This marks what I see as the official end of my transition GRC info: www.gov.uk/apply-gender-recog... Come follow me! Instagram: / jammi.dodger Twitter: / jammi_dodger94 Email: jamieraines@hotmail.com
Congratulations! You are now an "official" male according to your government, of course for those of us that subscribe to your channel you've always been a guy. Much love!
I have to say, i was a bit sceptic about the transgender community at first but after watching videos like these i feel very different about the topic. It just about brought tears to my eyes... I think if I, a (cis-gender woman) can come to understand/accept the trans-gender community I think with enough education and empathy, anyone can and the world can become a better place, thanks to people like you.
@@Jammidodger I am a cis-woman (it feels a bit strange to write that!). I don't even really know how I get to your channel, but I loved you right from the start! I don't understand how people can have problems with transgender people! It's not a choice someone makes! You are a beautiful and nice young man! I am sad, that it costs so much money and took a long time to get this gender recognition certificate and then the birth certificate! I think it shouldn't be like this! Congratulations to you! Now we can all get excited about the wedding! (Sorry for my English!) Edit: Now I know how I get here: DRUCK (the german version of SKAM) made me curious about transgender people!
I'm only 2 months on T but I'm so so excited for more changes to happen and to change my name legally and get the gender marks fixed and surgery and all. 😊
I’m not even trans, I don’t know anyone personally who is trans, and I’ve been watching you for over a year. Seeing you achieve your goals and become who you really are has been really inspiring even though I’m not trans myself. I’m so happy for you, and I can’t wait for you two to get married. Thank you for educating me on topics I never would’ve known about unless I found your channel. Sending you lots of love ❤️❤️❤️
Shelby same - I am just a cheerleader from the sidelines for LGBT but moments like this make me so want to embrace the human side of people, not trans people all people who are struggling and overcoming
You can see it like this: It all started with being born and getting a birth citificate and now your transition ended with changing it to the right sex. Greetings from Germany! :)
I need a shaaba 😭 she is such an angel sweetie, I'm amazed how beautiful and caring and supportive she is! She loves you so much Jamie, you are so blessed to have this love
They are couples goals,!! The way they support each other and care for one another is beautiful. I am so glad Shabba's family finally could see that and welcome Jaimie into the family.
Me watching as Jamie starts crying: smiling super happy. My 80 yo Grampa: he’s crying. You’re happy he’s crying? Me: it’s good crying! He’s happy. Grampa: oh okay, that’s good.
9:13 I'm getting really REALLY tired of the argument that trans people are trying to sneak into the wrong bathroom. I'm a conservative Muslim woman who wears hijab and I'm not sure if sharing a bathroom with transwomen affects whether I can remove my hijab in the bathroom or not. This bathroom decision effects me directly, and I'm still supportive. The whole argument that trans people are only trans bc they want to be predatory in the opposite toilet is so disgusting and demeaning to trans people's identities. The people making these accusations have clearly never struggled with their own identities and probably have predatory ideation themselves. You expect from others what you know to exist within yourself. Get your mind out of the gutter. Refusing compassion to others because you're afraid they'll act out your own sick fantasies is not ok.
I don't think the argument is about trans people themselves, I think it's about predatory men *claiming* to be trans in order to get access to female facilities.
@@mogznwaz Yeah, but that argument is stupid because predatory men are already intending to commit a crime, why would they care about being allowed to enter womens spaces?
@@Chuckiele Yes but predataory people are a. always looking for new ways to be predatory b. currently don't have bathrooms as an option because they're spotted too easily and challenged. j
@@mogznwaz b is exactly the point. They dont care about being spotted easily. People that are intending to sexually assault women dont care about being called out for entering safe spaces. Thats the least of their concerns...
_Okay_ but does Jamie sort of have the same facial expression sitting on his bed there before opening the letter as he did right after he got his testosterone 8 years ago but hasn't yet applied the first gel pack???? It all comes full circle💕🤧 *I'M NOT CRYING YOU ARE*
When you cried, I cried. Here in Oregon, we are so lucky because we have a law called 'self affirmation'. We can state m/f/non-binary on our driver's licenses without paperwork, but also our paperwork is just a small fee and a send in with pretty much no possibility for denial. (We've become very inclusive here.) I am so happy for you both, and thank you so much for the courage your journey has given me when debating starting testosterone and surgeries.
I love Oregon so much. Such a beautiful state in so many ways. I’m so happy to live here. I just wish the cost of living wasn’t so damn high lol. ❤️🌳🌲🌧🌊🏔🏖
my journey with being trans has just begun and i wanted to say thank you jamie, you’ve helped me so much with coming to terms with truly being myself, congrats !!!!
Those happy sockfeet kicks, to that wide-eyed "WOW" look he gave Shaaba when the significance of what he'd just read sank in, to the tears of overwhelming relief and happiness--I felt it through the screen! It's so unexpected and wonderful to experience these feelings with everyone here as a cis woman who'd never had any reason to think about trans issues until coming across Jamie and my two other new favorites on RU-vid (Ty Turner and Natalie Wynn/Contrapoints). Videos like this one can open minds that were once closed, and I'm so glad we spuds have this real footage we can offer to people in our lives who don't think they can relate to others who transition.
I was so scared when you started crying because I thought you didn’t get accepted. Then when you cut and I realized you were happy crying I was so excited for you!
Anyone else think they couldn’t cry at anything more than the engagement video? I am SOBBING. I’m so chuffed for you Jamie. BONUS BOSS LEVEL DEFEATED! I had to rewind when he was back in the yellow chair talking because I had to keep blowing my nose.
Yay!! Congratulations! I can't even begin to imagine the sense of relief and lifting of a burden when you saw that letter. So often we don't realize the weight of things that we carry around. I rejoice with you in the relief you feel!
I started watching your channel ages ago and celebrated in your joy and accomplishments. Plus getting an education on things I didn’t understand. Now, a few months ago my daughter started dating a FTM trans boy. (They are teenagers, he’s still a boy.) So now I also watch with intention to understand and support the two of then. Shabba’s input has been very insightful too. Congrats and all the love!!
I just knew in that moment when Jamie cried how much it meant to him. I felt that. I’m now almost crying. I am so proud of you Jamie, congratulations. You definitely deserved it!!!💕
CONGRATULATIONS, Jamie!!!! I teared up when I saw your reaction. I am so happy for you and Shaaba! I am a 66 year old cis-male ally grandfather with three friends that are transgendered. Wedding plans are now in the forefront! Congrats!!!
I feel bad saying this, but I really needed to see those happy tears today. My own transition has to be slow (for lots of health related reasons) and seeing this is just... I needed this today. Thank you for sharing. Thank you for the hope.
Congratulations Jamie! We're all so happy and proud of you, you are a lovely man who has taught so many people so much and deserve all the happiness the universe can offer you.
Just want to say i haven’t followed this channel for very long, just found Jamie maybe a week or two ago, and i absolutely adore you both!! When you opened that letter and starting crying i literally could not contain my tears! I’m so happy that you have completed this journey it is so incredible!! You are a beautiful man Jamie inside and out!!
I've just spent over an hour watching most of your videos, I've cried, laughed and feel like I know you personally, you're an absolutely amazing person, watching your journey from start to finish was absolutely amazing, you're a wonderful person, I wish you all the happiness and luck in the world ♡
Totally crying in joy with you, my friend, and can relate so deeply to that moment. I'm so very happy for you! And thank you for sharing your journey with all of us. You continue to be a great support to me on my journey as well.
CONGRATULATIOOOOOOOOONS!!!!😀😀😀😀😀👏👏👏👏👏👏 (I cried too!!) you are a lovely person (and Shabbaa) and so brave and I feel so happy for you and proud of you! Eeeeeee!!!
Oh Jamie love I'm so happy for you!!! Watching your experience, which I have a long time, and seeing it all tie together now, is so incredible. Congratulations!
Congratulations Jamie I’m so so happy for you thank you for sharing your life it has helped me understand the transition again I’m so so excited for you
A massive congratulations to you! It has been a wonderful, emotional and sometimes painful journey to watch, but thank you for sharing it with us all. Also, very nice speech at the end. Congratulations to you again!
Congratulations! I’ve only started watching your channel recently and you’re such a wonderful, sincere, kind person. I cried so hard during this video and I’m so happy for you. Many of my friends are going through transitions right now and I only hope I can support them in the way that Shaaba’s supported you. Much love.
I’ve actually been following your journey for years and you were the first person I found on RU-vid that I really identified with. You’ve taught me so much over the years (7 years actually) and helped me realize that transitioning was the right thing for me as well. I’m so happy for you, and happy to see the end of your transition. ❤️ I definitely cried happy tears for you as well.
I'm so glad that this went the right way, I actually started crying when you did, may seem odd but I'm truly so proud of how far you have come and that you have been able to get here and share your experience along the way. Honestly, thank you for sharing all this stuff with us, transition related or not, it's just nice to see people be so real.
Thank you for letting us come along on this journey with you 💕 your strength and vulnerability made me tear up. You're amazing, I'm so happy you got through this hurdle. You are amazing! 💕💕💕
Awwwwww Jamie I'm sooooo chuffed for you! I started getting teary eyed for you! Must be SUCH a relief! Sending u and Shaba oodles of love, light and good wishes!!!!! Cheers 👍♥️🎉🥂🎉🥂
Yaaaay congratulations!! Happy for you! Your faaaace when you went from giddy to tears...💚 So glad you can go forward with your future plans getting to enjoy your real complete self from here on out!!
Congratulations Jamie, I came across your videos only in the last few months but just want to say your journey and voice definitely makes a positive impact out in the world. Could not be happier for you!
