@CREATURESCONER Try to strike a deal by pretending a binder is a type of sports bra, also called a binder. “Can I at least get this, it’s for exercise” Or even exercise tape, which can work quite well, as trans tape is very similar to
@CREATURESCONER If you’re young you have PE right? You would have to exercise anyway under school regulations. Either way, exercise is good for you so convincing your mom that you’re gonna start exercising for health isn’t exactly a bad thing.
My 15 year old has recently confirmed that he is ace and I've failed as a parent. I have yet to provide him adequate supplies of garlic bread or enrolled him in the Military Ace Academy where he will learn vital skills needed to invade Denmark. Gonna get on that this week.
You haven't failed if you're making active strides to support your ace son. Just make sure you get him the correct garlic bread. Not doing so can lead to disastrous consequences. 😉
Good. We plan to go far Denmark after commotion in Eurasia have stopped. We will take it quickly and easily. ALSO MAKE SURE THAT YOUR CHILD GETS HIS DAILY DOSE OF GARLIC BREAD! Thank you, and I hope you have a good day.
Every time I see a graph or statistics about how a younger generation has more people identifying as LGBT+, I always think of the graph about how when left-handedness stopped being punished, left-handedness increased.
The youngest Gen Zs are actually born around 2012, making them 11-12 years old! The survey showing percent of LGBTQ+ by generation ends in 2003 bc the data was from 2021 and they only surveyed adults, so the portion of Gen Z that was younger than 18 at the time wasn’t included
Well my parents are homophobic so I'd take the boy But I'll secretly fall in love with the girl and she'd love me too and once we move out we'll move together get a cat that we'll call some ridiculous name and work simple jobs and once we get home we cook together and watch some movie and cuddle while our cat joins in and purrs
As an asexual, can confirm we want Denmark I would like to update this. It has been brought to my attention that a lot of other aces don't agree with this because of situations like Ukraine and Palestine. We aces want everyone to be safe and care about the people in those areas as well. Just wanted to point this out
13:13 I love the fact the satan meme could’ve either been posted by a homophobic Christian on Facebook, or as a shitpost made by a queer person on tumblr and you can’t tell the difference.
As a queer GenX, I'm so saddened that there are so very few of us. So many are buried deep in the closet or even the ground. Don't worry about forgetting us, though, we're used to it
Many of us who are Gen-X in the US lived through the AIDS epidemic in the 80's, which primarily affected men. It was a terrifying time for many LGBTQ+ people. When people (mostly men) were in the hospitals, the staff would ignore and avoid those patients and let them suffer by neglecting them, as they thought whatever they had was contagious. They suffered terribly and most died. Once they figured out it was AIDS, it took a while to determine how it was spread. Because of this, it brought on a LOT of stigma, fear and even more discrimination than before. Many people stayed silent and stayed in the closet even longer or never came out.
As an asexual myself, I have no idea what the agenda is for world domination or domination of a specific European country; I just want my puppy dog by my side and my cake and garlic bread because CARBS ARE DELICIOUS!!!!!
the gen z section of the graph about adults identifying as lgbt only goes to 2003 since its only about adults. the cutoff from gen z to gen alpha is around 2012 (sincerely, zoomer who just turned 18 a few months ago lol)
19:19 awesome news: per my university's most recent demographics survey, for the first time in the school's history, lgbtq+ is the majority, with 52% of full-time students identifying as lgbtq+ I think it all comes down to how inclusive school administration is, and how many opportunities are offered for students like me. I'm hoping this positivity, as well as the opportunity for minorities to attend higher education spreads globally. Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk
21:00 A lot of Gay Baby Boomers came out in the 1970s. Most of them were dead, dying, or hiding away with survivor's guilt by the time we Gay Gen-Xers started coming out, so we came out alone _and angry._ Because not only had almost all of our mentors died, they died slowly and horribly while the straights watched on with glee.
@@Cinnamon_Cleric Thanks, but I actually consider myself lucky, as I didn't lost any friends. Still, I met so many gay men _and lesbians_ a decade older than me who had… The 1980s were a horrible time. The only people who cared were the lesbians, which is why the 'L' comes first on the acronym - to honor all of those Sisters who were out on the front lines during the worst of the AIDS crisis.
@@John_Weiss I get what you're saying. My stepmom lost people and she doesn't talk about it often, but when she does you can see how heartbroken it left her. I think that in the climate we're currently in, it's vital to talk about this history and know that as a community, we need to have each other's backs.
@@Cinnamon_Cleric Also, _get her to talk about it!_ That not only honors the memory of her lost friends, it gets out the truth of Just. How. Badly. all of those dying gay men were _mistreated._ There's a project called the "Memory of Mankind" that is storing information on ceramic slates in a salt mine in the Alps. Anyone can submit something. I think firsthand stories of the AIDS crisis would be eagerly accepted by the people running the project.
Not only that, in the US, the AIDS epidemic was going on in the 80's which made it even worse for LGTBQ+ people, although it affected primarily gay men. Men (mostly) in hospitals were ignored and neglected by hospital staff because they thought whatever the men had was contagious. Then when it was figured out it was AIDS, it took a while to determine how it was spread. Those poor people had suffered greatly. Even if it wasn't them, many watched their loves ones suffer. I'm so sorry for everyone who has gone through these things, it was a heartbreaking time.
I dig Captain, cuz it's something that I also earned. Captain is the supervisor position in my job. Makes me feel slightly better about the middle management hell I'm stuck in. 😅
Ace bean here! We're invading Denmark, then continuing our campaign until we have total word domination! But Jae, what if I'm not asexual? Don't worry, we're going to provide universal LGBTQIA+ rights, cake, and garlic bread. The rest of the budget does go toward dragons though.
Belgium(for their baked goods), Italy( for the bread, and the gov sucks), and Greece( Their prime minister is pro lgbt but is being held back a bit by the rest of the government) are next. Be prepared… Your local ace lesbian🎉 Edit: holy blahaj so many likes…
@@wingdingfontbroWe're doing our best over here, but the Danish must've intercepted the supplies. There must've been leaks in the system, who told their Allo friends about the invasion? This was on a AROACE TO KNOW BASIS FOLKS.
I was talking to someone who thought we where 'transing the kids' and I said, 'the idea that we want to force people to be trans when the trans health care system is already at breaking point is just stupid'. It shut them up, so just thought I'd share the response since it worked.
Bi-weekly should mean twice a week. We already have a word meaning "every two weeks" - "fortnight". So anything happening once every two weeks should be "fortnightly" Thus, bisexual means "twice a sexual". "Once every two sexuals" would be "Fortsexual"
@@ErrroNotFound404 you are thinking it the wrong way, just as pansexuals and their "love for pans" fortsexual can be "love for forts" or "a fort for sexuals" and being the Fort Knox of sexuality sounds pretty badass...
I'm non-binary and I've always liked monarch as a gender neutral replacement for king/queen. Also, the Silent Generation was the one before Baby Boomers and the one after Gen Z is Gen Alpha. Btw, thank you for acknowledging us Gen Xers.
@@gallitheenbyfox If it makes you feel any better, Gens Z and Alpha are only named what they are because of the mistaken idea that the X in Gen X is alphabetical. However, it’s a variable. They didn’t know what to call us, so the X functions like it would in an algebra equation. And since Gen Y never stuck for Millennials, it wouldn’t make sense to skip a variable. If the people who name generations wanted to be uncreative again and use a variable, it should have been Y and Alpha just doesn’t work at all by that logic. Neither name makes sense.
Monarch + Regent + Ruler - Not non-binary but a genderfluid goober who uses they/them mostly cuz those are the best pronouns Edit: turns out I was Non-Binary
Duolingo is surprisingly tolerant. (Duo the Owl accepts gay couples, but will not accept you skipping your lessons!) And I'm getting close to a 1,050 day streak with Spanish.
Woo! Tengo una racha de 260 días! Had to google streak though. And yeah I notice a lot of esposo/novio from masc speakers and esposa/novia from femme speakers. Haven’t really noticed any gender neutral terms, but there may not be an agreed upon standard yet ^_^
@@Nortarachanges In Spanish for gender neutral we usually go for the ending with -e, like amigue, instead of amigo or amiga. For married people cónyuge (spouse) would be the right word, pareja (partner) is also gender neutral. I'm in 768 days in a row for English :)
@@Nortarachanges You know, I actually recall a PS5 game, Spider-Man 2, introducing a few gender neutral terms in its Spanish script. For example, a nonbinary doctor used the pronoun "they" in English, and was referred to as "Doctore" in Spanish, as opposed to "doctor" or "doctora". Some Spanish streamers online seemed to balk at the inclusion, though, so maybe it's not catching on in more media yet. But on the bright side, it's just "yet," not never.
I just reached 421 days of learning Japanese on Duolingo today. Still a long way to go to reach the thousand-day mark and more. I have yet to come across any LGBTQ+ content on there though. Hopefully I'll see it eventually. It is nice to know that Duolingo is that inclusive.
As a gen z who now identifies as bi (this has been a rather recent development for me), I can absolutely say that without society being as open and accepting as it is today I never would have questioned my sexuality or had the courage to identify as anything other than straight. I prolly could've gone my entire life just thinking I was attracted to men and kinda ignoring any attraction I had to women, or writing it off as "I just want to look like that" or something. Anyways, I'm glad for how far we've come even tho we have a lot more ground to cover
As a millennial that identifies as ace and transmasc, my path was the opposite. I realized my attraction was actually me just wishing I looked like that. 😅
But emporer is masc, empress is fem. Monarch is truly neutral, as is regent, though regent is often the person temporarily ruling on behalf of an heir who is too young to take power yet.
I'm a couple of days late seeing this vid, but Jamie talking about God and creating all the LGBTQ+'s reminded me of the meme about " if God hates the gays, why are we so cute?"
EDIT: Also I think what is happening with the explosion of people identifying as non-straight, is that a lot more "edge cases" are choosing to identify as LGBTQ+ compared to prior generations. For example, my mother (Gen X) identifies as a cis-het woman, but she has always had moods when she feels more masculine, meaning that by strict definitions, she would be genderfluid. My friend's father (Boomer) identified as a straight man, but he engaged in physical relationships with other men and all of his friends were gay men. My step mother (Gen X) also had physical relationships with other women. These are all individuals who because of the time they were raised in, identified as cis-het. To my knowledge, none of them were "closeted"- in the sense that they weren't publicly identifying as straight to protect themselves, they just didn't think too deeply about it all and were comfortable enough with societal expectations. If they were Gen Z, maybe they would have all identified as queer. The Silent Generation is before the boomers. They are called that because a huge chunk of them died in world war 2. Not sure if this is a separate generation from the Traditionalists or not? It could be an over-lapping generation thing, like how some Millenials' parents are Boomers and some are Gen X. Maybe some Boomer's parents are Silent Generation and some are Traditionalists? Anyway, Gen X doesn't have another name, as far as I know, but they were the ones who were coming of age in the 80s. The generation after Gen Z is currently being called Gen Alpha, but I feel like sometimes it takes awhile for a generation name to really stick.
Yes, gen X had it very difficult to come out. I’m fringe /late gen X and when the AIDS epidemic hit I was a young child. Bi men had it really bad at that time.
My mother's first crush was on a woman, and I didn't know that until I was 19 years old. She just never found it important to mention, but it was a little mind-blowing to me. I think she might be one of those edge cases you described.
The Silent Generation (for the U.S.) is my parent's generation, 1928-1945 (Mom in '28, Dad in '31). So, Great Depression through World War II births. At least for the U.S. (where I am) they weren't much involved in the war, as they were too young for service (though my mom did have some returning soldiers finish high school with her). Apparently they are the same as the Traditionalists, though I don't know that I'd ever heard of that. At least part of the silence was there weren't that many of them to begin with, since the depression and then the war were dampers on reproduction (which is part of what made the Baby Boom such a big deal), and then moving into the 50s (their young adulthood and teens) it was a pretty good to time to remain silent (unless you really were traditionalist, and that doesn't really set you apart from the preceding generation, so who'd notice). I mean, compared to the pre-war leftist movements and the counterculture of the sixties, they really were pretty quiet. I've always felt kind of out of place, being solidly demographically Gen X (1970), but the child of Silent Generation parents, all of whose other children were Baby Boomers (and all on their own with children by the time I was 5), and then having my own child in 2005 (Gen Z). So I wasn't raised by people who had the same generational background or assumption as my folks, nor was my kid in comparison to their peers.
Gen X were also called latchkey kids because many families had both parents working late so kids would let themselves into the house with a key hanging on the latch after playing outside after school.
Oh is she going by Suzy now? Oh no! Have I been dead naming? 😮😢 Oh please say she still goes by both. I would be so sad if I have been an asshole this whole time. 😭😭
16:36 Yeah, you're pretty much describing me. Before I even realized I was bi, I was already a perfect storm of bisexual stereotypes. Can't sit in a chair right, three beverages at once, flannel, clear phone case, excessive fondness for lemon bars, finger guns, walk faster than everybody around me... I had friends laughing behind my back because of it and I was oblivious. Then I figured out I'm bi and discovered I'm cartoonishly stereotypical.
Didn’t realize I was such a bi stereotype I can’t sit in a chair right, at least two beverages at once, clear phone case, lemon desserts and just anything lemon, finger guns, and I walk so much faster than the rest of my family
ya they tried to make that such bands were Satanists.. and dee schooled them HARD.. it was awesome :). smh he's Christian, and they say ozzy is a Satanist.. smh he's catholic and his house is filled w crosses, his kids went to catholic school.
the LGBTQ numbers going up also goes into the change in definitions. For 1946 you were either gay or straight, being bi was a thing, but if you were attracted to someone of the opposite gender you would wind up in a cis-het relationship and would cheat on your partner with someone of the same gender and your partner would either ignore it (if you were a man) or make it so you weren't around "those people" anymore if they found out. same going up to the mid/late 80s. and the whole "room mates"/"man's man" thing
Not to sound morbid but the same thing happened with cancer. People used to be so scared of it they'd lie on death certificates and medical records because their kids wouldn't get married/be ostracized, etc. Once it became accepted numbers went up so much that people thought occurrences were going up way more than they actually were
I think it'd be good if there were an LGBT agenda. Then perhaps our lives would be organised better! 1:27 Good question. Does bilingual mean twice a tongue or once every other tongue? 2:24 Monarch.
Having been on the organization team of my cities pride parade, the actual gay (LGBTQ) agenda involves a lot of creating task forces to figure out basic planning stuff, like getting permits for music, or getting a shuttle for people with impaired mobility, and a sign language translator for the deaf. And of course a lot of meetings to figure out what we need the other meetings to be about. I think weve had multiple meetings, and a taskforce to develop a proposal for the main meeting, just about the ethics of sponsors and what our criterias for one should be. Sovereign also works great as a gender neutral term, and kinda sound dope
I mean, the word agenda literally means “a list of items to be discussed at a formal meeting,” so I think it’d be a good idea for everyone to actually help make an agenda for everyone in the LGBTQIA+ community. Although I don’t know if we should have agendas similar to the aces
Woah I did not expect you to speak in French and pronounce the words correctly!!!! That was super cool!! Great video as always, lots of love from Canada!
I think I figured out the "Top or Bottom" sheets. It's a solution to that annoying problem you described, when you are changing the sheets and you accidentally put the sheet on sideways. The text shows the ends, which are either top or bottom - not the sides. They could have just written switch instead, but that might be confusing in this context...😂
That tag is especially helpful for an American king size bed, which is 76” x 80” (193cm x 203cm), making it really hard to tell which is the long side of the fitted sheet until you have it on wrong.
This reminds me of a fact I read, the person who played Jean Luc Picard almost didn't get the role, because one of the directors thought that baldness would be cured that far into the future. But he mentioned that far far into the future, baldness wouldn't matter.
He is supposed to be a master seducer. He'd be foolish to restrict his skills and experience to one gender. Also, yeah, Lucifer's actor is bi and suitably hot for being the dark prince. I'm straight but just look at the man.
Jamie, I don’t know how often you hear this, but you are KILLING IT as a guy. I honestly couldn’t tell you were trans, so you’re definitely doing an awesome job at passing!
21:29 As far as sheets go, in the US at least, the top and bottom sides of a queen size sheet are shorter than the sides, but the elastic on a fitted sheet makes it hard to differentiate the long sides from the short sides. This tag just means that side can go at the head or foot of the bed aka, it's the shorter side of the sheet.
Gender neutral terms are monarch and ruler!!! I literally asked my fellow NB friend if there was a gender-neutral term for king and they just went silent for a few seconds and went "... you mean a monarch???"
I am a 53 year old bisexual male.. I am monogamous, and have been married twice… I am attracted multiple genders, yet in a relationship I only prefer my partner. I try to explain monogamous bisexuality as the same as heterosexual couples… just because one finds a partner, the rest of the males/ females do not automatically become ‘unattractive’ Just because I’m Bi, doesn’t mean I need to be with both🏳️🌈🥰🏳️🌈. Regardless of my partners gender, when I leave this world I will have ALWAYS been a bisexual man.
Thank you so much for releasing a positive LGBT+ memes video today, Jamie! It is my birthday today and on top of that I recently came out as a trans woman, so I am in a whirlwind of emotions right now and was in desperate need of a pick-me-up. So once again, thank you for making and releasing this funny video today. I really do appreciate it. Sincerely, Rachael
Congrats on your coming out! Shit can get real for sure, but you will get through it. I personally have faith in you, wherever you are. Take care of yourself; you only have one you. And happy B-Day!
I am not diagnosed or undiagnosed with depression, but a secret third thing(peer reviewed) On a different note, coming out to even one person is scary lol
Just wanted to say thank you as somebody who recently came out to their parents as trans advice you have casually given over the years has really helped me out.
18:50 that's a very weird choice for the borders of Gen Z and Gen Alpha. The more accepted one would be around 1997-2012. Most people described to be Gen Z would not fall under that specific definition provided on this image (and Gen Z would be weirdly short.) Edit: oh wait, it's just Gen Z adults. Kind of misleadingly written. This is the second time I've made this exact mistake with this exact image.
In reference to the video: the teacher who co leads our GSA club has a GIANT dinosaur statue holding a pride flag in the center of her class room She's tiny and very eccentric and everyone loves her lmfao 🤣 :]
I just dyed my hair pink, too! Well, I died all of it blue, but the very front and my temples didn’t take the blue, so I made them pink. So, my hair is blue, with pink highlights. Also, wanted to point out that most of the people who died during the height of AIDS were gen X. Also, I think a lot of millennials are realizing that they’re LGBTQ+ all the time. Just saying, I’m about to turn 40, and I didn’t realize that I was trans until like 6 years ago.
As an asexual, I can confidently say that our agenda consists of conquering Denmark, celebrating with cake and garlic bread, taking over the rest of the world, then celebrating again with more cake and garlic bread. We just want to create a better future for all of humanity 🥺 everyone should be able to eat cake for every meal…. By the way, every day of the year will honor a different type of cake (but the whole month of April will also celebrate garlic bread) Also Jamie just so you know Gen Z is 1997-2009 (Gen Alpha is after). It said 97-03 because Gen Zers born after 2003 weren’t included in the study.
I realised I was bi when I got my first crush on a member ofvthe opposite gender and thought this was the same thing I've already experienced. I didn't have the word for it at the time, but I sure knew how I felt. Discovering the term Pan later and deciding that it was less accurate for me personally was a much more involved process.
I knew I was Bi (just didn’t know the term) when I was 7. It was a day when I noticed the ‘cute girls’ being followed around by their ‘cute Boyfriends’. Seriously, it’s always been a part of me, but one I couldn’t openly declare until last year.
10:28 I'm pretty sure that's actually the lithromantic flag, since the Bear Brotherhood flag has a pawprint on it & this one doesn't Lithromantic: feeling romantic love towards someone but having no desire of having these feelings reciprocated
Dee Snyder also appeared before Congress in full drag to explain that music didn't make kids violent. Then the gov't put the Parental Advisory sticker on the records/tapes/cds. As predicted, it just made kids want them more. And record store employees don't card.
@@jooleebillyI think one rap group made their whole album cover like a big ol’ Parental Advisory sticker - basically advertising it and giving moral guardians a middle finger.
Honestly I hope when it gets over 60% that people finally just let it go and let people be who they are. And we end up in a place where people don't have to come out or say anything about being gay, it's just accepted. Like in The 100 but without the apocalypses part XD Where someone's like "We have to check out the crash site, his boyfriend was on that ship" and no one bats an eye. Or when Clark tells her mom she's upset because she was in love with Lexa, and her mom's is just like "I know it hurts baby" because any relationship is valid. That's the kind of social structure I hope LGBT+ people can look forward too
I'm no 40 & haven't come out to any family or friends. I feel like it would be super weird for me to go almost half my lifespan and not say anything. But, I'm also still working it all out for myself and finding where I actually stand. Sadly, my psychiatrist of almost 11 years is a *huge* bigot! I'm mean a straight cis right wing catholic bigot! When I tried to bring up the topic, he became transphobic, a bit homophobic also dismissive of gender identity and segguality. So that "safe space" went to 💩 real quick. Not too sure how I'm going to do this and still working it all out for me. But just know, you don't have to be a specific age to come out. You do you and do it when you're ready. I think telling my family would be the weirdest. Hugs to all the older millennials and gen x who are still "working it all out". As well as everybody else on that journey. ❤❤
As a trans guy who came out at 45 I can confirm that it gets a bit weird. But let's face it, with some people there is no "appropriate age." I came out as bi to my mom when I was 20 and she didn't believe me. 15 years later she actually said to me, "You can't be bisexual if you've never had sex with a woman!" I didn't get into the obvious fallacy but instead responded, " What makes you think I haven't had sex with women?" Now that I'm a guy I have no idea how she processes that. But I've come out twice, young and old, and neither was super fun with my family. Sorry about your therapist. Good luck on finding a new one who is validating and with everything else.
@CorwinFound that's intense. I'm sorry your mum was/is like that. Sadly, I have seen this Dr 11 years, and he's attached to a very specific hospital that I need access to. So I actually can't just change Dr's all of a sudden. I'm not actually sure what to do. My dad helps me to pay for said Dr as psychiatry costs a lot in Australia, sadly. Also, I'm not too sure if my dad would be willing to assist in payments if I eventually made the shift. This Dr, on every other mental health aspect, is very, very good. 1 of the top in their field in the country. It's unfortunately when things are LGBTQIA plus related that they're weird about it all. I'm seeking options but at this stage I have to stay with them. I'm seeing them in the next hour and half funnily enough. I think I'd like some professional guidance in working out who I am and how I identify and then also have said guidance on "coming out" as a more mature person, as it's never easy anyway, but when you're older and your family think they know you, well.... Thanks for the comment and all the best to you.
I'm 41 and feel this on a very personal level. It feels so damn weird going half of your life not knowing exactly who you are. Then when you come out, you feel rather sad and bitter that you spent your young years not being the real you. I knew I wasn't straight when I had my first crush on a woman at 21. Realized I was nonbinary/agender at 29, but didn't fully embrace it till early last year. THEN realizing I'm on the ace spectrum within the same time frame was a lot to process. Still is, honestly. I haven't come out to my mom and sister yet. I'm wary of it, even though I'm sure they'll be somewhat accepting. When my sister and I were young, my mom sat us down and told us she'd support us if we were gay. Her reaction when I got my first girlfriend was... distant and silent. She was supportive in her own weird way, but not very accepting. Hypocrisy. Her behavior during that time is making me hesitate coming out to her. Feels weird as a middle aged person to be scared of your family's approval, but in my case, lots of trauma play into that. Anyway, please find a new therapist. The one you have now is making things worse for you, which is the opposite of how a therapist is supposed to make you feel. People like that shouldn't be therapists. I've actually made it a hard rule for myself that I would only see therapists that are queer friendly, which isn't difficult since I live in California. There are therapists that don't know how to handle non-cis people, though. They can handle various sexual orientations, but not gender identities. We're getting better as a society when it comes to these things, but we still have a way to go. You're not alone. 💜🌈
I just turned 40. It took me until just a few years ago to figure out I'm asexual. Did not take me long to come out since all my friends and family are either part of the LGBT+ community or Allies. They were pretty clueless about asexuals except for my friend who around the same time came out as biromantic demisexual and my sister who came out to me as biromantic gray-sexual when I came out to her as ace.
I'm 42 and only last year started coming out to people as bisexual. I started to realize it in my late 30s and accepted it for myself at 40. I'm only out to my co-workers and a few friends though. I haven't told any family yet because of some openly homophobic relatives.
i remember learning french on duolingo when i was a 12 year old closeted lesbian and every time there was a gay couple on one of the questions i would screenshot it 😭
Me: *has spoken English whole life* Also Me: *can talk REALLY FLIPPIN' FAST and actually make literate sounds* Also Me again: can't read well out loud without stammering and "How do I spell eneglesh?"
The Top or Bottom thing indicates the short side so you don't have to try and figure out which is the short side vs long side on a fitted sheet when putting it on a bed. Is weird wording, but very useful.
My mom found the lgbt burger and she found it adorable so I said “mom…I have to tell you something important I’m guacamole and tomato” and she looked me in the eyes and said “tomato’s are gross”
"Im a tomato!" is my fave meme honestly; that person from some anime i dont know the name of is dressed in a tomato outfit and says it. Every time the LGBT sandwich comes up, i always think "Im a tomato!" in that voice even xD
21:26 the top or bottom tag is very helpful with beds/sheets that are almost square but not quite. It could instead say "head or foot" of the bed if that is more clear.
As a French, I want you to film an entire video in french. I can’t with your accent, it’s the cutest ! Also, props to you for putting up with our impossible language❤
Hey! You reading this! Hope you are all doing well! Remember to be kind to yourself! You are gonna be with you til the end, so make sure you are looking out for yourself. I believe in all of you. 🦕🏳️⚧️🏳️🌈🦖
I love the "gay agenda" stereotype... I've literally been working on a video game about it for over a year lol 😂❤ Was that elliot picture from stardew valley ? Bloody hell , congrats on your 1000+ day streak o.o I'm learning Spanish and am on a streak of 423 as of today :) I found out I was bi the long way round lol. I came out as bi , then a lesbian, then straight (coz I came out as ftm), then figured I was ace.. then discovered Demisexuality which fit me to a t so I started identifying as a straight demisexual... and then elliot page came out and I was like "ooooo I guess I was demi Bi the whole time, just a bi guy not a bi gal" 😂 Now i use Demisexual/Bisexual and I've never felt more comfortable within myself 😊
18:28 The Silent Generation is 1926-1945. They are between the Greatest Generation, who fought in WW2, and the Boomers. They were all too young to fight in the war, but just a bit too old for the Beatles, except for the youngest -cf. My comment on Boomers and Twisted Sister😂🎶🌈
The top or bottom tag indicates the short end of the fitted sheet. there will often also be labels on the sides so you can easily orient the sheet and align the corners
Legit, growing up, I had 0 idea straight people existed. Or gay people. I just assumed everyone was like me. I was bisexual and assumed everyone else was bisexual. I did not know the term bisexual until I was older. The video games I played allowed me to date either gender so nothing ever occurred in my life to indicate that it wasn't the norm.
10:50 OH MY GOD THAT GAVE ME A HEART ATTACK SOB I AM GENDERFLUID AND ONLINE I USE "ELLIOTT" (YES EVEN WITH TWO T'S) AS MY CHOSEN NAME I HAD THIS ON BACKGROUND AND DUDE THAT CAUGHT ME SO OFF GUARD I THOUGHT FOR A SPLIT SECOND HAMIE WAS TALKING TO ME AND NO ONE HAS EVER REFERED TO ME AS ELLIOTT IN VOICE SO I AM RLLY EMOTIONAL NOW WOW THIS IS THE REAL TRANS AGENDA JAMIE TRIES: MAKING ME FEEL HAPPY
I realized I was bi when I was 9, my grandma was explaining to me that gay ppl exist and then she asked what I was i just answered straight because I thought straight = normal, me = normal, me = straight, immediately my brain went like a buzzer "wrong answer", and alright I guess I'm not, I came out like 3 years later
In duolingo I learned the Japanese phrase "Niisan no otto wa Canadajin des." My (older) brother's husband is Canadian. Silent Generation is before Boomers. We Gen X are also sometimes called the forgotten generation.

I just wanted to say thank you for everything you do. ❤ i haven't come out as bisexual yet and i have really bad anxiety over it. I have a supportive family but im still scared to say it.

Many of us who are Gen-X in the US lived through the AIDS epidemic in the 80's, which primarily affected men. It was a terrifying time for many LGBTQ+ people. When people (mostly men) were in the hospitals, the staff would ignore and avoid those patients and let them suffer by neglecting them, as they thought whatever they had was contagious. They suffered terribly and most died. Once they figured out it was AIDS, it took a while to determine how it was spread. Because of this, it brought on a LOT of stigma, fear and even more discrimination than before. Many people stayed silent and stayed in the closet even longer or never came out.

21:00 A lot of Gay Baby Boomers came out in the 1970s.
Most of them were dead, dying, or hiding away with survivor's guilt by the time we Gay Gen-Xers started coming out, so we came out alone _and angry._ Because not only had almost all of our mentors died, they died slowly and horribly while the straights watched on with glee.
My moms had to deal with that, too. I'm so sorry you had to cope with that tragic loss of community, it breaks my heart.
@@Cinnamon_Cleric Thanks, but I actually consider myself lucky, as I didn't lost any friends.
Still, I met so many gay men _and lesbians_ a decade older than me who had… The 1980s were a horrible time. The only people who cared were the lesbians, which is why the 'L' comes first on the acronym - to honor all of those Sisters who were out on the front lines during the worst of the AIDS crisis.
@@John_Weiss I get what you're saying. My stepmom lost people and she doesn't talk about it often, but when she does you can see how heartbroken it left her. I think that in the climate we're currently in, it's vital to talk about this history and know that as a community, we need to have each other's backs.
@@Cinnamon_Cleric Also, _get her to talk about it!_ That not only honors the memory of her lost friends, it gets out the truth of Just. How. Badly. all of those dying gay men were _mistreated._
There's a project called the "Memory of Mankind" that is storing information on ceramic slates in a salt mine in the Alps. Anyone can submit something. I think firsthand stories of the AIDS crisis would be eagerly accepted by the people running the project.
Not only that, in the US, the AIDS epidemic was going on in the 80's which made it even worse for LGTBQ+ people, although it affected primarily gay men. Men (mostly) in hospitals were ignored and neglected by hospital staff because they thought whatever the men had was contagious. Then when it was figured out it was AIDS, it took a while to determine how it was spread. Those poor people had suffered greatly. Even if it wasn't them, many watched their loves ones suffer.
I'm so sorry for everyone who has gone through these things, it was a heartbreaking time.

Gender neutral royalty terms off the top of my head:
Ruler, Monarch, Heir
Heir? That just means "the one who inherits" basically. You can be an heir to a business, title, property or fortune.
Bi-weekly should mean twice a week. We already have a word meaning "every two weeks" - "fortnight". So anything happening once every two weeks should be "fortnightly"
Thus, bisexual means "twice a sexual". "Once every two sexuals" would be "Fortsexual"
The fort- in fortnight comes from fourteen, though 😮
Yeah cause 14 days in two weeks/half a month/half the moon cycle@@erraticonteuse
Fortsexual sounds way cooler, that's not fair... 😢
@@spiker.ortmannno because if you think about it means “attracted to 14yo”☠️
@@ErrroNotFound404 you are thinking it the wrong way, just as pansexuals and their "love for pans" fortsexual can be "love for forts" or "a fort for sexuals" and being the Fort Knox of sexuality sounds pretty badass...
I'm non-binary and I've always liked monarch as a gender neutral replacement for king/queen. Also, the Silent Generation was the one before Baby Boomers and the one after Gen Z is Gen Alpha. Btw, thank you for acknowledging us Gen Xers.
Greetings, fellow Gen Xer!
agreed.
(i refuse to be gen alpha)
@gallitheenbyfox Too late
@@gallitheenbyfox If it makes you feel any better, Gens Z and Alpha are only named what they are because of the mistaken idea that the X in Gen X is alphabetical. However, it’s a variable. They didn’t know what to call us, so the X functions like it would in an algebra equation. And since Gen Y never stuck for Millennials, it wouldn’t make sense to skip a variable. If the people who name generations wanted to be uncreative again and use a variable, it should have been Y and Alpha just doesn’t work at all by that logic. Neither name makes sense.
I've always liked lord (the word not god lol)

Woo! Tengo una racha de 260 días! Had to google streak though. And yeah I notice a lot of esposo/novio from masc speakers and esposa/novia from femme speakers. Haven’t really noticed any gender neutral terms, but there may not be an agreed upon standard yet ^_^
@@Nortarachanges In Spanish for gender neutral we usually go for the ending with -e, like amigue, instead of amigo or amiga. For married people cónyuge (spouse) would be the right word, pareja (partner) is also gender neutral. I'm in 768 days in a row for English :)
@@Nortarachanges You know, I actually recall a PS5 game, Spider-Man 2, introducing a few gender neutral terms in its Spanish script. For example, a nonbinary doctor used the pronoun "they" in English, and was referred to as "Doctore" in Spanish, as opposed to "doctor" or "doctora". Some Spanish streamers online seemed to balk at the inclusion, though, so maybe it's not catching on in more media yet. But on the bright side, it's just "yet," not never.
Straight or gay, do your lesson and you'll see your family today!
I just reached 421 days of learning Japanese on Duolingo today. Still a long way to go to reach the thousand-day mark and more. I have yet to come across any LGBTQ+ content on there though. Hopefully I'll see it eventually. It is nice to know that Duolingo is that inclusive.
As a gen z who now identifies as bi (this has been a rather recent development for me), I can absolutely say that without society being as open and accepting as it is today I never would have questioned my sexuality or had the courage to identify as anything other than straight. I prolly could've gone my entire life just thinking I was attracted to men and kinda ignoring any attraction I had to women, or writing it off as "I just want to look like that" or something. Anyways, I'm glad for how far we've come even tho we have a lot more ground to cover
As a millennial that identifies as ace and transmasc, my path was the opposite. I realized my attraction was actually me just wishing I looked like that. 😅
The nonbinary equivalent for king/queen is "themperor".
This is incredible and I love it.
gonna get this comment stitched in gold and framed ty
Regent!
But emporer is masc, empress is fem. Monarch is truly neutral, as is regent, though regent is often the person temporarily ruling on behalf of an heir who is too young to take power yet.
Thempress ?
I'm a couple of days late seeing this vid, but Jamie talking about God and creating all the LGBTQ+'s reminded me of the meme about " if God hates the gays, why are we so cute?"
23:22 - I think the 'Agender Blender' says "no gender? No problem".
EDIT: Also I think what is happening with the explosion of people identifying as non-straight, is that a lot more "edge cases" are choosing to identify as LGBTQ+ compared to prior generations. For example, my mother (Gen X) identifies as a cis-het woman, but she has always had moods when she feels more masculine, meaning that by strict definitions, she would be genderfluid. My friend's father (Boomer) identified as a straight man, but he engaged in physical relationships with other men and all of his friends were gay men. My step mother (Gen X) also had physical relationships with other women. These are all individuals who because of the time they were raised in, identified as cis-het. To my knowledge, none of them were "closeted"- in the sense that they weren't publicly identifying as straight to protect themselves, they just didn't think too deeply about it all and were comfortable enough with societal expectations. If they were Gen Z, maybe they would have all identified as queer.
The Silent Generation is before the boomers. They are called that because a huge chunk of them died in world war 2. Not sure if this is a separate generation from the Traditionalists or not? It could be an over-lapping generation thing, like how some Millenials' parents are Boomers and some are Gen X. Maybe some Boomer's parents are Silent Generation and some are Traditionalists?
Anyway, Gen X doesn't have another name, as far as I know, but they were the ones who were coming of age in the 80s. The generation after Gen Z is currently being called Gen Alpha, but I feel like sometimes it takes awhile for a generation name to really stick.
Yes, gen X had it very difficult to come out. I’m fringe /late gen X and when the AIDS epidemic hit I was a young child. Bi men had it really bad at that time.
I know that for a while Gen Z used to be called iGen because we were born in the period of smartphones, but eventually Z won out.
My mother's first crush was on a woman, and I didn't know that until I was 19 years old. She just never found it important to mention, but it was a little mind-blowing to me. I think she might be one of those edge cases you described.
The Silent Generation (for the U.S.) is my parent's generation, 1928-1945 (Mom in '28, Dad in '31). So, Great Depression through World War II births. At least for the U.S. (where I am) they weren't much involved in the war, as they were too young for service (though my mom did have some returning soldiers finish high school with her). Apparently they are the same as the Traditionalists, though I don't know that I'd ever heard of that. At least part of the silence was there weren't that many of them to begin with, since the depression and then the war were dampers on reproduction (which is part of what made the Baby Boom such a big deal), and then moving into the 50s (their young adulthood and teens) it was a pretty good to time to remain silent (unless you really were traditionalist, and that doesn't really set you apart from the preceding generation, so who'd notice). I mean, compared to the pre-war leftist movements and the counterculture of the sixties, they really were pretty quiet.
I've always felt kind of out of place, being solidly demographically Gen X (1970), but the child of Silent Generation parents, all of whose other children were Baby Boomers (and all on their own with children by the time I was 5), and then having my own child in 2005 (Gen Z). So I wasn't raised by people who had the same generational background or assumption as my folks, nor was my kid in comparison to their peers.
Gen X were also called latchkey kids because many families had both parents working late so kids would let themselves into the house with a key hanging on the latch after playing outside after school.

ya they tried to make that such bands were Satanists.. and dee schooled them HARD.. it was awesome :). smh he's Christian, and they say ozzy is a Satanist.. smh he's catholic and his house is filled w crosses, his kids went to catholic school.
the LGBTQ numbers going up also goes into the change in definitions. For 1946 you were either gay or straight, being bi was a thing, but if you were attracted to someone of the opposite gender you would wind up in a cis-het relationship and would cheat on your partner with someone of the same gender and your partner would either ignore it (if you were a man) or make it so you weren't around "those people" anymore if they found out. same going up to the mid/late 80s. and the whole "room mates"/"man's man" thing
That whole trope of "elderly bachelors who live together because they never found wives" lol
Not to sound morbid but the same thing happened with cancer. People used to be so scared of it they'd lie on death certificates and medical records because their kids wouldn't get married/be ostracized, etc. Once it became accepted numbers went up so much that people thought occurrences were going up way more than they actually were
Monarch is the gender neutral term for king/queen :)

@@deethwarrior really? I thought Lord was a term for men somewhere below the king. Like Lord and Lady.

1:27 Good question. Does bilingual mean twice a tongue or once every other tongue?
2:24 Monarch.
Is it 2 languages twice the time or 2 languages twice in life?
Having been on the organization team of my cities pride parade, the actual gay (LGBTQ) agenda involves a lot of creating task forces to figure out basic planning stuff, like getting permits for music, or getting a shuttle for people with impaired mobility, and a sign language translator for the deaf. And of course a lot of meetings to figure out what we need the other meetings to be about. I think weve had multiple meetings, and a taskforce to develop a proposal for the main meeting, just about the ethics of sponsors and what our criterias for one should be.
Sovereign also works great as a gender neutral term, and kinda sound dope
I mean, the word agenda literally means “a list of items to be discussed at a formal meeting,” so I think it’d be a good idea for everyone to actually help make an agenda for everyone in the LGBTQIA+ community. Although I don’t know if we should have agendas similar to the aces
Gay agenda:
Wake up
Be gay
Sleep (optional)
Trans agenda:
Wake up
Be trans
Sleep (still optional)

Woah I did not expect you to speak in French and pronounce the words correctly!!!! That was super cool!! Great video as always, lots of love from Canada!
I think I figured out the "Top or Bottom" sheets. It's a solution to that annoying problem you described, when you are changing the sheets and you accidentally put the sheet on sideways. The text shows the ends, which are either top or bottom - not the sides. They could have just written switch instead, but that might be confusing in this context...😂
That tag is especially helpful for an American king size bed, which is 76” x 80” (193cm x 203cm), making it really hard to tell which is the long side of the fitted sheet until you have it on wrong.
I hope one day that no one needs to "come out" and everyone just loves who they love and no one cares.
This reminds me of a fact I read, the person who played Jean Luc Picard almost didn't get the role, because one of the directors thought that baldness would be cured that far into the future. But he mentioned that far far into the future, baldness wouldn't matter.

If they don't want us going to hell then Why'd they put all the good representation down there?
The devil is a bi legend!
Jamie, I don’t know how often you hear this, but you are KILLING IT as a guy. I honestly couldn’t tell you were trans, so you’re definitely doing an awesome job at passing!
21:29 As far as sheets go, in the US at least, the top and bottom sides of a queen size sheet are shorter than the sides, but the elastic on a fitted sheet makes it hard to differentiate the long sides from the short sides. This tag just means that side can go at the head or foot of the bed aka, it's the shorter side of the sheet.
Gender neutral terms are monarch and ruler!!! I literally asked my fellow NB friend if there was a gender-neutral term for king and they just went silent for a few seconds and went "... you mean a monarch???"
Or you could use lord i like using lord cus monarch is too long
Jamie is married, monogamous, has a PhD and discovered his sexuality by "thinking about it". Truly a legend
That really is how it do be sometimes.
It’s what I aspire to be
She is a grifter who tries to promote unfounded ideological ideas to susceptible lonely and vulnerable young people and should be banned.
But can't remember the word "monarch" exists. :-)
what does monogamy have to do with it?
My non-binary ass yelling at Jamie "Majesty! MAJESTY!" 😂
Yes, and we you address them you say “your majesty”
Yes 🙌
24:33 omg I love this (I am currently obsessed with TMNT) I suppose maybe also binja turtle but there is no A
I am a 53 year old bisexual male.. I am monogamous, and have been married twice…
I am attracted multiple genders, yet in a relationship I only prefer my partner.
I try to explain monogamous bisexuality as the same as heterosexual couples… just because one finds a partner, the rest of the males/ females do not automatically become ‘unattractive’
Just because I’m Bi, doesn’t mean I need to be with both🏳️🌈🥰🏳️🌈.
Regardless of my partners gender, when I leave this world I will have ALWAYS been a bisexual man.
As an asexual my agenda is to find the finest garlic bread in world
As a pansexual, I will support you. Our goals are in fact the same.
As a bisexual, I’m searching for the best lemon bars. But i love a nice slice of garlic bread, we should exchange recipes once our quests are over.
@@300DBenz Hmm yes, indeed we should, and we shall. I raise a toast to your quest, happy lemonbar hunting
i am so confused what is the joke with garlic bread
@@lemmonaade So am I, but just like my garlic bread too much to care.
Thank you so much for releasing a positive LGBT+ memes video today, Jamie! It is my birthday today and on top of that I recently came out as a trans woman, so I am in a whirlwind of emotions right now and was in desperate need of a pick-me-up.
So once again, thank you for making and releasing this funny video today. I really do appreciate it.
Sincerely,
Rachael
Congrats on your coming out! Shit can get real for sure, but you will get through it. I personally have faith in you, wherever you are. Take care of yourself; you only have one you. And happy B-Day!
Happy birthday Rachael!
Happy birthday Rachael!
Happy birthday 🎂 and congratulations for coming out. Hope you have an amazing day 🤗
Happy birthday Rachael and congrats for coming out!
I am not diagnosed or undiagnosed with depression, but a secret third thing(peer reviewed)
On a different note, coming out to even one person is scary lol
As a bisexual, I had a crush on my girl and guy best friends at once. Literally the worst time of my life because they also liked each other 😭
Oh nooo 😩
Just wanted to say thank you as somebody who recently came out to their parents as trans advice you have casually given over the years has really helped me out.
18:50 that's a very weird choice for the borders of Gen Z and Gen Alpha. The more accepted one would be around 1997-2012. Most people described to be Gen Z would not fall under that specific definition provided on this image (and Gen Z would be weirdly short.)
Edit: oh wait, it's just Gen Z adults. Kind of misleadingly written. This is the second time I've made this exact mistake with this exact image.
oh, thanks for clarifying, I was super confused cause I was born in 2006 and I always knew I was Gen Z
thanks for this, i was really confused and had no idea it was about adults only 😭
It’s more like 1997-2010
In reference to the video: the teacher who co leads our GSA club has a GIANT dinosaur statue holding a pride flag in the center of her class room
She's tiny and very eccentric and everyone loves her lmfao 🤣 :]
I just dyed my hair pink, too! Well, I died all of it blue, but the very front and my temples didn’t take the blue, so I made them pink. So, my hair is blue, with pink highlights.
Also, wanted to point out that most of the people who died during the height of AIDS were gen X. Also, I think a lot of millennials are realizing that they’re LGBTQ+ all the time. Just saying, I’m about to turn 40, and I didn’t realize that I was trans until like 6 years ago.
As an asexual, I can confidently say that our agenda consists of conquering Denmark, celebrating with cake and garlic bread, taking over the rest of the world, then celebrating again with more cake and garlic bread. We just want to create a better future for all of humanity 🥺 everyone should be able to eat cake for every meal…. By the way, every day of the year will honor a different type of cake (but the whole month of April will also celebrate garlic bread)
Also Jamie just so you know Gen Z is 1997-2009 (Gen Alpha is after). It said 97-03 because Gen Zers born after 2003 weren’t included in the study.
When you're closeted, these videos are your savior. Since I'm a closeted trans, it makes me really happy every time one of the memes is trans lol.
I realised I was bi when I got my first crush on a member ofvthe opposite gender and thought this was the same thing I've already experienced. I didn't have the word for it at the time, but I sure knew how I felt. Discovering the term Pan later and deciding that it was less accurate for me personally was a much more involved process.
I knew I was Bi (just didn’t know the term) when I was 7. It was a day when I noticed the ‘cute girls’ being followed around by their ‘cute Boyfriends’. Seriously, it’s always been a part of me, but one I couldn’t openly declare until last year.
@@popechuckyI hear you fellow bi, I was the same and came out last year too... 👍👍
10:28 I'm pretty sure that's actually the lithromantic flag, since the Bear Brotherhood flag has a pawprint on it & this one doesn't
Lithromantic: feeling romantic love towards someone but having no desire of having these feelings reciprocated
So is this kinda like willingly having a crush without the wish of it to turn into anything?
Twisted sister were the most metal drag queens you ever saw, I love them so much my dad and my friends parents used to listen to them
Dee Snyder also appeared before Congress in full drag to explain that music didn't make kids violent. Then the gov't put the Parental Advisory sticker on the records/tapes/cds. As predicted, it just made kids want them more. And record store employees don't card.
Huge fan ❤
@@jooleebilly I love that too, he’s to thank for explicit music
@@jooleebillyI think one rap group made their whole album cover like a big ol’ Parental Advisory sticker - basically advertising it and giving moral guardians a middle finger.
yet dee snider is as of now a very vocal transphobe, as are many other artists who were popular for transgressive on stage personas
the face of genuine surprise you made at 16:20 got me good, so funny
21:38 that’s exactly why - the short parts are top & bottom so that tag needs to go in one of the upper right or lower left corners
Honestly I hope when it gets over 60% that people finally just let it go and let people be who they are. And we end up in a place where people don't have to come out or say anything about being gay, it's just accepted. Like in The 100 but without the apocalypses part XD Where someone's like "We have to check out the crash site, his boyfriend was on that ship" and no one bats an eye. Or when Clark tells her mom she's upset because she was in love with Lexa, and her mom's is just like "I know it hurts baby" because any relationship is valid. That's the kind of social structure I hope LGBT+ people can look forward too
I'm no 40 & haven't come out to any family or friends.
I feel like it would be super weird for me to go almost half my lifespan and not say anything.
But, I'm also still working it all out for myself and finding where I actually stand.
Sadly, my psychiatrist of almost 11 years is a *huge* bigot! I'm mean a straight cis right wing catholic bigot!
When I tried to bring up the topic, he became transphobic, a bit homophobic also dismissive of gender identity and segguality.
So that "safe space" went to 💩 real quick.
Not too sure how I'm going to do this and still working it all out for me. But just know, you don't have to be a specific age to come out.
You do you and do it when you're ready.
I think telling my family would be the weirdest.
Hugs to all the older millennials and gen x who are still "working it all out".
As well as everybody else on that journey. ❤❤
As a trans guy who came out at 45 I can confirm that it gets a bit weird. But let's face it, with some people there is no "appropriate age." I came out as bi to my mom when I was 20 and she didn't believe me. 15 years later she actually said to me, "You can't be bisexual if you've never had sex with a woman!" I didn't get into the obvious fallacy but instead responded, " What makes you think I haven't had sex with women?"
Now that I'm a guy I have no idea how she processes that. But I've come out twice, young and old, and neither was super fun with my family.
Sorry about your therapist. Good luck on finding a new one who is validating and with everything else.
@CorwinFound that's intense. I'm sorry your mum was/is like that.
Sadly, I have seen this Dr 11 years, and he's attached to a very specific hospital that I need access to. So I actually can't just change Dr's all of a sudden.
I'm not actually sure what to do.
My dad helps me to pay for said Dr as psychiatry costs a lot in Australia, sadly. Also, I'm not too sure if my dad would be willing to assist in payments if I eventually made the shift.
This Dr, on every other mental health aspect, is very, very good. 1 of the top in their field in the country.
It's unfortunately when things are LGBTQIA plus related that they're weird about it all.
I'm seeking options but at this stage I have to stay with them. I'm seeing them in the next hour and half funnily enough.
I think I'd like some professional guidance in working out who I am and how I identify and then also have said guidance on "coming out" as a more mature person, as it's never easy anyway, but when you're older and your family think they know you, well....
Thanks for the comment and all the best to you.
I'm 41 and feel this on a very personal level. It feels so damn weird going half of your life not knowing exactly who you are. Then when you come out, you feel rather sad and bitter that you spent your young years not being the real you. I knew I wasn't straight when I had my first crush on a woman at 21. Realized I was nonbinary/agender at 29, but didn't fully embrace it till early last year. THEN realizing I'm on the ace spectrum within the same time frame was a lot to process. Still is, honestly.
I haven't come out to my mom and sister yet. I'm wary of it, even though I'm sure they'll be somewhat accepting. When my sister and I were young, my mom sat us down and told us she'd support us if we were gay. Her reaction when I got my first girlfriend was... distant and silent. She was supportive in her own weird way, but not very accepting. Hypocrisy. Her behavior during that time is making me hesitate coming out to her. Feels weird as a middle aged person to be scared of your family's approval, but in my case, lots of trauma play into that.
Anyway, please find a new therapist. The one you have now is making things worse for you, which is the opposite of how a therapist is supposed to make you feel. People like that shouldn't be therapists. I've actually made it a hard rule for myself that I would only see therapists that are queer friendly, which isn't difficult since I live in California. There are therapists that don't know how to handle non-cis people, though. They can handle various sexual orientations, but not gender identities. We're getting better as a society when it comes to these things, but we still have a way to go.
You're not alone. 💜🌈
I just turned 40. It took me until just a few years ago to figure out I'm asexual. Did not take me long to come out since all my friends and family are either part of the LGBT+ community or Allies. They were pretty clueless about asexuals except for my friend who around the same time came out as biromantic demisexual and my sister who came out to me as biromantic gray-sexual when I came out to her as ace.
I'm 42 and only last year started coming out to people as bisexual. I started to realize it in my late 30s and accepted it for myself at 40. I'm only out to my co-workers and a few friends though. I haven't told any family yet because of some openly homophobic relatives.
i remember learning french on duolingo when i was a 12 year old closeted lesbian and every time there was a gay couple on one of the questions i would screenshot it 😭
11:22 Did not expect to tear up while watching this video about memes, but this broke my heart 🥺
Me: *has spoken English whole life*
Also Me: *can talk REALLY FLIPPIN' FAST and actually make literate sounds*
Also Me again: can't read well out loud without stammering and "How do I spell eneglesh?"
The word "monarch" is nongendered, but I also like the word "themperor".
I say this as a cisgender guy, though, so you know, you be you.
The Top or Bottom thing indicates the short side so you don't have to try and figure out which is the short side vs long side on a fitted sheet when putting it on a bed. Is weird wording, but very useful.
My mom found the lgbt burger and she found it adorable so I said “mom…I have to tell you something important I’m guacamole and tomato” and she looked me in the eyes and said “tomato’s are gross”
"Im a tomato!" is my fave meme honestly; that person from some anime i dont know the name of is dressed in a tomato outfit and says it.
Every time the LGBT sandwich comes up, i always think "Im a tomato!" in that voice even xD
21:26 the top or bottom tag is very helpful with beds/sheets that are almost square but not quite. It could instead say "head or foot" of the bed if that is more clear.
Yes, Venom (11:58). Iconic, as is his relationship with Eddie
“We don’t have a gay agenda”
Me (I have an agenda that has a gay design): 😬
2:21 I can't believe Jamie forgot the word monarch exists haha!
Mistress -> empress
Mister -> emperor
Mistrum -> emprum
So that’s probably the etymology
17:17 fun nerdy fact: in ancient Greece it was said that when Apollo was drunk he created people with the”wrong” genitalia 🤣
As a French, I want you to film an entire video in french. I can’t with your accent, it’s the cutest ! Also, props to you for putting up with our impossible language❤
Hey! You reading this! Hope you are all doing well! Remember to be kind to yourself! You are gonna be with you til the end, so make sure you are looking out for yourself. I believe in all of you. 🦕🏳️⚧️🏳️🌈🦖
Thank you, the same to you.
I love the "gay agenda" stereotype... I've literally been working on a video game about it for over a year lol 😂❤
Was that elliot picture from stardew valley ?
Bloody hell , congrats on your 1000+ day streak o.o
I'm learning Spanish and am on a streak of 423 as of today :)
I found out I was bi the long way round lol.
I came out as bi , then a lesbian, then straight (coz I came out as ftm), then figured I was ace.. then discovered Demisexuality which fit me to a t so I started identifying as a straight demisexual... and then elliot page came out and I was like "ooooo I guess I was demi Bi the whole time, just a bi guy not a bi gal" 😂
Now i use Demisexual/Bisexual and I've never felt more comfortable within myself 😊
Yes it is stardew valley
@@LordJatz thank you 😂
I thought I recognised the art and font... such a great game 😊
18:28 The Silent Generation is 1926-1945. They are between the Greatest Generation, who fought in WW2, and the Boomers. They were all too young to fight in the war, but just a bit too old for the Beatles, except for the youngest -cf. My comment on Boomers and Twisted Sister😂🎶🌈
This. Also GenX was originally called The Lost Generation, particularly the older end of our generation.
The top or bottom tag indicates the short end of the fitted sheet. there will often also be labels on the sides so you can easily orient the sheet and align the corners
Legit, growing up, I had 0 idea straight people existed. Or gay people. I just assumed everyone was like me. I was bisexual and assumed everyone else was bisexual. I did not know the term bisexual until I was older. The video games I played allowed me to date either gender so nothing ever occurred in my life to indicate that it wasn't the norm.
10:50 OH MY GOD THAT GAVE ME A HEART ATTACK SOB
I AM GENDERFLUID AND ONLINE I USE "ELLIOTT" (YES EVEN WITH TWO T'S) AS MY CHOSEN NAME
I HAD THIS ON BACKGROUND AND DUDE THAT CAUGHT ME SO OFF GUARD
I THOUGHT FOR A SPLIT SECOND HAMIE WAS TALKING TO ME AND NO ONE HAS EVER REFERED TO ME AS ELLIOTT IN VOICE SO I AM RLLY EMOTIONAL NOW WOW THIS IS THE REAL TRANS AGENDA JAMIE TRIES: MAKING ME FEEL HAPPY
The secret trans agenda was finding happiness in your own skin. Who knew?
@@Montesama314 Yay
@@Montesama314oh buddy, it’s no secret. Everyone knows the trans agenda is to feel safe being ourselves and then be happy.
I realized I was bi when I was 9, my grandma was explaining to me that gay ppl exist and then she asked what I was i just answered straight because I thought straight = normal, me = normal, me = straight, immediately my brain went like a buzzer "wrong answer", and alright I guess I'm not, I came out like 3 years later
In duolingo I learned the Japanese phrase "Niisan no otto wa Canadajin des." My (older) brother's husband is Canadian.
Silent Generation is before Boomers. We Gen X are also sometimes called the forgotten generation.
12:19 "buy Balls $750" Yeah, that is cheap. I paid 10 times that to get rid of some
14:41 I am HORRIBLE at French in school but on doulingo I’m learning polish(cuz I have a polish friend and it would be cool to speak to her fluently) and Japanese and with polish I’m ok but I’m AMAZING at japanese
For a while I thought I might be Bi but when I thought about it I was like "actually is there a thing for gender not being a huge factor in whether or not you vibe with someone?" Then I heard the term 'Pansexual' did a little digging and I was like 'Ohhh!! Yes!! This!" Lol
21:16 assuming "top or bottom" is indicating the "short" side of the sheet
I just wanted to say thank you for everything you do. ❤ i haven't come out as bisexual yet and i have really bad anxiety over it. I have a supportive family but im still scared to say it. Your videos have helped me feel comfortable with who I am and just feel like a safe space. Your videos are kinda relaxing in a way, like a way to escape the stress of my life. Thank you for helping me and everyone else in a similar situation 🩷💜💙
Hello, fellow bi bean. There's no hurry to come out. And when you're ready, it'll be fine. Best of luck to you. 💗💜💙

Those top or bottom tags of sheets are actually quite usefully! They're there to help solve the "whoops, put the short side where the long one should go" problem
