I support the trans community. I don’t really care what people do with their lives as long as their happy and aren’t harming others. However, that doesn’t mean I agree or have to agree with everything the trans community advocates for. Unfortunately in today’s social climate, people have created an atmosphere that you have to walk on egg shells in & can’t question or challenge someone’s ideas because they’re apart of a disadvantaged community and this makes it very hard to have an honest and open dialogue without someone being in their feelings or being called a bigot.
You don’t have to walk on eggshells that’s a defense mechanism that forms when someone is challenging your thoughts, views, feelings or identity. Marginalized communities are asking people that are more privilege than them to educate themselves on ideas, subjects or laws that concern them. If a person enters a conversation and they haven’t done the work, they cannot control whether what they say is bigoted or not. That is for the person on the receiving end to decide. If a person doesn’t do the work they’re going to say something offensive. If a person is truly interested in being an ally or supporting a community, they have to do the work. If a person doesn’t agree with someone existence, their truth or their protection they shouldn’t say that they do just to feel good about themselves. Ally ship is transparent. If you didn’t know trans people are loosing their lives to bigotry and hatred. Black trans women in particular at a disturbing rate. So when people talk about trans issues, they’re passionate. Lives are at stake, literally.
@@chezzmix to regard i or any one else who challenges the some of the ideas within the trans community as ‘uneducated’ or simply bigoted is a fallacy within itself. Not allowing people to express their valid & differing opinions leaves no space to discuss a honest and truthful dialogue that the trans community claims they’re open to having. Its easy to write someone off as ‘uneducated’ & bigoted when you never intended on making an effort to listen to their piece & be challenged, its discrediting someones point of view simply because it challenges your own. The idea that i have to shut up & just accept any and all rhetoric from a marginalized community to be considered a true ally is overall sketchy. on another note, not to be nit picky but you’re exaggerating the violence that black trans women experience. if you’re measuring the amount of ‘privilege’ a marginalized community has over another simply based on the disproportionate amount of violence & deaths that one community experiences in comparison to the other(s), then by your own logic i, as a cis black woman certainly do not have more privilege than a trans woman. On average about 20 black trans women are killed A YEAR while every 20 or so HOURS a cis gendered black woman is killed. in fact, its this very exact dangerous and violent rhetoric in particular that claims cis gendered black women have exponentially ‘more privilege’ than trans Black women is what i have the biggest gripe with when it comes to the trans community & is simply not something i can get behind and cosign because thats simply not what statistics or any factual data reflects. Im never going to agree to erasing the plight & violence that cis black women experience to support the plight of another marginalized community. However, that doesn’t mean I’m not an ally or supporter of the trans community and instead of withdrawing my support for such violent rhetoric (because i am a true ally), Ive decided to challenge it in hopes to have a dialogue where cis black women & trans black women can critique, educate & correct one another & not diminish each others plight.
@@yauri3569 You didn’t take in anything I said and you don’t want to, so I’m going to meet you where you are. It is what is. The second paragraph...I will not digest any of your bigotry, racism or transphobia. What I said was reasonable. You’re clearly not interested in a dialogue nor prepared to have one. You’re not seeking understanding nor a positive position, you want to be anti. I’m not here to change your mind.
@@chezzmix you did nothing but prove my point lol. Deeming anything that challenges & goes against your rhetoric as transphobia and bigotry. You claimed that trans women were dying at an exponentially high & disproportionate rate & that i had more privilege due to this but when i corrected you & gave you facts to refute your claims you label it as transphobic lol. The reality is, you cant argue or disprove anything i said so now you’re salty & have nothing to resort to but petty name calling lol.
@@chezzmix and racism?? Im a black woman. If you actually took the time to read the second paragraph you’d understand i was speaking from a nuanced perspective as cis black woman. Its really interesting how you accuse me of not being interested in having an open dialogue when you yourself couldn’t be interested enough to make an effort to fully comprehend & understand my perspective. This is the hypocrisy many people are referring to when it comes to the trans community...On that note, be blessed!
Happy you watch the Derrick dude video. I'm far too impatient to watch it on my own so I just go with the memes. lol I stopped in the first few seconds once I realized he was talking about himself in 3rd mfn person. "Derrick Jackson cheated" instead of "I cheated." Weirdo.
Someone said she looks too basic for him, but he's the one who asked her on a date then proposed to her. Ain't nothing basic about her, all those IG models look the same if you remove the makeup, wig, eyelashes and waist trainers. He looks like a 4 at best. Just because he works out does not mean he's hot. Everybody can lift weight.
Exactly!! All those IG models with the same basic look (thick poorly stenciled eyebrows, obvious-wigs with annoying baby hairs everywhere, centipede eyelashes) are the real basic ones. His wife is beautiful. Because she doesn’t follow the tacky crowd she’s basic! FOH!!!
@@poshchamp9210 you can be upset with the husband and uplift the wife without taking out a whole group of women and calling them tacky. it's not the IG models fault that this man was unfaithful. He's just a clown. As much as I agree that everyone looks the same, who are we to tell these women they can't be who they wanna be
Read, listen and learn. Steps to take when you honestly want to know about a group of people you're not apart of. If you have a Netflix account I suggest the docomentery Disclosure to start.
Thank you but I'm no stranger to trans people or trans issues. I used to follow a number of trans people on UA-cam just to expose myself to their struggles in life. I've watch a number of documentaries but most of them don't paint a full picture. I have clients that are trans and I have had intimate conversations with them about their life, transition, self identity and more. I've done as you say and that's why I say what I say not the ramblings of someone ignorant and confused but as someone who as listened to the words and plight of trans people.
@@AfrikanHairGod Thanks for answering however I had to post this comment in two parts because my comment was deleted multiple times. It's sad honestly because after you have done all you say you have done you still got so many things wrong regarding trans issues. I remember listening to you tell your story about being a gay person on a bus and how damn near everyone on the bus treated you badly simply for being a gay Black man trying to live. Yet you agreed with someone in this comment section disrespecting trans people by speaking about them in a ugly way simply because trans kids want to participate in sports. So much of this thinking turns into laws which govern the way in which trans have to live. They are on that same bus simply trying to live.
@@jessicanoneyah9938 I never judged trans people nor said they were wrong for being and living their life how they see fit. Don't create a negative conjecture to change the narrative to suit your means and diminish what I said. You also can't marginalize another group of people just to validate your feelings. Stop trying to compare my experience with being judged, discriminated, and ostracized as a gay man to try to make false equivalencies. LISTEN TO WHAT THE HELL I SAID and stop making my words out to what y'all want it to be! You and everyone else keep trying to shift my words into anti-trans or transphobic speech but that's not what I said at all. This is part of the reason that we can't have a conversation about this because y'all hear what y'all want to hear and not what I actually said.
That religious girl sounds like my "friend" who decided that I was unworthy of her presence after I came out over 20 years ago. These overly religious people sound deranged to me. It's brainwashed, cult like behavior. I say that as someone who was raised in the church (but later came to my senses), and who still has family members who believe this kind of stuff. They claim to be about love, but when you really listen you realize most of what they say is fear based. Do exactly what we say, or you'll spend eternity in a lake of fire. And of course they always claim the lord sent them to tell you something, they're a soldier for the lord, etc. Nope, I'm good over here.
Everything you said regarding the wyte lady and the adopted daughter I agree with. And the black lady reacting was extra and annoying. Please keep giving a honest reaction.
At this point it is. Everyone says it's because she doesn't do hair full time and I can see that part of it but they do literally do the same thing in every single video
Right, I would like to see variety. Especially if you're a hair care professional who says that you can do all kinds of styling. Unless, that's all their audience's like to see. Now, if that's the case then they must have very repetitive viewers that are boring af? Show me more please, that's how I'm like.🙄🙄🤔
@@AfrikanHairGod I actually went to the salon recently I go again in a week. She seems to just stop by occasionally and does hair for the channel the actual person there all the time is named Ashley. From what I seen it’s Ashley’s managing the Philly location under the creator idk how it works. But they definitely do other stuff there. Maybe it’s because covid less staff working in one place.
So I missed the initial discussion about the trans topic but I’ll give my opinion. I recently watched a video by a trans woman who was degrading black woken and calling us “black bitches” and saying how masculine women look and men didn’t want black bitches that’s why they creep with trans women. I was so confused, because she was sitting there trying to look like the women she was calling black bitches 🙄 when people have questions and want to be educated trans ppl get offended and don’t want to educate people but it’s the same thing with people who want you to be more spiritual but don’t want to help you on your journey. It’s just weird trans people gate keep their community but get offended when you want to be educated.
I gotta thank you for teaching me about playback speed for hair videos 😂. Really helps get you through the chats and the extra instead of just doing their hair. Especially when all I came for is to see how they arranged/measured the parts 🙃.
Really enjoyed your stream last night. Thank you. You don’t understand how you make people feel and how much joy your bring literally just being you and making all of us laugh. So thanks again.
i was thinking the same thing. There is nothing wrong with her posting a video showing how she takes care of her daughters natural afro textured hair. The problem like always is the fact that they don't give credit where they know it is do. So she just came up with all of this on her own when she doesn't even have that hair type. Gurlllll bye😂😂😂It's really sad all the ass kissing and praising like damn okay where she learn it from though?😂🤣She did her research cool but where she get it from?
People started detangling with rinse-outs before deep conditioners because of popular UA-camrs (like Nap85). The only part about Mo’s video I disagree with is being able to detangle after a shampoo ‘because you just are’ lol. That’s how I got in the habit of doing prepoo detangling. It’s not that I can’t detangle after a shampoo, it just takes significantly longer since I always clarify, which makes my hair shrink on top of having shed hair trapped in there. Personally I’d just rather deal with shed hair and shrinkage separately than at the same time. So she can keep that, glad it works for her tho.
Great live stream as always😊!!! Lovin🖤 the new stream features, getting all fancy on us lol... great to hear your hands are doing much better and you're getting adjusted to your new diet and slimming down 🙌🏾!!!
Video 19: I would think a professional hair stylist would be hesitant of folks that go from stylist to stylist saying "the previous stylist damaged their hair."
People kill me with “African American hair” LMMFAOOO So hair on an African American is different from Nigerian hair or different from Jamaican hair? Lol smh I swear the ignorance
@Freyja Noire you sound ignorant and highly ill informed. It’s rather interesting that you feel confident enough to go around the Internet spreading that unintelligent bs lol
@Freyja Noire whatever will help you sleep at night Tink Tink. Even if that means your wrong a$$ thinking you are right lol. I call a spade a spade. You spread ignorance, I will call you ignorant. Good day
Narada... 1. I'm just catching up...2. Imma need you to narrate more videos when the music is a problem. It was at the moment when you said "Get into these mf curls. Get into it, " my drink MAY HAVE went flying.
I watched you when I was younger and have tuned in on just about all of your watch parties. They have been comforting, fun and educational. But as of late, Trans women’s identities are debated ad nauseam on this forum and it’s been dismaying. It is cool that you’ve done the work to better understand Trans people. Until seeing your responses to comments here, I would not have known that you have taken personal time to learn. It would be helpful to see what you have learned reflected in how you discuss Trans people with the community here for a possibly fruitful discourse. It’s disappointing and intellectually dishonest that questions are posed in the place of opinions. If there is an honest question, let’s take the time as a community to look up the answer. Doing so in other instances has not been an issue before. For instance, how various permanents work on hair have been looked up on multiple streams for shared understanding. It’d be the same effort for specific questions regarding Trans women. In the live comment section (I am not saying you are responsible for what your viewers comment), I noticed that there are assertions/opinions that may be based on misinformation, stereotypes and/or just blatant disrespect that furthers the marginalization, violence and death that many Trans women experience. It’s not just a simple matter of agreeing or disagreeing because most people understand that people are gonna think what they want to think and accept that fact. I see people going further than that: trying to have a dialogue with each other to shed light on how and why certain assertions people make are harmful towards Trans women. And many are reading to respond and not to actually engage in honest discourse. They just want to say their opinions without facing reproach. But here’s the thing: many of these opinions are the majority of thought in the Western world regarding Trans identities. It’s colonial hegemony at work. Trans identities are not new and many predate the Western colonialization of indigenous sovereignties. However, many of us do not know this until we are made aware of it. And even then, the fear of disillusionment, cognitive dissonance and/or being uncomfortable with “being wrong” makes it easy for people to be resistant to challenging their prejudices. Learning is not always comfortable. It can be icky at times and that’s okay. It’s a part of the process but it shouldn’t come at the expense of person’s humanity. Not all marginalized identities are oppressed in the same way but many of those identities do intersect for individuals. The exhaustion of being expected to defend one’s identity shouldn’t be lost on anyone here. It’s othering and dehumanizing. We can always challenge ourselves to know more before holding steadfast to feelings/opinions we have about the personhood of others. In the interest of genuine discourse, I further support the suggestions others have made for there to be individuals of various Trans identities who would be comfortable talk about their lived experiences and how those experiences are shaped by commonly held assertions and opinions.
Video 15 question: can vitamin supplements help with the thinning and overall strength of hair strands? I’ve been using keratin supplements and noticed an improvement when I recently colored my hair and the overall shedding. Just wondering if it could help with loc strength too
1:18:48. I thought people took their lace fronts off every 3days if not every night? That way you give your edges break and it makes wigs the ultimate protective style.
That’s why I never watched her video and blocked her content when it came on my line because I knew she would get pushed crazy and be on some bs, never fails.
Narada, your perspective and ours in the chat and comments over here are is the perspective of the deleted comments under their videos. They can't handle people not praising them.
Years ago, a straight white coworker asked me if I could fall in love with a trans because he knew that I was gay. I told him no because I am not a lesbian. LMAO!
Yeah I hate when people try to call trans people or trans-attracted people gay for the exact reason you stated. Trans is not synonymous with gay and to say it is blurs the lines and meaning of homosexuality.
@@vintagespade8351 "Gay" is not actually a precise technical term. A slang word that refers to "homosexuals" but is usually designated for men who have sex with men. Trans are not necessarily bisexual because they identify as the opposite sex that they were born into and may or may not be attracted to the opposite sex. From what I understand, there are a small number of gay, and bisexuals who are attracted to trans people. And trans people can be attracted to other trans. This is why we use the umbrella term: LGBTQT
2:16:57 Ok but how is it the stylist I went to who specializes in "curly hair" used high lift red color and my shit came out looking like Ronald Mcdonald? My goal was Kaice Alea(we should watch one of her vids btw) and I showed her pics. Now, my hair is very dark brown, not black and it's fine but still, how could it lift that much? Literally had to tone it and add semipermant to get a step just above her vibrancy.
Another great live as usual. The Derrick Jaxson part was really funny because I wasn’t expecting you to watch it. You have people like Kevin Samuels, Mediocre Tutorials & Reviews, etc who make videos explaining how Derrick Jaxson is a fraud but black women (his target audience) didn’t believe him. It’s funny that the truth has come out. Narada, I also think that if you decide to do another stream about transgender see if it’s possible to connect with someone and bring them on the stream with you. I say that because it seems like people don’t want you to have a say in the conversation since you’re not transgender (which is crazy) but maybe if you bring a guest on it might help cut the tension. I’m not sure if it will just speculating. Although we might not like talking about controversial things we still need to have these discussions in order to move forward.
@@LoXena whether he is a fraud or not doesn’t really matter and wasn’t my point. All I’m saying is that other people have exposed Derrick Jaxson as well but people couldn’t see the truth.
People love to hear what they want to hear - that’s why so many women were fooled by DJ. It shocked me to see that people were surprised he cheated and was full of it. Look at him. Listen to him. He’s like a slimy preacher who is selling a dream of a perfect black man. 🙄 I’d love to hear from DJs ex supporters to hear why they listened to him and why they sent this man money.
@@spacecase7566 exactly and I would love to hear it too. Also the dream that he’s selling wasn’t even ideal because he had a lot of women to believe that they can get any men they want when it doesn’t work that way. Women control access to sex while men control if they want to date/ propose to you. It’s that simple 🤷🏽♀️. Lol I’m just enjoying that he’s been exposed so that the women can finally get the truth.
Just wanted to comment that 2 of Christi Gior's daughters are black and the other 2 are white. One of the black daughters is a set of twins and the twin is a brother. All of her children were foster to adoption. The black kids are the oldest of the group and were she and her husbands first adoptions. The 2 white girls are more recent.
Derrick Jaxn * in the middle of a cheating scandal * : "I made my bed, now I have to lie in it.. Me: .. Are you not embarrazzed?? Of all phrases lmfao really?
I DONT EEEEVEN WANNA HEAR THIS FOOL..Look at this poor girl. I REALLY JUST WANT TO HEAR YOUR CLOWNIN' AND COMMENTARY. (I'm gonna fast forward when I don't see your lips moving) 😂😂😂 I've seen enough of this fool ALLLLL WEEK 😩
I love you, Narada, but the trans community should not have to withstand disrespect from those who need education. Most trans people have no problem explaining their identity and all that comes with it- however, using slurs like the T-word and "IT" are simply non-starters. Why defend your right to disrespect someone while demanding they educate you? The math ain't mathing. A lot of people disguise their disrespect as needing to be "educated" when in reality, they led with slurs and NOT the questions. It is OUR responsibility to learn how to love and respect people of all backgrounds. It's not their job to teach us how to be less horrible while we're actively being horrible toward them.
I'm not condoning any disrespect of anyone, nor was I requiring anyone to get on and provide education... She asked me the question and I was addressing her. I opened the floor to everyone in the live chat because they had so much to say and I felt that they could offer a different perspective in the dialogue and I also didn't want to specifically speak for the trans community when we had individuals of that demographic in the chat. The issue of her use of the term it was addressed in the live stream in question. The various uses of all the different pronouns really does confuse her but I did inform her that using that term to refer to any person is insulting and disrespectful. Again, I didn't expect anyone to get on and school anyone... Her question was directed to me as we have these types of convos all the time. I'm not sure where or how but for some reason everyone thought that I wanted trans people to get on and defend themselves that wasn't my intention and I didn't need them to.
There’s so much I could say, but I just don’t understand why so many people are set on coming AT you instead of adding to the trans convo when you’ve welcomed the convo plenty of times. How can we have an understanding of an issue/ person if we immediately get shut down and called transphobic, etc. We will never get anywhere in the world as people because now the new thing is to call someone a hater and -phobic
You want to be open to ask questions about trans people and their issues and when your followers are giving you trans content creator (WHO CAN ANSWER THOSE QUESTIONS) you say "nah why dont y'all tell me what the trans youtuber are saying". Want to be educated but also wants to be spoon fed the info
Okay since you want to go there.. . What questions was I actually asking that I needed her to answer? I was having a discussion not trying to learn about trans people. Everyone couldn't argue against anything that I said but instead decided to just dismiss what I was saying and just tell me to go watch Kat Blaque. I know of her and have watch her on and off over the years. I have studied gender and sexual diversity for years in college, had a series years ago talking about it, actually spoke to trans individuals in intimate detail but how exactly am I asking to be spoon fed? I've done my research.
Narada there is sooo much information out there about Trans people. If you are truly interested in learning about trans people you can google and UA-cam it just like any other topic. I feel like this is a subject that keeps coming up because you don’t really care about learning about the topic but you have an opinion that is not an educated one. I watch you all the time but when you talk about trans issues/ people I get extremely disappointed. As a member of the LGBTQ community you should know the struggles that our community goes through (I’m a lesbian). There was a time where gay people were thought of in the same way as trans people and still are in some ways, so you should have some understanding about that (especially when you were expressing your feminine side and discovering yourself in your self expression through clothes, jewelry and makeup). People misunderstand you judged you and didn’t care to learn and that I’m sure it was hurtful to you so why do the same to trans people? If you want to talk about trans people do the research first it’s as simple as that, simply throwing out an opinion about something without even trying to learn about it is being willfully ignorant. You are literally treating trans people the way straight people treat gay people or white people treat black people. It makes no sense when we are all apart of the same misunderstood community. People who really want to learn do the research. In your live streams when you want to learn about a product and don’t know you google it, go to the site or open your beauty school book sooo why when you talk about trans people and say “I’m only asking a question or I’m just trying to understand” you NEVER just look it up? You should really think about that. I hope you read this and open your mind because you seem to be closed off to what you already think about trans people and that is really sad.
Y'all are assuming that I'm talking about something I know nothing about. I've researched, watch documentaries, follow and watched trans people on UA-cam and have even spoken in person and in depth with some of my trans clients. Yall don't like my perspective but it's not based on blatant ignorance is based on complete honesty and disclosure. If y'all really listen to my words and not receive it as anti-trans then I think that would be the first step to having an open dialogue. But everyone wants to dismiss and invalidate my stance but don't want to address it
@@AfrikanHairGod honestly your comments and questions come off as uneducated some of the questions you have can be easily answered if it was researched so it’s hard to believe that you have. I think that it could be soo beneficial to do another LGBT panel with some trans people in it. It could be a great way to have an open and honest conversation about the topic that can educate the panel and the viewers. I think it would help a lot I really do.
It doesn't come off as uneducated, I challenge the trans agenda and indoctrination and say what people don't expect me to say. If you listen to the video when we discussed the subject in detail, you see that I'm explaining a lot of things to Henny and the audience regarding trans matters. Also, I never judged any trans people, I merely challenge some of their motives such as attaching the word trans when it's convenient then omitting it at their convenience. And my biggest issue is some them trying to equate their experience to that of their biological counterpart. They try to justify this based on their own internal feelings and if that's how you feel I'm not gonna take that away from you, but you also can't expect everyone to agree or go along with that just because you say so. People don't like or understand me as a gay man and that's their prerogative but I chose to use my platform to speak, share, and educate. People are not obligated to accept me as I am or how I want them to, so long as they don't disrespect me or cause me any harm.
@@AfrikanHairGod thank you for doing so because any commentary that runs counter to the current accepted discourse is deemed as "*phobic/uneducated". That is false. This landscape has changed so much since the aughts so for people to assume that you’ve never educated yourself by now is ridiculous.
With all due respect, I think you are wrong for the way you’ve handled talking about trans issues and I say this as a cis Black lesbian woman. I’m going to preface with I’m getting my PhD in psychology and I specifically study trauma and oppression so I’m saying this as someone trying to educate and advocate. It’s really unfair how you and some of the people in the chat where coming for trans people for voicing that they weren’t happy with what was happening and saying that it was transphobic. Because some of what was said and the opinions that were shared were truly transphobic factually. I know everyone wants to be entitled to their opinion but your opinion can be based in ignorance and/or factually incorrect. You don’t have to “walk on eggshells” you should say what you feel but if that rubs people the wrong way and/or is incorrect well it is what it is. Just like racists and homophobes say “well I don’t have a people with Black people or the lbgt” but then they say some shit that’s opposite to what the previous statement (and before someone goes and types “but that’s not the same!!!” I know. It’s called an analogy) We’ve seen Narada call it out several times and clapback at people (rightfully so) but suddenly it’s not okay if it’s trans people? I think it’s important for everyone to really think about why they’re much more concerned the reaction of hurt trans people rather than the fact they’re hurt and what we can do to make it better. If the logic is “those trans people should be nicer if you want people to support you” 1) you were never an ally in the first place 2) this is the same logic other oppressors use we’ve seen it all summer. I know it’s nice to say “well I support everyone” but if you dig deep and you really don’t believe in the cause? Well say that. And face the music. I know you said you wanted to be educated but at the same time say well no I’m not watching the trans UA-camrs probably in anger but that and Henny calling people “it” I can see why people reacted the way they did. I really do enjoy you and your content so I’m saying this to try to get you and your followers to see a different perspective. We’re all works in progress but we can make an effort to be better to each other.
The problem with this comment along with the others is that y'all aren't addressing any the things that I said. Yall are attaching your own interpretations to it but not the true meaning behind my words. Again like I said before and like I keep saying you and everyone else just wants to brush my words off and label it as transphobic or harmful.... Okay, why not instead have a conversation about my statements, why you deemed it as transphobic and why I feel that it's not. Yall are saying all of these things and making all of these assumptions but not one of you has ASKED me anything. Asked me why I feel the way I feel, why I said the things I said, or even asked me if I had already exposed myself to various resources about trans people or trans issues. I keep vying for constructive dialogue and conversation but all y'all keep trying to do is deconstruct my statements in a way that is not reflective of my message. Don't put words in my mouth... Don't assume the worst about what I said. Ask me!
@@AfrikanHairGod I did address what you said though. People have been trying to address it but there’s so much push back about the label of being transphobic. Even in the live you and others got upset and when others tried to elaborate you still got mad. You’re asking others to not get tight but you also came off hot too. I don’t know what you think aside from what you said and how you say it. That may not be the message you want to communicate but that’s the message you are. Your intent is not equalling your impact rn. If people had assumed the worse I don’t think people would even bother trying to address the issue. I sure af wouldn’t. And yeah you may have read some stuff but we can always read more especially if you’re really trying to have a dialogue. Some of the stuff said and comments liked and the hostility is not conducive to the conversation your trying to have.
@@alanam.8018 Again you are not addressing what I specifically said, you are twisting it into how you received it and your are entitled to how you feel about it but again your interpretation is not my perspective. I was upset because people wasn't listening to what I was actually saying but just interpreted it as hateful and judgemental. And specifically speaking, I said I wasn't going to watch Kat blaque or whoever not because I didn't think she had anything to offer but again that was people dismissing me and what I was saying and brushing it off as ignorant banter and just assuming. Again that something I think you took out of context as "I just didn't want to be bothered with hearing a different perspective" but people can't just say "oh he sounds like he's ignorant to trans ppl so I'm gonna just tell him to go watch a UA-camr" , as if that addresses that concerns that I was making... It didn't. Plus, I have watched her and others like her so again what am I actually watching her for? Am I just supposed to watch all of her videos? I guess we are just going to have to agree to disagree on this because I really just don't understand your perspective. Quote me on something I said that you felt was problematic and perhaps we can go from there but if you are just going to make a blanket subjective generalization about my stance this convo this is nothing more that how you feel vs how I feel which at the end of the day is just a matter of opinion. Just like people felt like you, there are just as many people that feel like I do. That doesn't make one vs the other more justified nor do I feel that it equates to the disparagement of trans people.
@@AfrikanHairGod So an example is “We can’t talk about trans people but they want to be in the same community as me” what did you mean by that bc again I can assume you weren’t trying to be transphobic but other people can as well. Same with you liking these comments talking about how trans women shouldn’t be in women’s sports but the comment says “men shouldn’t be in women’s sports” that’s implying that trans women are men and yeah I can assume you and the comment weren’t trying to be transphobic buuut you also can’t. And how many times can you give someone the benefit of the doubt in a stance that hurts you?That’s all I’m trying to say. Someone calling me a man because I’m a lesbian would make me want to pop shit too. I’m just saying you could extend some sympathy rather than being caught up in how people are saying it but again I’m in school for psychology so I have to take people being rude to me all day and help them regardless. And on the topic of feelings and opinions, a lot of the feelings and options shared and some of these perspectives are not based in fact. There’s science backing up what trans people are saying and there’s science showing the psychological harm of the things people who don’t view themselves as transphobic but still say. That’s why I’m even saying this bc honestly outside of class and my career I’m just trying to have a good time.
Where did you get me liking these comments? Once again you are not taking a statement that I actually made... You are taking your INTERPRETATION from me liking a comment that wasn't my own and trying to cosign me to it. That is exactly what I mean.... That doesn't necessarily mean that agree with everything that comment stated, just that there are valid points that liked or felt that was relevant. And No I don't feel like trans people should compete against cis gender individuals... The science as you refer to backs up that there are many biological advantages for trans woman against cis-women that give them a distinct unfair advantage. You ever notice how the trans men never have this issue brought up against them competing against cis-men? It's because statistically they aren't able to dominate them in the way that trans women do in women's sports. With people trying to be fair by allowing them to compete, they are being unfair to those cis individuals, specifically in regards to women... There's a reason that men don't box against women they are 2 different classes of strength and physicality. That doesn't just go away because you transition and that's not something we should just ignore.
@@MissBabyCake you must be new here. No its not the last one and I'm no stranger to discussing LGBT topics. If you don't like it don't watch or don't bother mentioning it
I support the trans community. I don’t really care what people do with their lives as long as their happy and aren’t harming others. However, that doesn’t mean I agree or have to agree with everything the trans community advocates for. Unfortunately in today’s social climate, people have created an atmosphere that you have to walk on egg shells in & can’t question or challenge someone’s ideas because they’re apart of a disadvantaged community and this makes it very hard to have an honest and open dialogue without someone being in their feelings or being called a bigot.
You don’t have to walk on eggshells that’s a defense mechanism that forms when someone is challenging your thoughts, views, feelings or identity. Marginalized communities are asking people that are more privilege than them to educate themselves on ideas, subjects or laws that concern them. If a person enters a conversation and they haven’t done the work, they cannot control whether what they say is bigoted or not. That is for the person on the receiving end to decide. If a person doesn’t do the work they’re going to say something offensive. If a person is truly interested in being an ally or supporting a community, they have to do the work. If a person doesn’t agree with someone existence, their truth or their protection they shouldn’t say that they do just to feel good about themselves. Ally ship is transparent. If you didn’t know trans people are loosing their lives to bigotry and hatred. Black trans women in particular at a disturbing rate. So when people talk about trans issues, they’re passionate. Lives are at stake, literally.
@@chezzmix to regard i or any one else who challenges the some of the ideas within the trans community as ‘uneducated’ or simply bigoted is a fallacy within itself. Not allowing people to express their valid & differing opinions leaves no space to discuss a honest and truthful dialogue that the trans community claims they’re open to having. Its easy to write someone off as ‘uneducated’ & bigoted when you never intended on making an effort to listen to their piece & be challenged, its discrediting someones point of view simply because it challenges your own. The idea that i have to shut up & just accept any and all rhetoric from a marginalized community to be considered a true ally is overall sketchy.
on another note, not to be nit picky but you’re exaggerating the violence that black trans women experience. if you’re measuring the amount of ‘privilege’ a marginalized community has over another simply based on the disproportionate amount of violence & deaths that one community experiences in comparison to the other(s), then by your own logic i, as a cis black woman certainly do not have more privilege than a trans woman. On average about 20 black trans women are killed A YEAR while every 20 or so HOURS a cis gendered black woman is killed. in fact, its this very exact dangerous and violent rhetoric in particular that claims cis gendered black women have exponentially ‘more privilege’ than trans Black women is what i have the biggest gripe with when it comes to the trans community & is simply not something i can get behind and cosign because thats simply not what statistics or any factual data reflects. Im never going to agree to erasing the plight & violence that cis black women experience to support the plight of another marginalized community. However, that doesn’t mean I’m not an ally or supporter of the trans community and instead of withdrawing my support for such violent rhetoric (because i am a true ally), Ive decided to challenge it in hopes to have a dialogue where cis black women & trans black women can critique, educate & correct one another & not diminish each others plight.
@@yauri3569 You didn’t take in anything I said and you don’t want to, so I’m going to meet you where you are. It is what is. The second paragraph...I will not digest any of your bigotry, racism or transphobia. What I said was reasonable. You’re clearly not interested in a dialogue nor prepared to have one. You’re not seeking understanding nor a positive position, you want to be anti. I’m not here to change your mind.
@@chezzmix you did nothing but prove my point lol. Deeming anything that challenges & goes against your rhetoric as transphobia and bigotry. You claimed that trans women were dying at an exponentially high & disproportionate rate & that i had more privilege due to this but when i corrected you & gave you facts to refute your claims you label it as transphobic lol. The reality is, you cant argue or disprove anything i said so now you’re salty & have nothing to resort to but petty name calling lol.
@@chezzmix and racism?? Im a black woman. If you actually took the time to read the second paragraph you’d understand i was speaking from a nuanced perspective as cis black woman.
Its really interesting how you accuse me of not being interested in having an open dialogue when you yourself couldn’t be interested enough to make an effort to fully comprehend & understand my perspective. This is the hypocrisy many people are referring to when it comes to the trans community...On that note, be blessed!
Happy you watch the Derrick dude video. I'm far too impatient to watch it on my own so I just go with the memes. lol I stopped in the first few seconds once I realized he was talking about himself in 3rd mfn person. "Derrick Jackson cheated" instead of "I cheated." Weirdo.
Someone said she looks too basic for him, but he's the one who asked her on a date then proposed to her. Ain't nothing basic about her, all those IG models look the same if you remove the makeup, wig, eyelashes and waist trainers. He looks like a 4 at best. Just because he works out does not mean he's hot. Everybody can lift weight.
Exactly!! All those IG models with the same basic look (thick poorly stenciled eyebrows, obvious-wigs with annoying baby hairs everywhere, centipede eyelashes) are the real basic ones. His wife is beautiful. Because she doesn’t follow the tacky crowd she’s basic! FOH!!!
@@poshchamp9210 a lot of them see the same surgeons and go for the same aesthetics when it comes to facial enhancements too. It’s bizarre.
To be honest they have been together for 12 years have kids but only got married 2 yrs ago. He cheated a yr after marriage.
@@adwoamk8918
Most likely was cheating during the whole relationship. There were others.
@@poshchamp9210 you can be upset with the husband and uplift the wife without taking out a whole group of women and calling them tacky. it's not the IG models fault that this man was unfaithful. He's just a clown. As much as I agree that everyone looks the same, who are we to tell these women they can't be who they wanna be

Thank you but I'm no stranger to trans people or trans issues. I used to follow a number of trans people on UA-cam just to expose myself to their struggles in life. I've watch a number of documentaries but most of them don't paint a full picture. I have clients that are trans and I have had intimate conversations with them about their life, transition, self identity and more. I've done as you say and that's why I say what I say not the ramblings of someone ignorant and confused but as someone who as listened to the words and plight of trans people.
@@AfrikanHairGod Thanks for answering however I had to post this comment in two parts because my comment was deleted multiple times. It's sad honestly because after you have done all you say you have done you still got so many things wrong regarding trans issues. I remember listening to you tell your story about being a gay person on a bus and how damn near everyone on the bus treated you badly simply for being a gay Black man trying to live. Yet you agreed with someone in this comment section disrespecting trans people by speaking about them in a ugly way simply because trans kids want to participate in sports. So much of this thinking turns into laws which govern the way in which trans have to live. They are on that same bus simply trying to live.
@@jessicanoneyah9938 I never judged trans people nor said they were wrong for being and living their life how they see fit. Don't create a negative conjecture to change the narrative to suit your means and diminish what I said. You also can't marginalize another group of people just to validate your feelings. Stop trying to compare my experience with being judged, discriminated, and ostracized as a gay man to try to make false equivalencies. LISTEN TO WHAT THE HELL I SAID and stop making my words out to what y'all want it to be! You and everyone else keep trying to shift my words into anti-trans or transphobic speech but that's not what I said at all. This is part of the reason that we can't have a conversation about this because y'all hear what y'all want to hear and not what I actually said.
I tried not to watch second vid. Here u are
That religious girl sounds like my "friend" who decided that I was unworthy of her presence after I came out over 20 years ago. These overly religious people sound deranged to me. It's brainwashed, cult like behavior. I say that as someone who was raised in the church (but later came to my senses), and who still has family members who believe this kind of stuff. They claim to be about love, but when you really listen you realize most of what they say is fear based. Do exactly what we say, or you'll spend eternity in a lake of fire. And of course they always claim the lord sent them to tell you something, they're a soldier for the lord, etc. Nope, I'm good over here.
This is been much of my experience as well.
Everything you said regarding the wyte lady and the adopted daughter I agree with. And the black lady reacting was extra and annoying. Please keep giving a honest reaction.
The way you feel about Travell is the way I feel about Deeper Than Hair. Her videos are all the same.
At this point it is. Everyone says it's because she doesn't do hair full time and I can see that part of it but they do literally do the same thing in every single video
Right, I would like to see variety. Especially if you're a hair care professional who says that you can do all kinds of styling. Unless, that's all their audience's like to see. Now, if that's the case then they must have very repetitive viewers that are boring af? Show me more please, that's how I'm like.🙄🙄🤔
@@AfrikanHairGod I actually went to the salon recently I go again in a week. She seems to just stop by occasionally and does hair for the channel the actual person there all the time is named Ashley. From what I seen it’s Ashley’s managing the Philly location under the creator idk how it works. But they definitely do other stuff there. Maybe it’s because covid less staff working in one place.
So I missed the initial discussion about the trans topic but I’ll give my opinion. I recently watched a video by a trans woman who was degrading black woken and calling us “black bitches” and saying how masculine women look and men didn’t want black bitches that’s why they creep with trans women. I was so confused, because she was sitting there trying to look like the women she was calling black bitches 🙄 when people have questions and want to be educated trans ppl get offended and don’t want to educate people but it’s the same thing with people who want you to be more spiritual but don’t want to help you on your journey. It’s just weird trans people gate keep their community but get offended when you want to be educated.
I gotta thank you for teaching me about playback speed for hair videos 😂. Really helps get you through the chats and the extra instead of just doing their hair. Especially when all I came for is to see how they arranged/measured the parts 🙃.
I was like, “how did I miss the live!?” Then I remembered I got my wisdom teeth pulled when it streamed 😩🤣
I hope you are feeling much better now
I almost made it to the end 😫. This video was very diverse!!
It always cracks me up when they END where they STARTED. Then I get sad..they aren't educated on how awesome and versatile our/their own hair is!
Video 1 IG Video: "I am not here to play games or play dress-up." Me: uh, okay sure.
This is a sickness.
Really enjoyed your stream last night. Thank you. You don’t understand how you make people feel and how much joy your bring literally just being you and making all of us laugh. So thanks again.
😭❤️😭❤️Thank you so much!
Derrick made a career based on a foundation of lies.
i was thinking the same thing. There is nothing wrong with her posting a video showing how she takes care of her daughters natural afro textured hair. The problem like always is the fact that they don't give credit where they know it is do. So she just came up with all of this on her own when she doesn't even have that hair type. Gurlllll bye😂😂😂It's really sad all the ass kissing and praising like damn okay where she learn it from though?😂🤣She did her research cool but where she get it from?
People started detangling with rinse-outs before deep conditioners because of popular UA-camrs (like Nap85). The only part about Mo’s video I disagree with is being able to detangle after a shampoo ‘because you just are’ lol.
That’s how I got in the habit of doing prepoo detangling. It’s not that I can’t detangle after a shampoo, it just takes significantly longer since I always clarify, which makes my hair shrink on top of having shed hair trapped in there.
Personally I’d just rather deal with shed hair and shrinkage separately than at the same time. So she can keep that, glad it works for her tho.
Great live stream as always😊!!! Lovin🖤 the new stream features, getting all fancy on us lol... great to hear your hands are doing much better and you're getting adjusted to your new diet and slimming down 🙌🏾!!!

Narada... 1. I'm just catching up...2. Imma need you to narrate more videos when the music is a problem. It was at the moment when you said "Get into these mf curls. Get into it, " my drink MAY HAVE went flying.
I don't even know what made me do it but I just might do that
I watched you when I was younger and have tuned in on just about all of your watch parties. They have been comforting, fun and educational. But as of late, Trans women’s identities are debated ad nauseam on this forum and it’s been dismaying.
It is cool that you’ve done the work to better understand Trans people. Until seeing your responses to comments here, I would not have known that you have taken personal time to learn. It would be helpful to see what you have learned reflected in how you discuss Trans people with the community here for a possibly fruitful discourse.
It’s disappointing and intellectually dishonest that questions are posed in the place of opinions. If there is an honest question, let’s take the time as a community to look up the answer. Doing so in other instances has not been an issue before. For instance, how various permanents work on hair have been looked up on multiple streams for shared understanding. It’d be the same effort for specific questions regarding Trans women.
In the live comment section (I am not saying you are responsible for what your viewers comment), I noticed that there are assertions/opinions that may be based on misinformation, stereotypes and/or just blatant disrespect that furthers the marginalization, violence and death that many Trans women experience. It’s not just a simple matter of agreeing or disagreeing because most people understand that people are gonna think what they want to think and accept that fact. I see people going further than that: trying to have a dialogue with each other to shed light on how and why certain assertions people make are harmful towards Trans women. And many are reading to respond and not to actually engage in honest discourse. They just want to say their opinions without facing reproach. But here’s the thing: many of these opinions are the majority of thought in the Western world regarding Trans identities. It’s colonial hegemony at work. Trans identities are not new and many predate the Western colonialization of indigenous sovereignties. However, many of us do not know this until we are made aware of it. And even then, the fear of disillusionment, cognitive dissonance and/or being uncomfortable with “being wrong” makes it easy for people to be resistant to challenging their prejudices. Learning is not always comfortable. It can be icky at times and that’s okay. It’s a part of the process but it shouldn’t come at the expense of person’s humanity.
Not all marginalized identities are oppressed in the same way but many of those identities do intersect for individuals. The exhaustion of being expected to defend one’s identity shouldn’t be lost on anyone here. It’s othering and dehumanizing. We can always challenge ourselves to know more before holding steadfast to feelings/opinions we have about the personhood of others.
In the interest of genuine discourse, I further support the suggestions others have made for there to be individuals of various Trans identities who would be comfortable talk about their lived experiences and how those experiences are shaped by commonly held assertions and opinions.

Years ago, a straight white coworker asked me if I could fall in love with a trans because he knew that I was gay. I told him no because I am not a lesbian. LMAO!
Yeah I hate when people try to call trans people or trans-attracted people gay for the exact reason you stated. Trans is not synonymous with gay and to say it is blurs the lines and meaning of homosexuality.
@@vintagespade8351 "Gay" is not actually a precise technical term. A slang word that refers to "homosexuals" but is usually designated for men who have sex with men. Trans are not necessarily bisexual because they identify as the opposite sex that they were born into and may or may not be attracted to the opposite sex. From what I understand, there are a small number of gay, and bisexuals who are attracted to trans people. And trans people can be attracted to other trans. This is why we use the umbrella term: LGBTQT
@Freyja Noire They can be bi and still have hetero sex tho.
Her styles look like what black moms do. I thought she put her own twist on the style?
2:16:57
Ok but how is it the stylist I went to who specializes in "curly hair" used high lift red color and my shit came out looking like Ronald Mcdonald? My goal was Kaice Alea(we should watch one of her vids btw) and I showed her pics. Now, my hair is very dark brown, not black and it's fine but still, how could it lift that much?

Another great live as usual. The Derrick Jaxson part was really funny because I wasn’t expecting you to watch it. You have people like Kevin Samuels, Mediocre Tutorials & Reviews, etc who make videos explaining how Derrick Jaxson is a fraud but black women (his target audience) didn’t believe him. It’s funny that the truth has come out. Narada, I also think that if you decide to do another stream about transgender see if it’s possible to connect with someone and bring them on the stream with you. I say that because it seems like people don’t want you to have a say in the conversation since you’re not transgender (which is crazy) but maybe if you bring a guest on it might help cut the tension. I’m not sure if it will just speculating. Although we might not like talking about controversial things we still need to have these discussions in order to move forward.
KS is a fraud himself, of course he can recognize another fraud like him 😂😂
@@LoXena whether he is a fraud or not doesn’t really matter and wasn’t my point. All I’m saying is that other people have exposed Derrick Jaxson as well but people couldn’t see the truth.
People love to hear what they want to hear - that’s why so many women were fooled by DJ. It shocked me to see that people were surprised he cheated and was full of it. Look at him. Listen to him. He’s like a slimy preacher who is selling a dream of a perfect black man. 🙄
I’d love to hear from DJs ex supporters to hear why they listened to him and why they sent this man money.
@@spacecase7566 exactly and I would love to hear it too. Also the dream that he’s selling wasn’t even ideal because he had a lot of women to believe that they can get any men they want when it doesn’t work that way. Women control access to sex while men control if they want to date/ propose to you. It’s that simple 🤷🏽♀️. Lol I’m just enjoying that he’s been exposed so that the women can finally get the truth.
Derek Jackson did not lie. He just didn’t practice what he preaches.
Just wanted to comment that 2 of Christi Gior's daughters are black and the other 2 are white. One of the black daughters is a set of twins and the twin is a brother.

I love you, Narada, but the trans community should not have to withstand disrespect from those who need education. Most trans people have no problem explaining their identity and all that comes with it- however, using slurs like the T-word and "IT" are simply non-starters. Why defend your right to disrespect someone while demanding they educate you? The math ain't mathing. A lot of people disguise their disrespect as needing to be "educated" when in reality, they led with slurs and NOT the questions. It is OUR responsibility to learn how to love and respect people of all backgrounds. It's not their job to teach us how to be less horrible while we're actively being horrible toward them.
I'm not condoning any disrespect of anyone, nor was I requiring anyone to get on and provide education... She asked me the question and I was addressing her. I opened the floor to everyone in the live chat because they had so much to say and I felt that they could offer a different perspective in the dialogue and I also didn't want to specifically speak for the trans community when we had individuals of that demographic in the chat. The issue of her use of the term it was addressed in the live stream in question. The various uses of all the different pronouns really does confuse her but I did inform her that using that term to refer to any person is insulting and disrespectful. Again, I didn't expect anyone to get on and school anyone... Her question was directed to me as we have these types of convos all the time. I'm not sure where or how but for some reason everyone thought that I wanted trans people to get on and defend themselves that wasn't my intention and I didn't need them to.

For real
There’s so much I could say, but I just don’t understand why so many people are set on coming AT you instead of adding to the trans convo when you’ve welcomed the convo plenty of times. How can we have an understanding of an issue/ person if we immediately get shut down and called transphobic, etc. We will never get anywhere in the world as people because now the new thing is to call someone a hater and -phobic
You want to be open to ask questions about trans people and their issues and when your followers are giving you trans content creator (WHO CAN ANSWER THOSE QUESTIONS) you say "nah why dont y'all tell me what the trans youtuber are saying". Want to be educated but also wants to be spoon fed the info
Okay since you want to go there.. . What questions was I actually asking that I needed her to answer? I was having a discussion not trying to learn about trans people. Everyone couldn't argue against anything that I said but instead decided to just dismiss what I was saying and just tell me to go watch Kat Blaque. I know of her and have watch her on and off over the years. I have studied gender and sexual diversity for years in college, had a series years ago talking about it, actually spoke to trans individuals in intimate detail but how exactly am I asking to be spoon fed? I've done my research.
Narada there is sooo much information out there about Trans people. If you are truly interested in learning about trans people you can google and UA-cam it just like any other topic. I feel like this is a subject that keeps coming up because you don’t really care about learning about the topic but you have an opinion that is not an educated one. I watch you all the time but when you talk about trans issues/ people I get extremely disappointed. As a member of the LGBTQ community you should know the struggles that our community goes through (I’m a lesbian). There was a time where gay people were thought of in the same way as trans people and still are in some ways, so you should have some understanding about that (especially when you were expressing your feminine side and discovering yourself in your self expression through clothes, jewelry and makeup). People misunderstand you judged you and didn’t care to learn and that I’m sure it was hurtful to you so why do the same to trans people? If you want to talk about trans people do the research first it’s as simple as that, simply throwing out an opinion about something without even trying to learn about it is being willfully ignorant. You are literally treating trans people the way straight people treat gay people or white people treat black people. It makes no sense when we are all apart of the same misunderstood community. People who really want to learn do the research. In your live streams when you want to learn about a product and don’t know you google it, go to the site or open your beauty school book sooo why when you talk about trans people and say “I’m only asking a question or I’m just trying to understand” you NEVER just look it up? You should really think about that. I hope you read this and open your mind because you seem to be closed off to what you already think about trans people and that is really sad.
Y'all are assuming that I'm talking about something I know nothing about. I've researched, watch documentaries, follow and watched trans people on UA-cam and have even spoken in person and in depth with some of my trans clients. Yall don't like my perspective but it's not based on blatant ignorance is based on complete honesty and disclosure. If y'all really listen to my words and not receive it as anti-trans then I think that would be the first step to having an open dialogue. But everyone wants to dismiss and invalidate my stance but don't want to address it
@@AfrikanHairGod honestly your comments and questions come off as uneducated some of the questions you have can be easily answered if it was researched so it’s hard to believe that you have. I think that it could be soo beneficial to do another LGBT panel with some trans people in it. It could be a great way to have an open and honest conversation about the topic that can educate the panel and the viewers. I think it would help a lot I really do.
It doesn't come off as uneducated, I challenge the trans agenda and indoctrination and say what people don't expect me to say. If you listen to the video when we discussed the subject in detail, you see that I'm explaining a lot of things to Henny and the audience regarding trans matters. Also, I never judged any trans people, I merely challenge some of their motives such as attaching the word trans when it's convenient then omitting it at their convenience. And my biggest issue is some them trying to equate their experience to that of their biological counterpart. They try to justify this based on their own internal feelings and if that's how you feel I'm not gonna take that away from you, but you also can't expect everyone to agree or go along with that just because you say so. People don't like or understand me as a gay man and that's their prerogative but I chose to use my platform to speak, share, and educate. People are not obligated to accept me as I am or how I want them to, so long as they don't disrespect me or cause me any harm.
@@AfrikanHairGod thank you for doing so because any commentary that runs counter to the current accepted discourse is deemed as "*phobic/uneducated". That is false. This landscape has changed so much since the aughts so for people to assume that you’ve never educated yourself by now is ridiculous.
@@AfrikanHairGod 💯
With all due respect, I think you are wrong for the way you’ve handled talking about trans issues and I say this as a cis Black lesbian woman. I’m going to preface with I’m getting my PhD in psychology and I specifically study trauma and oppression so I’m saying this as someone trying to educate and advocate. It’s really unfair how you and some of the people in the chat where coming for trans people for voicing that they weren’t happy with what was happening and saying that it was transphobic. Because some of what was said and the opinions that were shared were truly transphobic factually. I know everyone wants to be entitled to their opinion but your opinion can be based in ignorance and/or factually incorrect. You don’t have to “walk on eggshells” you should say what you feel but if that rubs people the wrong way and/or is incorrect well it is what it is. Just like racists and homophobes say “well I don’t have a people with Black people or the lbgt” but then they say some shit that’s opposite to what the previous statement (and before someone goes and types “but that’s not the same!!!” I know. It’s called an analogy) We’ve seen Narada call it out several times and clapback at people (rightfully so) but suddenly it’s not okay if it’s trans people? I think it’s important for everyone to really think about why they’re much more concerned the reaction of hurt trans people rather than the fact they’re hurt and what we can do to make it better. If the logic is “those trans people should be nicer if you want people to support you” 1) you were never an ally in the first place 2) this is the same logic other oppressors use we’ve seen it all summer. I know it’s nice to say “well I support everyone” but if you dig deep and you really don’t believe in the cause? Well say that. And face the music. I know you said you wanted to be educated but at the same time say well no I’m not watching the trans UA-camrs probably in anger but that and Henny calling people “it” I can see why people reacted the way they did. I really do enjoy you and your content so I’m saying this to try to get you and your followers to see a different perspective. We’re all works in progress but we can make an effort to be better to each other.
The problem with this comment along with the others is that y'all aren't addressing any the things that I said. Yall are attaching your own interpretations to it but not the true meaning behind my words. Again like I said before and like I keep saying you and everyone else just wants to brush my words off and label it as transphobic or harmful.... Okay, why not instead have a conversation about my statements, why you deemed it as transphobic and why I feel that it's not. Yall are saying all of these things and making all of these assumptions but not one of you has ASKED me anything. Asked me why I feel the way I feel, why I said the things I said, or even asked me if I had already exposed myself to various resources about trans people or trans issues. I keep vying for constructive dialogue and conversation but all y'all keep trying to do is deconstruct my statements in a way that is not reflective of my message. Don't put words in my mouth... Don't assume the worst about what I said. Ask me!
@@AfrikanHairGod I did address what you said though. People have been trying to address it but there’s so much push back about the label of being transphobic. Even in the live you and others got upset and when others tried to elaborate you still got mad. You’re asking others to not get tight but you also came off hot too. I don’t know what you think aside from what you said and how you say it. That may not be the message you want to communicate but that’s the message you are. Your intent is not equalling your impact rn. If people had assumed the worse I don’t think people would even bother trying to address the issue. I sure af wouldn’t. And yeah you may have read some stuff but we can always read more especially if you’re really trying to have a dialogue. Some of the stuff said and comments liked and the hostility is not conducive to the conversation your trying to have.
@@alanam.8018 Again you are not addressing what I specifically said, you are twisting it into how you received it and your are entitled to how you feel about it but again your interpretation is not my perspective. I was upset because people wasn't listening to what I was actually saying but just interpreted it as hateful and judgemental. And specifically speaking, I said I wasn't going to watch Kat blaque or whoever not because I didn't think she had anything to offer but again that was people dismissing me and what I was saying and brushing it off as ignorant banter and just assuming. Again that something I think you took out of context as "I just didn't want to be bothered with hearing a different perspective" but people can't just say "oh he sounds like he's ignorant to trans ppl so I'm gonna just tell him to go watch a UA-camr" , as if that addresses that concerns that I was making... It didn't. Plus, I have watched her and others like her so again what am I actually watching her for? Am I just supposed to watch all of her videos? I guess we are just going to have to agree to disagree on this because I really just don't understand your perspective. Quote me on something I said that you felt was problematic and perhaps we can go from there but if you are just going to make a blanket subjective generalization about my stance this convo this is nothing more that how you feel vs how I feel which at the end of the day is just a matter of opinion. Just like people felt like you, there are just as many people that feel like I do. That doesn't make one vs the other more justified nor do I feel that it equates to the disparagement of trans people.
@@AfrikanHairGod So an example is “We can’t talk about trans people but they want to be in the same community as me” what did you mean by that bc again I can assume you weren’t trying to be transphobic but other people can as well. Same with you liking these comments talking about how trans women shouldn’t be in women’s sports but the comment says “men shouldn’t be in women’s sports” that’s implying that trans women are men and yeah I can assume you and the comment weren’t trying to be transphobic buuut you also can’t. And how many times can you give someone the benefit of the doubt in a stance that hurts you?That’s all I’m trying to say. Someone calling me a man because I’m a lesbian would make me want to pop shit too. I’m just saying you could extend some sympathy rather than being caught up in how people are saying it but again I’m in school for psychology so I have to take people being rude to me all day and help them regardless. And on the topic of feelings and opinions, a lot of the feelings and options shared and some of these perspectives are not based in fact. There’s science backing up what trans people are saying and there’s science showing the psychological harm of the things people who don’t view themselves as transphobic but still say. That’s why I’m even saying this bc honestly outside of class and my career I’m just trying to have a good time.
Where did you get me liking these comments? Once again you are not taking a statement that I actually made... You are taking your INTERPRETATION from me liking a comment that wasn't my own and trying to cosign me to it. That is exactly what I mean.... That doesn't necessarily mean that agree with everything that comment stated, just that there are valid points that liked or felt that was relevant. And No I don't feel like trans people should compete against cis gender individuals... The science as you refer to backs up that there are many biological advantages for trans woman against cis-women that give them a distinct unfair advantage. You ever notice how the trans men never have this issue brought up against them competing against cis-men? It's because statistically they aren't able to dominate them in the way that trans women do in women's sports. With people trying to be fair by allowing them to compete, they are being unfair to those cis individuals, specifically in regards to women... There's a reason that men don't box against women they are 2 different classes of strength and physicality. That doesn't just go away because you transition and that's not something we should just ignore.
from a convo on sew-ins to one on the trans community? huh....
It's not the first time it's happened lol
@@AfrikanHairGod yikes .... hopes it becomes the last cuz this was cringe
@@MissBabyCake you must be new here. No its not the last one and I'm no stranger to discussing LGBT topics. If you don't like it don't watch or don't bother mentioning it
Not new at all but def leaving - thanks 🤗
