2:43 It's nice and good that the father is supportive. But it was not good for him to eavesdrop on what he knew was a private conversation, and it was even cringier for him to write that note. The boy deserved to come out on his own terms.
The woman realizing she's gay at the same time her partner came out as trans is so sweet! I guess maybe even when she thought she was marrying a man, some part of her was attracted to the woman she didn't know she was marrying.
A similar thing happened with my parents. My mom is bisexual and had only dated men before she met her wife. Before said wife came out, my mom was always talking about how my “dad” was so much more sensitive and understanding than any guy she’d dated before, and that there was just something about it that was different. A few years later, they both figured it out and they recently got remarried as two women on their 20th anniversary.
My mom said something, in a bummed tone, about having to take her pride flags down because pride month is over. I said to her, "you know, you can be proud all year long if you want." And she had this look as if that never even occurred to her. They're still up. She's come leaps and bounds and I'm proud of her. Edit: Aw 🥺 I didn't know how much joy this would bring to y'all and it gives me the joy! 🌈
People leave 4th of July decorations up for months, why not do the same with pride? Just today, I drove past a store that had an American flag literally the size of the whole store window. You couldn’t see the inside. I’m not sure how they get around it.
They really cut into their own flesh. It's got the same energy as my ten year old self being pissed off about having to cut an apple, trying to stab the apple, but slipping with the knife and cutting into my finger tip. However, ten year old Raven learned not to stab apples, but I wonder if Alabama will learn not to ban marriage for anybody...
Well I'm aroflux and I don't have a problem getting married because even though I've been dating her for like 4 days I already know I'm gonna marry my girlfriend
I just came out to my brother as gay and non-binary or genderfluid (if that makes any sense). He used to be EXTREMELY Anti-LGBTQIAP+ but he educated himself thoroughly and he is a really good ally now. He says he fully accepts me and I feel so happy.
I stayed in closet for years because I thought my husband would leave me if he knew I was a trans man. I finally came out and he came out as bisexual. Our daughters call us Big Daddy and Little Daddy. We've never been happier.
I’ve been meaning to say this for a while and I might have already I don’t remember. But I just wanted to say when I started watching you I was under the impression I was a cis woman. I started watching you when I was questioning if I liked girls. I remember you talking about people saying how they watched you before they noticed they were trans and I was like “no, couldn’t be me, I’m definitely a girl.” Months later now I identify as trans and use he/they pronouns. Sometimes we surprise ourselves I guess. Edit: thanks for the support and I love reading all your stories in the replies. I just want you to know you’re all valid and you’re not alone
Omg that is wholesome! Similar for me, although I identified as cishet ally, then unlabeled cis woman and now she/they (demigirl) and lesbian/Unlabeled 🥰 You are valid and I love you, don't öet anyone tell you something different 😊
I didn’t understand I was lgbtq+ until I started to get to know people from the community and talk to them about their experiences and noticed that what I had felt since I was a child was something they experienced too. I identify as non binary and bi nowadays and finally understood why I didn’t fit in with the others that easily. Before that I felt like a hetero cis girl that’s just „not like other girls“ 😅
omg i love that so much, congrats for finding yourself!!! similar experience here, after watching a bunch of trans youtubers like jamie i realized my gender dysphoria was totally valid and that just because i look and present feminine doesn’t mean i’m cis. i now know i’m non-binary and i use she/they pronouns 💕
Speaking of wholesome LGBT+ stuff, I remember when I came out as bi to my parents, and they started referring to my theoretical future partners in gender neutral terminology. It was a little thing, but it was really sweet and meant a lot to me.
My mom joined a "free mom hugs" group after my brother & I came out, and asked us to make sure they were a legit group that was appreciated by the LGBT+ community. She was already someone who gave free mom energy to our friends whose parents didn't support them, and I think it's fantastic to see these groups out there doing good work. Knowing there are people out there with extra love when you're lacking it makes so much difference for a lot of people.
@@teryel3493 me too! She's familiar with the LGB part of things since she was part of a majority queer friendgroup as a student, but since one of us is trans and we're both ace, she's done a ton of research and asked a lot of questions to us about the community as a whole so she can be supportive. She's a really great mom and she hasn't always gotten it right but she's gone out of her way to do her best and we're definitely fortunate to have her!
I'm a trans lesbian, too, so I can relate to that. When I came out two years ago, my mom was the first relative I told. She knew for years that I shave my body hair off and had her suspicions about me at least since I was a teenager. When you factor in step-relatives, I told my step-niece before any of the rest knew. "Malika" is gay, too, and we have plenty of common interests so I felt she was safe to tell. She had her suspicions about me being trans or gay. In a way, she was right about both.
The one with the ladies getting married after 50 yrs bought tears to my eyes. I am so grateful that my trans son was not born 50 yrs ago. I love your channel, it gives me hope that he can just live an be happy, which honestly should just be how it is for people. Why gender, sexual orientation or whatever has anything to do with anyone else is beyond me. We just need to be kind and love each other.
I had a talk with my mom yesterday about how just 100 years ago, I would have been locked up and much worse, for being the way I am, and I think she might be starting to understand why I'm making myself so visible now. I'm a gay trans guy from germany... It's not even been 100 years... but there's been so much progress all over the world since then... we still have a long way to go, but it's getting better.
No matter how difficult things get, you're never alone. People you don't even know are rooting for you. Stay hydrated, and take things step by step until you can slowly nudge yourself out of your comfort zone to leap further and complete your goals. I believe in you! Don't beat yourself up over tiny setbacks, you're learning and you're making progress regardless.
Here's a cute couple story for you folx : My gf & I are 2 trans people, she's a trans woman, I'm a trans man and we're both asexual, but when we met neither of us knew about that. We were a "straight" couple as we thought we should be, but I discovered I was ace, shared it with her and she slowly came to realise she was too. Later, she came out as trans then a year later, I came out as trans too. Now we're here, we're queer and still in love after almost 8 years (we'll celebrate the 8th anniversary on December 2021)! ^^
the one with the older lesbian couple made me really teary too, oh noo! we will have the poll in september in switzerland to make same sex marriages legal and there are alot of people voting against it. Let's hope for thebest and don't give up i guess
1:44 I love this so much because imagine that conversation "Honey I have something I need to tell you" "Me too, you go first" "I... Am attracted to women, I'm a lesbian" "You- you are not gonna believe this but it's our lucky day"
The version in my head featured the first one come-out-to absolutely helpless with involuntary, situationally inappropriate relief laughter, because I tend to laugh with relief and the more intense it is, the harder it is to suppress. But never fear! In my head, the hugging and patting and happy crying through the laughter made it clear all was well, so first one to-come-out wasn't in terrible, pained suspense. I'm sure Rachael is right and it was less cinematic, but our versions are cute too! :)
It was probably the best part of the video for me. Sometimes you get wrapped up in the memes and it can feel a little invalidating. And just havin someone remind you that its just jokes and even if you don't relate you're still you is very wholesome and great.
Lmfao I remember when I would keep seeing those comments and be like “lol it’s funny how many people this happens to but it DEFINITELY isn’t me” ._. xD (Love from your local gender fluid/non binary panromantic asexual lol stay safe
"Oh yeah " I I love how normal and mundane that is. Like it gives the same energy of forgetting or not realizing anything else. It really shows how much he accepts the community as normal
Kind of related to that last one, when Ireland had our vote to amend the constitution for same sex marriage. The text read "Marriage may be contracted in accordance with law by two person without distinction as to their sex" (ie, gender of the participants of the marriage is not a factor in the legality of the marriage. However the Irish text (as our constitution exists in both langauge) read "Féadfaidh beirt, cibé acu is fir nó mná iad, conradh a dhéanamh i leith pósadh de réir dlí" translated directly meaning "a couple may, whether they are men or women, make a contract of marriage in accordance with law" which had an interpretation (the 'they' implying plural here due to it referencing couple) necessarily both had to be men OR women. In the same year our government accidentally, for two days, legalised ketamine, ecstasy, crystal meth and magic mushrooms.
Jamie, I just want to say thank you *wipes away a few happy tears* I am a 36 YO bi trans woman. I lost my whole family in my transition, which was a good thing in the end. But I have watched your videos over the years, even before coming out. You for me, have been a beacon of hope and inspiration. Even in my job as an adolescent counselor, working with my baby trans clients. You help myself, as well as the kids I am working with get through the tough stuff. Thank you so much for being you. Esmeralda Xóchitl
I think the most wholesome thing about this video is the comment section, I honestly think Jamie has one of the most lovely supportive community and even if the video is mildly upsetting (some of the topics like looking at far right tik toks or the fight against JKR and how much of a horrible person she is) the comment section will always make me feel loved and supported and needed so, if you're reading this you are loved by someone and even if you don't think it youve made someone happy, simply by existing (:
Jamie, I noticed you trying NOT to cry and I have to say... please don't ever feel ashamed to show your feelings. Men should be able to show their emotional side without feeling shame. You are incredibly brave with your trans and bi journey and we are all so proud of you so let your emotions flow. You got this, you sweet spud 💜🦄
I know this may be a bit off topic, but could someone maybe help me with something? I'm wondering what would be a good alternative to aunt/uncle for someone who identifies as nonbinary or goes by they/them pronouns. I don't have any figures like that in my life and I'm making a character who is nonbinary and has a nephew who is very fond of them. If anyone could help me with this, I would greatly appreciate it! Edit: Thank you all for your help! Another edit: The reason why I don't want to always just use their name is because it's a one-syllable name. I don't know any nicknames that could come from it, but I'll try and come up with some of those too. Also ankle, auncle, and zizi are all really cute. Once again, thank you all for your help!
Hmm… I use they/it/he and I thought abt this type of stuff. Generally I know a lot of people who have thought of “nibling” for nephews/nieces and just siblings who use they/them pronouns (my uncle uses that for me a lot I said they could call me nephew but they don’t want too-) but I think generally, the person who has the nephew would be able too decide if they want to be uncle or auntie? Sometimes I think about when I become an uncle- I’d want to be called uncle because that’s my preference. But it’s very hard to decide- some people like too merge them together but hmm… when you look up on google you’ll see “pibling” standing for parents sibling which I personally think sounds… interesting… but yeah I think most the time I see non-binaries who just identify as “non-binary aunt” or “non-binary uncle” and uh- yeah hope that helps ?? Basically just make it clear that they have decided they are okay too be called aunt or uncle even though they are non-binary and it should be fine I guess ^^
The old lesbian couple getting married made me cry a lot, beause where I live it's still illegal to get married and recently a gay man was burned alive for just living with his bf. I am still young so i hope I get to witness gay/lesbian marriage legal. Have a good day everybody.
as a queer person in a small town, i really appreciate this video and you normalizing these things. my family have always told me they would love me "even if i was gay" which is so much better than what lots of people get from family but it still hurts to know that i'm letting them down in a way. so thank u for reminding me that there are people out there who will love me FOR me, not in spite of me.
8:14 that's the one that made me tear up. When I came out, my dad said he didn't accept me because he had expectations for his son. 11 years later, and he still doesn't accept his daughter. It would've meant the world to hear that message, but I never got it. If your parents accept you, please appreciate them. If they don't accept you, please know that you can still build a new family. I made it through HRT and SRS without the help of my parents, but with the care of my best friend, whom I love like a sister.
I'm so sorry you had to go through life like this because of being yourself. I'm proud of you for sticking to your true self and finding strength in your chosen loved ones. 💖 Hope you're doing ok.
It's sad that even after seeing you go through so much to be true to yourself that they still can't accept you. But that is on them. You've gone on and made a new life for yourself and family you can love and trust. Continue to seel joy and you'll keep finding it.
@@alicecain4851 They cut me off when I changed my name, which was the first thing I did, so they never saw me on HRT, and they will never know about SRS.
My favourite coming out comment.........."Dad, I'm gay". Dad looks at son and says "same rules as your sister, no boys in your bedroom". And, that was it lol
I really resonated with the two women who asked if they were ready, and she said I waited fifty years for this. My mothers in-law were together for 35 years and they finally were able to get married several years ago. I was so happy for them!
Hello! This message is for anyone out there that is struggling with their sexuality/sexual identity. I'm wishing you the best and sending you love from the bottom of my heart. I hope you find your true authentic self and get to be the amazing person you were always meant to be. To a better, free, fair world.
Just know if your parent(s) isn’t/aren’t proud or accepting of who you are, there are lots of people who care about and support you. I was outted as trans by my transphobic sister to my transphobic parents and I know how important it is to have a community who cares about you. Much love. ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜
I needed this video. My dad said something kind of shitty as a “joke” and it kind of hurt (not out to him obviously, and most of the time his comments and jokes don’t bother me, but the one today just struck a nerve for some reason). Thanks Jamie (hope that how your name is spelt haha).
@@allyrose8884 I second this profession of love, validation, and support. May tomorrow bring you kinder interactions, acceptance, understanding, and inclusion!
When I came out as trans, the only thing that changed in my relationship was that I asked my partner if he was ok with putting the wedding off until I was further along in my transition. He agreed even though we've had to put it off twice already because of covid. Love my bisexual fiance!
1:37 I'm bi and mtf trans, and my mum is mostly supportive, but one time we were talking about how many bi people I knew, and, KNOWING THAT I AND SOME OF MY CLOSEST FRIENDS ARE BI, said "I feel like kids that are bi are just doing it as a bit of transition phase to try things out, and will eventually end up being gay or straight".
Random fun fact: r/prequelmemes didnt change the picture back from palpatine with a pride flag to normal palpatine on july 1st (the mods are slow with that there). After a few days of people making memes about it, the mods changed it to palpatine with the pride flag and some sunglasses. Just thought its funny and it kind of fits with wholesome/funny lgbt stuff
I'm queer, enby, and German, so the flags are perfect for me, lol Please, more wholesome videos! It was just the right thing after queerphobes and weird straights 💜
I was literally at my city's local Pride event yesterday (yes I know it's August but it obvs had to be postponed cus of Rona) so I am on a happy high and this has kept me in a good mood
My mom let me pick out a new backpack online for this school year and I picked one that was sort of gradient rainbow. It’s a small victory and I’m a bit worried but I’m hopeful. I go to a catholic school and some people I truly believed in turned out homophobic and transphobic. I can’t really trust anyone. I also think one of my less-behaved classmates is in the closet and hiding under homophobia and jokes. His friend I’m pretty sure he had a crush on moved to California at the end of last year. I’m hoping that he and any other closeted classmates figure out they’re not alone there. I wouldn’t mind knowing that myself.
Congrats on your rainbow backpack victory! It sounds like this is a difficult time in your life, and I feel for you! Just remember that one day, you will be free to build the awesome life you want and deserve, be you an ally or a member of the LGBTQUIA+ community. The people around you now may have power of many kinds over you, but one day you will have very different people populating your life, and they will love, accept, support, understand, and include you. Take care of yourself!
I identified as a lesbian for ages, cut my hair into a long-ish bob and then a few weeks later I developed my first male crush in absolute years. The bisexual haircut is real.
I saw that Tigress helps Lioness raise cubs vid ... I never thought of it as a gay interspecies couple ... just a best friend helping a single mom.... The idea of them being an interspecies lesbian couple raising cubs together makes it sound so much more wholesome for some reason!
Gay wwII love letters: TRUE story. There is a bbc article from 2018 about it. Gilbert Bradley and Gordon Bowsher. The letters are in the Oswestry Town Museum. The book seems to be still on its way and not published yet, even some rumors about a movie.
I literally started crying while watching this! I wish my parents/family were this supportive. They are so homophobic/transphobic/LGBTQphobic in general. I went to the store with them today and I literally had to ignore all instructions I'd ever gotten from my parents about not walking away from them, so I didn't start crying randomly in front of them. I had to avoid the "Why are you crying?" question, while they were talking about transphobic shite. They were talking about a transphobic man who got into a fight with a trans woman, and now the transphobic man's store is getting so much positive attention and so many customers because he's transphobic and he fought with a trans woman. My parents are so proud of that man and the fact that his sales are skyrocketing. 😿 Long story not so short, thank you, Jamie, for making me smile. ✨😽✨
My advice: Protect Yourself: Say Nothing. Bide your time until you are financially independent from them. Use private browser tabs. Erase your viewing history from all media. Protect Yourself: Use DuckDuckGo or another search engine that doesn't track you. Use the web browser interface to all your social media and not the apps, so that the algorithms don't feed you suggestions that anyone with your devices can find. Protect Yourself: Lie every and any time they ask you about LGBT+ stuff. Meanwhile, plan for your future when you can be your true self. And mourn. Mourn that you don't have a family that will ever love and accept you. Mourn that your biological progenitors aren't your parents, they're your keepers. If it helps, harden your heart. If it helps, hate them for every bigoted thing they say. And when, in 4, or 8, or 10 years when you finally are free of them, build your Logical Family to replace your poisonous biological family. Then, come out to them by telling them that they never loved you, then remind them of every homophobic and transphobic thing they've done. Do it in a letter so you can't be interrupted. Then Protect Yourself: cut off all communication. And then, at long last, build your new life, your true life.
@@not_the_only_cannoli_ Fortunately, no, because I didn't come out until (a) I was 23; and (b) 8 months after I was hospitalized for psychosis caused by a major depressive episode. I met my now-husband shortly thereafter. Everyone was just relieved that I was alive, and overjoyed that I was actually happy at long last. But in my 52 years of life, I've known more than a few gay men, lesbians, and transwomen who had to cut ties with their biological family. Also: not one did my depressive mood disorder complicate my coming out to myself (because it shuts off a person's libido), during major episodes, I'd start to suffer from paranoia. That carved a groove into my mind all those years before I finally got treatment, so I've remained a tad paranoid in regards to some things, especially security and privacy. Again: Protect Yourself. Plan for the Future. Bide Your Time.
Now if only hoomans could be as loving and accepting as lionesses and the rest of nature. And spongebob. He loves everyone. Thank you for the wholesome Sunday. ❤️
The lesbian weddings were so sweet and remind me of my sister-in-law and her new wife. Their wedding was a couple of weeks ago and they were both gorgeous brides in their white dresses ❤🏳️🌈
As a licensed massage therapist, I will just say that it isn’t really that unusual for sisters to get a couple’s massage together, especially if they’re doing so as part of a “girls day out” and they want to hang out and talk together. It’s also common for parents and children to get couples massages. Usually it’s either because the parent doesn’t speak English and needs a translator, or the child is a minor and the standard policy is that a child under 16 needs to have a parent in the room with them.
7:48 I had something simular to this happening. I told my friend that I was dating a Trans Guy. Friend asked me which way he was transitioning....I repeated that he was a Trans Guy. After about a minute, it clicked. We had a good laugh about it. The Trans Guy I'm referring to broke up with me. It wasn't anything bad. We both realized we were too busy for each other, both of us not in love anymore. We're friends tho. It was a wholesome breakup.
@@TheLadyDelirium I'm not sure what you mean by uptake? I thought it would be hard for me, since I'm very touch-me-not due to trauma, but I actually loved it.
I LOVE these videos Jammie, I really need to see positive things for sure now and then, even though a good chuckle from the "other side of the internet" is quite hilarious at times, but wholesomeness is tugging the heartstrings much deeper and gives the warm fuzzies better! 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰 1:42 I have a friend and her wife come out in the same way! She was FTM and wife was lesbian, and they're both so happy now it's wonderful to see in real life as well as on here 😃💖💯 *CUTE OVERLOAD* Please do more! *HUGE SUBSCRIBER HUGS!!*
6:50 As a Chinese myself, I know a lot of Chinese young gay couples who have already been together for a long time and they are *still* not allowed to get married ꒦ິ^꒦ິalways makes me sad Also the number of countries that don't allow gay/lesbian marriages makes me even more sad
What about the 75 Countrys where being gay is a Crime or all the Countrys were being gets punished by the Death Penalty? LIke looking up the gay right worldwide can make you downright depressed
I have had severe mental illnesses for decades and is right now going through a depression as well as a stubborn cold (not Covid, tested). This video brought a smile to my heart and now I feel like I can sleep well for the first night in a while. Love the positive stuff, the wholesomeness! Jamie, maybe you could make a playlist of just wholesome videos for us who needs some smiles?
I need to know if I’m the only one that feels like this: You know that feeling when there’s lots of food in the pantry but you don’t what to eat. Except that instead of a pantry it’s the closet and the food it’s possible sexualities. Then you just stand there overwhelmed by the options before rage quitting (being straight), only to return 20 minutes later and repeat. This is how I feel trying to figure out my own sexuality and was wondering if I was the only one.
Be patient with yourself. You are allowed to be uncertain. If you're sexuality is still out-of-focus, that's okay. Some of us know we're not cis-het-allo, but don't know anything more until some time passes and we've had more experiences in our lives. Sounds like you're one of those. So again, be patient with yourself. Be kind to yourself. _You Are Still Valid,_ even if you don't have a specific letter in the ever-growing acronym. Back in the 1990s we were trying to reclaim the word "Queer" as an umbrella-term for the entire gender-n-sexual-minorities community. Why not just use that, if you need a label, until things come into focus?
I was watching a lesbian movie with my grandpa to see how he would react to it and he kept saying stuff like: “Ah those poor girls, they just want to be happy. Why are those homophobes so mean to them??” And when my grandmother started being homophobic he told her that she was being offensive and I love him soo much
I recently came out to my parents, but it wasn't the way I wanted to do it. They reacted really well and are open to educating themselves. Although it wasn't the way I wanted it, I'm glad they accept me. I was crying so much, because I thought they would hate me. I was pleasantly surprised. I hope all of you are well. Know you are loved, valid, and appreciated. ❤
"I've known you were gay since you were six. I've loved you since you were born."
DAMN. I almost cried at that. So simple, yet so meaningful.
That entire meme just made me so emotional
Yep
I’ve seen that one many times and I love it every single time
"Pick up OJ and bread, cuz we are out... Just like you." That was just class act, right there. 👍🏻
2:43 It's nice and good that the father is supportive. But it was not good for him to eavesdrop on what he knew was a private conversation, and it was even cringier for him to write that note. The boy deserved to come out on his own terms.
The woman realizing she's gay at the same time her partner came out as trans is so sweet! I guess maybe even when she thought she was marrying a man, some part of her was attracted to the woman she didn't know she was marrying.
i agree, it's so romantic/poetic
Awww that's such a sweet way of putting it!
A similar thing happened with my parents. My mom is bisexual and had only dated men before she met her wife. Before said wife came out, my mom was always talking about how my “dad” was so much more sensitive and understanding than any guy she’d dated before, and that there was just something about it that was different. A few years later, they both figured it out and they recently got remarried as two women on their 20th anniversary.

That's adorable
I have a friend who has flags up with fairy lights on them all year
That's great!!! She can totally keep them up year round!
This is so wholesome... I smiled when I saw this comment

They really cut into their own flesh. It's got the same energy as my ten year old self being pissed off about having to cut an apple, trying to stab the apple, but slipping with the knife and cutting into my finger tip. However, ten year old Raven learned not to stab apples, but I wonder if Alabama will learn not to ban marriage for anybody...
But why? I mean I know why but, why?

I just came out to my brother as gay and non-binary or genderfluid (if that makes any sense). He used to be EXTREMELY Anti-LGBTQIAP+ but he educated himself thoroughly and he is a really good ally now. He says he fully accepts me and I feel so happy.
That is so fantastic!

Good on both of you 🤌👉
I stayed in closet for years because I thought my husband would leave me if he knew I was a trans man.

@@ukargeo I'm Little Daddy. It's purely based on height. I'm 4'10" and he's 5'11". My kids were...5 and 3 years old when they started calling us that.
That is the cutest thing ever!!!
I’ve been meaning to say this for a while and I might have already I don’t remember. But I just wanted to say when I started watching you I was under the impression I was a cis woman. I started watching you when I was questioning if I liked girls. I remember you talking about people saying how they watched you before they noticed they were trans and I was like “no, couldn’t be me, I’m definitely a girl.” Months later now I identify as trans and use he/they pronouns. Sometimes we surprise ourselves I guess.
Edit: thanks for the support and I love reading all your stories in the replies. I just want you to know you’re all valid and you’re not alone
Omg that is wholesome! Similar for me, although I identified as cishet ally, then unlabeled cis woman and now she/they (demigirl) and lesbian/Unlabeled 🥰
You are valid and I love you, don't öet anyone tell you something different 😊
I didn’t understand I was lgbtq+ until I started to get to know people from the community and talk to them about their experiences and noticed that what I had felt since I was a child was something they experienced too. I identify as non binary and bi nowadays and finally understood why I didn’t fit in with the others that easily. Before that I felt like a hetero cis girl that’s just „not like other girls“ 😅
Addressing people who discovered they were LGBT+ after watching this channel caused more people to realize that applied to them. The Circle of Pride.
Same happened with me!! I watched Jamie for ages before realising I'm trans hahah
omg i love that so much, congrats for finding yourself!!! similar experience here, after watching a bunch of trans youtubers like jamie i realized my gender dysphoria was totally valid and that just because i look and present feminine doesn’t mean i’m cis. i now know i’m non-binary and i use she/they pronouns 💕
Lioness and tigeress: **are gay for each other**
Scientists: They’re just really good friends
tHE FEELING WAS FRIENDSHIP
OMG They're junglemates!
I mean, lionesses help each other raise kids all the time. It's the tigress that's unusual.
@@thewerewolfofwaggawagga8818 no what's unusual is the cross species relationship
Yea they don’t want to believe anything because the truth is gay
Speaking of wholesome LGBT+ stuff, I remember when I came out as bi to my parents, and they started referring to my theoretical future partners in gender neutral terminology. It was a little thing, but it was really sweet and meant a lot to me.
My parents have done that. I never really thought about it but recently as I’ve been questioning my sexuality i started to notice what it really ment
My mom joined a "free mom hugs" group after my brother & I came out, and asked us to make sure they were a legit group that was appreciated by the LGBT+ community. She was already someone who gave free mom energy to our friends whose parents didn't support them, and I think it's fantastic to see these groups out there doing good work. Knowing there are people out there with extra love when you're lacking it makes so much difference for a lot of people.
Your mom sounds awesome!! Please give her a hug from me in return and say that I'm grateful that people like her are out there
I love that she took the time to make sure the group was actually helping the community!
@@excessivelyfangirlingbookw3339 Will do! She is in fact an awesome mom!
@@teryel3493 me too! She's familiar with the LGB part of things since she was part of a majority queer friendgroup as a student, but since one of us is trans and we're both ace, she's done a ton of research and asked a lot of questions to us about the community as a whole so she can be supportive. She's a really great mom and she hasn't always gotten it right but she's gone out of her way to do her best and we're definitely fortunate to have her!
My mom got me a binder for my birthday and I’m so happy!!!
CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!
good for you !!
that’s great :D
Yooo that’s awesome!!
That’s good to hear!
The coming out as lesbian and a transwoman one was so cute, like that works out so well.
its like both the wife, the newly-discovered wife and the couple are evolving at the same time ! The perfect synergy :3
Came to say the same. It's like, it all makes sense.
Can you imagine how funny that coming out was!?
I'm a trans lesbian, too, so I can relate to that.
When I came out two years ago, my mom was the first relative I told. She knew for years that I shave my body hair off and had her suspicions about me at least since I was a teenager. When you factor in step-relatives, I told my step-niece before any of the rest knew. "Malika" is gay, too, and we have plenty of common interests so I felt she was safe to tell. She had her suspicions about me being trans or gay. In a way, she was right about both.
@Non-Binary Disabled Dolphin yeah, lesbians are attracted to other women. Trans women are women. I don't seem to see what the confusion is here
The one with the ladies getting married after 50 yrs bought tears to my eyes. I am so grateful that my trans son was not born 50 yrs ago. I love your channel, it gives me hope that he can just live an be happy, which honestly should just be how it is for people. Why gender, sexual orientation or whatever has anything to do with anyone else is beyond me. We just need to be kind and love each other.
I had a talk with my mom yesterday about how just 100 years ago, I would have been locked up and much worse, for being the way I am, and I think she might be starting to understand why I'm making myself so visible now.
I'm a gay trans guy from germany... It's not even been 100 years... but there's been so much progress all over the world since then... we still have a long way to go, but it's getting better.
You are so right
That's beautiful.
No matter how difficult things get, you're never alone. People you don't even know are rooting for you. Stay hydrated, and take things step by step until you can slowly nudge yourself out of your comfort zone to leap further and complete your goals. I believe in you! Don't beat yourself up over tiny setbacks, you're learning and you're making progress regardless.
U TOO!
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you
I love seeing your comment every Jammidodger video. You are awesome!
This video made my day so much better and your comment was the cherry on top, thank you and I wish you the same ! ^^
I actually cried for the old lesbian couple getting maried. I don't why but it made me really happy
same, i teared up a bit because it was so wholesome :')
I cried too
Same :’j
Wholesome I love old couples
Here's a cute couple story for you folx : My gf & I are 2 trans people, she's a trans woman, I'm a trans man and we're both asexual, but when we met neither of us knew about that. We were a "straight" couple as we thought we should be, but I discovered I was ace, shared it with her and she slowly came to realise she was too. Later, she came out as trans then a year later, I came out as trans too. Now we're here, we're queer and still in love after almost 8 years (we'll celebrate the 8th anniversary on December 2021)! ^^
So cute

I actually got goosebumps when you read “I’ve known you were gay since you were six, I’ve loved you since you were born” WHOLESOME GOOSEBUMPS
1:44 I love this so much because imagine that conversation
"Honey I have something I need to tell you"
"Me too, you go first"
"I... Am attracted to women, I'm a lesbian"
"You- you are not gonna believe this but it's our lucky day"
The version in my head featured the first one come-out-to absolutely helpless with involuntary, situationally inappropriate relief laughter, because I tend to laugh with relief and the more intense it is, the harder it is to suppress. But never fear! In my head, the hugging and patting and happy crying through the laughter made it clear all was well, so first one to-come-out wasn't in terrible, pained suspense.
I'm sure Rachael is right and it was less cinematic, but our versions are cute too! :)
I love how Jami calls us Spuds🥺
It's like OT with beardos and weirdos
if Alabama altogether bans marriages then it's still technically married equality
I loved the responses to that ("[W]e did, guys, we got Alabama to ban the straights" and "It hurt itself in its confusion!") So damn accurate!

literally!! mine is pink with a marble design aha
It was probably the best part of the video for me. Sometimes you get wrapped up in the memes and it can feel a little invalidating.
And just havin someone remind you that its just jokes and even if you don't relate you're still you is very wholesome and great.

Mine is purple. Mine are always purple. Still Bi. :)
To anyone that’s ever commented “last time I was this early I was just a really good ally” on these videos …thanks for calling my ass out 😂🏳️🌈

The tower isn't sapient it is a bunch of rocks
Do rocks have sexualities? Where are the geologists we need to check this
@@seabassthegamer6644 as a child who once had a geology phase, yes rocks are as gay as i am.
Kind of related to that last one, when Ireland had our vote to amend the constitution for same sex marriage. The text read "Marriage may be contracted in accordance with law by two person without distinction as to their sex" (ie, gender of the participants of the marriage is not a factor in the legality of the marriage. However the Irish text (as our constitution exists in both langauge) read "Féadfaidh beirt, cibé acu is fir nó mná iad, conradh a dhéanamh i leith pósadh de réir dlí" translated directly meaning "a couple may, whether they are men or women, make a contract of marriage in accordance with law" which had an interpretation (the 'they' implying plural here due to it referencing couple) necessarily both had to be men OR women.
In the same year our government accidentally, for two days, legalised ketamine, ecstasy, crystal meth and magic mushrooms.
How do you accidentally do that?
I want to know what happened those two days
Maybe the incidents were related?😂
Did they have too many ‘magic mushrooms’?
Ah yes, only gay marriage. Perfectly balanced.
Are we not gonna talk about how the lesbian business card is flowers surrounding SCISSORS!!! 😂😂😂😂
I screamed when I saw that
It took me a moment….. 😁
Going hard with the branding!
ahahahah ikr
also the flowers look like violets (another sapphic symbol)!!!
Jamie, I just want to say thank you *wipes away a few happy tears* I am a 36 YO bi trans woman. I lost my whole family in my transition, which was a good thing in the end. But I have watched your videos over the years, even before coming out. You for me, have been a beacon of hope and inspiration. Even in my job as an adolescent counselor, working with my baby trans clients. You help myself, as well as the kids I am working with get through the tough stuff. Thank you so much for being you.
Esmeralda Xóchitl
I think the most wholesome thing about this video is the comment section,
I honestly think Jamie has one of the most lovely supportive community and even if the video is mildly upsetting (some of the topics like looking at far right tik toks or the fight against JKR and how much of a horrible person she is) the comment section will always make me feel loved and supported and needed so, if you're reading this you are loved by someone and even if you don't think it youve made someone happy, simply by existing (:
Jammi: "we did it, we got Alabama to ban the straights!"
Me: nearly chokes on my pizza as I laugh too hard.* I love this!
I live in Alabama and I'm sad it's not happening yet
Jamie, I noticed you trying NOT to cry and I have to say... please don't ever feel ashamed to show your feelings. Men should be able to show their emotional side without feeling shame. You are incredibly brave with your trans and bi journey and we are all so proud of you so let your emotions flow. You got this, you sweet spud 💜🦄
I can't wait until I get older and I get to the stage that I can offer free parent hugs at Prides
Why wait?
The minute I get to be able to go to prides Imma give sibling hugs lol
Someone said this to me when I said I'm waiting to start my transition why wait?
Same here. For now I'm old enough to offer sibling hugs, and I can't wait until I can get back to pride to do so
I know this may be a bit off topic, but could someone maybe help me with something? I'm wondering what would be a good alternative to aunt/uncle for someone who identifies as nonbinary or goes by they/them pronouns. I don't have any figures like that in my life and I'm making a character who is nonbinary and has a nephew who is very fond of them. If anyone could help me with this, I would greatly appreciate it!
Edit: Thank you all for your help!
Another edit: The reason why I don't want to always just use their name is because it's a one-syllable name. I don't know any nicknames that could come from it, but I'll try and come up with some of those too. Also ankle, auncle, and zizi are all really cute. Once again, thank you all for your help!
replying to see the answer
Ankle, unat
@@TheMoonIsFrosted As a enby i love Ankle a lot.
@@kirin_jindosh awesome :D
Hmm… I use they/it/he and I thought abt this type of stuff. Generally I know a lot of people who have thought of “nibling” for nephews/nieces and just siblings who use they/them pronouns (my uncle uses that for me a lot I said they could call me nephew but they don’t want too-) but I think generally, the person who has the nephew would be able too decide if they want to be uncle or auntie? Sometimes I think about when I become an uncle- I’d want to be called uncle because that’s my preference. But it’s very hard to decide- some people like too merge them together but hmm… when you look up on google you’ll see “pibling” standing for parents sibling which I personally think sounds… interesting… but yeah I think most the time I see non-binaries who just identify as “non-binary aunt” or “non-binary uncle” and uh- yeah hope that helps ?? Basically just make it clear that they have decided they are okay too be called aunt or uncle even though they are non-binary and it should be fine I guess ^^
i am in fact gay, trans and german. so it is okay 🏳🌈🏳🌈
the holy trinity djdndhd
The chosen one
same lol
You have the power of all gays combined.
Same. High five :D
The old lesbian couple getting married made me cry a lot, beause where I live it's still illegal to get married and recently a gay man was burned alive for just living with his bf. I am still young so i hope I get to witness gay/lesbian marriage legal. Have a good day everybody.
as a queer person in a small town, i really appreciate this video and you normalizing these things. my family have always told me they would love me "even if i was gay" which is so much better than what lots of people get from family but it still hurts to know that i'm letting them down in a way. so thank u for reminding me that there are people out there who will love me FOR me, not in spite of me.
I'm also LGBTQ+ in a small down... in Scotland though probably one of the most liberal countries in Europe
I finally came out to my best friend the other day, after about a year of trying to build up enough confidence :)
congratulations! how did it go?
Judging by the smiley face, it must have gone well
@@andii- Very well! She said that she would always be there for me and that she kind of knew but didn’t want to make assumptions :)
@@nellherself that’s great!!
Excellent!
8:14 that's the one that made me tear up. When I came out, my dad said he didn't accept me because he had expectations for his son. 11 years later, and he still doesn't accept his daughter. It would've meant the world to hear that message, but I never got it.
If your parents accept you, please appreciate them. If they don't accept you, please know that you can still build a new family. I made it through HRT and SRS without the help of my parents, but with the care of my best friend, whom I love like a sister.
I'm so sorry you had to go through life like this because of being yourself. I'm proud of you for sticking to your true self and finding strength in your chosen loved ones. 💖 Hope you're doing ok.
It's sad that even after seeing you go through so much to be true to yourself that they still can't accept you.
But that is on them.
You've gone on and made a new life for yourself and family you can love and trust.
Continue to seel joy and you'll keep finding it.
@@alicecain4851 They cut me off when I changed my name, which was the first thing I did, so they never saw me on HRT, and they will never know about SRS.
I feel like, subconsciously, the lesbian with the trans wife could already tell. She married a woman at heart, even if she thought it was a man.
My favourite coming out comment.........."Dad, I'm gay". Dad looks at son and says "same rules as your sister, no boys in your bedroom". And, that was it lol
I really resonated with the two women who asked if they were ready, and she said I waited fifty years for this. My mothers in-law were together for 35 years and they finally were able to get married several years ago. I was so happy for them!
Hello! This message is for anyone out there that is struggling with their sexuality/sexual identity.
I'm wishing you the best and sending you love from the bottom of my heart. I hope you find your true authentic self and get to be the amazing person you were always meant to be.
To a better, free, fair world.

Thank you!
Aw thanks❤❤
Thanks for this!
Thank you, I needed this
Just know if your parent(s) isn’t/aren’t proud or accepting of who you are, there are lots of people who care about and support you. I was outted as trans by my transphobic sister to my transphobic parents and I know how important it is to have a community who cares about you. Much love. ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜
Ouch. Wholesome hug from a Dad.
I needed this video. My dad said something kind of shitty as a “joke” and it kind of hurt (not out to him obviously, and most of the time his comments and jokes don’t bother me, but the one today just struck a nerve for some reason). Thanks Jamie (hope that how your name is spelt haha).
I know I'm just a random stranger on the internet but I support you and your identity and feelings of hurt by these jokes are valid. Sending love!
@@allyrose8884 I second this profession of love, validation, and support. May tomorrow bring you kinder interactions, acceptance, understanding, and inclusion!

When I came out as trans, the only thing that changed in my relationship was that I asked my partner if he was ok with putting the wedding off until I was further along in my transition. He agreed even though we've had to put it off twice already because of covid. Love my bisexual fiance!
My uncle (early 80’s) rang my dad to let him know that he and his partner of about 25 years are getting married in October ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

1:37 I'm bi and mtf trans, and my mum is mostly supportive, but one time we were talking about how many bi people I knew, and, KNOWING THAT I AND SOME OF MY CLOSEST FRIENDS ARE BI, said "I feel like kids that are bi are just doing it as a bit of transition phase to try things out, and will eventually end up being gay or straight".
I couldn't stop smiling throughout the video, just one thing to keep in mind-if your burger is rainbow coloured, you probably shouldn't eat it.
Well, if it's a falafel burger you could colour it with food colouring safely :)
That goes into the same category as green or purple ketchup in my head. I just can't.
Random fun fact: r/prequelmemes didnt change the picture back from palpatine with a pride flag to normal palpatine on july 1st (the mods are slow with that there). After a few days of people making memes about it, the mods changed it to palpatine with the pride flag and some sunglasses.
Just thought its funny and it kind of fits with wholesome/funny lgbt stuff

Alternate title: Jamie trying not to cry for 10 minutes straight
My mom let me pick out a new backpack online for this school year and I picked one that was sort of gradient rainbow. It’s a small victory and I’m a bit worried but I’m hopeful. I go to a catholic school and some people I truly believed in turned out homophobic and transphobic. I can’t really trust anyone. I also think one of my less-behaved classmates is in the closet and hiding under homophobia and jokes. His friend I’m pretty sure he had a crush on moved to California at the end of last year. I’m hoping that he and any other closeted classmates figure out they’re not alone there. I wouldn’t mind knowing that myself.
Congrats on your rainbow backpack victory! It sounds like this is a difficult time in your life, and I feel for you! Just remember that one day, you will be free to build the awesome life you want and deserve, be you an ally or a member of the LGBTQUIA+ community. The people around you now may have power of many kinds over you, but one day you will have very different people populating your life, and they will love, accept, support, understand, and include you. Take care of yourself!
I mean, they didn’t even succeed in going against marriage equality with that last one: marriage was equally prohibited for everyone!
Yeah it blows me away why people can't understand why same sex marriage literally does nothing but allow more people to be happy
I identified as a lesbian for ages, cut my hair into a long-ish bob and then a few weeks later I developed my first male crush in absolute years. The bisexual haircut is real.
I saw that Tigress helps Lioness raise cubs vid ... I never thought of it as a gay interspecies couple ... just a best friend helping a single mom....
The idea of them being an interspecies lesbian couple raising cubs together makes it sound so much more wholesome for some reason!
Gay wwII love letters: TRUE story.
There is a bbc article from 2018 about it. Gilbert Bradley and Gordon Bowsher. The letters are in the Oswestry Town Museum.
The book seems to be still on its way and not published yet, even some rumors about a movie.
That sounds interesting. I'm gonna have to look it up.
I literally started crying while watching this! I wish my parents/family were this supportive. They are so homophobic/transphobic/LGBTQphobic in general. I went to the store with them today and I literally had to ignore all instructions I'd ever gotten from my parents about not walking away from them, so I didn't start crying randomly in front of them. I had to avoid the "Why are you crying?" question, while they were talking about transphobic shite. They were talking about a transphobic man who got into a fight with a trans woman, and now the transphobic man's store is getting so much positive attention and so many customers because he's transphobic and he fought with a trans woman. My parents are so proud of that man and the fact that his sales are skyrocketing. 😿
Long story not so short, thank you, Jamie, for making me smile. ✨😽✨
My advice: Protect Yourself: Say Nothing. Bide your time until you are financially independent from them. Use private browser tabs. Erase your viewing history from all media. Protect Yourself: Use DuckDuckGo or another search engine that doesn't track you. Use the web browser interface to all your social media and not the apps, so that the algorithms don't feed you suggestions that anyone with your devices can find.
Protect Yourself: Lie every and any time they ask you about LGBT+ stuff.
Meanwhile, plan for your future when you can be your true self. And mourn. Mourn that you don't have a family that will ever love and accept you. Mourn that your biological progenitors aren't your parents, they're your keepers. If it helps, harden your heart. If it helps, hate them for every bigoted thing they say.
And when, in 4, or 8, or 10 years when you finally are free of them, build your Logical Family to replace your poisonous biological family. Then, come out to them by telling them that they never loved you, then remind them of every homophobic and transphobic thing they've done. Do it in a letter so you can't be interrupted. Then Protect Yourself: cut off all communication. And then, at long last, build your new life, your true life.
@@John_Weiss Is that what you did?
@@not_the_only_cannoli_ Fortunately, no, because I didn't come out until (a) I was 23; and (b) 8 months after I was hospitalized for psychosis caused by a major depressive episode. I met my now-husband shortly thereafter. Everyone was just relieved that I was alive, and overjoyed that I was actually happy at long last.
But in my 52 years of life, I've known more than a few gay men, lesbians, and transwomen who had to cut ties with their biological family.
Also: not one did my depressive mood disorder complicate my coming out to myself (because it shuts off a person's libido), during major episodes, I'd start to suffer from paranoia. That carved a groove into my mind all those years before I finally got treatment, so I've remained a tad paranoid in regards to some things, especially security and privacy.
Again: Protect Yourself. Plan for the Future. Bide Your Time.

The lesbian weddings were so sweet and remind me of my sister-in-law and her new wife. Their wedding was a couple of weeks ago and they were both gorgeous brides in their white dresses ❤🏳️🌈
i just found your videos, and as someone who's very recently come out as lesbian, this video is the best thing I've seen in ages
As a licensed massage therapist, I will just say that it isn’t really that unusual for sisters to get a couple’s massage together, especially if they’re doing so as part of a “girls day out” and they want to hang out and talk together. It’s also common for parents and children to get couples massages. Usually it’s either because the parent doesn’t speak English and needs a translator, or the child is a minor and the standard policy is that a child under 16 needs to have a parent in the room with them.

I need to know if I’m the only one that feels like this:
You know that feeling when there’s lots of food in the pantry but you don’t what to eat. Except that instead of a pantry it’s the closet and the food it’s possible sexualities. Then you just stand there overwhelmed by the options before rage quitting (being straight), only to return 20 minutes later and repeat.
This is how I feel trying to figure out my own sexuality and was wondering if I was the only one.
Be patient with yourself.
You are allowed to be uncertain. If you're sexuality is still out-of-focus, that's okay. Some of us know we're not cis-het-allo, but don't know anything more until some time passes and we've had more experiences in our lives. Sounds like you're one of those.
So again, be patient with yourself. Be kind to yourself. _You Are Still Valid,_ even if you don't have a specific letter in the ever-growing acronym. Back in the 1990s we were trying to reclaim the word "Queer" as an umbrella-term for the entire gender-n-sexual-minorities community. Why not just use that, if you need a label, until things come into focus?
@@John_Weiss Thanks, that means a lot ♥️🏳️🌈
@@snow17048 Hey, that's what is wizened old gays are here for: to advise and help those younger than us.
Thanks for the serotonin boost, Jamie! Much love! *squishy Big sis hugs* (I'm accepting you as my little bro now. 💖)
1:39 the universe really said "nope, nope, you're staying soulmates. no buts."
Gay weddings always make me cry. It became legal while I was a queer adult, so it still hits different.
Jammi is so wholesome that every video of his is wholesome
I was watching a lesbian movie with my grandpa to see how he would react to it and he kept saying stuff like: “Ah those poor girls, they just want to be happy. Why are those homophobes so mean to them??” And when my grandmother started being homophobic he told her that she was being offensive and I love him soo much
I love your grandpa
I needed a happy video today. thank you Jamie!
I decided to grow my hair out after years of the bi cut. It's taking a lot of self restraint not to chop it off again!

@@srishtis6209 awww...blush... thanks! :)
This video came right when i needed it. Thanks Jamie. ❤️
I recently came out to my parents, but it wasn't the way I wanted to do it. They reacted really well and are open to educating themselves. Although it wasn't the way I wanted it, I'm glad they accept me. I was crying so much, because I thought they would hate me. I was pleasantly surprised. I hope all of you are well. Know you are loved, valid, and appreciated. ❤
I've binged a bunch of your videos recently, this is the one that made me cry. There were just SO MANY SWEET POSTS!
