As a non-binary person, ever since puberty they have felt uncomfortable in their body and this top surgery will allow them to overcome the largest contributor to that.

I am sobbing. Thank you so incredibly much for sharing. I didn't think anyone truly understood how I feel, and from the moment the video started I realized... you do (did). The anger, the distress, the clawing at yourself, I thought it was just me despite everything I have read about the nonbinary and trans community. Seeing it was so powerful. Thank you, thank you, thank you
do not do this to yourself. It is a social contagion spread by social media. It is common for this to happen in the female population such as anorexia and bulimia did
@@mitchellcrane9809 They should do it if they have body dysphoria. Top surgery doesn't impact your health negatively that much. It's basically just removing a ton of fat.
@@gumoa2866 They are more then just a ton of fat. They serve a purpose. Body dysphoria is a mental condition. IT should not be solved with a scalpel. There are people out there who have body dysphoria that feel they should not have a limb or their eyes. Should we remove the body part off these people that bothers them or should we work to solve the problem with their mind.
There are people in the comments complaining about how this is "butchering" or whatever. What I'm curious about is if a cis woman gets a breast reduction surgery it's more than ok, but someone like this person gets it and it's suddenly a medical atrocity? It's literally the same procedure done for the same reason, so that person can be more comfortable in their own body. If that genuinely bothers you, then I don't understand why you're watching this in the first place.
To spread awareness that they will be known as the generation of mass sterilisation. Having a reduction is a good argument, but ultimately a biological woman reducing her breast size isn’t denying her biology.
If this women decides she wants breasts again. She’s outta luck
Breast reduction is done for reasons like back and neck pain. And it’s a reduction not a removal
@@Qwertygerty123Mastectomy =/= sterilisation. And earth's population is still rapidly rising, so even if it did somehow cause sterilisation, it would be moot.
@@ArAsDeCos I’ve also considered that. So what you’re saying is sterilising some people is a good thing?
@@Qwertygerty123 Yeah. Those who don't want to have kids, for example.
I'm glad you could have the surgery
I also want to do the same ..and having same feeling
I also identify as a woman but cried to this because I want them off.
So happy for them! I have a loved one about to do this and I’m so happy and look forward to the relief, freedom and alignment they’ll have with their body. ❤❤❤❤❤
Okay, crazy person, it's a she, clearly.
Thank you so much for helping so many of us to know that we're not alone
Omg, what an exciting moment that was for u. This is me also. I'm not that close to get my top surgery. BUT I have an appointment with a doctor in the beginning of August. Hopefully it's not a very long time until I'll have my surgery. In november I've been waiting for almost 3 years...
Hope ur satisfied with the upper body, now it's 6 months ago.
Thanks for sharing your struggle and happiness.
I hope everything went Not too problematical, did you get an appointment? (If you didn’t I’m sorry to remind you of that post and I want to tell you that every day Troy get a little step closer to top surgery, it’s gonna be great, you will feel great.)
I appreciate the fact they are doing this video. Helps me to understand something I have little comprehension about
I feel the same way. I hope to get too surgery too soon. I hope it goes well for you!!
Thank you for this. I'm so incredibly happy for you :') Congratulations! Seeing your joy at the end is so wonderful!
This gives me so much hope
i have trans friends but seeing people get the surgery i want in nz, just makes me so happy to know people are getting it
You are such an attractive person and it makes me happy to see you so happy! 🫶🏾
So happy to see other people happy
Reminds me of a documentary I watched about people with body integrity identity disorder (BIID)
i was crying trough the hole video. i have no hope but i really happy that non-binary people starting to get more representation, and i feel so happy but so broken right now.
hole 😂
I want to do this so bad
I really hope you change your mind
I hope you dont ruin your life. Dont buy progressisvism dumpster
I want it too and even got an appointment scheduled. Screw what the transphobes say! They will never understand our pain and I will never change my mind. I know what I want.
Me too. I just need the money. Donation link in my bio.
@@DBoy176 It's hard to change your mind when you look at yourself in the mirror naked
I’m so glad that people can get lifesaving surgeries like this. I wish them luck with everything ❤
Ayeee I’m non-binary too!! I can relate so much and it’s so cool to see someone like me transition :))
I’m a frog. Thank you so much. I’m getting my voice deepened, mouth widened soon. I’m on my way to finally be accepted as a frog. I use the pronoun rebit.
Why do people care so much about what other people do to make themselves fulfilled and happy? Whoever sees this comment I guarantee you you do something that is detrimental in the eyes of others. It doesn’t mean it’s not what you need.
Wish they have talked about the budget this surgery needs as some have to travel to Thailand to get it done instead
amazing ^^!!
I also want to do this...
But i am scared of even injection, don't know how to face this
Don't do it.
So happy for them!
her
@@thenman23 Have you even watched the video??🙄
For them? There’s just one girl here: one who hates her breasts.
@@ZombieR4Tthey think they're funny.
@@theharshtruthoutthere bullshit
Awesome ❤️
Could anyone tell me who is non-binary means🤔
I'll use shapes to see if it helps. A man is a square and a woman ìs a circle. Nonbinary is an ever changing shape. Non(t of the man-woman exclusive) binary
It's nothing. It's just made up by people looking for attention.
@@shamusteakiawa *eyeroll* tell that to the thousands of varied genders throughout history
it means if am a woman and i dont identify as such and if am a man i don't identify as such iam just floating between the two
It means you’re brainwashed
Sad, looks like she regrets it.
you don’t need to remove part of yourself to be comfortable, instead address the psychological issues & body/gender dysphoria rather than putting more money in the pockets of these corrupt surgeons.
Looks like she recovers from cancer. What a nonsense.
Is this napier nz??.😮
Gymnomastia
Can you employ a modicum of common sense? It is NOT okay to normalize a young person hating their body *especially* a part of the body that is sexualized since childhood. It takes TIME for individuals to come into themselves. This is a non-medically necessary surgery that carries huge risks, not just physically but emotional. More than that, it is so weird how this is turned into a spectacle and a weird pity party celebration.
The medical industrial complex is making a lot of money
If these people stopped being self obsessed they'd stop obsessing over themselves.
Self hatred is a sign of being self-absorbed.
I mean. It's hard to not look at a mirror in your life you know.
Why aint this age restricted tho
It is
its sad. this women needs help, not removing parts of herself. she will never be comfortable in her body no matter what surgery she does
You need help from a mental health care specialist. They are not a woman. Just get in your head that there is more than two sex and more than two gender identities.
No one cares though
U mad lol
@@noe.andmurr you don’t care about her well being ?
@@DBoy176 I do care, actually. Very much so. Which is why I'm letting them choose what they want to do. If it makes them happy so be it. It's not others concern at all, even if its for the "best"
Someday we look back at sex reassignment surgery the same way we look at lobotomy... this is another evil perpetrated by the medical industry. They need therapy not surgery.
She's clearly got sensory issues.
The only evil here is people who think lile you do
The amount of trans people who have taken their own lives has increased dramatically after they get surgery. They are killing themselves by the thousands because they regret their choice to mutilate their own bodys and they realize that it was a huge mistake and that it’s permanent.
too bad there is nothing you can do about it 💋
You think this person hasn't had any therapy??? Please
She needed therapy not butchering
go screw urself homophobe.
@@OlliMonke lol
lmao u sound like my dad. the fact that u said something so awful as that, shows me that *you’re* the one who needs therapy :) and their pronouns are they/them, it’s like u don’t know how to listen or something lol 😂😂
Thank you. There are so many brainwashed and deluded people in this comments section who are somehow happy that she removed perfectly healthy breasts because of her mental health issues. She needed help, not to be mutilated.
heal the mind, stop butchering bodies
She is not nonbinary ( a made up nonsense term). The fact that she does not feel “safe” tells the issue. Something has happened to her or she has seen something that has traumatized her. Having breast should not influence your feeling of safety as it is a natural state of they body. Rather then mutilating the body she needs proper therapy to get her past/desensitized to the source of fear she has.
Sad to see this
How do these doctors sleep at night & how are they able to keep their medical degree? Unreal. 😡
This is another evil perpetrated by the medical community...someday we will look back at these procedures the same way we look at lobotomy. This doctors need to be jailed...the fact that they do these procedures on 13-15 year old girls is disturbing...
"First do no harm." Removing breasts is definitely a harm.
Please listen, this isn't harm. This was medically necessary for them. Their chest was causing a lot of mental pain and this was the most effective way to treat it. It is like knee surgery. Most trans and nonbinary people (including me) have to go to therapists and get letters that aprove us for this kind of surgery. I ve already spent 200 dollars for one letter and I'm going to spend another 200 for a second letter. You don't need that for knee surgery, this should be recognized as any other physical problem. The doctor really did help them and improved their mental health greatly, how is that a bad thing. All we want is to be happy in our bodies
@childishpixels7750 By what measure is their health improved other than their say so? Should we start removing other limbs that cause people mental distress? What if someone feels they should be in a wheelchair or they should be a quadriplegic?
@@MustyUnderboob that's actually a real issue... their are people with a disorder that makes them want to be disabled. For example, their was a man with two working legs who "felt like an amputee". He lived his life in a wheelchair although he could walk. He went to a doctor and begged to have his legs amputated and they refused because it was unethical. Their was a woman who desperately wanted to be blind, she lived her life using a blinfold. the doctors refused to remove her eyes so she dumped bleach into her eyes and blinded herself... trans surgery is no different! It's unethical and doctors should be held accountable. We don't operate on people who don't have the mental capabilities to consent.
Poor brainwashed lady😢
Loving yourself is accepting the reality of who you are. Those who cannot accept themselves are more likely to engage in self destructive behaviour. Drugs, alcohol, and self mutilation are common modes of self destruction. I was an alcoholic for a number of years and damaged my body to make my mind feel more at ease. We all make mistakes in life and I hope you can find peace and happiness.
What a nasty comment
They do this surgery so they will never have to harm themselves again
@@reiga9589ok anime boyo. You all need kids have to face reality gender dysphoria is real.
@@shayyahalomi9719yet the self hate and suicide rate doesn’t go down. This isn’t the key to accepting yourself.
such a privledged person to say this
I'm happy for you
body dysmorphic disorder
Very sad. No doubt this woman has experienced sexual assault in her past.
As an AFAB person who wants top surgery... no. SA isn't the reason for it. Dysphoria is.
You don’t understand anything fr
I’m so sorry you did this to your beautiful body. I hope your life is good, and you don’t struggle too much. Adults shouldn’t be allowed this.
if only you were trans for a day you'd know
Some people breasts are too big for their body they remove it
adults shouldn’t have bodily autonomy? knee surgery patients have a higher regret rate than top surgery patients, should people stop getting knee surgery?
@@oliver4146 I have a lot to say about medical practice and the way we are told it’s the best thing. I believe each person should do their own research into surgery. What we are talking about here isn’t just a person having a surgery. We are talking about people who have mental health issues that aren’t being addressed. Instead they are being affirmed. It’s impossible to be the opposite sex that you were born as. After all the hormones and surgery they are not even 1% closer to being the opposite sex. They are just changing their appearance. I also have a problem with how this effects Women. The reason for separate spaces is because women ARE more vulnerable.
Screw off. It's not your decision. 😊
I bet we'll see her again in few years time saying she regrets it, watch
Most likely not because not everyone regrets it
girl what?
you feel right but you won't in the judgement day :)
