sengoku-Jedi" if I'm not mistaken, kinda funny though since there are Jedi "knights" despite being inspired by the Japanese samurai in the name
The sister ball in the leg dysphoria comic is unlabeled pride. Typically used by those in the community who do not want to use specific labels or if they do not feel like existing ones fit but are part of the community in some way. It’s a fairly newer one as well.
Clearing things up with flags I recognize! The pink and blue one with the heart is a version of the hetro flag, and the one where the skin is "pealing" i believe is hetroflexible! It's like bi, but mostly hetro attraction, with occasional gay attraction
As a Trans woman who is a parent; it is very difficult for me to explain to others "Transparent" joke. Lol I really don't understand why it is that hard of a concept. Lol
The skin peeling is referring to heteroflexable, which is someone who is normally straight, but have rare and specific times of liking someone of the same gender.
The "just friends" trope (used incorrectly when we're talking about gay & bi people) doesn't hurt only gay & bi people. It also hurts the aroace people who actually wanted "just" a platonic relationship, no matter how deep and committed the relationship was. If the relationship really is "just platonic", you do not act like a gay person xD Sincerely, an aroace
I've never been homophobic and I wear it like the biggest pride flag I just loved everyone until I loved everyone lol(I'm bi) I'm happy I can say this. I've also never been transphobic, the first time I heard of it (I was 8) I did research to the best of my little ability and just said "I mean yeah ok" then went back to life with new information
"I did research to the best of my little ability and just said "I mean yeah ok" then went back to life with new information" THIS! Can this become the standard for everything? Please and thank you!
My favourite was the straight ball who fell in love with a girl who turned out to be a trans man and was still in love and the straight skin was peeling off. Rainbow was good, but more precise that would be pan colors
2:58 yeah, i love steven universe, and it was so age appropriate that even the arab and cuts couldn't get rid of the lgbtq rep (which kinda made me predisposed to be an lgbtq ally)
21:50 As a cis woman I've started buying men's pants (for the pockets!). Living in a conservative area of the U.S., I hope it helps a little to normalize a femme presenting person in the 'mens' section.
I discovered “gendervoid” or “void” yesterday and realized that I feel very connected to that label while still leaning toward nonbinary which I have identified as for more than a year
Hey a lot of things are under the NB umbrella, if it makes sense to you it makes sense period! I used to go by no label for a similar reason but it’s never wrong to try things on for size and see what’s a match for the you you are today
As an enby person, I have finally gotten to a point in my trans journey that I disregard the whole men's and women's section and just think about the style/look of clothes I want to find and think about where in each store they'd be. Also I got my first bikini the other day and I'm super excited to wear it to the beach when the weather gets better.
I can't tell you how many times I've had a very confusing attraction to a "man" for them to later come out as a trans woman or trans feminine in some way. It's amazing.
Honestly the way i found out I was trans (i used to be non binary before) was because of acting. I didn’t really like dressing feminine, so i asked for a male role. After playing as him, it made me realize “hey… i prefer this.” And then became trans:3
When it comes to clothes shopping as an AFAB NB, I feel like I have double the choices, manly-man 'and' lady-lady. Growing up, long before figuring out my NBness, my mum would regularly find me in the boys section, and would be like, "This is the boys section!", "Soooo?". I can totally see why it can be triggering for other NBs though T_T
Aro ace AFAB demigirl here, I was born into a family of big people as the smallest baby of siblings at almost 9 Lbs. and have big hands, big feet, a big head, big bones, broad shoulders etc. but no buns so growing up it wasn’t always easy to buy things in my size and frequently had to buy things from boys/men’s departments just to find what fit. Now as a demigirl I realize I actually love my mix of clothing from men’s and women’s departments and am grateful for my body allowing me the easy excuse to mix and match, lol, especially when dysphoria cones into play, I may have hated it as a kid but it was definitely a blessing in disguise!
As someone who’s aspec, so did I, I only read recently about it being s3xual.. I read a lot of fanfiction too so I was just always like “well theyre not netflix and chilling anymore I guess?”.
It still weirds me out that there are some lesbians who refuse to date bi women- I legit cannot imagine caring about who my partner used to date. I’m not dating their ex’s, I’m dating my partner.
About the Sigma thing: It's the same as alpha males and stuff on the mansphere, but a while back they invented "sigma males" like they're better than alphas, because they are lone wolves and don't care about recognition os something stupid like that. Alphas and sigmas started fighting with eachother and it's really funny Now people use the word sigma ironically like saying "based" or "chad" as a joke
Something that I find funny is that, at all the jobs I've ever had, most of my coworkers have been LGBTQ+. I'm not sure how but we all choose the same places to work.
6:12 omg literally my aunt, she’s got two sons and she said she always wanted a daughter, so when I was born she was excited, but unfortunately for her not only did we live far away from each other for a long while, and also I’m agender and very neither feminine nor masculine. She doesn’t know that tho, I’m only out to my parents within my family.
I'm agender transmasc/transneutral, and I do like some women's clothes depending on the style ... but I mostly prefer men's clothes. I had some awkward moments that triggered big sadness and confusion. First: I was shopping with my now ex-BF's mother and we were going clothes shopping. We passed the men's section, and I saw a shirt I liked a lot. I stopped and checked it out. Then I hear it. "What are you doing? The women's clothes are over here." I longingly looked at the shirt as it slipped over my fingertips as I walked away to follow her. She then pointed out adorable girlie outfits that she thought I'd like. I did not. Another moment is I was shopping with my brother and we were in the clothes section. I saw skirts, and I got excited. Then I was like, "Wait, I hate dresses. Why would I wear a skirt? Oh no, am I actually a girl!? Would I be mistaken as a girl if I wore a skirt!?" I'm already constantly called Ma'am and lady and girl, etc ... but this triggered a new dysphoria. Skirt dysphoria. I'd like to get over this and just wear clothes I enjoy without fear of a gender label being forced on me.
I'd love to see old balls with gray hair with all the genders, I'm approaching 50, and it's amazing how different it is than the younger balls coming out. We're mostly out, or figured out who we are but haven't told everyone. That would be a funny new idea to send over to the art department! I hope you have a good day!
My friend group growing up was pretty small, but only one ended up being cishet as far as I know (the rest of us were semi-closeted towards the end). We were always kinda the weird kids, but we were happy.
I'm both ace and genderfluid and even I'm not sure what's going on in that one comic. Far as I can gather, I think Ace poured 2 genderfluids into a single to container to see if they'd combine? IDK. (Also, when you asked why ace balls are always plotting, I said aloud, "Cause we're not having sex so we occupy our time plotting things instead.")
I didn't know Cake by the Ocean meant that. I thought the song was about going to a beachside diner and ordering cake! Yeah, I guess us Aces can't figure out when lyrics mean... something else.
Lgballt is how I got into your channel! Glad to see it being covered again! (Also Jamie struggling to describe the subreddit at the start is so iconic)
The pointlessly gendered talk reminded me of Atlantis and how the mechanic girl's father wanted 2 sons and got 2 daughters instead, who both went on to fulfill his son fantasies anyway.
my journey to discovering my bi-ness came from my period being super late (i was 13-14 before getting it) so i thought i might be a guy. that made me think "okay well i have to look into women now, because they're the opposite sex" so i did. and i learned how attractive women are, but men are, too. and my period hit. and i got scared. the only people i'm not out to are my parents, which is fine for now because i believe i have found my forever person, and we are in a very straight-presenting relationship.
19:33 For anyone wondering; that’s the unlabeled pride flag. It’s basically for anyone who doesn’t use a label (often referred to as the unlabeled gender flag but I couldn’t find an unlabeled sexuality flag so it might be used for both)
I luv you and Shabba so much, thanx for being you. I will never find my tribe, I do not have a tribe, I do not fit in anywhere with anyone, never have and after 61 years and I am still so utterly alone, I realize, I simply do not belong here and never will. I will be alone in my soul until I return to the void. Until then, I so enjoy that you share your self so truly, thanx.
Hey, jamie’s comment section! I had an idea for a t-shirt but I need feedback on whether it’s too cheesey/heavy-handed or anything. So basically I’m aro/ace/agender(not entirely sure on that last one though). So I thought of having a T-shirt with “call me a LR03, because I’m AAA” written on it, with each A coloured as one of the flags representing me(plus maybe a drawing of a battery to make the joke more understandable). Do y’all think it’s funny or should I change it some way or another?
as an ace, im not sure I'd eat cake by the ocean. like, what if I drop it in the water, and now its covered in sand and seawater??
True but you could have a little picnic blanket and enjoy your cake! Watch out for seagulls though, I assume this is all covered in the song.... right?

Yeah! Like, what's the harm done by someone amab wearing a dress?
I work with little kids in childcare and one of the boys occasionally will show up in a dress - and literally no one cares. Not his kid's parents, not my colleagues or the other kids. It's like: that's what he wanted to wear that day.
Older, right-wing people think their ways of life are correct and want to keep them as the status quo.
Do they know the show Pikachu is a boy? (you can tell by the tail)
Also, how does a dress threaten masculinity? Do they fear that feminists might lunge at the sight of a dude in a skirt, and dive under it to cut off his balls?
@@Nino-xp5df the only people who care are the other parents sadly. It's none of their business though 🙅
hello lgbt people, i'll be 3 months on t in a week, and my own mum said she didn't recognise me 😎

22:26 The meme of banging on the table saying "X is X!" comes from the scene in _Incredibles 2_ where Bob says "Math is math!"
- Me about to have a moment because I keep forgetting how gimbal lock works in Blender -
As a math nerd, I feel obligated to mention that X is not usually X!. For example, 3! is 6, not 3.
When I was a child, I was OBSESSED with Sir Elton John. I told my mother I would marry him. She told me I couldn't, because he was gay and only liked boys. Jokes on you, mom! I'm trans! And also still a bit obsessed with S.E.J., but now I do drag in outfits inspired by him!

The cis boy ball goes from straight to hetero-flexible which is under the bi umbrella (basically bi but with a very strong preference for the 'opposite' gender OR hetero but with some exceptions) hence the middle bit peeling to reveal the hetro-flexible flag. Incase anyone was wondering why the comic may have been made like that and not the cracking egg style we typically see.
19:33 That flag is the unlabeled flag for anyone wondering 💚🤍🩵💛

@@thinecyber_cat Thanks!
@@Blake-ij4kw np (here's another boost)
@SuperCoolPersonCalledLillith Yep! Homo-flexible! Thanks for reminding me
At least to my understanding (as a late 20s ace person who is still trying to learn the memes) the “ace is scheming” thing is kind of an extension of the general joke of “aces are like: who has time for romance when you can X”, mixed with the ongoing joke of them taking over Denmark due to sheer population size that is statistically likely to be acespec ~
Frankly I love it 😂 especially since it also defects from the idea of ace spec individuals being squishy uwu naive folks due to lack of sexual or romantic attraction being misconceived as being unaware.
As for blending the gender fluid, I can’t begin to decipher that lolol
Wait, can you explain the Denmark thing for me? Are there more ace people in Denmark, or is it that the estimated population of ace people is the same as Denmark? I assume it's one of those 2 but I've never heard of this lol
@@jijittersthe establishmented number of Ace people exceeds the population of Denmark. Therefore the Aces could take over Denmark.

@@ame1ias_wife Simply chemitry. Mix two genderfluids to see wether or not they mix and what happens to their genders.

17:36 More specifically, the black-and-white straight flag with a narrow rainbow stripe in the middle is for heteroflexible, or basically, "mostly straight with a few exceptions".
" Im Straight but 20 dollars is 20 dollars"
So bi with internalized biphobia got it
@@Xanderj89 I wouldn't say that. Heteroflexible does fall under the bi umbrella. I can imagine people choosing it over bi to make it clear that even though they can sometimes be attracted to the same gender, it's pretty rare for them, so others shouldn't count on it. In that way, it's just a more accurate descriptor.
@@Xanderj89there's also homoflexible so that would be internalized biphobia in your eyes too?
There's a lot of other -flexible labels, even biflexible! when you're bi but sometimes you feel attraction to just one gender, using flexible it's just a way of saying "I'm mostly attracted to X gender, but sometimes I'm attracted to Y gender, but being attracted to Y gender is such a rare occurrence that i don't consider myself bi" still it's classified as a type of bis3×al so it's not biphobia, just a microlabel
1:30 yeah, i kinda hate how many unnecessary straight romance plots exist, like, can't a man and a woman be friends?
There are shows that ask people on the road these kinds of questions, and many claim that men and women can't be friends
@@ShinyTillDawn yeah, I know, adults have told me that before, its just cultural background, which doesn't mean it can't be done
I wish we would just let them!
I think most older generations still see interactions between sexes as having to have a net-win turnout, like the 'niceguy' who thinks he pays compliments to gain sex. So men and women seeing each other as equals would erase that, which is why they hate gender equality (and also same sex relationships), because it's no longer able to be dumbed down into: he pays her for this, so he deserves this, she gives this to him, to earn her (safety, living, food, shelter...)
The controls shift.

I remember my mom telling me that when she was pregnant with me she wasn’t fussed if she had a boy or a girl as long as I was healthy ..
Plot twist , 19 years later I tell her I’m FTM and she’s hysterical and tried to get me sectioned.
2nd Plot twist , 7 years later , I am working in the shop she comes into in the shopping centre after being estranged and she tells my co worker “the man at the door is putting out joggers, do you have them in black “
I’m that man mom, have a great life
I am confused
Dang! Glad things are going better for you-
Yep. My spawn points "totally didn't care about your gender, we just wanted you to be healthy" adamantly insist that my gender (ie my assigned sex) is super super important. Also I'm not healthy but they refuse to accept that either. Shocker, our relationship is a total sham and they know almost nothing about the real me.
@@jimmybobsqusher5897 OPs Mom didn't care about his gender when she was pregnant, but when he came out as trans she tried to get him hospitalized. Years later she didn't recognize him in a store and called him a man.
WILD journey. I hope she's learned how to be a better person to other trans people, even if you never get to a place where you feel safe being around her again.

One of the running jokes of asexuality is that because we aren't thinking about sex, we have time to think about other things... Like world domination.
You know.... Just as an example. Not super sure what ace was doing to Genderfluid, though.
i had to come out to my dad as trans twice because the first time he convinced himself it was a "phase". the second time i came out to him, he literally told me as much. there was about 1-2 years between both times, and it took him around 3 years more to actually become supportive, but im glad after the second time he accepted it and started at least trying to gender me correctly and use my chosen name

The "what happened to friendship" about gay people dating, is so funny to me because it often stems from the person not having ever picked up on gay coded relationship in media back when they weren't allowed to show it clearly so suddenly they're like "why are all those friendships suddenly turning gay".....because they were always super gay.

As a Bible-reading, bisexual gal, I love this!
if they're down, im down, ykw im sayin?
@@missnaomi613 There's actually a whole tradition of interpretation that reads the adam/human as intersex before Eve is created. The word for 'rib' is usually translated side, so it's probably less of a "created from a tiny piece of" vibe and more of a "split down the middle" vibe. Plus, the word for "helper" that Eve is created as is almost always applied to God. This ain't a story of God creating servants for men, no matter how much conservative Christians want to make it one.

"No balls in women's stalls"
Me to my little sister: "Well I guess you have to use the men's restroom because we have no where to put your bouncy ball"
Meanwhile, as an asexual trans woman: "Yes, that gay couple is nice, but I ship those two straight girls together! Also, the male lead and his male rival! Their rivalry is actually love because they can't recognize their feelings! Also, I'm not saying the character is actually trans, but this episode is totally a trans allegory! She spent the entire episode voice training and learning how to socialize! She even has a deadname!"
For the record, not talking about the same show for all three.
Well, you could'a fooled me! I'm sure I've read fanfics with all those bullitpoints about every major tumblr fandom. 😅
>> "Their rivalry is actually love because they can't recognize their feelings!"
Huh?? It doesnt even matter if the ship is straight or gay its just that this dynamic just infuriates me. If they are arch enemies, they are arch enemies, you cant force love and say "they just cant see it yet", they would have seen it if they actually DID love eachother and werent arch enemies...
>> "I ship those two straight girls together!"
Im not straight nor a women but this is just wrong. You cant ship two STRAIGHT women together, if they are straight it means they are attracted to the opposite gender, so shipping them is also technically forcing.
@@samtheking5759 do you not understand what shipping is?
@@rinkuraku5251 yes i do understand what shipping is, its just it doesnt feel right to me for two arch enemies to be shipped, it just doesnt make that much sense.

And I've even heard kids talking to the teachers about not accepting trans kids, and the teachers agreed! I cannot wait for Uni, I have looked around a few times and I can tell it is more accepting.

Crows can talk but it requires a process called "freeing their tongue"
Is it immoral to train a murder of crows to say things like "run" or "they are coming for you" and release them on a hiking trail late at night?
Yes, but stopping you would require more effort than i am willing to put
It is actually not required to free the tongue of crows to enable them to talk. It is simply an abusive practice.
I just looked up what freeing the tongue meant, and that is absolutely fucked, it literally means to split the tongue of a crow, and it does not actually result in a bird that can talk
Also, from googling, you are almost word for word repeating a Tumblr post by crack--attack
Their post saying
"Fun fact! Crows can talk just like parrots do! It requires a process called "freeing their tongue" (don't ask) but yes I want to train a flock of them to say "Run" and release them onto a hiking trail"
@@outtathepantry I know I am
Thats the point
At Christmas last year, my uncle and dad were making transphobic jokes, and my brother laughed--I think because that's easier than the awkwardness of not--and it was just so uncomfortable and stressful for me. I'm still not out, because they've gone and made it clear that they're not going to accept me, and that just sucks.
Please stay safe and keep building other support networks. You are valid, and deserve respect and love! 🫂🌻
And just as a sidenote, a lot of bigots can change, once they actually meet people of their prejudice and find how normal they are. Maybe ask your uncle or dad seperately, if they would hate the other, if one of them came out as gay or trans. Maybe they'll rethink it, if it hits close to home. And if not, you know for sure to keep quiet about it to stay safe.
@@AmarisFrede Thankfully I don't live at home anymore, so the worst thing that could happen is I get cut off from seeing my younger siblings. I do have a great and supportive community of my own which is amazing! 💜
They might change, but they still refer to my older sister as being "cured" of being bisexual when she married a man, and are highly religious. I've got a book I'm planning on giving them if I come out that's basically "You don't have to agree with your queer child, but you do have to love and respect them" that's a Christian book, so maybe that will at least get some level of acceptance. We'll see I guess.

I met a trans male a few weeks ago in class. We haven't really talked yet because my social awkwardness exists but I'm trying to talk to him. I'd love to be friends with him ngl. He seems like such a nice guy. I sit near some transphohic people so its really awkward when they talk about him and I'm just sitting there questioning if I have a crush on him (they don't know I'm lgbtq)
Also, there are tons of homophobic and transphobic people in my class and when I hear them saying some really homophobic/transphobic things it's incredibly awkward. God I'm just yapping on and on XD
⚠Above all, stay safe!
But, if it is possible for you, maybe find some comebacks to their rhetoric? Something that makes them think. Like idk, if they comment a boy can't wear nail polish, ask if they think masculinity is so weak and fragile, that a little paint would destroy it?
Also, if they say stuff that you know is wrong, but can't argue with, try to do research on that. Like if they say, religion is against it. I've seen multiple mentions in reels and tumblr posts about how in the Thora and Old Testament, they describes 7 different genders. That God and the angels are genderless and thus perfect. Or that the favorite phrase "man shall not lie with man" originally meant "man shall not lie with boy", thus not condemming homosexuals but pdf-iles. I'm sure you'll find sources if looking it up.
And I hope you soon get a chance to talk to the trans guy in peace. Best of luck to you both, hope you can be friends! 🍀🌈
I hope you and him become friends!
Thanks to everyone giving me advice
"Sigma" is another level of male above alpha, but outside of the manosphere it's mostly a joke
Just like alpha was a joke, when you hear someone say sigma you know it’s “i want to call myself alpha but people will make fun of me for it now, what’s a new word sigma that’s it”
4:17 I'm Ace and I have no idea what's going on either but if I had to guess maybe they're mixing liquids of all the gender fluid colors and hoping it will turn into a gender fluid? I genuinely can't think of anything else the Ace ball could be doing.
The genderfluid turned into the bigender flag.

Hello to all.
Hear me out. As a theater kid raised in a conservative neighborhood but not family I’ve given this a LOT of thought over the decades. What is it about not-straight that gets some people the Willie’s? It was ”oh won’t someone think of the chiiiiiildrennnnn” gave me the clue: it’s because, when you explain “gay” you have to (not really) use the suffix -sexual. That’s what gets the shorts in a twist. Having to say sexual in front of a kid.
The other thing of course is that lgbtq+phones are inherently obsessed with what’s in everyone else’s pants-and are projecting that now on to the kidlets.
(Underfunded undersupported schools in the US are performing nonconsensual gender reassignment?! I need a nap.)
Edited to add. Never mind. Don’t hear me out. LGBTQ+phobia makes no sense.
funny, because i remember explaining it to my kids without having to say "sexual" at all. i think one of them said something about having to marry a boy/girl (whatever was the opposite of their sex) and i just pointed out that they don't have to if they don't want to. because some boys like boys and some girls like girls and some people like both and some people aren't interested in marrying anybody.
It’s literally just anxiety about something they don’t get, and indignity that they are responsible for their own actions, thus it’s your fault for making them have to consider it. They’re children who don’t own up to their own actions, they shift the blame to the stimulus *they* are having a reaction to lest they have to manage their own reaction like a fucking adult. They feel entitled to comfort, and it’s everyone elses responsibility (never their own) to not expose them to difference, it’s your fault for being noticed actually you must be trying to get attention that’s the flip that happens to justify their inaction and pass the buck. Your crime is costing them any effort at all, they shouldn’t have to ever be considerate to another person you should all be considerate of them and them alone.

17:16 it actually peeled off in a way that makes it match the heteroflexible flag! heteroflexible (and homoflexible) is something thats either a sub category of bisexuality (attraction to one gender is so rare that one most likely will end up with the prefferred gender) or a subcategory of hetero/homosexuality (there is literally one maybe two exceptions in your monosexual attraction)

The skin peeling is referring to heteroflexable, which is someone who is normally straight, but have rare and specific times of liking someone of the same gender.
The "just friends" trope (used incorrectly when we're talking about gay & bi people) doesn't hurt only gay & bi people. It also hurts the aroace people who actually wanted "just" a platonic relationship, no matter how deep and committed the relationship was.

Nonbinary is an umbrella term for all labels that don't fit the man/woman binary. You can use both labels
Hey a lot of things are under the NB umbrella, if it makes sense to you it makes sense period! I used to go by no label for a similar reason but it’s never wrong to try things on for size and see what’s a match for the you you are today
Seriously concerned about Jamie because he says he wants to become a trans-parent (good for him), but that will mean less bisexual visibility. XD
As an enby person, I have finally gotten to a point in my trans journey that I disregard the whole men's and women's section and just think about the style/look of clothes I want to find and think about where in each store they'd be.

Honestly the way i found out I was trans (i used to be non binary before) was because of acting. I didn’t really like dressing feminine, so i asked for a male role. After playing as him, it made me realize “hey… i prefer this.” And then became trans:3
When it comes to clothes shopping as an AFAB NB, I feel like I have double the choices, manly-man 'and' lady-lady. Growing up, long before figuring out my NBness, my mum would regularly find me in the boys section, and would be like, "This is the boys section!", "Soooo?". I can totally see why it can be triggering for other NBs though T_T
i think that the majority of the male homophobes are just pissed that they couldn't find a guy who liked them back XD
The captions changing "I hate dysphoria" to "I hate Florian" I CANT-
Aro ace AFAB demigirl here, I was born into a family of big people as the smallest baby of siblings at almost 9 Lbs. and have big hands, big feet, a big head, big bones, broad shoulders etc. but no buns so growing up it wasn’t always easy to buy things in my size and frequently had to buy things from boys/men’s departments just to find what fit. Now as a demigirl I realize I actually love my mix of clothing from men’s and women’s departments and am grateful for my body allowing me the easy excuse to mix and match, lol, especially when dysphoria cones into play, I may have hated it as a kid but it was definitely a blessing in disguise!
congrats for having a clothing style. literally everyone has a personality. stop obsessing about gender.
@@smoothiecriminalxxstop obsessing about being weird and incorrect first.
I was today years old when I learned that cake by the ocean is not just about eating cakes at the seaside.. 😮🍰
As an ace person, yes, I took "Netflix & chill" literally for a very long time.
As someone who’s aspec, so did I, I only read recently about it being s3xual.. I read a lot of fanfiction too so I was just always like “well theyre not netflix and chilling anymore I guess?”.
Netflix and chill was a Ben and Jerry's ice cream flavour. It was great and i didnt know until recently the other meaning of netflix and chill
@@roryandbro1561 That's so cursed
@kurjaesitys Yeah it really is
4:23 the ace ball, wants to watch the gender fluid try to escape
It still weirds me out that there are some lesbians who refuse to date bi women- I legit cannot imagine caring about who my partner used to date. I’m not dating their ex’s, I’m dating my partner.
I got to use the coveted, "Thanks, I chose it myself!" In response to a compliment on my name, today!
About the Sigma thing: It's the same as alpha males and stuff on the mansphere, but a while back they invented "sigma males" like they're better than alphas, because they are lone wolves and don't care about recognition os something stupid like that. Alphas and sigmas started fighting with eachother and it's really funny
Now people use the word sigma ironically like saying "based" or "chad" as a joke
Something that I find funny is that, at all the jobs I've ever had, most of my coworkers have been LGBTQ+. I'm not sure how but we all choose the same places to work.
me (cis male) who grew up to like dressing up pretty and my sister (also cis) who grew up to play football.
6:12 omg literally my aunt, she’s got two sons and she said she always wanted a daughter, so when I was born she was excited, but unfortunately for her not only did we live far away from each other for a long while, and also I’m agender and very neither feminine nor masculine. She doesn’t know that tho, I’m only out to my parents within my family.
Someone told me women would be jealous of my hair (closeted transfem) and it absolutely made my day
I'm agender transmasc/transneutral, and I do like some women's clothes depending on the style ... but I mostly prefer men's clothes. I had some awkward moments that triggered big sadness and confusion.
First: I was shopping with my now ex-BF's mother and we were going clothes shopping. We passed the men's section, and I saw a shirt I liked a lot. I stopped and checked it out. Then I hear it.
"What are you doing? The women's clothes are over here."
I longingly looked at the shirt as it slipped over my fingertips as I walked away to follow her. She then pointed out adorable girlie outfits that she thought I'd like. I did not.
Another moment is I was shopping with my brother and we were in the clothes section. I saw skirts, and I got excited. Then I was like, "Wait, I hate dresses. Why would I wear a skirt? Oh no, am I actually a girl!? Would I be mistaken as a girl if I wore a skirt!?"
I'm already constantly called Ma'am and lady and girl, etc ... but this triggered a new dysphoria. Skirt dysphoria.
I'd like to get over this and just wear clothes I enjoy without fear of a gender label being forced on me.
The appeal of Jammi is how awkward he is. How do I get such charming awkwardness?
I'd love to see old balls with gray hair with all the genders, I'm approaching 50, and it's amazing how different it is than the younger balls coming out. We're mostly out, or figured out who we are but haven't told everyone. That would be a funny new idea to send over to the art department!
I hope you have a good day!
My friend group growing up was pretty small, but only one ended up being cishet as far as I know (the rest of us were semi-closeted towards the end). We were always kinda the weird kids, but we were happy.
@jammidodger, the joke with the trans guy coming out to the boy who had a crush on him is that the hetero ball changed to a heteroflexible ball.
Jamie need OT to teach him to make sound effects 😂
I'd heard of gaydar before but I just about spit out a huge bite of my dinner when Bifi came after. 😅
I'm both ace and genderfluid and even I'm not sure what's going on in that one comic. Far as I can gather, I think Ace poured 2 genderfluids into a single to container to see if they'd combine? IDK.
(Also, when you asked why ace balls are always plotting, I said aloud, "Cause we're not having sex so we occupy our time plotting things instead.")
6:13 my comic made it into the video :D
The flag of my aunt & mom is supposed to be the cisgender flag btw
The cisgender flag is actually just the bisexual flag without the stripe in the middle
I didn't know Cake by the Ocean meant that. I thought the song was about going to a beachside diner and ordering cake!
Yeah, I guess us Aces can't figure out when lyrics mean... something else.
19:31 i believe the mystery flag here is the unlabeled flag
Lgballt is how I got into your channel! Glad to see it being covered again! (Also Jamie struggling to describe the subreddit at the start is so iconic)
The pointlessly gendered talk reminded me of Atlantis and how the mechanic girl's father wanted 2 sons and got 2 daughters instead, who both went on to fulfill his son fantasies anyway.
I finally have seen a gay, agender ball! The immediate smile and validation from that just made my day.
my journey to discovering my bi-ness came from my period being super late (i was 13-14 before getting it) so i thought i might be a guy. that made me think "okay well i have to look into women now, because they're the opposite sex" so i did. and i learned how attractive women are, but men are, too. and my period hit. and i got scared. the only people i'm not out to are my parents, which is fine for now because i believe i have found my forever person, and we are in a very straight-presenting relationship.
19:33 For anyone wondering; that’s the unlabeled pride flag. It’s basically for anyone who doesn’t use a label (often referred to as the unlabeled gender flag but I couldn’t find an unlabeled sexuality flag so it might be used for both)
Don't worry about the Sigma BS Jamie. It means literally nothing.
I’ve always liked the phrase “straight as an arrow” mostly because arrows do not need to be straight.
8:30 We have nothing to fear, but fear itself; and the possibility of Star Wars episode 10.
I luv you and Shabba so much, thanx for being you. I will never find my tribe, I do not have a tribe, I do not fit in anywhere with anyone, never have and after 61 years and I am still so utterly alone, I realize, I simply do not belong here and never will. I will be alone in my soul until I return to the void. Until then, I so enjoy that you share your self so truly, thanx.
I hope you find your people, friend🧡
Hey, jamie’s comment section! I had an idea for a t-shirt but I need feedback on whether it’s too cheesey/heavy-handed or anything.
So basically I’m aro/ace/agender(not entirely sure on that last one though). So I thought of having a T-shirt with “call me a LR03, because I’m AAA” written on it, with each A coloured as one of the flags representing me(plus maybe a drawing of a battery to make the joke more understandable). Do y’all think it’s funny or should I change it some way or another?
It's so dorky and corny I love it
