When a Random Man Stumbles onto Transgender Videos

This is a dear sweet moment of when I was able to meet a stranger from half way around the world who stumbled upon my videos accidentally, while he was looking for fitness transformation videos. He ended up following many transition stories from the trans community and has been a strong ally, providing support and networking-- just because he initially clicked an unintended link! Thank you my friend, for all that you do.

I have just come across your channel.After you mentioned about how it feels to see your body change I have just looked at your oldest videos and you look like you have progressed so well.

[@ClosetTransgender]

That's sweet of you to check out my videos. So you are a random stranger as well! Welcome!

The wonderful world of KZbin! When my nephew came out as trans KZbin was my saviour and teacher. Real people telling their stories helped me understand and support him and my sister. We all have our struggles in life, it's wonderful to be able to learn and support each other with love.

I "stumbled" across you and some others when I was looking up make up tutorials. I found PrincessJoules, who is MTF, and she had some amazing makeup videos. I decided to click around on her channel and BAM!

[@ClosetTransgender]

You went down the rabbit hole! Welcome! I'm so glad you made it!

[@JollyCelery]

+ClosetTransgender Ha, ha, and I found such a handsome rabbit at the bottom :-)

[@ClosetTransgender]

We're in the underground, a place of magic & mystery! ;)

[@JollyCelery]

+ClosetTransgender Boo YAH!

It's great that you were able to interview Andrew who has shown so much support to many many members of this community for so many years. I've also admired his willingness to learn and contribute.

[@ClosetTransgender]

You deserve the same homage. You've been there since the start for many trans people out there. That kindness goes a long way. I am so thankful, I know you've touched lives.

[@tobyr3]

+ClosetTransgender - Thanks for the kind words Forrest.

Oh man, this is amazing! This is basically what I'm trying to accomplish with my books: find people who are not personally involved in the topic but are willing to learn and broaden their mind and put aside stereotypes, judgment and ignorance. Well done and respect for Andrew!

[@ClosetTransgender]

Thank you for your work! I know you have already inspired & educated many. Blogging, vlogging, writing & speaking-- there are never too many people doing this. Each voice matters and I respect you to the utmost!!!! You have made a huge difference in my life. Thank you!

[@pmbluemoon]

Thank both of you for this wonderful video, uplifting and heartwarming!

Suppose I had a similar experience like the man in this video. I stumbled across trans videos about three years ago as I'm interested in gender and how society defines us. I'm cis female (if I have to have a label) but I still feel a massive disconnect. It's not dysphoria - it's something else. Regardless, the whole issue has opened my eyes and I find it kind of fascinating to talk about.

[@ClosetTransgender]

Yes, it's important to explore the structures we are born into, ask the questions, consider possibilities! I'm glad you are watching, you've had so many interesting comments and your presence simply makes the world a better place!

[@RubricalLou]

+ClosetTransgender Thanks! Happy to see another video, I had missed you!

[@tamboodle]

We need more Andrews in the world! What a great discussion! This gave me some much needed hope, thank you for sharing : )

[@ClosetTransgender]

Oh I'm glad! One never can see all the love a d acceptance surrounding us, but it's out there! Thank you for the comment.

[@NikDaviesGuitar]

Just goes to show what great work you are doing with your videos. You're doing great things for trans education and representation around the world.

[@parkershot]

Another great video! Thank you both for sharing this awesome story.

[@ClosetTransgender]

It was a great pleasure! Thank you for watching!

[@thelogicallunatic6004]

You really should have your own talk show man! you are a charismatic and brave guy with a unique talent in softly attacking important issues with anybody. Have you ever met a transgender person who has been stealth their entire life, without surgery? And/or that's a subject I would like to see explored.

[@sammcbride8013]

I love your interviews! This one is sweet!

[@krw72]

Really miss you on here. Hope all is good

[@MyUploadedLifeJD]

Supportive people are great :)

[@ClosetTransgender]

I'm so thankful! You are supportive too, I love it.

[@MrJimmyBeat]

Big love out to that random dude!

[@lokilane1261]

nice conversation

[@ClosetTransgender]

Thank you buddy buds.

[@miekhead]

Hi clonefriend! My housemate / best friend is doing something very similar. I think she now knows more trans people than me on youtube and it helps her understand a bit more.

[@ClosetTransgender]

That is wonderful. Each one of us facing this struggle have unknown effects on everyone around us. Likewise, the people who chose to learn more, explore diverse stories & topics-- those individuals also grow, deepen & benefit! We are all in this together!

[@charliestrickland6194]

Wow! Cool vid and great you got to meet in person! We need a lot more Andrews in our lives!

[@ClosetTransgender]

Indeed!

[@Naturesrhythm44]

Haha yay a New zealander.Don't often see someone from home pop up on youtube transgender videos :)

[@krw72]

Hey man, how's it going? Would be good to hear from you soon.

[@TheSLOfox]
