    I will admit, I used to be aprehensive about the whole trans thing. I'd always have it in my mind that trans women weren't real women and I'd scoff if any one said otherwise. I don't know when it happened but at some point I just stopped caring about such things. If it doesn't hurt any one, who am I to judge? People should just be able to live their lives as they see fit. We should all strive to do that, honestly.

    I started socially transitioning when I was in my sophomore year of high school and then I started Testosterone when I was 16. Everyone’s journey is different but honestly not only because of my own personal experience, but because of people I know’s experiences too I do believe that it is I do believe that hormone blockers for kids should be available and hormones for trans teenagers should be available. If I hadn’t started transitioning when I did I don’t think I’d still be here. I’m now 19 years old and had my top surgery. I’ve been on testosterone for over 3 years now :)

      Bro im super happy for you but i gotta say that i believe giving kids easy access to Hormon blockers etc will be causing more harm than good. Like, kids/teens are extremly stupid and when some of them are in a difficult time in their lives and they see how other people got so much happier by transitioning maybe they will do it too because they think that transitioning will make them happier. This can defenitly be the case no doubt about that but (i hate using this word) some kids are just in a "phase" and will regret it later in their life because they "destroyed" their male/female body. Im happy that everything worked out for you though

      @@kaze8401 you said this so respectfully and well!! Agree!!! The OP also states it like 3yrs is such a long time… it’s not. Especially at 19. I say that with all due respect. Yes, he’s an adult… but the brain doesn’t even fully develop until 25.
      The studies currently coming out on detransition is alarming. It’s literally a scientific experiment to use puberty blockers and give hormones as they are. We don’t know long term effects, it’s off label. I’m all for adults transitioning!! If they make an INFORMED decision to do so. A minor cannot give consent or informed consent for that matter on something so permanent.
      Not trying to be negative… I do care about ALL people, which is why I’m saying all this. I feel horrible for those who suffer with gender dysphoria.. I cannot relate, I’ll never know what it’s like, and I acknowledge this. I wish the answer was easier and simpler to treat gender dysphoria. I truly do!! But I have to stand by my strong solid stance after doing my homework that children and minors should not be allowed to transition as it is currently!! Maybe something better and safer will come out… I can only hope this for the future!! I fear that within the next 20yrs, lawsuits are going to explode against those condoning, promoting, and directly helping children transition. Hormone blockers don’t just “pause” puberty as big pharma & pushers of this want you to believe either.
      Anthony Padilla should now do an episode with detransitioners. I do think this episode as I watch is rather dangerous with some of the disinfo and unchecked “facts” being said here. Ugh. I just wish there was an easier answer and that no one ever struggled with this!! It seriously breaks my heart. And I promise you, I’m no TERF!! Shame on those who use people’s struggles (on both sides!!) against them or for a true hateful agenda. This should’ve NEVER been so politicized as it has been too… that’s never good for anything or anyone.

    Y’all in the replies under this comment are missing the point. It wasn’t stated that a CIS MAN has never pretended to be a woman to do harm in a women’s bathroom. It’s that trans women are living their lives JUST LIKE YOU ARE and are trying to use the restroom. Just like you have a problem with the CIS MEN harming women, trans women are not safe in men’s restrooms because of the CIS MEN that do harm. For crying out loud. It’s not that hard to put together.

      Well yes, I respect trans people. I respect people. However, people like Dylan? No. I mentioned I respect people right? Trans people, any person, religious people. Let's use religion. I don't believe in God. That's a personal opinion. Now, am I going around hating on Christians, Catholics, Muslims, or any other religions? No. Do you see my point? If not, it's okay, let me further explain. And I'm not trying to be sarcastic I'm actually trying to explain to you. Is religion involved in any way shape or form in politics? No. Why? It can't be. It would violate so many of our rights. There's a reason why teachers cant force their kids to believe or to not believe in God. That's up to the parents. Have you ever seen a teacher start her class by forcing the kids to read a page of the bible? No? Exactly. Do you see my point? Yes, be transgender. I don't care. Nobody should care. But here is when it becomes an issue. I don't know if you're aware, but the "they are more than 2 genders" (which there isn't,) is now being taught at schools to literal 5 year olds. This belief is being implemented on kids without the parents consent. There's also already been cases of trans women raping actual women in the restrooms. They're also trying to make it legal for CHILDREN to transition. And don't even dare say the "puberty blockers" are totally irreversible and don't leave damage. Oh they leave a lot of damage. Physical, mental, and emotional trauma. They're also trying to make it ILLEGAL for you to intentionally call someone by the "incorrect pronouns" like calling Dylan a he, which he is. He's a biological male cosplaying and making a mockery of women. Real women. This whole transgender issue is becoming a political thing. So it is becoming a big issue. It's not only the "they just wanna live their lives" yeah, at other people's expenses. So many REAL women are missing out on big opportunities why? Because trans women or filling them. Why? Because the brand, company, franchise, whatever it is, is afraid of being called transphobic. People are being silenced for having a different opinion. I've been called transphobic for saying that trans women shouldn't be in women's sports. Because they SHOULDN'T. They're are biologically MALE. Why is it so hard for you guys to understand that this issue is becoming a political thing when it shouldn't have. And people like you who act like this isn't affecting anybody are making the issue even worse. Stop acting like this whole trans thing doesn't affect anyone. yes it does. Just look at the video. 2 men trying to tell ME a REAL woman, that I should be comfortable being in the same restroom as a man. Why are trans people forcing me to accept them when they couldn't accept themselves for who they were? You have your right to have your opinion and belief, and I also have mine. But instead I get called transphobic, I get cancelled, and I get shit tone of hate, just for having a different opinion. If this was religion, y'all would be hating every single Christian for forcing their beliefs on other people, but somehow there's nothing wrong with trans people doing this? Okay. Trans people like Dylan are living their lives at other people's expenses. So now you tell me. How can you read this comment and be like "trans people don't do anything wrong just let them be"

      @@moomoomeows7471 You fundamentally don't understand what it means to be transgender.
      First of all, gender and sex are two different things. Sex is biological, male, female, intersex, that kinda thing. No one is going to deny that. Gender is how one perceives themselves in the context of traditional gender roles.
      Being transgender is a very complex thing. It can be both biological and psychological. There are studies that show that transgender people's brains function more closely to that of the gender they identify with, and not their sex at birth.
      Children develop a sense of gender very very early in life. Same with sexual orientation. Whether you like it or not, children are going to find people pretty or find that they feel like a gender that doesn't align with their sex at birth. They don't know what these feelings are yet, but they are still there. So it is important to teach them about what gender and sexual orientation are so that they are more able to understand their own needs and who they are. I don't think we should be teaching elementary students obviously. Middle school would be the best time because that's when most kids would start going through puberty and these feelings become more complex and pronounced.
      Being trans shouldn't be political. It's just another immutable characteristic like being gay or straight or black or white. The teaching of what gender is is important.

      @@abielaird here we go again with the same arguement. Yes. Some women don't have reproductive organs. Does that mean that they're not a woman anymore? No. Why? Because they're still OF THE NATURE to. If a man comes to you crying and yelling that he can't get pregnant, would you be shocked? No. Why? Because he's a man. He's not supposed to be able to get pregnant. That's like saying if a human was born without a leg now they're not a human? No. If a person is born without a leg, we know something went wrong because humans BY NATURE have 2 legs. Someone who is born without one doesn't mean now they can identify as alien. Now, let me ask you this, what is a woman? You said a woman is a woman because they identify as that. Okay. What is "that" what are they identifying as. What is a woman? And me, as a REAL woman. Not "cis" don't label me with your terms to back up your delusions. Me, as a real woman, can say that a woman is an adult human female. That's it. It's engraved in your bones, the way your body is built. Why do you think scientists can go back and identify a skeleton of hundreds of years ago as a male or female? It's in their bones. It's biology. If you're body isn't built to give birth, if your body isn't of the nature to have periods or to give birth, you're not a woman. No matter how hard you try to identify as one, you're not a woman. No amount of make up, dresses, or "hormones" can change that.

While some people obviously do, a lot of other people don't realise it at all until they're in their teens or adulthood! I'm a trans man but I loved dolls and dressing up as a kid and my parents didn't put much emphasis on gender so I didn't think about it all that much and I didn't really "show signs" as a kid. I only started to realise I was trans when I started puberty and my body changed and I started thinking more about what gender meant to me. But since I was quite feminine as a kid, some of my family members actually didn't believe me when I came out to them because they only ever heard stories of people where it was obvious since they were kids.

      They've gotten it totally wrong on gender. Gender, (there are 2 male, and female) that's it, refers to the sex assigned at birth and the social aspects of being male or female, respectively. Male and female are biological categories which are fixed and permanent.
      Then, they conflate gender and personality. Then, they conflate gender and gender roles. Then they conflate gender with sexual preference. Then, they conflate males with females, fact with fiction and men with women.
      A woman isn't a personality, a social construct, a feeling, or a costume that a man can just put on or take off-- She's an adult, human, female. As it turns out, there's a prerequisite to being a woman-- and that's being born female. For some reason, they seem unable to process that

      @@pvic6959 that’s a valid question, don’t worry! It’s completely okay to just not be attracted to a person sexually. That can be a very important part of any romantic relationship. And I’m saying this as a trans guy, it’s alright. Being attracted to women doesn’t necessarily mean being sexually attracted to every single woman, after all, since no woman has the same physicality. As long as you’re respectful about it (and you already seem super respectful and kind when it comes to talking about the trans community) it’s all good mate 👍.
      People sometimes seem to forget that a lot of romantic attraction is paired up with both physical and sexual attraction, which isn’t shallow at all and is in fact rather normal. Remember though that not all trans women have the same sexual characteristics, some of us (as in, just trans people in general) get sex changes. It isn’t very often (as explained by one of the women in the video) but what that would basically mean is that (and you can, of course, decide for yourself whether or not my guess is accurate) you’re not /not/ attracted to trans women but you /are/ not attracted to dicks. Which is fine! Just maybe make sure to talk first with your future lover(s) before doing anything sexual (or rather just before getting into any intimate relationship) and establish both your preferences and what you are comfortable with. I’m pretty sure like 99% of trans women would be understanding about it but if you ever feel pressured (and this applies to any lover really) you have every single right to leave.

      Cis-men (or trans-women who are not taking hormones) who get treatment against prostate cancer might get Cyproterone-acetate (also known as Androcur) prescribed, which is the testosterone suppressing drug the gender clinic I am at has used for quite some time (and I am still using).
      It's to stop possible hormones from harming the healing process or, before radiotherapy making matters worse in the affected area.
      A colleague of mine who has prostate cancer at first argued that I was overstating some of the possibilities hormones could start to have (I had warned people that if I would suddenly explode out of anger or frustration that they would know why that was, which he thought was quite the exaggeration).
      I spoke with him when he had been on that drug for just a month and the first thing he said when he saw me was "Holy shit I get it now", because just like I experienced for about 4 months taking the drug without other hormones present: you enter menopause, which well...does all kinds of stuff with your mood.

    As someone who has transitioned and then detransitioned, I know for certain it could have been prevented by the world around me just supporting and BELIEVING me when I did ID as trans. It was extremely hard to admit to myself, and later other people (still in that process lol), that I had been wrong when I’d had to fight to be believed for years - even though I never even medically transitioned. Other trans people’s support is what gave me the courage to really look into my identity. If I had just had the chance to explore my identity freely I would have known what was right for me much earlier. If my parents had let me wear ”boy clothes”, if I had been allowed to cut my hair, if I hadn’t had to hear constant comments about being ”too masculine” or ”too feminine”, and the list goes on…

    I used to work with a trans woman at my last job (I wasn’t close with her, but she was a really nice person and was super fun to be around).
    For the longest time no one knew and in that time no one ever batted an eye and just thought she was a woman. When another coworker dug back into her social media history and found out they told everyone and instantly people felt the need to judge and criticize her. It became the gossip of the workplace where coworkers would find her socials and dig back to look at pictures of her before she transitioned. Making comments like, “I knew something was off because of X, Y, Z” and “She looked so much better as a man”, etc. it became the topic of discussion with her for others, and although she’s confident in her identity she dealt with depression and addiction before fully transitioning.
    She’s long since left that job fortunately, but to hear how people’s perspectives/opinions of her changed and how she was treated differently when people found out about her gender is disgusting.

      maybe because for all of human history women have been oppressed on the basis of sex- women can be forcibly impregnated. only people with penises can forcibly impregnate, and only people with vaginas can forcibly impregnate. female genitalia and female bodily functions are also seen, or have been seen, as unclean- menstrual huts, the idea that menstruation/discharge is shameful, etc. and the reason people care about vaginoplasties- a serious, complicated and risky surgery- is because if you have a penis, you can rape and forcibly impregnate a woman. 99% of rapists are male. i'm a natal female with gender dysphoria, and i want to FULLY medically transition. i won't be satisfied until i have had a double mastectomy and a phalloplasty- genitals are involved in dysphoria. if you're saying you want to be a woman but somehow you're totally fine with your penis, i don't believe you have dysphoria, i believe you have a fetish.

    Thankyou Thankyou Thankyou, I'm a 60yr old mum of a beautiful trans daughter, it is so awesome to finally watch a video that has popped up while watching UA-cam that is celebrating trans people. I sit here night after night watching UA-cam, only to be bombarded by anti trans videos. People judging and dehumanising trans people. To the point of me trying to explain to them in the comments that, they have got it all wrong, trans are not out to attack women in bathrooms or groom young children into some sort of perverted fetish that they have. It breaks my heart because I watch Dylans videos and totally understand where she's coming from and why she's documenting it all. Which i must say a huge thankyou to her for doing it, shes sharing a very personal journey and coping so much hate, yet she keeps going, shes saving young people from suicide. I believe that with every bone in my body. On a more personal level, every time these people attack trans woman, their attacking my daughter and that really pisses me off, BIG TIME. I've coped so much abuse been told I should be in jail for child abuse, that both myself and daughter are mentally insane ect. Then tonight I've come across yr channel and seeing these beautiful woman be so happy and open brings me such joy. So Thankyou again, I've shared this video as much as possible because it explains transitioning in an easy understand way for the average person to understand and hopefully except trans people as the beautiful beings they are. Much love also to yr 3 beautiful guests. 💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕✌😂

      @S. Yamadera nice try, shes my daughter, end of story. Stop judging people you nothing about. Ill never understand why people go spare over something that doesn't concern them. Their not hurting anyone so it's knowone business. I'm sure it will settle down, trans are being treated like gays in the 70s. Now THANKFULLY, gays now have the same rights as everyone else. Few more years and all the people screaming that trans are an abomination will crawl back into their judgement pathetic little lives until the next thing they don't agree with pops up. I just dont understand that you and others feel you have the right to be judge and jury. Another shooting today in Colorado, 5 innocent men shot dead because they were gay. Families left devastated and broken because some thought they had the right to take their lives because they didn't agree with their lifestyle. Disgusting

To have family disown you just for being who you are is so completely unfair. It hurts my heart to hear it happens so much to people in these communities.

I remember one day I just came out to a friend, she helped me buy clothes I felt too ashamed of getting on my own, I came back home and found out a new song , released that SAME DAY of a Spanish band called Ska P, the song's name is Colores and it changed my life. It literally is about trans woman and how to love them and I couldn't stop crying, it was so bad that I had no other option than to come out to my family and everyone. It's been 3 years in HRT and I am happier than ever.

    Ftm here: Not everyone feels that urge from being a kid knowing they aren’t supposed to be their assigned gender at birth. Sometimes it manifests as “Oh, I’m different from everyone else. Maybe I’m not girly enough or I’m too weird. I should dress like those girls or be pretty like those girls.” I thought I wasn’t a good enough girl and I should be skinnier and prettier. I always felt trapped in my body, never happy. Even after being exposed to trans people, I didn’t put two and two together until a couple years ago in my twenties. Now I’m happily transgender and FINALLY comfortable in my body :)

You're just living 'as' one - whatever that's supposed to mean. But you're not a guy, because girls, women, boys and men are female and male human beings, not walking sex stereotypes.

    I don't see why it's so controversial for Dylan to keep her birthname. First of all, Dylan is a unisex name, so it's not like her decision to keep it somehow leaves her with a jarringly masculine name. There's plenty of cis girl Dylans out in the world. Second of all, it's nobody's damn business.

Also what separates us from animals is that we have a society - or at the very least the most complex society, and with that comes social constructs, including gender.

Also, gender isn't a social construct because how would you explain the essentially identical roles that men and women play in all societies? For instance, if you went to the Amazon rain forest or to Africa, you would see men and women acting and holding roles corresponding with their gender. It would be a coincidence of biblical proportions if virtually every nation in recorded history socialized men and women to perform the same roles in social contexts. How did these communities, which are hundreds of kilometers apart and in complete isolation from one another, reach the same social norms? There must be a biological urge that causes men and women to behave differently. This biological urge is called gender.

So it's nice to hear the stories, like yours, about support and love and encouragement.

    I think surgery is actually mostly for the person themselves, not society, its completely normal to want it or not want it, some people feel dysphoria around it and some people don't, there's no need to go into depth about how hard it is specifically to oppose it, all surgery has recovery times and care practice, if someone is happy with the process then go for it
    also for the pronouns, I think its actually better to default to they, or the persons name and if they want to correct you they can, being in the closet and being asked your pronouns over and over again can be really nerve wracking, or being asked in front of a ton of people too when you would rather just have a few people know
