"CRUSH" Award-Winning Trans Short Film (2022)

[@PhantomDawg99]

When I first saw his parents I was like oh no are they going to be transphobic!? I was SO relieved when I found out his parents were accepting of him! I wish all trans children had accepting parents. That truly makes a difference.

[@glowfish937]

I wish mine were too

@SusieSteele-kc6nm Awwww, I am really sorry to hear that! TwT I wish you all the best.

[@CosmicKitten67]

Can we take a minute to appreciate his parents? It’s so amazing how hard they’re trying. It really warms my heart.

[@Aurorathesilly]

REAL!!! it reminds me of when i first came out and my mom and sister would still call me "she" on accident but after a few months after me correcting them all the time they would usually use "they" my mom still slips from time to time but she always quickly corrects herself :3

made me cry. i'm gonna show this to my trans friends.

[@Plytapuspoetliz]

I go by Eli and this hurt as no one accepts me and my parents are religious nondenominational and they think my whole being is sinful and that I’m going to hell to a point where my mom said I could kill myself. It makes me happy seeing how others are accepted but makes me really sad like what did I do to have the parents I have

[@Beetle-y2k]

Hey. I’m a Christ-follower. I just wanna let you know that I love you so much (Light hearted way) I have no idea who you are but I 100% support you. Because truth is the Bible says to love others as you love yourself. Please don’t be discouraged and know there’s people who truly love and accept you

[@crow_moriondo]

Gods overarching message is really just to Love Thy Neighbor, so it isn’t a sin. Even if it somehow was, Jesus was also against judging others for their sins (again, being trans is not a sin, this is just a supplementary point) so the logic your parents follow make sense either way. There will always be an online community here for you and your friends as well. You’re valid ❤

[@lovebirdwillingten]

I'm trans and I go by Casper but I'm also a Christian and so are my parents. They've made it clear that they are trans phobic and homophobic so I don't know if we share the same amount of pain but I'm going through something similar. I don't know a lot about you (obviously haha) but I fully support you and I really hope you're safer now or in the future

[@clairemann2]

I’m so sorry my love. No one should ever treat you like that. I accept you and I love you always ❤❤❤❤

Bro is literally majestical oml (This film is incredible stop it right now. It sums up the entire trans experience and I love it so so much.)

[@_sushiisdead]

Im rooting for him man. But i wished he stood up for himself, like seriously bro you just gonna take that? Just gonna let them disrespect you? Toughen tf up and stand up to them

[@espimist7197]

this is very true but i think the film takes into account that hes really early in the transition, hence parents slipping up, so hes still letting go of how when youre raised a girl youre told to take the high road and not stand up to people or be confrontational. frankly i related to that and it was super hard to even correct people.

[@Little_Boo-lb4hi]

Im just like him lol- (literally...)

[@felisazure1820]

This is so adorable and super well done. It warmed my heart!

[@emvk2002]

This was so amazing to watch! The ending made me cry and the scene in the bedroom just felt so personal, despite me being cisgender. Hopefully, people like Ty and Adam grow up and see others who aren't just like them as... *drumroll* ...normal people. Huh. Great job on this project
