      I'm glad that bi-erasure is happening and that many forms of media will use 'bisexual' when they mean 'bicurious' and then totally invalidate our identity before the end of the episode because of PEOPLE. LIKE. YOU.

This morning I thought of this song/bit and thought I'd watch it again for the first time since starting my transition.

    So glad finally someone drew some attention to that issue. I can so relate to that and finally, finally I can feel a little more secure now, knowing that there are celebrities now that actually stand by what they truly are and don't try to hide or mask it.
    Back when Elton John got his hair job I felt very insecure, feeling like I should probably do the same and continue to live a lie, knowing that it would only be fake, knowing that I would be lying to myself and others, but now I can finally say no to the rug I have been pondering.
    I'm bald. And I'm proud. I dare to say it loud now, and Lee, thank you!

      Chris...because people really don't care. The people who have the issue are the ones accusing everyone else of having an issue. Even the terms "transphobic" and "homophobic" are ridiculous. The definition of phobia is 'extreme, irrational fear'. So people who don't agree with the trans agenda being pushed on everyone are automatically labeled extreme and irrational. Which is just wrong..factually and objectively ...wrong.

    OK so I have spent the past ten years it seems occasionally pulling up the 2009 Melbourne International Comedy Festival appearance of the Chords Song. It is one of my go to comedy songs that cheers me up no matter what. Comedy gold. Only tonight have I thought to look for other Axis material. And so only tonight have I found this. I thought it was a wind up and a brilliantly acerbic cut at intolerance. Then I googled it and found out Jordan was in fact trans. That put it in a new light. This performance, this song and the lyrics and delivery is better in most ways than the Chords song. It is scintillating and cuts like a scalpel. Just absolutely comedy mastery of a topic that is so touchy it seems. God I am so impressed. Well done AoA for this display of utter badassery.

    Completely disgusting. The Bible clearly says "Do not cut the hair at the sides of your head or clip off the edges of your beard."

I mean, it's cool with Jordan being transgender, ("There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female" Galatians 3:28) but baldness is an afront!

    I listened to this without watching the video or knowing about Jordans transition beforehand. Needless to say I was confused all the way right up to the punchline, but had a field day relistening (maybe a bit too often for good health).
    Really nice way of adressing the elephant in the room.

    I think it's just disgusting. As it says in Leviticus 21:5 "'They shall not make any baldness on their heads, nor shave off the edges of their beards, nor make any cuts in their flesh." What a freak!

    You know what I think is awesome? Out of the over 347,000 people who have seen this video, only 102 of them gave it a thumbs down.
    Only.
    One hundred.
    and two.
    Proving that the Axis of Awesome fanbase is truly the best fanbase on the internet.

    Greetings from America! My Australian best friend sent me this video. I just wanted to say that this is such A++ content, it perfectly shows how ridiculous people's reactions to transitioning are. I wanted to say you're all extremely beautiful and great singers and I'm so glad you're doing you without shame. Thanks for your lighthearted take on the matter, this topic gets me down a lot.

    • @ironeius
      @ironeius 8 років тому +20

      +Rhys Merrett It's perfectly normal. In this culture we are still not accustomed to these kind of changes people make. even if you are open minded the prejudice in western world make us see it as "unnatural" and "not normal".
      Awareness like yours is required to stop cathegorizing bald people. As a long haired guy i totally support baldness acceptance

      As someone who is trans in the other direction, I'm a little jealous she was assigned a unisex name at birth... If only! Ha ha. At least I'm not socially transitioning on a literal stage, though! She's got some guts, yo.

      Krotor Kreepy You sound like the kind of person who blacks out all their windows with newspapers and gets all their groceries delivered.

      Jack KissMyAspergers If I could afford it I would but I have a job (ironically at a grocery store) and need to go out and work in the real world for money.
      Also I'd smoke a bowl but I don't have nor have I ever had access to marijuana.
      BUT I do really appreciate how chill you are, so I'm sorry for being confrontational.
