My accidentally coming out story: My parents were out of town, this usually presented me with the opportunity to dress fem around the house. This time I decided to paint my nails. Later I got a call from work, and they asked if I could come in to cover a dish washing shift. I wasn't out to anyone at the time, including work. I arrived at work, and was just getting to my area of the kitchen, when my supervisor looked down at me and started laughing. I didn't realize until he pointed it out that I had forgotten to remove the nail polish!!! I would have been totally embarrassed, if not for one of my co-workers later coming over to me to ask if I was trans. When I told him I was, he said he had a feeling, because I had long hair, and he saw the HRC sticker on my car. He then told me that he was trans too, and told me his preferred name! I continued to wear nail polish to work from then on. To this day I can only remember the co-workers preferred male name, and I wouldn't have it any other way.

THATS SO CUTE WTF

I’m Transgender (FtM) and I’m not out to my classmates yet (The majority of them are immature boys who call people gay as a joke) We were assigned to do an art project that involved us drawing stuff that represented us on an outline of our hand. I drew the pride flags that represented me at the time (Asexual, Transgender and Biromantic) and the assistant teacher saw it. I went to the restroom because I needed to and when I came back my class was outside for gym. I walked into the room and the assistant teacher walked up to me and said “Hey I noticed the flags you drew. What pronouns do you prefer and do you want me to call you something other than *dead name*” and I almost cried. I said now both anxious and happy as fuck “My pronouns are He/Him and I’d like to be called Asher.” And she smiled at me and said “Alright Asher If i accidentally misgender you or call you by the wrong name please correct me!” We talked about it for the rest of the way downstairs. If you somehow find this comment Ms.Harvey you are my favourite teacher and I really appreciate your kindness. It made my day. Thank you! Edit: Wow it’s been a while since I commented this haha, I’m now out to most of the people I know and most of those people support me :)

This isn’t a fail, but here’s a nice story: A few days ago, my sister’s friend came up to me at school just for her and my cousin, who was with her, to say hello, but then she said “Oh, I also wanted to ask you something. I saw the flags on your wall the other day and I want to make sure I’m doing it right: what are your preferred pronouns?” And I told her whilst struggling to keep my composure, as that had been the first time someone in person asked me for my pronouns (they’re they/themc btw). And then she told me she’s demi, as well, which is so cool! And this was all keeping in mind for me the fact that number one: the two flags on my wall are the demisexual and agender flags, two *very* obscure flags for anyone who isn’t acutely aware of the lgbtq+ community, and two: I’ve known this girl since she was born because we’ve gone to the same church together and our moms are friends. We live in the dreaded South in an area where there’s a Baptist church around every corner, and the church we’ve grown up in is very openly not supportive of lgbtq+ people. Her brother, who is my age, is not nearly as chill as her, and I had already had been a part of a conversation before where him and another guy we’re spouting homophobic rhetoric. I had assumed she was kind of the same way, especially I’ve seen some of my sister’s other friends turn up their noses at gay people. To have her say that to me was like whiplash. It just really opened my eyes and made me feel seen, and now we wave at each other when we see each other in the parking lot. I always get taken aback when I see people from my area being chill with lgbt+ people, especially with how prevalent Christian life is here. My sister’s friend asking my pronouns, my sister playing a video game and not batting an eye when there’s a transgender character in it, my cousin’s girlfriend saying my pride t-shirt looks cool. It’s all mind-shattering to me. Like, haha, people accepting me? What a concept! But it really did make my day.

I kinda came out as Non-Binary by accident. My convo went like this: Dad: She wants a new haircut. Mom: Omg again? Dad: She said her hair is too short. Me (with headphones on): They Dad: Huh? Me: oh.. uhm... If you're referring me please include my stomach too. I got away with that-

My friend accidentally called me by my chosen name infront of her parents and I blurted out "it's a different classmate" while she blurted "it's a pseudo name" and before that she used my preferred pronouns (They/them) infront of her dad and her dad became suspicious of me. Then her parents looked at each other and nodded. They now know I'm genderfluid while my actual parents don't.

I accidentally came out to my mom a week or two ago I'm still figuring out my gender but I'm pretty sure I'm a trans guy. I've felt progressively more and more uncomfortable with wearing feminine clothes. My family is religious and I've grown up going to church. At church, the norm is that the "girls" have to wear dresses/skirts and the "boys" have to wear suits and dress shirts. I do NOT feel comfortable wearing a skirt anymore so I asked my mom if I'd be allowed to wear a suit to church. She answered and then asked me about my gender identity. She asked, "Do you feel like you identify more as male than female?" I was in shock but I hate lying and I hate keeping things a secret so I just told her how I felt. Ultimately I think she supports me and is doing her best to learn more about being transgender and I'm hopeful for the future. I'm not out to anybody in my family except her and my cousin but I'm crossing my fingers that religion won't create a barrier between me and my family.

Every time i go somewhere with my mom its a loudly declared: “Hi my DAUGHTER... SHE... HER...” (so I relate to the deadname story) ... I came out as gender questioning about 2 years ago and am still very much in that place. I don’t know if I'm trans or not... maybe I am self-diagnosing/convincing myself or having “body issues” or just hated sexism like they would say. Maybe I have some internalized homophobia or transphobia. All I know is that my “old feelings” haven’t vanished and she/her still doesn’t feel right all the time. I gave up trying to talk to my parents or at least my dad. They weren’t “unsupportive” so to speak. Believe me, the first thing they said is “We’ll love you no matter what.” Just, the main thing for my dad revolves around some buddhist principles that we are in charge of and can change our thoughts. (So, I am allowing myself to “embrace negativity” and attaching negative thoughts to she/her pronouns, etc when i say they don’t feel right). My mom’s thing is that she knows that its “outdated” to think gender and sex is the same but believes that “you can dress and present however you like no matter your gender, its just a label that we shouldnt be defined by.” (Doesn’t like labels in general). Main thing shared point of contention is: “but why can’t you do all of that as a girl.” For them, its a matter of embracing myself (as who i am aka “girl”) or not (by being “someone else”) Part of me wants to try and talk yo them again but last time it tore apart our relationship and they are so stressed rn. I hint to my mom. I “openly” wear a chest binder, but for all they know (especially my dad) that’s just an expression thing and I got over all that years ago. Guess what its still here! (I just stopped talking about it...) I’m 17 starting 4-yr college in spring or fall and it just feels like a good place to start thinking abt trans stuff... but I’m scared that won’t be me then I have to deal with all of that. Plus then I feel so incredibly disrespectful to all the people who are “actually” trans. I guess what I want is my parents blessing to be out as openly gender questioning while I try to find people/therapists to talk to. I have a feeling this is gonna get lost in the swirl of youtube comments. I apologize for rambling, just feels good to type it out i guess 🙂 If you made it this far... well thank you. I’ve been following this channel for years now and Jamie and all you comment people always make me feel so happy and well... safe and supported. Apologies if I have caused any offense.

Hey, take a breath. You're not offensive. You're not disrespectful. You have EVERY RIGHT to question yourself, your identity, your sexuality, for as long as you feel the need for it. Keep in mind that those things are not necessarily fixed, too - whatever you feel is right for you at this moment might not be the best thing tomorrow, but if you find something for today, that's enough. Don't listen to haters, gatekeepers, anyone who tries to invalidate you and your feelings. You owe them nothing. You are not in this world to fulfill anyone's expectations. You are a unique, valid, precious person. Sending you a hug and good thoughts!

Thinking you might be trans is a pretty big sign you might be trans. But anyways, I feel that all that exploring feelings about gender does, regardless of what you decide, is help dismantle harmful binaries. And figuring out who you are isn't a linear process. I know someone who grew up as a girl, started thinking that didn't fit them in their teens, got involved and learned about the trans community, and decided they just hated sexist expectations and stereotypes of womanhood, not actually being a woman. Then in their late 20s, they were like, oh wait, shit, I am trans after all. But they spent so long thinking of themselves as a woman, albeit an unhappy one, that suddenly flipping to being a guy and using he/him was too much, so they used they/them for a few months to help them transition happily. Now he's out and happy, post-T. Gender is complicated, and you are not disrespecting trans people who are confident in their identities by questioning yours. Best of luck on your journey!

Is it just for attention?? Are you _really_ sure?? Is it just sexism?? What about all the problems when you tell peeps?? Don't you need more muscles if you _really_ were a guy?? Is it just because you're an ugly woman?? It is so draining and awful to always question yourself, but I did the exact same thing with my sexuality. Now, I accept myself as asexual and I hope to be able to accept my gender, too. The same goes for you ofc!! Idk if you'll ever read this, but you are _so_ valid!! You deserve all the acceptance and respect in the world!! No matter what gender you are. You probably are the gender you think feels right when you ignore everything others may say about it. It doesn't matter what your dad says (I mean it does have an effect on you- you feel shitty and invalid, but it doesn't have an effect on your actual gender) or what your mom says, or your friends or whoever. You are the only person who could ever know who _you_ are. I really hope you can accept and love yourself!! =:)

I just wanted to share something positive about my mother. When my sisters and l were young I was probably in 5th grade and they were in 3rd. So this was about 2005 being trans was not spoken of much. A documentary came on the tv at the hotel about young child who said their penis did not belong on them and they wanted to cut it off. After we watched the documentary my mother turned to my sisters and asked if we felt comfortable in our bodys. No, none of us were trans or fit into to the LGBT group but It still ment the world knowing that we knew our mother was going to accept us no matter how we felt or who we may be attracted to years later.

I “came out” when my mom dug through my room while I was at work. It was pretty common for her to do this and she was dedicated, looking for one of my shirts. Well she found something she did not expect. I had been experimenting with gender and such for years and had tried things such as binding and packers. So… she found my stash and sat down and had a talk with me. The talk started with “*deadname*, you... can’t even put in a tampon...” she clearly thought I had bought a toy. I explained to her what it was and what I was feeling. They haven’t been easy on me and have said bad things, but it’s a hard change for them. Anyway :) I recently got my first short cut and am old enough to start T without their permission so… my family is much more supportive, and it’s getting better.

It's so nice when these comments and stories start with "I'm ftm" or "I'm mtf" or "I'm non-binary" or something else like that.

I think my two funny trans 'fails' was getting the guts to ask the announcement people during the practice run of getting our diplomas if I could use my chosen name instead of my birth name for my high school graduation and they weren't sure if I was allowed to so told me to ask my principal, he was in the cafeteria with them only a few feet away, I asked him and he Also said "Idk ask the -announcement people-" I stood between them and laughed saying they both said the same thing. They laughed with me and said it was fine, though they called my mom to confirm (she said yeah duh it was cool). I became the first student in my county to use my chosen name instead of my birth one. The second one is less dramatic but really funny. I was at work and grumbled to a new coworker that I needed to change my pad, she very confused said "What? You don't have periods." I just stared at her holding back a laugh before she went "Ooooh" I felt so euphoric having passed so well.

I changed a letter and said that's it, lol. I'm lucky to have that clear from the start.

When I was in class one day before I knew what trans was my teacher was taking attendance by telling boys to raise their hand, and then girls, and I didnt raise my hand at all,my teacher saw this, and after class she said she wanted to talk to me. I thought I was in trouble, and she told me "i noticed you didn't raise your hand for girl or boy in class" I respond "am I in trouble" she continued "absolutely not, i wanted to make sure you felt comfortable with being called she or if you wanted to go by something else. If you'd like i will explain to the class when you are ready" the next day a began going by my current name and using he him program. She was the best teacher ever.

I came out to my dad through text(we don't really talk, I only live with my mom). And all he said was "Hey Leo[my name lol]. I like Greg better." Then later he asked if I got my "trans card" and I still don't know what he was talking about.

I'm going to came out as NB and present my new name to my parent in a couple hours I made cookies white the trans flag to came out Wish me luck✨ Actualization : AAA I DON'T DESERVE MY PARENTS I wrote a letter cuz I don't have the balls to say it. So I open the door and I went to the bathroom. When I came back my dad say hello and my preferd name I cried and he hug me And now everything's Is just like always •́ ‿ ,•̀💖 So new actualization: Its 3 of february. Until a few weeks my mom call me by my dead name and refer to me in femenine. Until i snap and i yell about it. Since then she ACTUALLY tries to call me Marc or refer in masculine. So if you are struggling with the same problem (dosent respect your gender or calls you by your dead name and looks like they didnt even try to change) TALK about it, YELL if its necesesary. Let them now that they are hurting you.

Same. Was a closeted, miserable homophobe, am now a pansexual, relatively happy Dungeons and Dragons player. How the times change... Yes, D&D is the opposite of homophobia. THIS MAKES SENSE

I was at my band concert, and I had to use the washroom. As I was about to walk into the lady's room, this little boy walks up to me and goes, "That's the girl's room." I just smiled at him and said "Thank you" and walked in. Me, a deeply closeted 12 year old: *Dysphoria panic*

So funny story...I accidentally came out to my English teacher I wrote ‘Alexander’ on one of the forms we had to hand in, instead of my birth name (I wasn’t concentrating very well) and I only realized this once I was out of class. I was too scared to go and talk to her about it because I didn’t know how she would react. but she didn’t mention it for one or two weeks I just thought she glossed over it. Well yesterday she asked me if I preferred Alex or [deadname] and I- she’s one of the few accepting adults in my life and gave me such a confidence boost with this

Fun story, last time I got a haircut(and my first masc haircut) the hairstylist had to get my name and I panicked and told her my preferred name while my mom was right there(i’m out to her but she’s not very supportive) and she(my mom) just stares me down and in a tense voice just says “your real name, sweetie.” and makes me say my dead name to the hairstylist who, thankfully was very understanding and cool about it but uhhhhh yeah not poggers

I chose "Teaching people that biological sex is not the same as gender" and I said "because I haven't learned about it in school so I had to learn it from the internet... my teacher then said "Oh so you searched for it???" My brain just went what do I do about this??? "Um... no... I-I read about other people..." I was completely red in my face and shaking... hopefully I played that off well enough... 😅

ahrgljashrgjlashrglri this is why in my college theater program and now in my orchestra (both very LGBT friendly) we always sent/send around the roster as it will appear in the program during rehearsal and have everyone initial to verify it appears as they wish or make any necessary corrections. Serves a double purpose- catches accidental typos and avoids accidentally outing people.

WTF there was this ad about food and then jamie: "something smells like food..." Ahhhh my fourth wall hahaha

My sister (not my real sister I’ve just known her for so long she might as well be) told my science teacher about me being trans and she was really supportive because she actually has a wife and she fully respected my pronouns and name so I started putting Emmett on my papers and I was not ready when she called out Emmett when passing papers out I was so happy and all my friends were clapping and a lot of stereotypical guys we’re very confused it was funny I never really told them because honestly I wanted to see if they ever understand later (they didn’t lol) but now I’m in a different grade so I don’t have that teacher but my health teacher and art teacher know so that’s nice they were always my favorite

That was great!!! I have many stories, but my all time favorite is the first experience I had in my freshman year of high school. It was the first week of High school for all us Freshman, and for me, I had just cut my hair and began socially transitioning. Throughout the day I went by the name Dmitry (Because I look like Dmitri Shostakovich when he was 19, he was a great russian composer), When my sixth period French Class started, mon prof. called roll using and said my dead name. At the time no one seemed to notice that I said “here” to a feminine name, and even though I was as red as a tomato, I Just played along like absolutely NOTHING happened! About an hour into class, we were all singing a song (I forgot what it was)and he counted out all the guys to sing on one side of the room and then the girls onto the other. When he did so, he counted me as one of the guys! I was SO shocked, and I smiled so big that a couple of people stared at me in confusion but just went with it like it was normal. Since we were singing and I was me, having naturally a higher voice, Isang in the deepest register I could (since I was Pre-T at the time) and I passed SUPER well!!! Throughout the class he referred to me as un garçon, constantly, and it made me smile every time. Then toward the end of class I made the most ballsy decision I’d ever made. “I’m going to come out to him” I told myself. Now given my high-school is very small only about 950 students total since its one of the hardest high schools to get into for my district. There are a lot of supportive students and le musée du Louvrestaff there because it’s a school in Sac, CA, US.) He was very welcoming and charming but he was also very open to new ideas or questions that other students had! Plus the teachers are not allowed to discriminate against a student’s identity or sexuality , by law! So I said, fudge it! When class ended that day I ran to my locker to get all of the stuff that I need before the hallways got packed (…aaaand so I could leave faster). When I got my stuff, I began walking right toward his classroom down the corridor. Unbeknownst to me, I caught a glimpse of my teacher walking right in front of me and in a panic I said “Monsieur!” He turned around calmly and gave a warm welcoming smile. (It was the warmest, most genuine smile I’d ever seen, I’ll never forget it...anyways...) Walking side by side I introduced myself to him again and told him how I was trans, and that I really appreciated how he saw me as a guy, and apologized for “confusing him” when telling him my birth name, when in reality he wasn’t! He just totally fine with it! So he asked me what my preferred name and pronouns were, and he’s used them ever since! He is my favorite teacher and the most down to earth person I’ve ever known. So much so that when I’m around my friends I refer to him as my “adopted father”. We (my classmates & friends) all agree that he is definitely a father figure to many of us and we all miss him dearly due to quarantine. He and I are still in touch even though we aren’t in the same classroom anymore, but I’m glad to have had the opportunity to meet someone as respedced, supportive, and down to earth, as he is. P.S If it weren’t for him I couldn’t speak fluent French! So I guess I owe him !!! Lol 😂

I remember one work friend (you know, friendly, might join them for drinks on a Friday, but we wouldn't go to the movies or anything) just said one day in conversation at lunch "I'm trans!". I was a bit surprised but just said "oh right. Do you want me to call you something else?" He said no (he already presented as male, and i had idly wondered but assumed it was none of my business and a bit rude to quiz someone on their gender and genital history) but asked me not to talk about it with other people, and we just carried on talking about whatever it was. Probably customers being arseholes. Much later (probably a year or more), he told me that I was the first person at work he'd told and that he'd had a vodka miniature in the loos first. At the time I'd assumed it was probably something everyone knew, and it made no difference to me. He said it was a brilliant, but perhaps slightly anticlimactic, response and helped him feel more comfortable coming out. He said something like he'd been binding his (apparently sizable) bust, or maybe something else, but was using a means to minimise his breasts, and it was becoming difficult. When I found out, I felt really touched that he'd told me first, though i still sometimes wish he'd said I was the first. I didn't run my mouth off, but I could have so easily put my foot in it when out for drinks or something, and i sort of wish I had mustered something more supportive, reassuring and profound than a mildly interested "oh right"

I was an ‘independent’ kid growing up so when I figured out I was trans at 14, I waited 8 months to make sure then just casually started transitioning under everyone’s noses. I told my mom I preferred hoodies and boxy T’s, said I needed a binder for gym, slowly started changing my vocal patterns, etc etc Then, 9th grade came and there was another girl with my dead name sitting directly in front of me in most my classes so, naturally, I told her that I was okay with going by my last name and she could keep the dead name. Not only that, but that was the year the school implemented a universal washroom that my class was assigned to use. In other words I was super lucky- Until I wasn’t, And I was backed into a wall I was told near the end of 9th that I had to accompany my young cousins to a massive indoor waterpark That was to be the first time I went swimming in over 2 years. The only bathing suit I had was a 2-piece *with cups.* And I had 2 days to come up with a solution And as you may have suspected, that wasn’t enough time to carry out anything. Thus, though I tried, I wasn’t able to convince my mom to get me trunks. I ended up going in shorts and a T. And, well, my mom confronted me when I got home, made me cry for some reason and squeezed it out of me. The best part is literally nothing changed- I continued to independently transition and am still doing that to this day. Waiting to turn 18 so I can start T

My boyfriend just came out to everyone as being trans and I'm so happy and proud for him ❤️

My friend was trying to explain me being NB to some old friends and she said “She’s not a boy or a girl,she’s a “They””

My friend is trans. Here's some dumb yet wholesome slip ups and stories. -I accidentally deadnamed him when ordering him hot chocolate in starbucks. I apologised so much. -When he came out, I didn't hear him properly and said 'What did you say (deadname)?' Oopsie. Now here's some just wholesome stuff. -I helped him buy his first binder -I went to the clothes store with him to get his first ever men's clothes -I helped him learn how to style and look after short hair, since he'd had super long hair before -Our friends are really supportive and love helping -Me and my friends are buying him his official name-changing papers soon Edit: We managed to convince his parents to let him change his name to a gender neutral one. They wouldn't let him do his chosen name which is annoying but it's better than nothing.

I’m not trans myself, but I’m a supportive ally. I found Jaime the start of this year and I instantly loved his content. He really is the sweetest & his videos make me so happy. I also have a bunch of trans friends & a non-binary sibling and this channel really helped me educate myself on that kind of stuff. I will be forever greatful for coming across this Chanel. Although I don’t completely understand since I’m cisgender, I really want to be as supportive as I can to the trans community. If your trans and your reading this, just remember; your valid & I love you! 💙💗🤍💗💙

I'm always so happy when people mistake me for a teenager because I know that I can either look grown up women or a young boy (I'm a non-binary afab so seeing people thinking I'm a teenage boy and then being confused by my age is pure gold)

I'm in the Theatre department of my school, and we're doing a play that involves a gay dude coming out to his dad, and he uses being trapped in a closet as a metaphor. Needless to say the dad takes him literally and just thinks the boy is scared of closets. Then the dad talks about how it needs to be "fixed," talking about the closet fear. Eventually the son refers to himself as gay, and the is basically like "le fucke?" It's not swearing, it's french. Jamie should know.
