"Thank you so much to We are Yuvaa and Nikhil Taneja sir for featuring Aryan Pasha Bhaiya on 'Be A Man, Yaar.' The episode was truly amazing! Society often overlooks trans men when discussing masculinity, but you made sure to highlight this important perspective. Grateful for this representation!"
The main positive difference in his life than many others is that he found the safe space, the good support at home & around from the very beginning & this is something we are seriously not used to see or hear or learn about.
I m halfway through the interview and i couldn't help myself but to come and comment here... The way both of you are discussing the mentality of our society is so true... I have always been a tomboy and have faced bullying in my life, i can't even imagine what he has to go through... And bullying is so normalised in our society, the bully doesn't even realise many times that it's actually harming the one infront of them... Bullying sometimes came from my near and dear ones, at least whom i considered near and dear... And at that age i did not have any idea how to make the realise that it's not okay to be like that...
Wishing Aryan live a happy life always... And i appreciate the way he thinks... Much love :)
Be the way you are... love yourself the way you are... you are really a strong man Aryan bhaiya.. god bless you ❤️
❤❤

Majority of people don't know that there's a difference between sex and gender
This needs to be publicized
We need to get over stereotypes

Bhaiya mere saath bhi yahi problem hai ki mujhe ladka bannaa hai or maine apne parents se transition ke baare me baat Kari to wo bolte hai ki isse accha tum mar jao agar yahi sab karna hai maine ek baar nhi bhut baar bola unse but koi mujhe nhi samajh raha h or sabse badi baat agar aap ghar me bade ho to shyad apki baat koi samajh sake but hum Ghar me sabse chote hai to hamesha hume har cheez karne se mana kar diya jaata h or iss wajah se hum bhut akela feel karte h or apni baat kisi ke saath share nhi karte hamesha akele ghut te rehte hai or is wajah se depression ho gya magar ye bhi mere gharwalo ko nhi maloom meri sabse badi problem meri badi behen hai kyuki wo hi mere mummy papa ko bol deti hai ki ye transition wagera se kuch nhi hoga life barbaad ho jayegi but me chup ho jata hun ki wo meri badi behen hai or Mai duniya me sabse jyada pyaar bhi usi se karta hoon bhaiya bataiye ab mai kya karoon😢😢😢😢
Independent bano financially. Tabhi kisi par nirbhar nahi hona padega aur khud ke decisions le paaoge. Sab khilaaf ho jaye tab bhi yaad rakhna ki isme tumhaari galti nahi hai. Sirf hum hi apne aap ko samajh sakte hai.
I genuinely have a question, if you do not have testes then how were you able to build such muscles even before taking anything
Muscle building has nothing to do with testosterone or testes. It's weight training and strict diet. Many women are body builders too. Really worried you think this way???
@@mxnike94 not but the women who are as muscular as them, are almost always on test.
Please help me understand this, and pardon my ignorance
@@anirudhupadhyay695 Human bodies all have testosterone and progesterone in them. Levels vary across genders. If you're saying that testosterone alone causes muscle built, you can also say that due to every one being born with the hormones have access to building muscles. Can biologically everyone has testosterone. If you see there's women with more testosterone or less testosterone. Its present in everyone.
His cheek bones his voice his stature everything is shouting loud that he is a male physically. Nobody has seen his genitals
This whole thing can be a hoax.
Bhai ye toh pura ladka hi lag raha hai itna advance hota jaa raha surgery yaar damn
Very much hope raised through this... Does anyone know about the counselor for sex reassignment surgery, who can give free counselling
Why dont we see this kind of support for transwomen?
I meant the overwhelming voices of support here in the comments from all kinds of people.
Compared to jokes and trolls yhat feature transwomen.
Patriarchy affects men too. Toxic masculinity I guess
This is also fixing when you go for physical change.
i have one genuine question to ask....does the transition medically help in growing the male private part?
ye laxmi ka pati h
its sad that gender dysmorhia is being glorifying instead of being treated
It's not any illness to be treated.
@tjr1421 mutilating healthy body parts is a mental illness, its called gender dysmorphia, please research about it
Are you jealous of him look how handsome and charming he is better than you
@@tjr1421 cutting off healthy body parts is an illness, its called gender dysmorphia, please research it
@@pritamsingha8988 im not jealous of her, im a mature woman, i say this out of sadness, i feel sorry for her, she had gender dysmorhpia as a child, instead of treating her mental illness, her step mother has encouraged to permanently damaged her body
Wash room use nhi kiya to Indian citizens par koi Ehsan kiya?
Jaise ki Tmne ye comment krke koi ehsan kiya
This is also fixing when you go for physical change.
