  • This is a shortened version of a documentary created by Stephanie Frosch and Nykita Veone. Violence disproportionately affects transgender women than any other LGBTQIA+ group around the globe, yet police statements and media reports fail to address the root of this issue: toxic masculinity. Wearing His Closet follows transgender model and activist, Nicki Vrotsos as she embarks on a journey to reclaim her narrative, her power, and her visibility by wearing the repercussions of the men who are insistent on staying silent and keeping trans women in their closet.

    As a pre-transition trans woman, this made me cry so much. It scares me that this world dehumanizes us this much, but this video also gives me hope cause clearly people care and people want change.

    I’m a cis women and I’d just like to say that this was so powerful and emotional. I am a bit sick to my stomach listening to this because I was in a relationship with a man I could see doing this. He was a narcissist and I was basically just a cover for him not to lose his masculinity. I was mentally abused for years while he went around manipulating trans women into thinking he was single and that I was just a crazy ex. He would gaslight me and say all the cheating was not him, but was his twin brother who would not come clean because his twin was the one feeling emasculated. All lies. I am sorry to the trans women I held resentment towards when I thought they knew I was his girlfriend and got with him. I am sorry for the bad treatment they had to endure by him and still probably are enduring to this day. I hope to god he is not going around abusing these women but deep down I know he still is. For any women who has had to endure mental and physical abuse like this I am sorry. This is not okay. Keep talking about it, don’t let this conversation end here. Stay strong and stuck together with your fellow women. We have your backs, I promise.

    Happy 30th Birthday Stephanie. Welcome to the 30-year-old club its very elusive club. I believe that no matter what age we turn in 2023 that everyone should celebrate it in any way that they can and do it the best that they want to with friends and family. It should be celebrated in an awesome way.

    I definitely get the "I wasn't stealth but I wasn't out" thing. I did that for years, being more public in early 2016 as part of activism against North Carolina HB2 (I lived in Raleigh then.) People like Mara Keisling and Sarah McBride were doing PR things in the state on occasion but there was nobody local doing it and Equality NC was unresponsive (I tried them; they wouldn't even give me the time of day) so I did it.
    I was first out as trans in the mid-1990s, at 19. That didn't go well; the first therapist decided to publicly out me for it. There was so little support then.

    Hearing her story opened my eyes once again to the struggles that women face especially trans women I wish cis people were more aware especially men that its not just every once & a while someone take a woman's power & how unfortunately comman it is
    I feel like it's a privilege to hear her story & for it to be out in the world to hopefully bring awareness

    This is such an amazing, inspiring, empowering project! I have so much deep respect for these strong women. As a cis woman myself I can't even begin to imagine what it is like to go through these experiences...
    Where can I find information about what I can do as an ally to support the trans community as best as I can? Would be amazing to have some sources for that! 💕 I would really like to step into activism on this subject.
    And also: where can I find the full length version of this documentary?

    Interesting... though I seem quite sure that what this warns about is still very rare. Still, she comes off as very attractive, intelligent and capable and I expect she will still find another guy that loves her as the girl she is.

    I am very protective of trans people they deserve to be respected and they deserve to be loved A matter fact I'm in a relationship with an amazing trance lady and I've been disowned by a lot of people because of that but it doesn bother me because I'm a happy man who is very protective of my trans woman and I would do anything for her including I would give my life for her any day of the week anyway great video and God bless you and keep up the wonderful videos

    Wow Matt Walsh really took you apart on his latest show. He showed all your responses to his questions and proceeded to make a complete mockery of them... by correcting every one of your fallacious statements. And without any of the ad hominem attacks you used. He even sympathized with your terrible waste of education by being shown up so abysmally by only a high school graduate. 😂😂😂😂
