I've been on T for a over two years now but I watched your videos pre-t to help me get through. I've never never written a comment before but I need you to know how much I appreciate your videos for helping me get through only the beginning of my life.
I really appreciate this video. I am at the point in my life where I want a change but all those changes are also scary. Thank you for showing me that I am not alone in those fears.
Aiden out of all the people I watch on RU-vid. you are the most inspiring and down to earth. you have helped me begin to work on my habits and to exercise for a more male body before I go on hrt. you really help me think hard about my life and push me to be better. thank you.
Hey I know this video was made waaayyy back in 2014 but I was 16 then and it's now that I've seen it. I'm struggling with whether I want HRT and I'm really glad that you've made this video. I know a trans guy and he was always sure of what he wanted and I kinda felt like my unsureness meant I might not be, well, "trans enough." I'm really glad to see that there are other trans people who were/are unsure, too. Thank you.
I felt the same way with the first reason. I'd dealt with my body and existence for so long that I just chalked it up to so many factors before the light bulb came on for me. When I went in to see the therapist I felt so dumb because I felt I needed to meet all these "guidelines" from what I've heard from other transmen and I was so freaked out she would deny me because I didn't play with the right toys or something.
i will start in october with the hrt, and i´m nervous. OMG! my whole life i knew i was trans. almost for 40 years. I thought it will never come to this, but now i got my letters and i even got a date for my top surgery. a dream came true! everything is so concrete but i´m scared to do the wrong thing.(?!) than i am happy and a few days later i´m totally scared... happy, happy, scared, happy.... its an emotional roller coaster.
I felt like a guy ever since I was little, I still have fears about going on. I have fears about losing my hair. Every guy on my Moms side of the family had that happen.
Wow this is such a great video, realising my gender at a later age and not feeling trans enough because I didnt know I was a boy from a young age I relate so much to that (even the part about being a bit of a hypochondriac haha). Other trans guys videos they started at a younger age and knew they were a boy from young and i cant relate to that. This has eased my mind a lot
Thanks man for this video! I have a lot of the same fears. It's hard even now for me because I'm back in South Texas, so I'm dressing like a woman again and I hate it. I'm afraid of not being able to get a job etc if I transition because my face is such a girly baby face. It's frustrating. Thanks for the video!
So, if I can ask, what kind of shift was it for you when you decided to transition? After all was said and done, and you sifted through your fears, did you just get fed up like, "Hell with it I'm doing this." Or was it more like "yeah, it's a change, but the more I think about this, the more I think I'm comfortable with it." Or maybe something different? I think I'm in that questioning whether this is what I want/afraid stage right now. And I'm trying not to rush into things even though it so much sounds like what I want. I'm just curious what sort of mental/emotional shift you went through when you ultimately decided this is the path you wanted to take. How did you feel at the point when you made the final decision to go through with HRT?
my only concern is singing. Will it just add to the bass end or will it cut off the top end. (we're talking 6 octave range, i can do all the hair metal stuff and whatnot)
Lol Dec.19th I am going in to see the endocrinologist... Scared but only cause I don't want my face to look ugly. I'm a little chubby so I am really worried I will get fatter. I was curious what u looked like before .. Also do u have a facebook
