My Hope for what I'm older is Don't let yourself regret what you never did. I want to make sure I do all the things I wanted to do

How do i come out to my 18 year old daughter? She has just known me as a lonely sporty type person with adhd and autism. We have a great relationship typically. I am aware of her own insecurities so i have been keeping her mainly in mind before myself.

Icky u r so god damn beautiful

Waited for 7 years to hoop to let it go. But I just started hrt and never be happier

My daughter would not be here if she hadn't transitioned. It has literally saved her life. She is becoming more and more content, happy, positive and confident as this passed year has progressed. And as for ageing, no one wants to age. I don't particularly like looking in the mirror each day at my gradually aging face. But at least I'm fortunate enough to experience ageing, some never do. And if my daughter hadn't transitioned she would not have.

Well me I don't like the whole idea pronouns anyways that's why I say just call me by my name

yea :(

Like the study / survey around 10:00 mentioned, the main "regret" I'm having with my transition is the social stigma. It sucks having to deal with discrimination and shitty, hateful ppl. But it just shows me that I need to get the hell outta this conservative area and find more supportive friends! I'm trying to be hopeful for the future despite all odds against me and every other trans person in the world rn. Stay strong, y'all ❤️‍🩹🙏

You're very cute icky :)

The best time to plant a tree are 20 years ago. The second best moment to plant a tree are now. We ar trees.

I live in a mostly red State in the USA, I tried to come out not even knowing the term for it 25 years ago. I lost half my family and friends and my abusive ex mad eme feel the worst while also baby trapping me, I went into survival mode and repressed the memory of trying to come out in 2000. Took 3 hits of double dipped LSD and 3 hours scream crying in the shower to get ti out of me, my GF at the time was helpful we just didn't get along. I am out 2 years 6/22/25 and about to hit 7 months on HRT. I feel better about myself, but I wish I had been able to come out the first time, I was actually quite femme and pretty I Just couldn't see it. I never got to be a pretty young woman and hate that it took this long to figure out why I was so suicidal and depressed.

Most of everyone enjoys a cheeseburger, dont think otherwise 🫰🏼

Icky, thank you. I've been struggling for a few years now and I feel better❤️

Nice!!!❤❤❤

I love you Ashley editor your bit of the video was absolutely perfect🤍

9:03 Thanks, I kinda needed that

"Conservatives are obsessed with Trans people" is a very silly statement. The media pushes that they are. Most center-right people such as myself don't care. Transition if you want to, just don't push it on children whose brains have not even completely formed. Make that decision as an adult. That's my only personal issue. Everyone lobs the idea of "conservative" as a person that even questions a single left wing mindset.

I regret so much that I wasn’t able to transition sooner. I really wanted to and tried my best but unfortunately legal system in the country I used to live in as a kid wasn’t allowing it at all, not even puberty blockers. It will take some time to heal from all the trauma and issues this inability to transition caused me but I am still telling myself that it is not my fault and I shouldn’t feel like that regret existing in me is caused by my bad actions. Bcs I was literally unable to do it no matter how much I wanted to.

I don't think it's that far fetched that many people will detransition later in their life, because that's how humans are. Altering your body based on feelings you currently have will always have a certain percentage people who will later regret that. Feelings and beliefs might change over the course of your life. That's true for tattoos or vasectomies or anything you can think of, I don't see why the perception of ones gender should be an exception.

Sounds like a lot of energy. Glad I can’t be trans cuz I’m 6 ft 😂😂😄🙂🙂‍↔️🙂‍↕️😒😖😞😞

Yooo what is Ashley’s hair style called? I love it and am considering doing something like that myself.

That’s crazy I see u on Reddit all the time and I almost had a heart attack when u were on my YT homepage 😭

Do people think 40 yo look old af? Im almost 40. I look similar to people in their 20s

I’m not attracted to cis-women with male features or trans-females with male characteristics.

Theres NO WAY OB EARTH ill EVER detransition. I only regret not coming out sooner. Im a week post op from breast augmentation (i went from an A cup to a D cup)

My parents have been the reason why I have been so scared to take hrt. But things turned out not good, and now I'm going to start it at 23, it makes me pretty sad because I still live with them, so I asked my endocrinologist to help me transition in a slow manner, so I have time to go live on my own.

That first comment was SUPER "As a black man"

Keep The Bottom As Is, Only Because I Like It!!! 🤫🤭🤗❤❤❤

Wish I Was There!❤❤❤

Oh hell yeah. About twenty years ago I was a fun-loving guy in his mid-forties. I transitioned over the next two decades into a depressed, isolated, miserable sixty-five year old. That said, you are seriously the best person ever to help folk.

If you dislike how you look in the mirror because of your gender then your trans or may just be cis if you did transition. Detransitioners are valid but detransitioners who use there experience to say other trans people aren't actually trans is transphobic. However I really doubt many if any detrasitioners are transphobic. I feel like most are very strong allies because they at one point related to the trans experience and as a result do have a connection to trans people. You also do not need to do HRT or any surgeries to be trans. My brother who is a trans man does not want to do HRT because they do not want testosterone but they are getting top surgery. I on the other hand a trans women is on HRT and is going to get bottom surgery in the next year. Gender is so damn complicated and people really need to stop making this is night and day gender is so expansive and confusing.

Icky je t aime ❤

You got the like because of the weather joke hope the content engagement helps.

I wish I would have transitioned in my early 20s but now I’m 35 and I’m afraid. I also happen to be a very tall person. I wish I would have had the social structure to start at an earlier age. It really hurts.

I'm 42 and though I was on HRT for 3 years I think the only regret in stopping is my family. I live alone but I also just lost my mom and needed family. The same homophobic, transphobic, phobic so on and so forth lovers of trump etc etc. I just wish I could have transitioned at 16. I know I'm older and won't have a family and have to live with that. That's just the sad reality I have to accept. But do I love a boring life oh heck no! I am frickin loving my life now. I may go back on HRT but unfortunately I may not be able to get top surgery like I want due to family issues. So no I don't regret anything beyond that and I am still a happy, healthy 42 transwoman.

i get situations where i look back at me pre-HRT, where i see me back then still being happy and smile, and people say when i show them the pictures, "you looked like a woman with a beard." i understand people are trying to help and uplift someone when they say stuff like that, but i remembered being down in the dumps about my low-t before i bit that bullet, and it does kinda hurt for people to say uplifting things only when they see me now compared to then. i don't regret my transition often, but i sometimes find it easier in the world to express myself as a guy, and i'll have stints of wanting to reclude in my gender identity, especially after getting aggressively heckled and harrassed in the "affirming" way by guys cause of my face and voice, and how _i pass._ i never have felt more powerless than in those moments. i'm 9 months on HRT, have known i am trans for 1.5 years, and i should clarify that my body is exactly as i want it now, but i've had a little bit of a mismatch with my actual identity sometimes because of how i just hate being harassed by guys in our society for being seen as a woman, and that it's the only reason i often find ways to be a guy, beyond being able to actually connect and talk with a guy.
