      Lies, and lies, they are sharing you their lies. And you believe them daily, as you go and ruin your own lives.
      Lies, oh lies, they know not how to care. They know not how to love, what its to have a heart warmly beating in your chest.
      They have lost their mind, they have gone mad and they drag you with them into the outer darkness of insanity.
      Seek ye GOD and get your mind back, get back your life and your will to live, escape the madness.
      Your are not trans or any other lie, which you daily believe.
      You are FOOLS, who are deceived daily.
      You reject the BIBLE - the only source of truth, thats why lies you buy and suffer thereafter.
      To believe trans lies, one must got to forget, why was gender given in the 1st place.
      Genesis 9:7
      And you, be ye fruitful, and multiply; bring forth abundantly in the earth, and multiply therein.
      Sexual abuses every soul has lived through, every one carries the traumas.
      It is not GOD, toward whom we should be angry. Its the ones amongst us, who have once lost their minds:
      through the same abuse, that you are suffering, carrying all the damaged form the birth to the death, haven`t been cared for.
      And the influences of this world, are as strong as these are, no child is kept safe.
      Marriages have changed, many in love with bottles, eating away their brains.
      Many love smoking, burning away their lungs.
      Many love fornication and abusements.
      They all hate their skin, in which they live, cause they allowed the world in.
      Lies stay lies, no matter how often given. If the end result is death or a lifelong suffering, you`re then missing love.

      @@natalieueno gender disphoria is the intense stress in your brain when your gender identity doesnt match your sex (your body, social roles, pronouns, etc). The feeling is like a voice that highlights every detail you perceive about yourself that "unmatch" that idea of "you", being "too feminine" or "too masculine". Its different for every person who experiences and its not always true ("my voice is too high" but only you think that)

      so, I like being a girl, doing girly things, wearing "girly" clothes and painting my nails (i know that boys can do that too, but ppl usually think that boys can't do those things) but I'm really sad with myself. I think I'd be happier as a boy and that being a girl sucks. I don't know what to do, actually.

      @@natalieueno its no problem if you like "girly things". I would question myself WHY you'd be happier as a boy. Being a girl sucks because society is mostly ruled by man or because you dont feel like its YOU? Dont feel like you're really living your true life? (Gender wise). You can experiement, its harmless. Go online and try a "masc" name and pronouns, make friends and see how you feel. Tuck your hair in a beanie and dress the most masc you never dressed, see how u feel. No pressure, youre just trying things out.
      You also dont need to identify as a man or a woman. You can feel like both, or neither, or fluid, etc

    I definitely relate and understand about the "buildup" thing. I just came out on Instagram as Trans Non-binary last week. I knew I was trans for probably 2 years but I didn't want to tell people yet. I just wasn't ready. Watching your videos over this last year along with other transitions have been so helpful and really gave my courage to live the life I want and need, regardless of how others think. I have been on a low-dose testosterone since Feb 2021. I am so happy! I want more changes but I'm so happy to be on the way to being where I want to be.
    There is definitely a difference in orgasms pre-t versus being on T. I liked the feeling of it on both ends. Pre-T there is like an overwhelming full body experience and then what I would describe as an "afterglow" but it's different after testosterone is primary in your body. It is definitely more centralized in the genitalia.
    Thanks again for making these videos!!

    I have hair on my legs, butt, lower back, forearms, fingers, and toes, AND I have a "snail trail" and I'm a WOMAN😅 When you said that you were growing hair in new areas because of the testosterone, I thought that I already have hair in all those areas. I don't have hair on my chest or upper back, but in most other places. When I went on birth control the hair got thinner and shorter, but it's grown back now. It's still not extremely visible apart from a few places like calves because the hair is not that thick even now and it's blonde, but when I was younger I was ashamed of it. When I would lie in sand, the sand would stick to my back and butt hair, making it visible. Nowadays, I'm actually happy that it's back. Being on hormones is kinda scary for me. Birth control did change me a bit, and I just love being the way I am without any meds now. My hair belongs to me. I just shave where the hair is super thick.
    Btw, is it weird that I would love to try out having a beard, even though I feel 100% comfortable in my female body?😂 I once even dreamt about having a beard, and I was a bit disappointed when waking up.
