Mark, it cracks me up how many references of Rebecca’s you miss - including references to obscure 19th century poetry and a dizzying array of other art forms, not to mention cultural notes stretching over 100 years - I, 56 years old and possessing a graduate degree, had to look up a couple of them to answer my own question: “I know I’ve heard those words before; where was it?” If you did catch them, you’d know just how dazzlingly cultured and educated she is (for her age or most ages), auto-didact or otherwise!

I just wish there were more resources for people like Rebecca who are lost in this world and wandering with so much potential.

[@samanthaemaguire]

Love doesn’t consider your opinion over another’s. Mark continually refers to Rebecca as a male, disregarding the obvious gender dysphoria and trauma response he triggers in Rebecca every time he mentions what’s between her legs. More than once he’s beaten this opinion of his that she is a man and he sees her as a male. Living with a trans teen I can assure you that love is acceptance and allowing for free will. That’s what they want to live within, unconditional love and acceptance. She just said “You haven’t given me the space to cry...” and that’s so telling considering she cannot refer to herself as a woman in his presence and be accepted.

[@Olga-vo8gc]

Hi! I'm glad to see a comment of a trans person. I think there's like a 'dismisive vibe' in the air around the fact that she IS a woman and she needs some sort of reafirmation. She needs to be seen as who she is. IMO, it's not 'get well and then decide if you want to transition', I think it's the transitining what may help her out. And I was wondering what other trans folks think about this. Mark is an angel but he doesn't seem to understand this specific situation fully and he says things sometimes that could hurt. I think Rebeca has so much patience everytime Mark calls her 'a handsome male'. I don't know. Thanks for reading, friend :)

@@Olga-vo8gc undergoing medical transition confirms that being an effeminite male is unacceptable, wrong and requires medical, hormonal and surgical intervention. It pathologizes an entire sub category of males (and females) whose personalities are not stereotypical of their sex. Its a placebo treatment at best, that reinforces the very sex stereotypes and homophobia which can lead to HSTS people experiencing severe gender dysphoria to begin with. Long term, it introduces even more physiological and mental health problems than it solves by telling the person they are correct in believing they are not acceptable just as they are. Expand your understanding of what the categories of men and women actually are in reality, rather than pathologizing gender non conforming people.

[@VaporVixen1990]

I’m a recovered alcoholic who is a transgender woman. Transitioning doesn’t “fix” all someone’s problems. I learned firsthand being on hormones 10+ years and having you don’t take estrogen and your voice changes. You also have your facial hair removed by laser hair removal for Rebecca’s hair color. I remember being a young man that transition I thought would fix my life. It didn’t but it’s not something I recommend for everyone. It’s great for some but the “trans trend” can be confusing to people who don’t grow up feeling gender dysphoria as a child. I hope Rebecca can get into a rehab as she’ll never get a hormone prescribed the way she is in this interview

You need to speak up. Really... honestly Some people just transition because of their charisteristics. Just because you love make up and sound like a girl doesnt mean you need transition( Also applies to girls vise versa). Some people do this because they are confused and this is the trend. After while they realize they have made a mistake and some people are too late to go back but some people really need to change. People need proper awareness about this whole gender thing.

You are such a BEAUTIFUL HUMAN (inside and out)! A beautiful female! You have this charisma about you that draws people in to you, you're obviously very smart, you speak well when you're clean and sober and this interview showed that so well! I'm just a Texas girl whose obsessed with Soft White Underbelly and the work that Mark does. I have extreme depression and anxiety, PTSD, ADHD, social anxiety, insomnia and a mood disorder. I'm also a recovering binge drinker and dabbled in coke for a few month's over six year's ago. I don't drink anymore and it has completely changed my life! I also don't have many "friend's" as I have trust issues so I spend the majority of my time alone in my apartment after work and on weekend's. Regarding that my best advice is sit with yourself clean and sober and alone and make a list (daily if you need to) of everything you love about yourself and be still in the moment and try and learn to enjoy your own company and to be comfortable and happy alone. You're a strong person and learning to be alone and be okay with it in my opinion gives you more strength.

'Rebecca' is insisting he wants to 'chop his d*ck off'. all in all, does he strike you as someone to enable by referring to them as the wrong sex just because he says so and just because it's considered 'kind' and 'on trend' to enable this particular 'brand' of mental illness? we do not enable other dysphoric, dismorphic mental issues in the same way. for example: people joke a little or feel sorry for, say, Caroline or other 'psychotic' drug users reeling with trauma. we don't instantly reinforce and agree with every psychotic or deluded drug user. nobody, no matter how much we try to wave our woke-wands at it in support of them, can change sex.

Another observation is the re is a shift in energy and a quickening of speech, then a complete withdraw into La La Land whenever Mark brings up specifically his/her mother.

It pathologizes an entire sub category of males (and females) whose personalities are not stereotypical of their sex. Its a placebo treatment at best, that reinforces the very sex stereotypes and homophobia which can lead to HSTS people experiencing severe gender dysphoria to begin with. Long term, it introduces even more physiological and mental health problems than it solves by telling the person they are correct in believing they are not acceptable just as they are.

Many people are so close to homelessness, living check to check or dependent on city housing or swamped in medical bills and debt. The point is its close. Don't even take your shelter for granted if you are rich because it can all go up in flames or get broken into... life is always such a fight. Just keep swimming I suppose.

I love how her brain makes connections. She fluidly moves from one topic to another based on an idea from a single word. It's incredible to see her brain work in real-time.

I think it’s flight of ideas and it’s hard to tell whether it is a symptom of underlying mania/psychosis or an attempt to medicate mania/psychosis or both.

[@YochevedDesigns]

@@curiositykilledkat1 I think that it may be all of the above. I get the feeling that Rebecca may have a genius IQ. Often people who are geniuses can be driven insane by the mundane world around them. It's like they are too beautiful for this world, and can't contain themselves. When combined with mental illness and the attempt to self medicate, you end up with a kind of high class word salad.

I do really have a love for Rebecca. I instantly click on her videos. She has so much to give so much unused talent. She'd explode onto the scene if she really puts the work in and gets healthy. Hope that's in her future she deserves the world.

[@noelwiland6223]

Rebecca was/is someone’s precious baby at some point. I truly wonder how she was as a child. I bet that imagination was wild. I love her on this channel & she is wildly entertaining. I love to see her when she’s lucid like this, but I can’t help but think how heartbreaking this must be to those who really know and love her. I really really hope that she can find that inner peace she has been searching for. Whatever that looks like. ❤

[@notever_everytime5074]

It sounds like Rebecca was sold into a private adoption by his birth mother (whom Mark has located), to a wealthy pedophile. Rebecca was clearly raised (per previous admissions) in a very wealthy and aristocratic environment before being booted out with an NDA having aged out of his adoptive father's age preferences. There is massive trauma for Rebecca to heal from, and I doubt contact with his birth mother will help that healing process. Intensive inpatient for trauma is what Rebecca needs before anything else.

Articulate and so interesting. There's such an awareness of literacy and poetry there, this interview is so moving. I love the sound /depth of her voice. A wonderful, musical voice. There's something so dark inside with a brilliant light desperate to burst through. Let it shine through girl Good to see her clean and sober. So very intelligent. That voice is incredible.

The more I see and hear interviews like this, the more I have to accept that it is a mental issue, and a framing issue. It sounds like he said he feels inferior as a man, and thinks all his problems will go away when he becomes a woman (which he simply can't do - its purely definitional and cosmetic). I can't help but feel that if, like any person who isn't happy with how they feel they're seen, will be miserable until they accept themselves as they are.

If he gets the sex change he will be dead by the end of the year. The surgery is a death sentence.
