This helps me so much as a mother of a trans (f to m) son. I've never had any difficulty understanding it, to me that's like struggling with my child having blue eyes. But I don't have the perspective of what it's like to be gay and trans in society and I feel like this is the closest I can get to understanding. I think he's afraid to talk about the hard parts. I'm grateful that the Matthew Shepard days have passed but progress is never fast enough.
@@LunarEleven awww your son has such a great parent to look up to. I came out to my mom the very next year from this comment and it went alright. We had our phase to getting used to the new dynamic but I cannot belive that she loves my girlfriend so much and supports me a lot. Your son might not tell you all of the details but it's so important to know he can count on you no matter what. I wish him the best in his journey 🥰🥰
Flappy Boi through all the sketches I’ve watched him and this podcast, I started from out right hating him in Hot Date to loving him in See Plum Run and the CH sketches
As a gen z'er, it makes me really happy to feel this millennial solidarity!! We are natural allies in the generation war and I'm happy for your comradeship
I really relate to the question about being embarrassed about coming out despite an accepting environment. With my parents, I constantly worry about making them feel like they've done something wrong or aren't doing enough. I think this is partly because of internalized transphobia and partly because being trans is fucking scary and I know they don't want to see me hurt. It makes me so sad that I have theses barriers with them even though I know that any worry they have comes from a place of love. With everyone else, I'm just worried I'll come out and then they'll start asking questions I don't have the answers to and that always makes me feel so exhausted. I still haven't come out to like half my teachers because there are 2 months left of school and I'm like "I just don't know if I can work up the strength to deal with that."
My best friend really didn't understand bisexuality, but he liked the term sexual fluidity, he could accept that I have gay/straight phases, but not that to me gender is like hair color to monosexual people... he's become progressively less homophobic each week though, I'm so proud of him
I look forward to this podcast so much! You guys are so awesome, especially Ally. Ally is such an inspiration to me especially because we both come from such conservative family backgrounds.
Grant was talking about Jordan Peterson. Right? Cus' he shouldn't ger in trouble for calling a fearmongering transphobe a fearmongering transphobe. Just saying. Also pleaaaase being Natalie Wynn aka Contrapoints to the show!
I've been checking into this channel a bunch for a new Tales from the Closet podcast (bc I'm too poor for DropOut) !! I'm so glad it's here!! my gay heart is full
This might sound dumb, but could you guys put people's pronouns under their names when they're introduced? Like Ally, they/them? It's an lgbt+ podcast and it's just easier than the faff of people awkwardly introducing themselves
My son's "coming out" to me was the worst timing. He wasn't yet trans so he just texted me and said he needed to tell me something, and I said go ahead but had to run to the bathroom. She said "I'm a lesbian" and I didn't respond for like 8 minutes and she was freaking out. I felt so horrible when I came back and realized she had thought I wasn't even responding 😭 I definitely understood why s/he was afraid to tell me over the phone, I pretty much accidentally validated his fear.
I've told a family member I thought I liked girls, they said nah I'm not. I also said I thought I was asexual, they also said "nah ur just not ready yet or havent found the right person". So I've just kinda given up.
KERA! I love the song so much! It is so captivating, I am already obsessed. Another f a n t a s t i c episode as usual. I was really starting to miss this. And Grant...... please consider marrying me. I am Indian and unemployed but still. Think about it.
I love this podcast but I wish there was more trans rep aside from just the same person every episode (maybe Jackson Bird, Aaron Ansuini, or some other non controversial trans youtuber). Also "you're so brave", I'm dead
Is there any chance there could be a binary trans person on the show it would be great to hear some other people’s stories as I am a trans male who is also bi.

This podcast is such a good thing. I'm an 18 y/o lesbian in the closet and this just makes me feel not alone. I've listened to every single one.
I hope you can one day find the ability and moment to come out, you can do it!

Me acting straight was a phase
I'm acting one now but in my alone spare time I saved all image and videos of hot and cute guys
I wish I'd had this podcast as a kid 😭💕

oh strange, i’ve never heard that specific brand of biphobia. it’s been a hot minute so i hope he’s all the way there now, or close

Great representation from my Puertorican and Dominican people!!!🇵🇷🇩🇴

ContraPoints and CollegeHumor together would complete my life 😍
That would be incredibly

I've been checking into this channel a bunch for a new Tales from the Closet podcast (bc I'm too poor for DropOut) !! I'm so glad it's here!! my gay heart is full
I literally got goosebumps when i read the title.
I guess that's the point 😂😂
As someone who has changed their label about 20 times, that section on changing labels (44:42) was the best! Thank you! Makes me feel so less alone
I love ally ❤️
AGREE!!
ugh seeing it on instagrma and then having to wait is killing me :’(
I'm a straight teenage girl and I LIVE for these podcasts!
I love this podcast!!!
Ah yeah! Another podcast! We love a good gay podcast for a beautiful weekend!
i was just listening to girls like girls
i was just listening to Sleepover
Love the channel XD
Yay I missed Grant ❤️
This might sound dumb, but could you guys put people's pronouns under their names when they're introduced? Like Ally, they/them? It's an lgbt+ podcast and it's just easier than the faff of people awkwardly introducing themselves
Chloe C wit ally is they/them?
@@salamilidaintgonfit7576 yeah
It's mainly a podcast so they need to make sure the people who only listen get important info
"Now i know that i am gay. The proof i have? None." Hahaha sameeee!!

The moment Kera said hey I was goooone
This podcast for the love of me is bringing out the thirst in me I didn't know I had, it's dangerous
The worldwide penpal idea is so nice, yet unfortunately I think you still can’t get Dropout/Discord outside of the US 😞
I wish I had podcast when I was in the closet
I've told a family member I thought I liked girls, they said nah I'm not. I also said I thought I was asexual, they also said "nah ur just not ready yet or havent found the right person". So I've just kinda given up.
I just got on dropout, turns out I can't join the discord because I'm not from the US. Is dropout access coming to international subscribers? :c
The candle bit is the best thing ever.
KERA! I love the song so much! It is so captivating, I am already obsessed.
Another f a n t a s t i c episode as usual. I was really starting to miss this.
And Grant...... please consider marrying me. I am Indian and unemployed but still. Think about it.
YESYESYES😊
as a straight man, i wish to have the style and swagger of kera
Love my little brother. Morthyn Brito
Me putting up with myself acting like a guy is just a phase. A 30 year long phase. fml
love these
I love this podcast but I wish there was more trans rep aside from just the same person every episode (maybe Jackson Bird, Aaron Ansuini, or some other non controversial trans youtuber). Also "you're so brave", I'm dead
I'd like to hear more of bisexual cis males too... I thing they had more trans people than bi cis males
This video is just a phase
To everyone who gets annoyed at people for switching labels. IT'S CONFUSING OKAY?
Wait it’s not a phase? Shit I’m gay forever
Is that Kera from Kera and the Lesbians? I love their music
Still waiting for my parents to realize that I'm not gonna do the ol switcheroo and marry a woman
therapist going through ally's brain like "damn you really live like this?"
Why didn’t I know about this podcast before?????!!!
Is there any chance there could be a binary trans person on the show it would be great to hear some other people’s stories as I am a trans male who is also bi.

There is a myth that if you guess every one of these people's gender correct the first try, you will receive a pot of gold
