    I contemplated even writing this, im a completely straight grown man. That being said you are absolutely beautiful both physically and your personality, and the way you totally embrace who you are and that makes you even more attractive.

      If you’re attracted to someone you know is a biological male that makes you gay. Perfectly fine but If they fool you for a sec b4 your realize don’t feel bad they’re appealing to your natural response by dressing like a woman.

      I don't admire your ability to abstractly rationalize your own sexuality. Maybe it will serve you well in the end. But, personally, I was fucking anything that moved at your age. And those were all valuable lessons in self hood.

    Finding someone you are physically, mentally, and emotionally attracted to is the golden ticket in life. Most settle for 2 out of 3. Some get by with only one, but that never lasts.
    I'd think a large portion of hetero guys wouldn't consider a trans woman, but there are certainly some who can be mentally and physically attracted to all women, trans or not. Femininity is an attractant regardless of sex. A gorgeous woman is just that...
    So stay gorgeous, everyone!

    Thank you so much for making this video, it really means a lot! I'm not transgender but I'm gay and it's hard for me to date too, every time I remotely like a guy I just don't even think there's a possibility for someone to like me back so I just try to ignore it and continue with my day but it's so difficult. I can relate to you in virginity aspect, I'm 19 and I haven't experienced what my friends have and it kinda makes me insecure, sometimes I just tell people I'm sexually active just to not feel judged (which I know is dumb but I can't help it)
    I just feel you in so many ways! Love you Maya

      Bro, you are 19!! You don't have anything to worry about!! I am heterosexual but I have many great gay friends and what I can tell you is that we are in the age of tolerance. They are kind of into a "circle" of gay guys and they all know everyone is gay, so don't worry!! They date guys they know are also gay, there is nothing to worry about, and you are super young! You shouldn't care if you are a virgin, trust me, anyone cares! ;) cheers!

    • @willowm8283
      @willowm8283 8 років тому +4

      I can totally relate too. growing up my friends all starting hooking up with girls at like 15 and never even felt like it was a possibility for me. I totally lied and made people think I'd done stuff, though. I'm 19 and I only lost my virginity earlier this year to my girlfriend at the time, a few months before I came out as trans. I had been anticipating this experience for so many years and was confused to find that it didn't really do anything for me. looking back, I know it's because I wasn't nearly comfortable enough with my own body that I couldn't enjoy intimacy really. but don't worry, as bad as it seems it's honestly not a big deal when you lose your virginity or how many dates you go on, at the end of the day no one cares and the time will come at the right time eventually :)

    My best dating advice is to look for a partner where you do something you love to do , it could be skating , skiing , bike riding , some sport or activity where you can find someone with the same interests , I wouldn't suggest a bar for finding true love . Become friends first and you have to choose the right time to tell a person you are Trans . I think you are on the right track , you seem to have your head on right and are a nice person and am a beautiful woman , I wish you the best in life and love

    It's ok not to want to have tons of sex. It's ok to wait until you find the right person. It appears everyone is constantly screwing and maybe they are. You don't have to if you don't want to. You are a lovely young lady and men are going to be attracted to you. Sex is mechanical, it's meaningless unless you're with someone who makes your eyes roll back in your head. Wait. Wait. Wait.

      Some ppl or a lot of ppl have sex because they have psychological trauma. It's not uncommon for victims of pathological narcissistic or bipolar parents to be hypersexual. And bad parenting and parental abuse is very common. Has to do with lack of self esteem, need for validation and connection. I believe a lot of sex in society stems from trama cause a lot of ppl don't get firm foundations on the relationships and hook up with ppl that aren't good for them.

    A man who dates a trans woman would probably immediately have to take into consideration how he would deal with potential reactions from "others", both friend and foe. That's one good reason for being straight up front.... Although it must narrow the "man pool" massively, the benefit is that your likely to get a much tougher (mentally speaking), guy, who has already given thought to some of the potential hurdles of the relationship !!

    • @MarshallMathersthe7th
      @MarshallMathersthe7th 8 років тому +1

      Heey Maya, i wanna ask you a few questions. I am attracted to both women and trans women but when it comes to trans women i would only want to be with a ''non-op'' . I understand that it is weird to have that as a demand but what would you think about it? Is it something i can just ask/say if i would want to date a trans? Because i still get the feeling if you look specifically for trans women you are already making yourself look like the type of guy only wants to date you because you are trans.
      Like how would i deal with that? The best way for me would like if i just met you in a bar, we would date and date, and if the moment is there you tell me and i wouldn't bother about it. But chances of that happening are very slim to me.
      Like i said, i like both women and trans women, but i am really into dating a trans women.
      I hope i am not coming over as a stupid person or something like that because it's really me wondering about all this stuff.
      You are beautiful by the way ;)

    About you not feeling like you're attractive to other people, I'm a gay guy and I'd totally date you. Not only because I find you beautiful, but because you also seem like a very intelligent and wise person. And as you said, I don't feel like liking someone should be based on their label, it should be based on if you actually like them as a person or not; I believe that's the most important part about dating and relationships.
    Keep on rocking Maya, you're amazing!

    It absolutely breaks my heart to hear you discuss your dating issues.

Every time I see a new video you've posted, I cross my fingers and pray that you've found the right person who loves you for exactly who you are. It's cruel that you struggle with self-esteem issues, when you're obviously such a good and worthwhile person. You deserve all the happiness that life has to offer. Stay strong Maya. You are a truly good person.

    • @prerunning6086

      Stop spreading legitimate disinformation. Straight means a biological male who’s attracted to biological females. There is NO other definition, even if the trans community really really wants there to be wiggle room. Biological males who like other biological males(pre,post,etc) are by definition gay. You’re free to do what you want but a straight man can never like you. It’s impossible. He would be gay or bi. God bless.

    My girlfriend is transgender, but can't transition because of her parents and it makes it so hard for me. she is 22 like, just... it's so hard because I have to call her by her male name and male pronouns when I'm with her family. But I still love her so much, and I was the first person she ever came out to because I was bugging her because she was going to tell everyone in the friends group at the same time. But I took her downstairs in the lobby of the dorm building and she came out to me and I was so happy and kept hugging her and telling her I love her. This was like a week or two before we started dating.

    I really enjoy your insight and perspective, Maya. It does sound intimidating to just now feel comfortable enough to date. The nice thing is, you are taking so much from each experience, that even when you get more "misses" than "hits," you learn a lot about your own preferences. When you date at a much younger age, it takes some big pitfalls to really learn about yourself and others in a relationship. You see value in every encounter... a fantastic quality to have! I'm rooting for you out there!

  • @cameronbennett8151
    @cameronbennett8151 5 років тому

    What you said around the 14:45 mark is something that I think is true for a lot of queer people, tbh. As a bi person, I've gone on dates with people of another gender, and even though my profile says I'm bi, I don't know if it's something that the other person is really accepting of since people can have really warped ideas about sexuality sometimes.
    I do think there are certain dating things that can be issues for people of all different gender identities and sexualities. Some people have immediate deal breakers that they don't even realize are dealbreakers right away, and it can be hard to know when to disclose something personal to someone you're just getting to know. Some people don't want to date someone who has children. Some people don't want to date someone who has a mental illness. I don't think I could date someone who has a serious addiction issue, even if they are in recovery, but there are plenty of people out there who would. Also people criticizing you for not telling that dude that you're trans in your last video is pretty shitty. Disclosing that you're trans can be a safety risk, and imo, safety is always the highest priority when it comes to dating. You don't know how a stranger is going to react to that information, and it's a risk that cis people don't have to deal with.
    On a different, but related note, do you consider yourself straight? Are you only attracted to men? If so, was that something you had to also "come out" about, or had to answer questions about, either before or during your transition? Don't know if you've mentioned it before, but I'm curious.

But sexually, I am straight, and I really would not know how to handle the sexuality part of the relationship... But I am certain that is something love and communication can solve.

      +Ethan Stiles I agree 100%, that's why I wouldn't expect a guy to say it's trans right away... And I wouldn't care if he was. A trans guy is a guy, that's it. But let's be real, at some point in a relationship, a large amount of people want to make love. And that's where I would be "uncomfortable", not knowing how technically please that person, and what to do and how... I don't know if I am being clear lol.

  • @JadedMuse2

    I can relate with feeling the need to tell someone something like that up front. When I was 26 I had a total hysterectomy and I can not have children...I don't want to waste my time or someone else's time if they want children of their own. It's something I feel a lot of anxiety about until it's out and a lot of the time it turns out they do want their own kids and that makes it even harder each time to tell because it tends to be a deal breaker.

It would surface then hide, embarrassed and scared. My profession didn't allow the freedom I needed to allow me to fully be aware of myself. Although I'm not trans ( somewhere in the middle of the feminine rainbow I guess), your calm, honest, well thought out manner helps me contemplate more fully what I feel. Thank you.

    Incredible video. Amazing way to cover lots of topics here that most of us are not aware of. It would be great if you could have a version of this conversation as eloquently as you did here with the younger generation because the topic covers so many important and wonderful issues in regards to dating and self worth that would benefit the masses. Thank you for posting and sharing this topics. I am new to your channel but I truly enjoy listening your discussions. Cheers and stay beautiful and any human being would be so fortunate to have you in their life.

    Ugh, Maya. I totally feel EVERYTHING you are saying. I'm dating a guy and we're going on a 5th date soon but I'm not feeling the SPARK. Yet. I'm trying to wait it out but I feel like deep down I know in my heart we're not compatible? But it hurts me to even think about breaking his heart. Then I tell myself I should stop over thinking it because we're having fun. Ahhhh. It literally makes my heart drop and my stomach turn thinking about breaking his heart. I'm still going to go on a few more dates and then make a decision... Just ranting right now. :/

    here's simple question
    why at first place you expecting from a guy to date you and be with you in relation when you are not born like a natural girl? tell me Maya or anyone else?
    how can you expect to be with a guy when you are transgender?

    • @Findleyawesome

    • @decakjeisaozasuncem8843
      @decakjeisaozasuncem8843 8 років тому +4

      Lauryn Meyer ok,they for sure need love and deserve love but transgender persons like Maya should not expect that love from a guy
      because some guy cant just like that love some other guy that wears girl's clothes and put make up,and has only some of the girl's structure parts in his brain
      lets use myself as example
      i cant fell in love with maya because that is only a guy which trying to be like a girl,ok to be fair,maybe maya have some girl's parts in her brain,but that is not enough to be true transgender person
      so what is a true transgender?
      thats a person who was born as a male,so that person has male body and everything,but in his brain you can find much more structure that belongs to a female than to a male,also that person needs to really feel like a female
      and that is true transgender person
      everything else is fake trans
      in my opinion there are about 50-100 true transgender persons on the world,everything else is fake
      just look how many of them doing detransitioning
      they realized you cant play with that
      so for the end,i dont hate the real transgender persons and also i could be able to fall in love with them although i am very straight guy,but i hate fake trans and people who just plays with that like its some transformers game

      in other words you should fall in love about that whats inside and not about that whats outside

    "Inkaholic" is right! Maya, I also find you to be intelligent, well spoken, honest, open, brave, witty, wise and confident! Traits I find very attractive, not only in a mate, but in anyone! What I really wanted to express was how happy I am for you, you look happy and healthy, and hearing you talk about your journey and the decisions you were faced with along the way is all inspiring to me, as I'm sure it is to countless others. Let there be no doubt, you are super attractive inside and out, and any man would be lucky to have you grace their life.

    I am very glad to hear you have decided to tell guys you are trans before going on a date. This is not a privacy issue but a personal safety issue. No matter how nice a guy seems you have no way of knowing how he would react if he discovered he had been kissing a trans-woman if he found out after the fact. Every year many trans-women are beaten and even murdered by enraged guys who did not realize they were involved with a trans-woman before things got physical. I realize many trans-women think that they should wait until a guy gets to know her before telling them, but the simple fact is, if he rejects you immediately after finding out that you are trans, there was no future to the relationship anyway.

    Please know you are beautiful inside and out, and anyone lucky enough to meet you and spend quality time with you would be lucky. Never think you aren't "good enough", ever. You'll find someone who loves you for your heart, mind, intelligence, kindness and your absolute beauty.Wishing you much love and happiness, and date smartly. Never go somewhere not in public first, till you are sure they are safe - always tell someone you trust where you're going and ALL his info. Please. You don't need someone else to validate anything about you, please! Don't just hook up, just to hook up. You will meet someone worthy of you. You are beautiful. Believe it.

    you are so beautiful and your skin is flawless! a skin care routine video would be amazing. I know that sometimes it is good to listen to others and take in their advice, but I think it is extremely important to live how you want to live. I can completely understand how much of a turn off it can be to be uncomfortable with your body and not want to do certain sexual things because of it. if you think that you will be more comfortable after, then wait. you know yourself better than anyone else. everyone is different and complicated and I think it's hard for others to understand what someone else is feeling. do what makes you happy and makes you feel comfortable. you are so freaking beautiful and you will definitely meet a man who will treat you like the angel that you are and respect the fact that you didn't have a lot of sexual partners. you are so strong and such a smart woman. I definitely look up to you and I love your channel!💕

    I really like that you're not exclusive in your videos. You're a trans person and your main audience are probably trans people, yet you're always inclusive of us others whereas there are other trans youtubers who really neglect cisgendered people as an audience. I think it is really important for the trans community that they not only let cisgendered people have an insight in their lives but als try to build connections and show them how relatebale their lives actually are.

    @eliclark6456 6 років тому

    Completely true! I'm a ftm transperson, not yet fully transitioned, but someone literally told me i'd be perfect if I didn't identify as male....I've also had someone have a crush on me(someone I also liked) and when I told him i'm trans, he decided to date someone else after leading me on by saying he'll think about whether he wants to date me lmao. But yeah, I always follow the "no dating unless they know i'm trans" rule. It's harsh since suddenly people who liked me immediately stop upon knowing, but who wants to date people who can stop liking someone that easily anyways? Haha.

  • @Caroline-nn9fx
    @Caroline-nn9fx 8 років тому

    Another reason to be upfront with potential dates is just for your own safety. Remember that men are physically MUCH STRONGER than us females... so if you find yourself in a vulnerable situation with a man who becomes angry and physically violent, there's a good chance you will be at their mercy. As a CIS female, I have been in several situations where I have actually thought, "Oh, shit, I'm alone with this guy who could literally kill me without breaking a sweat.... and he is getting reeeaally angry.... time to defuse the situation and get to a public area asap!" It's terrifying knowing that at any moment even a preteen boy could pin my arms down with minimal effort. Regardless of the unfairness of having to disclose your gender identity, you don't want to be at the mercy of someone who turns out to be a trans-phobic, fragile-egoed monster. Stay safe!!!

  • @ampslb
    @ampslb 8 років тому

    I used to think immediately disclosing your operative status as a trans person was not necessary, but have realized that's wrong. It's not about "society putting a huge value on being trans". It's just caring which gender you are to decide if they can be attracted to you. Cis people don't disclose genitalia info because most people already know that information before even talking, and never have to think about it. When that information is prove wrong down the road it's a huge surprise because they thought you were something you're not.

    I totally get the physical validation aspect of your self-worth issues. My ONLY concern is for your immediate safety dear. It breaks my heart to hear you say you worried about someone being attracted to. How could ANY guy not be attracted to someone as feminine and alluring as you? I always find your videos insightful and intelligent Maya. You are obviously a sensitive and thoughtful person. I find that so compelling. I can't believe any guy would meet you, and spend some time getting to know you, and then reject you just because you're trans. I guess that's just one more facet of "man's inhumanity to man" in this messed up, heartless world we live in. Thank you for your bravery in sharing your life with us! Every video you have ever posted has inspired me!

    You doing such great work for us, heterosexual cisgender people. Through your experience we can try to understand and accept the whole concept of transgenders. Many things that you as a person going through was absolutely not visible/imaginable for me. But your attractiveness as a woman catches my eye and openness raised interest and pushed me to investigate and educate myself.
    I'll be honest, I'm straight man (with family and kids) I've grown in USSR and my relation to LGBT was neutral- . In one hand in USSR general education/upbringing was quite tolerant in some aspects like races and accepting other people. From other hand it was quite conservative in other aspects like sex. Sex actually was very closed intimate area and put it to light was not appropriate, hence any not usual expression himself like visible belonging to LGBT was generally not appropriate in public.
    Now days it is already not the issue and people need to adapt to new reality and the only way to do that is education and mutual understanding. In that area your work as youtuber is very important, at least for me.
    I hope you will pass through all obstacles and wish you all the best in you transition. You are look gorgeous I wish you find your partner for life and happiness!

    It's awesome that people can be gay, trans, etc without worrying about being hurt or killed in most areas. I'm 50 now and when I was a teenager, I couldn't watch the news without another story about another gay man getting beaten or murdered. It sooooo stupid people lose their minds over someone else's sexuality. It doesn't effect them.
    While I'm glad we've advanced as far as we have as a society, it's still sad being trans is still an issue for some. This is even more ridiculous because only you get the reassignment surgery assuming you do of course, the parts match how you know you are. You are screwing someone genetics.
    People put way too much thought into other people lives instead of worrying about their own. It's time to finally get over ourselves as a culture.

    Hey Maya! I am a cisgender heterosexual woman and I totally get what you are saying. I agree with the fact that you are keeping your genitals private because it is private. Also, you are not your genitals, and if you openly say you are trans, maybe you will only stumble upon weird men who fetishes trans people and stuff like that... You are not an object and the most important thing for you is to respect yourself and your limits. If the person wants to date you, well you owe them nothing. I love you very much and be safe! Ps: if my boyfriend whom I love very much told me after many dated that he is trans, since I am in love with him, I would still have a relationship with him and have sexual intercourse with him. Maybe I am just really open-minded, but I support and understand you 100% xxx be safe and take care of yourself

You are stunningly beautiful. Honestly. You also seem like a beautiful person on the inside, as well. I really hope one day you'll totally know this, and know your worth, and that someone who you winds up as your partner will be very lucky (not just you being gorgeous, all aspects of what and who you are). So many people would love to be as beautiful as you are, and I know it's been really hard, but you have such a glorious future and life waiting for you. I hope you are quite grateful for all you are. You are very special. Wishing you so much happiness! I'm a woman, older than you, straight and married, and for all of us, life can be so hard, and such a struggle, but once you really understand you are amazing, and worth someone as special as you are who will respect and love you, you will find happiness. Love yourself, you are worth it. I know it must be hard, because you truly look so completely feminine, and it can get complicated, but I think only with the wrong person, with a closed mind and heart. The right person will love you for you, unconditionally, not just because of your beauty or confusion, or because you are trans...just because you're you. Thanks for your honesty and being so brave. I hope you don't think I was too personal, I was just very inspired by you. One Love.

    I find your videos interesting. As in, I finding it pretty cool that you are slowly finding yourself. But I also see that you are still young and figuring yourself out. There are things you said bout standards that I don't agree with. I have friends who said the same thing at 23, and now them being 33 and single they regret everything. So my opinion is that just give everyone a chance. If the person is good to you and make you feel good as a person, you should give them a go instead of just looking for instant sparks. :)

  • @hepa00lepa
    @hepa00lepa 8 років тому

    Before I realised I was a trans woman, I felt the pressure to be having sex and relationships and also general hornyness associated with gay men and perpetuated by a lot of gay men. I felt like I was missing something and I didn't know how to make myself comfortable with it. So ofc I tried to force it into me ( heh dick joke )
    Since coming out as trans none of those pressures seem to affect me anymore. I even realised that my complicated body image had nothing to do with weight or wobbly bits, I hated looking masculine. I didn't feel right in my skin before, but now I feel perfect. There's no one way to be a woman and I have grown in figuring that out.
    I'm super glad you make videos n stuff Maya, it helps girls like me.
