i'd love to go to Gender Therapy, maybe i'll go after i move out or something:v THANKS FOR THE VIDEO THOUGH IT'S AMAZING I LOVE THE SUPPORT YOU GIVE US♡
My high school has a program where if you like the same gender, you can where a rainbow ribbon somewhere on your body (ankle, wrist, etc.) that way you know what people are gay and if they would actually be interested if you asked them out, and basically just to tell who is gay and who is not without having an awkward conversation
Oh my gosh I wish my school had that. It would make it so much easier for me to come out. I might actually try to make this happen at my school where people can wear a ribbon the colour of their sexuality :D
My school has nothing like that. They don't have clubs or anything. In fact, kids actually make fun of you if you seem even remotely gay (trans, gay, lesbian, etc) I have tons of friends that are gay, and etc, and I know they get kinda scarred when people say something simple about them liking someone else, or anything like that, (I'm aromantic so it doesn't really effect me) but they literally live in fear.
Omg I like the idea but I also think it depends on the school. Schools with a high LGBTQ population would feel safe doing that but other schools the kids could be teased.
That_ravenclaw dude I thought for a second that was my other account Scotty Whitis I have the same picture as my RU-vid profile pic then I saw the name plus I haven’t been on that for a few weeks
Im in wales too. Strugling to get access to anything. Theres a new one in cardiff now but i live pretty far in the country with like... no money. So im pretty lost. Going to try to get a referal to a general councelor from my local GP but im worried that they wont understand gender issues or will even discriminate.
Broke my heart when he said that some parents worry about no one loving thier kid. Trust me, there is someone who loves them more than anything. Honestly, my boyfriend (who is trans) is my whole world. 😊
I CAME OUT TO MY GRANDPA AS TRANSGENDER AND PANSEXUAL AND HE IS EXTREMELY HOMOPHOBIC AND TRANSPHOBIC AND SAID “you are who you are and we can’t change that but ill love you forever” IM GONNA CRY!!
I moved across the country and I miss my old therapist :( advice on finding a new one/adjusting to a new therapist from anyone who's done it? Also any good recommendations in LA?
Bella Curcio hey !! there’s this website called mytranshealth.com (got the link right this time lmao) that might be able to help you ! They might not have as many states/areas right now but I’d keep an eye out because they’re a really good website !! Best of luck to you
Does anyone have experience with people ruling your gender as a mental illness? I really wanna see a gender therapist and maybe get on T but it’s so hard... I have schizophrenia and when i tried to explain to my psychiatrist about me being non binary he ruled it under my delusions, so now I’m really scared to talk to professionals about this. Not sure what to do. At first I thought that maybe he was right and I was just delusional and that just made me way more sick. I felt like everyone would think i was just crazy if I came out.. I went online to see what other transgender people with schizophrenia had to say about it and apparently this happens a lot? Which is pretty horrible. I felt so alone. Luckily it’s better now but I still feel bad about. It’s like I’m stuck because of my illness. And I still find myself doubting if this is just cause I’m sick, which I really don’t think it is but how can I know for sure ?? Argh It’s so frustrating 😔 I have a lot of supportive friends and family members but sometimes I can’t help but think “what if they’re lying? What if they just pretend to support me because they’re uncomfortable or feel pity for me. What if they think I’m just sick?”
It’s not really my place to say anything, but I just wanted to remind you that you’re so damn strong. It’s not much but the online community supports you. Have a wonderful day.
I have schizophrenia and I identify as trans as well... I got told the same thing. Had to focus on what a time or just find the right doctor. There's always who at least tries to understand that they are TWO completely different things. I explained that I always knew I was trans ever since the age of 8 but some trauma lead to schizophrenia.
Bruh, my dad (I’m tryna go to a therapist) pulls The it’s just a phase on me CONSISTENTLY but I’m only 14 so I legit can’t do anything. Plus I’m in England so I have to wait till I’m 18 to actually do anything 🤦♂️
EmotionalyUnstableKid ShutUpOrI'llstabyouwitharuler I came out as bi earlier this year so I know were you are coming from. It’s very scary but it gets better. Wait till you are fully accepting of yourself then talk to your parents friends etc. come out when you feel safe. I was scared my dad wouldn’t accept me but he was super supportive. Try coming out to one friend or family member you know will be supportive first, I did and it really helped! This is only based on my experience but I hope you have a good one! Good luck!
i'm trans, i'm gay, and i love you so much. your videos have been there for me since freshman year. i still say "i don't like this you can see how tall i'm not" and my friends and i have good memories of both your old, and even more with new content. i love you so much miles thanks for being you ❤️
Anyone else feel like they discovered their sexuality when they accepted themselves as trans? I identified as lesbian, then bi bcuz I couldn't understand my physical attraction, so I just stayed neutral. Now I'm just like 100℅ gay and everything makes soooo much sense now. Like oh my God!!
Even tho life’s crazy rn, and this video is 2 years old. This really helped me. I am currently going through a tough time about my gender with my parents. I am going to ask if i can see a gender therapist soon hopefully. Miles (if your reading this), thank you for being open about your transition. Your videos always make me smile and i am so grateful for you being here to help many baby trans get through these emotions and knowing they are not alone in this craziness head space thing. Thank you! All my love💚💚
Just thought I’d say, you help me out a lot. I’m an FTM trans guy, but only my closest friends know. I can’t see a therapist, so I watch your videos to help me when I’m feeling dysphoric or when I just need to feel accepted. Sorry, that was fucking cheesy, but I really love you so much. Keep it up, Miles!❤️
You have helped me so much , I have someone in my life that helps me but it’s nice to know I have someone that I can listen to and relate to , it really helps to see you and you have no ideas how much you help
Yeah hi I'm 15 and I'm questioning my gender I think I might either be Asexual or to totally flip the scale Pan sexual and I'm very confused cause I go to a catholic school, even though I'm not catholic (no hate). Any advice
Im also going through the same thing, being a transman at a catholic school. My best advice is to look for people outside of school that will be supportive before looking for people at school. Also, come out about your gender the school year after you are ready because it will make people wrap their heads around it easier since they did not recently know you as your closeted self. Good luck with everything. Catholic school environments could be difficult on you.
Before I started paying attention and understanding videos and things like this I was kind of closed minded. I didn’t view trans people who haven’t transitioned as who they are. It was the whole “they are trying to be this gender” but after about a year of involving myself and seeing different sides and opinions on it, I see them as who they are. Before now, all I’ve ever heard about transgender people is that “they think they were born in the wrong body” and that “god made a mistake” and personally I don’t agree with either of those. I understand how people with dysphoria (is that the right word?) may think that they where born in the wrong body but I also understand how some people don’t believe that. I’m glad to have been taught all of these things from this community and to have been educated on these types of topics. I’m definitely more open to gender and how people express themselves and I’m just so glad to kind of understand what it all means to a certain extent. Of course I may never know what it’s like to feel dysphoric but I understand what it means and how to possibly help someone who feels that way. I wish people would educate themselves and try to understand what these types of things mean. And I no longer hate people who don’t get it because it’s not for everyone and I understand that and I get that they may have been born during a different time and educated differently but that can’t stop them from trying to further expand their knowledge. I’m glad to have dove into this community and pushed myself to understand it better. I send me love and care out to the lgbt+ community and I hope all of you have a wonderful moment today.
miles notification goes off me: *winding back for a regular whip* "watch this if youve ever questioned your gender" me: *HITS THAT YEET SO HARD THE EARTH SHAKES*
Me: *goes to like the video* Me: *sees I already liked it from 2 years ago and realise that I have been questioning my gender for that long* Me: iM hErE fOr tHe PuPpIeS I sWeAr
bro I wanna specifically see this guy in my gender therapy. He seems so chill and all the (not gender therapist) therapists I've had have been very meh and I dont feel like I can really talk to them.
I came out as trans the other day. It was difficult. But I did it and I'm going to talk to a doctor soon so I can hopefully get some form of help to transition and/or feel more comfortable within myself
I watched this because I started crying because I'm terrified that as an enby. If I tell someone that over time itll change and they will say it's a phase and my gender identity shouldn't change and I feel terrified of the journey and finding a community of people who care about me despite my gender and sexuality journey. This video really helped. Thank you.❤
When this video first came out I thought "oh, I'm cis but I'll watch it cuz I watch all of Miles' videos" Well, turns out Miles knows more about me than I know about myself because fast-forward to almost 3 years later and I'm now questioning my gender
Heyo Miles just wanna say that I'm going strong because of you. I'm trans and I'm coming out this Sunday to my parents and I don't know whether to be exited or nervous since they are Christian and I was just wondering if you had any tips or something to make me feel like I can do this-❤️🐢
Miles, I just came out to my dad after watching this video, and he was happy, and we also had a talk about the LGBTQ+ community, and he told me I was safe in my home, and I just wanted to thank you so much for posting this. I feel so much better about my life and who I am as a person. I want to thank you again. So much Miles. Thank you for existing and thank you for posting this.
i have absolutely no clue if im cis male or nonbinary. sometimes being called a boy makes me uncomfortable but non binary doesn't seem like the right term. welp guess imma go cry again
"We can't know how we feel about something until we're there." I totally agree. When people try to give advice when they haven't been through it really bugs me bc they think they're trying to help but they don't know what they're saying. It doesn't help. I'm speaking on mental health but I think it translates.
i put this in my watch later when i was questioning and now that iv'e found my gender this feels so nostalgic. If you feel overwhelmed because your questioning your gender and/or sexuality, trust me, it takes time. You'll get there ;)
I’ve watched you since you had 200k and I cannot tell you how much you inspire me and others around me that I’ve shown your videos to. You are an amazing person and the haters that hate on you are probably going through the same process but are too scared to admit it. Stay strong and you are beautiful inside and out, as any gender. Thankyou for being you x
ive questioned my gender so many fucking times lmao im still confused most of the time but when i see people who are so sure of themselves and of who they are, getting the help they need and deserve, it makes me so happy
