I hust don't think Dylan is trans. There's no way. I've seen other trans people and they don't treat being a women as a colossal stereotype. Then we look att he fact what Dylan was a gay man, then trans straight and now identifys as a lesbian... There's no way Dylan is genuinely trans. I think it's all for attention

Blair White. No. I don’t agree with her on many things, but overall she has a positive impact. Dylan Mulaney. Absolutely. 100%. Nothing he says or does in any way furthers the trans community. “Day one of being a girl, and I’ve already cried three times, I wrote a scathing email that I did not send, I ordered dresses that I couldn’t afford and then when someone asked me how I was, I said ‘I’m fine!’ when I wasn’t fine.” I’m not even a female, but I found that so insulting to women. That’s a parody of a woman, not a woman.

You hit the nail on the head of the issue with Dylan. Aside from the high potential of Dylans transition being more of a money/fame grab than everything else, the days of girlhood tiktoks completely co-opted any previous discussions about trans people. That series blew up so much that it made it seem like every single trans person saw being trans as the adoption of gender stereotypes for the opposite sex. It made it seem like trans people saw the opposite sex as a set of stereotypes they could adopt and then claim to be a member of said sex. People saw how profitable it was to demean trans people and the opposite sex, and jumped on the bandwagon. I wouldn't be surprised if the "trans women are actual biological women" rhetoric also stemmed from Dylan mulvaney. like from the tiktok singing about how some women have bulges. I really don't like Dylan. I'm a woman who does not generally fit normal stereotypes of women. I work in a male-dominated field and am more capable than many of the people I work with. I don't generally like wearing dresses. I don't freak out and run away from bugs or prance around or do pretty much anything promoted in that tiktok series. But it doesn't make me any less of a woman. It's frustrating that not only has Dylan amassed a fortune by making fun of women, it was also by basically making fun of trans women by presenting them as daft and out of touch with reality.

The reason is that i am here. Blair white. If it wasn't for her, i would have never been as understanding as i am or as accepting. Blair reaches a different audience, same thing with Buck Angel. Same concept. They are not judgmental and rude to people who have no understanding of transgender issues. The transphobic label gets old when people just dont understand or have never been around it to know anything. Blair has a way of being a "normal" everyday person, same with Buck. I appreciate the work they do. I am a middle of the road person and can be very open-minded thanks to people like them.

One thing about Blaire that I think is really positive is how you can click on any of her videos, go to the comments and see people writing 'Blaire, before I discovered you I thought all trans people were this and that, but now I see that's not the case'. And that's a very positive thing in my opinion - she made so many people on the more conservative side of things realize that trans people aren't a monolith; some you're gonna agree with, some disagree with, just like with people in general. It seems so obvious but it's a very important first step towards looking at a group of people in an actually humanizing way, right? And I don't think that someone liberal of the, say, more blue hair and pronouns disposition would be able to cause that change in all of those conservative people.

Then I come here to watch Alexis and she is calming - just like Liam said and I think - she has my full support. She just gains support by being a good person not demanding "YOU MUST RESPECT ME OR ELSE!!". That kind of attitude is a turn off regardless of who is saying it.

I’m only up to 20mins in and the part where you ask am I part of the problem? NO!!! You are part of the solution! Intelligent, rounded conversations without the screaming, hate and victimisation is what the trans community desperately needs, because the awful stereotype that is being created by a lot of trans rights extremists is what is creating more transphobia than ever. I don’t always agree with Blair White but Dylan Mulvaney brings the trans community down tremendously. There’s a big difference between behaving like a woman and acting like a woman. Especially a misogynistic, moronic stereotype of what being a woman means. Love these discussions! Keep up the good work, both of you.

I remember when Queen Latifah was the spokesperson for WW and her platform was “Become a Size Healthier” and that spoke to my core. I myself will never be an ‘ideal’ weight according to medical charts or what-not. I have a very dense bone structure, and have actually had a health professional tell me that it will always off-set me by a good 20 - 30 pounds. His recommendation to me was “Pick a clothing size you feel represents where you want to be; when you fit that, then you will be at your healthy weight regardless of the numbers.” I currently have a lovely little black dress in a size 14 hanging in my closet that I pull out to remind me - that’s my goal. As a current size 18, that is SO much more emotionally attainable than relying on the scale.

My personal opinion as a straight white female. I don't think we as a whole have a problem with anybody being who they want to be. For instance on the bathroom debate. I wouldn't have a problem with blaire or yourself coming into our bathroom we can tell you are genuine and would enter unnoticed even.I would not be bothered even about a gay male either as we know they are no danger to us. But we have to draw a line. We cannot open our spaces just for anyone. This is not being transphobic this is just trying to keep people who are not genuine out. For our safety . Blaire/ Buck and yourself make us able to understand how you wish to just live a normal life. The likes of Dylan is not, he rubbed me up the wrong way the very first time i watched his content. I love watching Blaire she was the very first person I came across when wanting to educate myself on the whole trans debate followed by Buck Angel He also is such a honest guy.

Having you both be here, unpacking your own content alongside other content creators shows me you ARE growing from reflection and being deliberately thoughtful - and bringing us along for the ride.

I think the main issue on why there's more negative content towards "trans" (I say that in quotations due to the fact that the majority of those crazy tiktoks aren't really trans people, there's something else going on there.) is that the real/non-crazy trans are scared to speak out against the craziness due to being ostracized by a cult-like mob, so it leaves the crazy loud minority to keep making more of a bad impact. That's what I think atleast.

A few things: I am a Christian woman who votes along conservative lines. I appreciate yours, Blaire's, Buck's, and Marcus' content. I was unaware of gender disphoria(?) before so I didn't understand transition. I'm sure we would disagree on some things, but I appreciate that you all are open, honest, and vulnerable. I also greatly appreciate that along with your personal experiences all of you give facts. Yes, Blaire, and even Marcus, can be abrasive. But I am much more receptive to someone who can back up their position with solid, objective, proven facts instead of calling me horrible names because I don't agree with them. Dylan: My feathers as a woman do get ruffled over Dylan's content. They do play a hyperbolic, caricature of womanhood. Also, I do feel like they have taken over women's spaces between their partnership with Tampax and winning "Woman of the Year". (Btw, I was also against Caitlyn Jenner receiving the same title.) Furthermore, when you do a deep dive into Dylan, you find numerous videos of him (when he identified as male) acting over the top to get his 15 mins of fame. And the way he acted then is the same as they act now. So to me it's disingenuous. Budweiser: Lastly, there are many reasons for the backlash over the partnership between Dylan and Budweiser. Some of it is prejudice, yes. And honestly it's hard to say how much since I can't see into people's souls - lol. But there's more to the story than that. The marketing executive who pushed the partnership, was said to want to change the whole consumer base of Bud Light from your stereotypical blue collar working class to the LGBTQ+ community. People took offense to being told their long-time consumption of Bud Light was not appreciated nor wanted anymore. And some people didn't like that Dylan referred to themselves as a "girl" and behaved in a juvenile way, as it could lend itself to pedo_______ ideations. All in all, I do feel the prolific spread of misinformation and demanding nature of those who are activists is toxic, especially to people like yourself, Blaire, Buck, Marcus, etc. who genuinely struggled with a severe disconnect between your psyche and physical body. Which is why I am grateful that all of you, and those I haven't discovered, are willing to speak up. Please keep up the work, and thank you!

8:47 Most people, myself included, just rolled our eyes when Dylan came out with the Bud Light ads. It wasn’t until the Alissa Heinerscheid interview became known that it ignited the boycott. It was the interview that really set people off and Dylan became the poster child for that interview. It also didn’t help that news media and publications laid the blame solely at Dylan’s feet and never mentioning Heinershit’s remarks. It’s as if the media wanted people to rage against Dylan and that’s what happened. If you ask anyone involved in the boycott, they will tell you it’s not just the Dylan ads, it was the Heinershits interview that ignited that whole thing.

Alexis, im a Bi latina woman and i can tell you that the rhetoric from Gender activists has become intertwined with so much of the marxist ideology. To the point where people who are LGBT and POC are being silenced and disrespected. A couple of days ago, my EX (straight white male) found it acceptable and necessary to mansplain, whitesplain and now, straightsplain my own community to me!! Aside from being called a hateful terf. This was because i said that xeno genders and their pronouns (cupcake/cakes, void/voiself types) weren't real; as well as saying that t/ men and t/women needed their own spaces and categories that reflect their valid journeys. Something is wrong when straight people silence other LGBT as Allies that don't experience our journey. See, i personally don't give a F**k about what the heteros think about us. I'm here as a BI woman, for OUR LGBT community and our history, legitimacy, spaces and for the predecessors who fought, bled and died during the AIDS epidemic so we could exist and love openly. So yes, i DO take personal insult to people who are co-opting and mocking our pain, dysphoria, anger and our lifestyle by invalidating and dissmissing it in favor of a free for all. You and other people who transition are not the same as somebody who wants to legitimize bug/ flower/ cake genders without dysphoria or any type of transition. Neither is it acceptable or respectful to our homosexual brothers and sisters that people are trying to guilt trip them into sleeping with people who don't meet their personal homosexual standard. Im here for OUR community to remain respectful of each other. Afterall, by DEFAULT of our acronym being LGBT, we had the acknowledgement that we were each valid, different and deserved our own spaces. So too should it be for men and women. Being equal doesn't mean being interchangeable♡♡♡

How can a homosexual just switch to heterosexual (Dylan said they are into women now, after being into men), and just switch around!? Didn’t the lgb community fight enough the last couple of decades!? Just don’t like Dylan.

I haven't watched to episode of the podcast yet, but I wanna give my take. Do I agree with everything Blaire and Dylan have said/done, no, however, I think they both have been overall more positive then negative for the community. Blaire is a KZbin ICON, she's one of the og trans content creators and she's opened so many people's eyes and educated on important topics. I also feel that she's been a trailblazer for showing being trans has nothing to do with politics or ideologies, and although I don't agree with all her takes, she is incredibly compassionate and understands the importance of perspective of non trans individuals. She's inspired so many other trans content creators and trans people in general, to realize they can share their voice and opinion especially on the current state of the community being incredibly lose and unfocused on what being trans ACTUALLY is. It's not about collecting pronouns, it's not trendy, it's not common, it's a very rare and unique experience that transsexual men and women go through, and it shouldn't be open to anyone. She's humanized us by calling out the bs in our community, and she's never afraid to speak her mind and her truth, which is why she deserves all the respect and flowers in the world. Dylan, now unlike Blaire I'm not a huge fan of her content but I do follow her on Instagram. Her personality is just a little too peppy for my liking, but I think even with all her controversies she's been a very important trans woman in social media. She literally has documented her journey with HRT, facial hair removing, her FFS, passing, dealing with gender dysphoria, etc. I can't think of another person who has shared their journey to the extent Dylan has and the thing is, she doesn't just show the glamorous parts she has shown herself with a full face of stuble without makeup, etc. Even with some of her antics personally being cringey to me, seeing where she started to where she is now, she's grown into such a beautiful girl and overall she's shared her experience in a way that's unique and unheard of previously to her.

I have no problem sharing my “female space” with trans women, it’s the men hijacking the trans movement and pushing themselves over women that I have a problem with and that’s kind of how I see Dylan.

I think there are three category of trans influences. The once like Alexis who are sweet and don't want to step on peoples toes and just wants to live life as she is. Second group is trans people who love all the attention and think by being loud and controversial they will win people over. Then the third that by far is the most damaging in my opinion. The non binary who in some cases put themselves above trans people and are riding the coat tails of this debate. Its narcissistic and absolutely in my eyes the reason trans acceptance is down and by proxy gay people. Absolutely way more layers in all this, but at a surface level this is how I see the issue. On a ending positive, I think you are a breath of fresh air Alexis and I enjoy the content you put out.

But when I started to watch Blair she changed that, I saw a Trans person who wasn't any of those things, and she wasn't trying to be something is not. And yes Blair can be bunt something harsh, but she is always truthful in her content. I enjoy watch level headed Trans like Blair, Buck Angel, You, and Marcus, because I believe that all of you are a wonderful influence for the Trans community. And we need more Trans to be more positive and then it would out weight the bad.

It was all so negative! But then you started popping up into my shorts and I was attracted to your videos because youre British like me 😂 but also because youre so friendly, good mannered and approachable. You feel so relatable and it was a relief to find a trans person who is just a nice, normal person. I think youre a balm against all of the crazy trans influencers now. Before i found you, i was starting to feel very negative and less supportive of trans people because all I was seeing was the whole extremist trans movement. You helped remind me that 99% of trans people are just like you and its important that we dont let all of the screaming drown out the truth. I think its very important that you keep doing what youre doing! Youre doing a very important job in my opinion. Youre both so relatable and seem so kind and accepting.

This causes confusion because everyone is talking about the same word but actually means different things. It’s like trying to have a conversation about apples, but some people are actually talking about oranges. This mix-up can make conversations go in circles without really solving anything.

Oh sweeties - film when you need/ want/ have an inclination to. We'll be here. Yes I do. I'll answer it before I watch the video so I am not influenced. Blaire White understands that while trans rights are important they are not the only thing that is. She addresses issues that it seems the larger transgender community is either choosing not to address or dismisses fully (like people like Jessica Yaniv and their predatory behaviour or women's rights not being respected). As a woman I can't tell you how much i appreciate it. It's a large reason why I followed your channel. Dylan Mulvaney. As a person, he seems charismatic, outgoing and funny. But he really doesn't understand at all why his content is offensive to many women and keeps doing the same thing. It makes him seem fake and insincere, basing his attitude more on stereotype rather than reality and cares very little to change those qualities. He isn't as bad as some transactivists ( I am looking at you Blossom Brown) but he doesn't win people over or really educate people about the realities of transgender life. It just seems very performative rather than qualitative on Dylan's part making his transgender identity lack sincerity. I do wonder if in a few years he won't suddenly revert back when the audience loses interest. EDIT - I had no issue with Dylan promoting Bud Light. Beer doesn't have a gender identity.

The reason I like KZbin is because I like watching people having discussions/debates about various topics (good, bad, positive, negative, many sides). I also like where people can show more of their genuine selves. I follow Buck Angel, Blaire White and various others when I go down the KZbin rabbit hole. These days there seems to be too much screaming or shutting down discussions, unable being able to explore all different perspectives without it becoming hostile or extremely negative. It appears the extreme activists are ruining many different communities and/or movements. I watched a video where a professor explained that social movements fight to get to a certain goal in the wider community but once that happens, then they don't know when to stop and just keep pushing for more and more. This is when things start to backfire and the pushback starts to happen. Example, woman's movement strived for equality and then now some parts of the movement want additional rights. This discussion was my lightbulb moment to understand things a bit better. Just my thoughts and thanks for your videos, these are great to watch.

Okay I’m adding my $0.02 before the video starts because I have no self-control lol. I feel like a big issue is people seeing any group as a monolith that can be represented by any individual person/s on social media. I have experience that is weirdly similar in terms of having embarrassing people “represent” me on social media against my will lol (tho as a bi lady the toxic LGBT “advocates” on both sides of the political fence also stress me out)… I have DID and there are a whole bunch of people making an *absolute mockery* of it on social media lately. And while it does REALLY upset and embarrass me, I try to remind myself that any competent adult who looks at these obviously misguided teenagers pretending to have DID & treating it like a friggin fandom and sees accurate DID representation, that misunderstanding is kind of on them. I want to believe that most rational, good faith adults wouldn’t take a clearly unstable, attention seeking, chronically-online teenager as an authority or accurate representative of people with DID. Tho of course I do still think their behavior is harmful to themselves and other kids who might see it and be influenced by it, but that’s kind of a separate issue. And then there’s the confidently incorrect online “commentators” who try to rip these kids apart and show how they’re faking but they’re equally if not more ignorant on the subject of DID and just do more harm than good by further muddying the waters… But yeah it’s crazy, if the traits of the people being toxic about their alleged DID and those who are being toxic about their transgenderism/LGBT status were put on a Venn diagram, it would be a circle lol. These two communities seem to be one and the same and it’s kind of fascinating. Same with Fat Activists, too. It seems to me like there’s just this type of person who gets drawn to any means of fabricating an identity they feel they lack, willing to deny/demonize the science & experts that threaten to expose their inauthenticity, desperate for a a community of people to engage with (and control), and who gets gratification from co-opting social justice language to shame everyone else into compliance with their delusion (often silencing/hurting legitimate members of a community in the process). They insist on putting the responsibility for their emotional wellbeing in the hands of strangers to maintain a constant state of victimhood. Honestly I’d love to see an anthropologist, psychologist, or sociologist study this phenomenon, because the pattern seems so clear with these types regardless of what trait they’ve decided to craft their identity around. Okay okay I’ll stop ranting now. I’m glad you took the time you needed Alexis!!

Then you that’s respectful, understanding,to the point,as Liam said elegant, you do actually show trans people as totally normal. I think you’re a great influence and a great spokes person for trans. Keep being the fabulous women you are. Randomly I do find your voice very calming. I have a non verbal complex needs autistic son. I get very lonely and don’t hear anyone talk back to me for 15 hours a day while my partner at work. I’m always having a one sided conversation. I enjoy hearing you while I do the washing up

I have an autistic daughter. I had depression through the isolation and people don’t get how hard it is. Try and join a support group and try and get respite once a week and go to a coffee morning or something

I love your content and hearing both of your perspectives on these issues. I think one of the big issues is that the trans people who are doing the crazy screaming stuff tend to be so loud they drown out the people like you and that's all people are seeing when in reality its not the norm. I also believe that for alot of those people and crazy activist they've realized that's what gets views and views equal money. If it didn't they wouldn't be presenting themselves the way they do online.

Apart from your content in general just because I love the discussions, I absolutely love listening to you and Liam banter back and forth even more so when you completely go off topic and go on random tangents. 🤣🖤

I am not trans but I do love listening to you, Blair, Marcus and Buck. You are all wonderful people who have put yourselves out there for all of us to learn from. However Dylan Mulvaney is not Trans and is simply mocking women. I find him so disrespectful and I do not believe he is doing right by the Trans community.

Alexis, you're not part of the problem. Genuine trans women just want to exist and live their lives. Unlike the activists who want to dominate and control bio women. You have opened people's eyes to a different pov yet not at our expense. You challenge these videos but stay true to reality. You wouldn't be able to maintain if you were not being yourself on air, your mask would slip. You're a positive role model and can have a genuine conversation about trans and women issues. Stay true ❤

I'm a US "conservative" and believe that adults should be able to live their lives as they choose, you and Liam are great and very thoughtful people and I think you guys are a great example of a supportive couple, the media and society tries to push things / people on the public and can have negative consequences for young people. Dylan was being shoved down America's throats when he bud light thing happened, as if this is what a trans person is, it was was just too much , and Dylan is very annoying and comes across as someone being a character not a real person

I am a straight, conservative biological woman & mother of 5. My oldest son is gay & married to a wonderful man. I fully accept that some people are born different inside than outside & I support that 100% - when they are old enough to make fully informed & understood decisions. I do feel that there has been such a "push" to normalize the Trans lifestyle, that it's become a fad, or the cool thing to do, for many, instead of it being who they actually are. IMO, the issue many people had with Bud is that they glorified a single person, rather than a group. They didn't put MLK's, Chris Kyle, Tiger Woods, Peyton Manning, Rue Paul etc etc on anything. They put a new TT'er who was obnoxiously disrespectful of biological & trans women & men, & of young girls. No one acts the way she does. I know drag queens that don't act afool like that, even on stage. Dylan is not an example of what your lifestyle or mine is like. It's very hard for me to consider Dylan a woman, because "she" feels like a fraud. Again, jmo. I enjoy watching Blaire White & you. You're able to have adult conversations & thoughts & comprehension about what life is for biological & trans people. I applaud you & Liam

Case in point..I as a female and as a lesbian and even as a feminist..did not even register you calling Blaire a she, moment you started talking about Dylan and said "she..."..I immediately registered that AND it annoyed me that you did..( that anybody does) On a whole I'd say YES to are trans social media people bad for trans acceptance just because there are so many like Dylan. But I do think there is a very small group..like you, Blaire, Buck..who I would say are good for transacceptance

I will never see Dylan Mulvaney as a woman, trans or otherwise. Something I've heard many real trans people say that I totally agree with is that it's not only about passing, it's about the energy. Blair White and Alexis always give major womanly energy, usually calm and graceful and soft. The same with Marcus Dib and Buck Angel, but the other way ofc. They all just radiate the energy of the gender they want to be perceived as. Dylan Mulvaney gives MAJOR gay twink energy, NOT woman. Dylan Mulvaney is the worst. I cannot stomach using she pronouns for Dylan, it just does not fit.

Blaire on the whole I like, Dylan - I turned off instantly. Alexis you are an excellent ambassador for the trans community. I'm a regular 57 year old woman and I've fund it surprising that there actually nice trans people like you. I now a couple of other trans ladies and from what I was seeing on KZbin, they were the only "natural" lovely trans people. Glad I found you and Liam - you have restored my faith in humanity. As are the other 2 trans women i mentioned.
