As a 71 year old trans woman, YOU GO HARPER! We just want to be who we feel we are!

[@tammileroux3329]

Acceptance. If everyone just practiced acceptance wouldn't this world be a much better place? You don't have to agree with everyone but just accept them as they present themselves.

[@MauiGirl276]

I will never understand the hate and anger. Or how people have time to put so much energy into others business. We should all be working on bravely know ourselves and living honestly our own true selves.

[@nufamilia]

And I mind my own business 🤷🏽‍♂️ it ain’t hard.

[@bryan9931]

Seth and Harper go day drinking

[@Nintendofan91]

PLEASE

[@temporaladvisor3958]

Yes!!!

[@theoriginal1971]

Lorne Michaels how dare you not give us Unicorn Mountain

[@CrapKerouac]

Seth does sketches, that's the one I want to see.

[@jamesyoungquist6923]

Charlie the unicorn

[@camfifer4911]

As a Hoosier, not a surprise about Holcomb dropping all of his disgusting principles for a photo w a celebrity 😂

[@J.M.-nb4gw]

Indy resident here and Holcomb is just as despicable as Pence and every other Republicunt bigot in the state

[@TheViolalove]

I love the unicorn 🦄 sketch idea. SNL should have a channel on here of all the sketches that didn’t make it, Drunk History style, where they are telling their ideas with dramatic recreation. PLEASE DO THIS! 😍 I loved this interview!

[@CatskillsGrrl]

I love Harper’s smile.

[@Lady-Kawai]

What’s with bigotry? How does the way others live their lives get them triggered so hard? Of course they spew a bunch of lies about bathrooms and obsess over genitalia. It’s baffling to me how much bigots need to police other people’s lives

[@NewMessage]

"..oh, what's happening." The exasperation... hah!

[@annilynnk1090]

As the parent of a trans kid you worry how they are perceived. Will they get beat up if they use the bathroom. If they go to wrong places. This piece helps or could help make it safer.

[@abbycross90210]

My trans kid is finally an adult. Those school years were a constant panic for us. Adulthood is so much better.

[@demisavage77]

Right here feeling the same thing ❤

[@13699111]

I agree completely with your comment. Extremest of any kind are exhausting. Today's world lacks humanity.

[@jamesyoungquist6923]

My highschooler is trans. So happy to be living in Seattle where that's just accepted by his peers, and there is excellent medical support. All I want as a parent is to support him however possible

[@pixearles]

I just want to say how fantastic a parent you sound

[@russell154]

Wow Seth is such a genuine and kind soul.

[@RobertAlberti-jz7sq]

I was lucky enough to see this in the theater last weekend and I'm glad I did. What a wonderful movie.

[@meg771]

Gov Holcomb sucks.

[@DNTXPCTMCH]

I cannot get enough stories of SNL !! 😂❤ It's like I get to be a part of the cool kids group of friends 😊

[@melaniepalmer2888]

So excited for this movie. Hope it opens eyes and hearts.

[@beardown6574]

Love these two together! Excited for the movie!

[@denisem8356]

Harper, you look amazing! You rock those glasses!

[@Cassius3745]

No he doesn't.

[@13699111]

​@@Cassius3745fashion police?

[@paulobro891]

So need Will making movies again, as a 40 odd (hmm hmm) year old i howled at anchorman, old school and even night at the roxberry! Cant forget the other guys lol!! Look forward to watching this road movie 🎬 soon!

[@Moekoffee2001]

Needs more cowbell

[@tomifost]

I put my pants on one leg at a time...

[@timpekarek9159]

Great conversation.

[@bubblesezblonde]

Thanks again all for an amazing interview.

[@Maphisto86]

I love seeing Harper’s dry, sardonic wit being aimed at Seth and Will live. 😂 We need to see Unicorn Mountain on Second Chance Theatre!

[@angelariebli4843]

More SNL stories!!!

[@Hadenufyet]

Very funny & poignant. 🥰. I’d *love* to see “Unicorn Mountain”!

[@KhjjnJustDance]

UNICORN MOUNTAIN FOR SECOND CHANCE THEATRE!!

[@bkteacherret5548]

That was one of the funniest interviews I’ve ever heard! Can’t wait to see the film. They are brilliant together. 👍

[@anastasiabeaverhausen8220]

Harper, you might have a deep voice (so do I, I get called 'sir' on the phone all the time) but I see and know the gal you are. But mostly I just see a person named Harper. You're brave, you're beautiful, you're funny. And you are yourself alone, but not 'alone.' Brava to you.

[@jeanniekartis5916]

Bravo for living your truth ❤

[@leodegas7731]

Next they do a cop movie called will and harper. Just change the last names and let them play with improv thru the movie. Nice follow from the documentary.

[@stef10ziggy]

Seth is so sweet 😭

[@karenanderson5218]

Omg, she is so cute! Love that personality.

[@nickcourter351]

Wonderful!!!!

[@GaScorpio38]

So, look Seth. You guys have really fucked up major bad. (So much so I had to be slightly redundant). Y'all should have had "Why THAT Lie?" as a weekly bit for the last 8 years. So, I think Corrections should be filled with almost nothing but Why THAT Lies. Please and thank you.

[@Donillini]

You damn jackal

[@bigbirddottv]

They're eating the Unicorns!

[@opaladwyl]

Everyone could use a trans friend

[@nancydrew453]

Good show

[@semmaville]

Neutral Comment: This explains why people don't like weird... it forces our brains to think... Harper is lovely... but she makes us think... hard... its not just a light-hearted watch... I embrace when people march to their own drum beat legally... its just that currently, our brains are racing with questions... one day it will be normalized and not so confusing!!!

[@Gladedancer]

Three lovely people having an endearing conversation. Thank you, Will, Seth, and Harper for your courage, kindness, and humor in the face of so much adversity 💙🤎🤍

[@J.M.-nb4gw]

As someone who lives in Indiana I sympathize with Harper Lee, our Republicunt governor and state legislators are the most despicable a-holes

[@BryanJohnson-qb1se]

Who’s that sexy beast?!!

[@hawsrulebegin7768]

Genuine question here. When people transition to a woman why do they dress like women? By that I mean two things. It’s a classic, long hair and dresses style of what women wear. Rather than jeans n tees style of dress. But also how does dressing as a woman mean something? Is wishing to be a woman incomplete without the dressing up element? I’m not being sarcastic or mocking. Just curious as how it makes them feel ? Without the dressing part would they not feel a complete transition? Hope this isn’t taken badly.

[@arcturusnfshp]

I’m not trans, but there’s two aspects to gender for every person, gender identity and gender expression. Gender identity is your internal “this is who and what I am” i.e., female, male, non-binary, etc., and gender expression is how you express your gender on the outside. If a trans person wants to express their gender identity through clothes, wigs, affectation, surgery, etc., it’s all their choice. Cis people do the same thing-a cisgender woman will also choose to express their femininity through the same ways, or not. Look at like the “tomboy” persona; not all tomboys are gay or trans, just they choose to express maybe their more masculine aspects as a way of expressing themselves, or they feel that’s the best way to express their femininity.

[@hawsrulebegin7768]

@@arcturusnfshp thanks so much for that explanation. You’ve made it much clearer. Finally Ive learnt something from KZbin!! Appreciate it.

[@Donillini]

It’s an interesting question. For what it’s worth, I have a transgender friend and she doesn’t really dress that “girly”. She is kind of a tomboy. I guess it’s just each individual’s decision

[@kmduarte2005]

Because people, regardless of gender, or how they identify, wear what makes them feel the most comfortable, or feel their best. It’s why we see some people who still dress the way they did in junior high, or like they stepped out of a time capsule from a certain era.

[@mayakanitkar]

It's very individual, and arcturus explained it really well As a trans person I'll just add that often trans people who present as clearly feminine (or masculine for trans men) are less likely to be misgendered, be it on purpose or by accident. Gender dysphoria is a difficult thing, and sometimes "passing" can feel more important that curating a personal style.

[@AdilParkarSannin]

FIrst!!

[@altonreeves1854]

yikes!

[@dpaul428]

Don't worry bud, everything's fine

[@Theguy.fromthething]

I thought the get up was for a bit... in my 30 years things have gotten, odd.

[@ripley2995]

Arguably, all clothing and personal style is a performance in communication. Odd perhaps. More free for sure. Shrug.

[@Theguy.fromthething]

@@ripley2995 yeah I'm with you on that.

[@mattmasc6386]

Men have been dressing like women for centuries. Sorry you’ve lived such a sheltered life.

[@AlexSoutheyMusic]

A woman wearing feminine clothing. How odd!!!!!

[@13699111]

​@@ripley2995 I so enjoy brave creative interesting people places and things, life is good

[@keymusic]

This Harper person seems so happy and comfortable with itself. Such an inspiration.

[@Dan-Simms]

Omg Unicorn Mountain needs to be a thing, love that juxtaposition. It would have made a great Funny or Die sketch.

[@jimmynotch]

Will and Harper act like a happy married couple. My wife are so much like this.
