Interview: Gay and FTM

What is it like being a gay FTM? What happens if you want to have a baby? This is a fascinating interview that I would have liked to continue for hours, but your attention span isn't long enough for that, so we cover the basics.

As a cis gay man can I just say, thanks for the video. Being in a relationship with a FTM gay guy has changed everything I thought I knew about the transgender community. He is the best thing that has ever happened to me. Thanks for posting the video.

[@ClosetTransgender]

Thank you for leaving such a positive and uplifting comment. Yours is a beautiful story! Best regards! And now I just want to interview you!

[@haydenroth5892]

Goodness me, I needed this comment. I'm a gay trans guy and I'm kinda scared I won't ever get a husband one day (obviously not now because I'm 14 and afraid 😂) but you know, thanks.

It´s really great to hear that, I hope the two of you are happy. I´m cis, gay and I was just wondering if there are ftm/cis male gay relationships out there.

I haven't seen Spencer for years. Its good to see hes happy and doing well. Great interview Forest :o)

Damming of emotional floodgates was hard for me. Felt numbing and I feared I would not be able to cry when I needed to. But after about 6 or so months, that evened out -- and I'm just a regular crying sissy boy. :) (For me, being emotional is also part of my identity so I was glad not to lose it entirely.)

+George Inotowok Thank you for sharing this. I am so happy to hear from people exploring my older videos. It inspires me to take a trip down memory lane! Thank you.

[@dizzzawn]

I love how your videos cover a wide range of lifestyles and experiences and show the diversity of the human race. Hope you keep vlogging. Yours has become my favorite channel!

[@tobyr3]

Thanks for your interview with awesome Spencer. I'm glad you guys finally got to meet and share the amazing lives you are now living. I do like to caution others to consider what scientists are predicting for our future, something most people don't give much thought to. I hope you two had a grand visit.

[@ClosetTransgender]

I really enjoyed my time! Spencer is great.

[@remyf7520]

I think its really interesting hearing about someone who went off T to try and get pregnant. Thats something I've been reevaluating myself. I'm not on T or anything. But growing up I had this fantasy of becoming a parent and getting pregnant. And while it feels different even looking back at that, part of me is like, well i have the body for it... why not? haha But there are other ways I've heard of trans guys having babies without carrying them. So thanks for this video Forrest!

[@ClosetTransgender]

Thank you so much for your thoughts. The topic and potential for interesting conversation is endless!!!

[@CosmicWanship]

I miss Spencers videos! Glad to se he is doing well :)

[@ClosetTransgender]

TheGranstad It's great, for sure!

[@aiden9716]

Thanks for this. I’m closeted in a ‘straight’ marriage. At 51 I’m pre medical transition- and hearing others stories helps.

[@kaitlinsumner7046]

This was a lovely video. Y'all two were very nonchalant with your humor. Well done.

[@RenGray54]

Btw Forrest you are amazing. Thanks for being an inspiration

[@akarikiddo1607]

Been following your vlogg from my little corner of the world for quite some time now and I just wanted to say that your videos makes me think harder, laugh more and explore life more daringly...is that even a word in english, ah well...anyways... I just wanted to say Thank you!!

[@ClosetTransgender]

Akari Kiddo Thank you very much for watching! This video in particularly interesting, the topics brought up are so interesting for conversation it really is good to hear the support out there.

[@kazerniel]

I love this video, thanks for sharing it :)

[@TheSLOfox]

That's so cool that you met Spencer!! awesome.

[@jackjackshift]

You met Spencer! Awesome :)

[@TheSLOfox]

"damming of the floodgates" - lol. yeah... it can be nice.

[@felixxferd]

Does anybody know more about fertility and HRT? I'm wondering how going on T for about a year would affect someone's chances to get pregnant but it's so hard to find accurate information.

[@theshape69]

Great interview. You two are quite funny together. And easy on the eyes. too.

[@ClosetTransgender]

Aw shucks! Thanks for the nice comment!

[@theshape69]

You're welcome.

[@KadeSouthard]

Nice interview! Welcome to the City!

[@Lesmog2]

Where are the video of spencer ?

[@niko5ism]

I love your videos

[@ClosetTransgender]

Thank you so much!

[@meanaikattack8701]

I AM A TRANSMAN PRE-T THE FACT THAT I UNDER STAND THAT FREAKING ME OOOOUT AM I GAY BUT I DIDNT KNOW YET??????? 3:00

[@RenGray54]

What is his channel? I miss him

[@25marshalyn]

I am always confused when I hear them speak. I recently saw one that is now in love with another transgender like herself /himself. I suspect that in the near future this will be a new community that will emerge and demand to be recognized.

[@scifimom]

Good! They should be recognized and respected, not hidden away, shameful, or shunned. They are humans just trying to live in a way honest to their souls. My heart has love enough for everyone...everyone's heart does, if they let it. It is ok to be confused...give it a while to sink in.

[@benisturning30]

Hot mannies.

[@xaviier_77]

Hey men, how goes it? liked your video

[@ClosetTransgender]

Awwwww, I like you!

[@calamityjean1525]

I don't understand why the trans guy would want to go away for the last two months if he become pregnant. If he did turn up pregnant, wouldn't his husband be the father of the baby? Wouldn't he want his husband with him when he gave birth? Or was the comment ablut going away supposed to be a joke?

[@michellek5550]

Does Spencer have a KZbin channel?

[@ClosetTransgender]

Michelle K He does but it isn't very active-- it's hidden!

[@ClosetTransgender]

Thanks so much for joining the conversation. This "transgender" identity is still in the process of being recognized and understood by the main stream. There is a lot of educating to do, but transgender has always existed. Sexual identity is broken into: physical (xx, xy, etc), attraction (gay, straight, bi, etc), and gender (man woman etc). When someone is transgender it means simply: The gender and physical is misaligned. Some believe that there is a physiological "wiring" from the brain to the body that occurs already in vitro. People are born transgender, and as soon as they can speak express that their body is wrong and they are not as they appear. It is as confusing and frustrating for the person who is transgender, as for those around them to understand what it means and why it is. I am glad you checked out this video, it is not one of the more educational videos, but it is interesting. Just thinking about the topic and sharing your perspective, even if that perspective is confused is helpful.
