Trans people are human beings and we should honor that humanity.
sounds almost too easy to do
The fact that this has to be stated 😥
Why identify as trans, just be human
@@imjustamerican don't bring common sense to the conversation
"Be open to what doesn't make sense to you, making sense to somebody else." I love that!
That's a quote to keep
Wise words to live by.
As a Black woman , I love that!
Obio I have to say that you consistently bring good discourse. I find a lot of LGBT content creators fall into the laziness of one dimensional conversations about gender roles and who's a top and who's a bottom and other elementary things, but you always provide a variety of perspectives and topics and there is usually a gem or a nugget to be found. I especially love that this is coming from a black gay content creator. Let's celebrate that - keep up the good work. I find myself thinking where is he finding these people, where are they hiding?
I am so happy to finally see and hear a black transperson who is a person and not a typical stereotype of a transperson. I am a black transwoman born and raised in South Louisiana who transitioned over thirty years ago and always wondered where my people were. Thank you I see you.
I'm right here.. in South Louisiana
I attended Alabama State w Hope and she was the reason I was soooo confident walking around campus and wondered what she was up to when I left. Amazing episode !!
Trans people are people and their trans identity is valid. Period.
Btw, I got much love for you and Hope. Love to see y’all together.
As a young gay man who didn't know much about trans people but was always curious to know more this was very informative and educational ❤️ thank you I thoroughly enjoyed this
Every person who Obio interviews, is so well spoken and has a motivational massage attached, it's kinda dope.
I truly appreciate this episode I will never claim to know everything about anything I don’t even know everything about myself! I say that to say it felt good getting a different perspective on the trans experience and giving a little bit of information about it! Keep creating space!!!
As a black trans woman I appreciate u for having this conversation big dawg! Thanks
Very insightful! Middle-aged black gay man here and enjoy hearing perspectives from people who have walked in the shoes of whatever experience is being discussed.
she's beautiful and speaks well ! give us more more more...
I love that you have these conversations, Obio.
Thank you for this!!! it’s confident trans women like her that make me less scared to come out & transition.
You always have the BEST guests on, Obio. I look forward to new episodes every week. Thank you for continuing to create space!
As trans woman I really enjoying this pod!
This is REALNESSSSSS
I’ve sooo been waiting for this duo on this channel ❤
Great convo....thanks!!!
Wow, I loved this conversation. Obio continue to have more guests on your show like this. Amazing discourse
Yo I’ve been following both of you individually for a couple years now and love you both. I loved the conversation🥰🥰
Identity is a construct. Resonate with dignity in this life and the next.
Do You Have A Patreon W/ Longer Videos? This Interview Deserves At Least 30-45 Mins... Ill Even Take Longer Than That! I Love Hope... She Has SO Much To Say And Offer!
Loved all of this!
Hope!!!!!!!! I love Hope!!!!
Also, she is stunning. What a classy lady. 💕
She looks amazing no cap
I thoroughly enjoyed this conversation!
Absolutely beautiful conversation! Wow! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
She's really pretty❤️
I love some Hope G!!!
I love Hope. she has such a powerful presence and energy!
GREAT interview 😊👏👏
I remember a conversation with Avery good friend. He asked if there was anything I wanted to tell him. I replied, "Is there anything you want to ask me?"
Sure, I'm gay. But it's not my responsibility to come out to YOU. Because once I do, there's no taking it back.
I can lie my entire life. MY choice.
But coming out means much more than a casual conversation.
Hope Giselle always gives the proper conversation
Love this dynamic 🤎
Started off dropping gems already! CAN I GET THROUGH THE FIRST MINUTE? 😂😂😂❤❤❤
I’m glad she mentioned transracialism. If one can change their gender (social construct) or sex, they can change their race (also a social construct).
Race is not a social construct.
@@gamer1X12 Oh really? You’re going to have a hard time proving that one!
@@xamanbro826 Im not. Its basic biology. Some people are brown, some people are pale. There are genetic and biological differences from one ancestral group to another. Now, does that mean we should treat others inherently better or worse? No. Does that mean some groups are inferior to others? No. Does different = bad? No! But to say race is a social construct is just incredible naive not to mention objectively false. Now, how people are treated based on race, racial and ethnic cultures and traditions, etc. yes, THAT is social construct, but race itself is not socially constructed.
@@gamer1X12 Hey! So i think i understand what your trying to say but here's a different perspective. There are more sure differences among the races, as you mentioned with skin complexion. It would be naive to say it doesn't. Those differences happened for a reason. Africans tended to live in more humid areas and had wider nostrils and Europeans tended to live in arid, cold, dry climates and had smaller nostrils. So don't get me wrong there a CLEAR physiological variations among the races, and even the races themselves. However, the concept of race was created within the last hundred years to create an explanation for racist ideologies. For example, in the late 1800's American Paleontologists would lften draw the skulls of human beings. Normal right? However, they'd draw the white skulls larger than the black, asian, and native American skulls. This was a subliminal message of whites having bigger brains. So while yes there are differences, the concept of race ITSELF was made up to justify anything and everything that was to blame for mass atrocities. Additional, like you said, racism is still a real thing even if rave isn't real. Thanks!
Sex is not a social construct!
Typed in Hope’s name into the search bar because I was trying to find this vid and it was just a bunch of haters making videos about her ‘fooling’ Dr. Umar 🙄 this stuff makes me so scared about transitioning, will not lie, but people like Hope give me strength
I adore her.
omg I love Hope!!
I'm transsexual but still wear men clothes. People assume they're women's clothes. I also haven't had and procedures. Still grow facial hair, although I hate it. I've been on hormones for 4 years. Some people assume correctly and can tell I'm trans. Others who don't know will say whatever. Sir, him, he, she. Sometimes people intentionally say sir. I don't get mad, because it is what it is. However I don't like when people are intentionally rude. Some people think I'm lesbian. I get hit on by all kinds of men, st8, gay, bi and trans attracted.
I love this conversation and he is so handsome ❤
Yes I love Hope!!!!
love y'all
Well said...!!!!
This was so phenomenal. She’s phenomenal. I found myself mesmerized by her. She’s beautiful. More importantly, this was very informative and enlightening. 🥰👌🏾
NewOrleans in the building I am Beautiful Black trans women🏳️⚧️ in the south we people we are human beings we hurt just like everybody else period.
I talked to my friend recently about you, and i went down a list of things about you. How you were so smart and funny, ladadadiddia. Her next question was, “how do you know?” My answer was “I would like to know for sure.”
🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿💯💯💯💯❤❤❤❤
I love Her ❤❤❤

Gender and race is different in regards to trans-ness.
Even if you only consider both in regards to their cultural aspect.
But also DNA MATTERS!
Lol you… do not understand how dna works…
I noticed she used the term “cis assumability.” Obio if you see this, could you ask her if referring to transgender people as “passing” or “passable” is offensive ?
I think that’s what she means given the context of the conversation…
@@galaxylucia1898 that’s absolutely what she means . I’m a just asking does word choice matter ? is one more acceptable than the other?
@@marctee12 oh… honestly I can’t say for sure. Face palm moment: totally didn’t read the entire comment. My bad.
Hopefully other transwomen (& transmen) see your comment to answer. Sorry!
The way the trans community tries to negate the human experience in how our bodies plays a role is just mind boggling!
How?
Also I hope the LGBT+ (ie sex/sexual minorities) stick together.
We already have enough division (not unlike the black community), we don't need additional division.
We can acknowledge our differences without destroying the bonds we and our ancestors built.
Cause like (ie similar to) what hope said, they basically look at us all the same. So they might start attacking the trans gurls, but trust they coming for the rest as well!!!
I don't think we can pretend sex, sexuality and gender isn't as "intimately" entwined as they are.
@@slickandslaycious6579 Are you claiming gay men are women? This is the problem with having trans-identified people in the community. We can't have straight people or self-hating homosexuals injecting their beliefs in "gender" in our activsm.
Serious Question, how can we NEVER see elderly Trans? Like, out and about having brunch with their girlfriends? Or any in media.
You probably see trans folks all time. Not all Trans-people look “trans”. I have a couple of friends that people were surprised are trans because they didn’t look “trans”.
@@alwaysarcastic that's cool! but if you will, please name me 5 of them that are elderly that you know that are on SM, i would like to look them up.
@@yaboysix Very few elderly people are on sm. Heck I'm 45 and I avoid sm like the plague. Older generations tend to value and protect their privacy.
@@yaboysix You can look them up yourself. There’s Caitlin Jenner in her 70s. Chaz Bono is in his 50s. Laverne Cox is 50. Marsha P. Johnson (suspicious death). Wachowski sisters (50s). There’s more. You have to remember that trans people don’t live as long due to bullying, discrimination and harassment. The ones that are elderly aren’t on social media just like any other elderly folks. Additionally LGBTQ+ people aren’t always open on Social Media because as you may have heard from celebrities, once they’ve come out, they lose roles. Most are working behind the cameras now. As I’ve said earlier, you may be around people that are trans and not know it because they don’t look like they’ve transitioned. Here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_transgender_people. Remember not everyone is on Social Media. My mother and father aren’t on any social media. UA-cam is my only SM and I’m in my 30s.
A lot of the mothers on the ballroom scene are older . I wouldn’t call them elderly but they are some of the oldest that I know are trans
The “T”was added because trans people felt left out of “LGB” and demanded inclusion.
I believe coming out is informing people of an aspect of your humanity that may otherwise be unknown or assumed. It is neither asking for permission or consent to be who you are.
The can demand whatever the want, they don't belong in the community. The community is not for exclusive straight people or gay people trying to look like the opposite sex out of homophobia.
@@m_a_l_f_o_y Thankfully, you don’t get to determine who is or is not in the community.
@@stephenwilliams3230 I got to get me out years ago. If you accept fetishistic crossdressers in it, you'll accept the "scary P". I don't want to be responsible for your crap.
But if you really look it, everyone is in the lgbtq community even straights. We just like ending it at lgbtq lol
Babygirl at the end the day you are fuckin beautiful luv u MA do you
Rachele Dolezal did nothing wrong, lol ok
Not Hope Giselle! 😂😂😂 #UmarJohnson #FoxSoul
Well the way I look at it... Regardless of these people saying they were born in the wrong body..... That's crazy as hell.... God doesn't make mistakes..... You still is a boy or man..... What ever you were born as??? You will die that. Man or Woman 👠..... How I look at it a lot of people are playing Dress up.... Performing 🎭 giving us a Show. Period.
Prove God doesn’t make mistakes.
God is not real please stop.
Thought that was Steve lacy
She looks nothing like hubby
@@willarroz6703 🤣🤣🤣
🤨🧐🧐🧐They are both two beautiful black people, but Steve Lacy is a totally different person… unless you’re trolling and just tryna be messy…😒
I LOVE YOU OBO YOU POSTED THIS VIDEO AT THE RIGHT TIME BECAUSE I FEEL LIKE TRANS WOMEN CELEBRATE HALLOWEEN EVERYDAY OUT OF THE YEAR 🛑🛑🛑😁🫢✂️⚫
