Thanks for being honest. I've had doubts too, and it's made worse by how doubts and worries are weaponised by transphobes. Also I felt the same way about things not feeling right immediately - like my parents calling me my male name, it seems weird because I'm not used to it. Being trans is much more complicated and diverse than solely the stereotypical idea of a trans person who "always knew".

you hit the right spot here. I'm 3 months on T and I still have some fears and some doubt, but it doesn't mean my identity isn't valid. thank you for this video, really

Your _identity_ ? You should find yourself before making decisions about ANYTHING in your life. Are you so attention starved you'll do anything for a glance? That's f*king sad dude.

thank you for this! i have just recently started medical transition after years of debating whether i could deal with NOT doing it, and i've been having major doubts and worries now that this is becoming something that will be permanent. even though i've always been more masculine, genuinely thought i was a boy and that everyone was just confused until i hit puberty, and i've been openly non binary-transmasc for years, the constant transphobic rhetoric i experience and people telling me "just give it more time and you will accept that you're a woman" and things like that has made me question myself. it's reassuring to hear something like what you've shared from another trans man.

Im 1:1 like you!! I'm pre T, all of these things made me think ill regret my transition if im not trans even though i KNOW i really need it. Ive had a pretty happy life as a girl, i (mostly) like my body, make up, fashion, im okay with my period. I realized its not about the typical men stereotype, but about the social role i play - that makes me uncomfortable and makes me feel like im not in the right social group. Thank you for sharing your experience, im glad i found this channel ❤

OMG YES. I’m pre-T too and I’ve been struggling with doubts lately, but you hit the nail on the head. I feel so much more comfortable being socially perceived as a guy rather than a woman.

As a trans woman, I also relate a lot to some of the points you mentioned. After I realized many things related to gender are just cultural stereotypes, things became much clearer to me.

fantastic video, I really appreciate all the points made. my friends and I will often discuss how having doubts within your transition are normal, but hearing your experiences especially about appreciating womanhood and not experiencing intense dysphoria are really affirming to my experience and it's nice to hear other people talking about it💟

i’ve been out as non binary for three years or so, and only recently i’ve been questioning if i wanted to transition, i’ve been feeling very confused about it because i’m sure i’m non binary, but the fact that i was gonna lose this part of “girlhood” as you said was so scary, even tho girlhood in general never felt quite right cause i never felt part of it completely. thank u so much for this video, it makes me feel way less alone and scared of transitioning 💗

I was just in generally unhappy and didn't know why and I was put on depression meds and all that and all they did was make me feel numb, and though I still have issues with my emotions, they have become more manageable because I have figured out where they come from. People may be like 'well how did you not know', and I want to respond with: when you have had a default your whole life, you don't know any better.

Thank you for this great video. It takes courage to share such personal stuff and real kindness and empathy to expose yourself in the hope of helping others. You're really a great example of a good person. I relate to every points of your discussion except maybe for missing girls clothes. But I really related to the doubts and the not despising your feminity. Personally, another thing that makes me doubt sometimes is that I think I'm realizing that for me it isn't a life or death situation. I think I could survive going through life as a cis woman, though that would feel personally exhausting because I would still have the desire to be a man. So I guess for me it's a matter of to what degree of happiness I want to live my life and what I'm willing to risk to get to that happiness.

You're going to my "goat" videos with this one, loved the sincerity about these doubts that I (as a questioning transfeminine person) have that I don't see too often with other trans people, so I felt kind of alone and invalidating myself, but it's not all about that, it takes time to sort things out and feel better and better with yourself. Thank you

Thank you for the videos on doubt. I've been out as a trans guy for almost two years now and I'm 4 months on T now and I'm still working through a lot of those feelings. I was really scared I wouldn't like my voice when it dropped but I do like it. Had a nice singing lesson yesterday and it feels great being able to sing lower notes. I'm still kind of scared about a lot of my transition. Especially top-surgery wich I'm working on right now. It is a lot to process and videos like yours really help with that.

I relate to knowing how it feels to live as both genders. As a trans woman, I am in a place where I can relate to just how hard life is for men too. That’s why I feel frustrated at some feminist corners where they view male troubles as fewer and lesser, when many cis women haven’t lived as a man as I did, and are sometimes ignorant of how both sexes suffer, no more and no less than the other. I recall being upset at how some feminist peers would be so sexist and cruel in how they treated and generalised men, and as someone who lived as one, that personally hurt me. Being trans gives one a unique angle of having lived in both areas of society which is quite cool.

I discovered at like 6, starting the “latent phase” (a Freudian’s phase about the child making friends only with the gender of belonging. Freud only thought this for cis people but it’s actually a good way to spot some trans people too) where I praised having friends of the opposite gender. However, I knew I was trans at almost 18 years old!
