Lol, I feel like I sometimes forget that my grandparents came of age in the 60's and were probably a lot more rebellious than I am lmao. Recently I needed to get a dress shortened for an occasion. I got it back from the seamstress and tried it on while grandma was at our house. When I put it on I realized the seamstress had cut it a bit shorter than I intended. My mom was like "I think it's too short, it's not formal enough", to which grandma replied "oh don't be such a prude, she's young, she can show a bit of leg" She wore her fair share of miniskirts in the 60's that's for sure lol

I had a straight friend in college who didn't know much about the LGBTQ community but he asked me questions and was super receptive when I explained. A guy in my class was very homophobic and started being more vocal about it, and while everyone else in my class ignored it because "he was just too nice and harmless", my straight friend confronted him and asked him why he thought that way and tried to explain to him how his vocal viewpoints are harmful and make others in our class feel inferior. It didn't make that guy change his behavior a ton, but the fact that ONE straight person in my class stood up for me and my fellow gays when others brushed it off as not a big deal made all the difference to me.

The male complimenting another male (regardless of sexuality) should be normalized as heck. Girls are so openly loving with other girls about complimenting them on anything. I once was in a public restroom alone (or so I thought) and was really enjoying my outfit that day. I decided to pose for a mirror selfie to save the photo because I just felt pretty, but then a girl walked out of the stall and we made eye contact. I immediately put my phone down and was so embarrassed but she immediately ran up to me and said “Girl, you better lift that phone back up to the mirror and take that photo because you look GORGEOUS!” I laughed and shyly took the photo and then we just both gushed about how pretty we thought the other was. I wish for men to be able to have that same experience. It’s so special and you really feel like you’re connecting with someone when you just say something kind to them just because you have the capacity too. MEN, this does NOT minimize your masculinity!! Lift up your fellow men!!

He's the sort of ally who accepts one's sexuality as part of one's totality as a person: one's being rainbow doesn't dissuade him from a potential friendship, though I've seen him gracefully turn away both women and men who've come on to him. (FTR, he isn't one for touching anyone, and is asexual to my [mildly frustrated] demisexual; regardless, neither of us can [or wants to] conceive of a future without the other by his side.)

They had been keeping this tradition for almost 50 years ever since they started dating as teens.

That story of the supportive grandma reminds me of my own late grandma. I never came out to her, but she often talked about her childhood (or teenage) friend who was gay - this was in the 1920-1930s - with nothing but acceptance and kindness. She grew up and lived most of her life in a tiny rural village, and not in the most accepting of areas, and her own life wasn't the easiest, but she often mentioned that she wanted to always support those who were vulnerable. There have always been people who are accepting and loving, it's not something the younger generations came up with.

@@leorojas1572 don't listen to the transphobe. They just want a reaction and their opinion is meaningless anyway. Keep on being you!

A little story as far as grandmas go: When I first came out 4 years ago, I was really worried about one of my grandma's reactions since she's more conservative than the rest of my family, but she ended up okay with it, just a bit confused. She struggled more with my name and pronouns than other family members but I could tell she was trying and that's what matters so I was very happy with her response. Fast forward to last November when my family visited her for the first time in a while (living very far away). She had no problems with my name and pronouns which was already great, but then it went further. We were talking about me finally trying to learn to ride a bike (I failed to get the hang of it when I was younger, never got away from training wheels) and how the bike was too big for me so I couldn't sit on the seat. She then basically says- in much more polite language- to be careful not to let the bar hit me in the balls. I thought nothing of it since I actually *had* gotten hit between the legs and it really hurt so still good advice, just felt natural. A bit later, she suddenly realizes, "I forgot you were trans!" That was the biggest wave of euphoria honestly, I wish my mom hasn't chastised her for mentioning it (didn't have the guts to argue with my mom and start a fight). It's honestly the best feeling when someone- especially someone who watched me grow up- forgets I'm not a cis guy because it shows both how thoroughly male I look, and also proves how fully the person accepts me as male, because that means they're not thinking of me as a guy who used to be a girl, or like, semi a guy, I'm just a regular guy to the person who forgot I wasn't assigned as such at birth and that's exactly what I want. Side note, I've finally started letting myself admit to myself that I've got a more feminine side. I've never really approached the subject even in my head because I was scared if I let myself be a bit feminine then that'd mean I wasn't really trans or wasn't really fully a guy. But I'm very sure I want to be perceived as male... Just maybe sometimes as a feminine male. When I move out from my parents' (while they do support my transition, they clearly believe in "men looking like men", so I don't think they'd understand) I intend to explore that side of my self expression when I can afford it. I've finally let both my partner (who I'll be living with when I move out) and my best friend (who's only 15 minutes away from them) know, and it's such a relief to have people support me dressing a little more feminine sometimes (not fully crossdressing or anything though) while still recognizing me 100% as a guy. I'm absolutely comfortable in my fully masc clothes, I just want to expand from there on days where I'm not feeling dysphoric or needing to look particularly professional or anything. I've always said I support men presenting more feminine if they want and that doesn't make them a woman, so I guess I'm about ready to be the change I want to see!

I was in a line to buy some pretzels once and the girl in front of me was heccin stunning. She looked like a fairy. She turned around and shyly told me she liked my hair and of course I blushed. I felt like she was hitting on me a little bit and I was so flattered, even though I’m into guys. So I told her she was pretty and I think we both left happier that day. People should just be nice and honest regardless of sexuality

The nail varnish one reminded me of a strange conversation with my family. My nephew saw my sister painting her nails red and he wanted his nails done too. My mum and sister told him he couldn’t have red nails like mommy. I assumed it was because he’s a boy and was going to object, but then they said he could choose a pastel or sheer varnish because those are more age appropriate. I’m still not sure why my family insists on considering certain colours of nail polish inherently sexually coded, but at least the rule is being applied evenly regardless of gender

I feel like the "red nails are sexually coded" thing is a byproduct of Hollywood and the like. It's quite often that the aggressively sexual women (or hookers, or the villainess) are shown as having red nails, often long and/or pointed. Meanwhile, heroines/good girl stereotypes have neat, trimmed, natural or lightly colored nails. Just like the way that red lipstick is often associated with more amoral or immoral characters. As a result, this has gotten coded into a belief that only someone more mature should wear red lipstick/nail varnish, and that until you reach whatever indeterminate age milestone, you should stick to the "good girl" colors. This is the only explanation I can conceive for it, at least. I know I heard the same thing up until I'd graduated high school, which was shortly before I found out that purple nail polish existed (it wasn't something I can recall being able to find until the 2000s, and it certainly wasn't a common thing when I was a teenager in the 90s!). After that came just about every other shade in the rainbow, and I think my mother gave up at that point in trying to tell me why I shouldn't wear this-or-that color. Hilariously, I didn't even actually wear red nail polish until I started working at a theme park, where the dress code when I was hired was so draconian that you could only wear French nails or non-glittery, non-neon, non-metallic nail polish in "pink, red, or your skin tone."

I don’t remember this story, but my mom told me about it a couple months ago. I was watching Steven Universe, and two of the characters, Ruby and Sapphire kissed. I grew up in a entirely straight family, and I hadn’t been exposed to LGBTQ+ yet, so I asked my mom “Why are they kissing? Aren’t they both girls?” And my mom replies “They are! They’re kissing because they love each other.” And my response to that was “Oh. Okay!” Presently, my mom will tease me and ask if I have a crush, and she’ll say “Is there any cute guy or girl in your life?” And I’ll get alllll embarrassed and go “nOoOo mom.” I appreciate her lol.

It's basically how the handle is molded, the crevices on a right handed handle aren't curved in such a way for fit a left hand, so we've just gotten used to resting our thumbs on a lump or mound of molding rather than a cradle for the thumb. You'd definitely feel the difference holding a left handed molded handle. On top of that the blades are flipped so, right handed scissors in left hands have the inner blade as the blade that moves up while the other moves down, but when made for left hands, the inner blade goes down and is the one that has the slight angled edge, with the other one going up this allows us to more clearly see where we are cutting because the inner blade is no longer obstructing our sight line. We've all just figured out our own way of getting around these things, and it becomes normal to us, but then when you get a left handed handle, you realize just how many work arounds your brain has had to do to cut a straight edge! XD At least, that's the experience I've had. It's like you didn't know what you were missing until you do. Nice meeting a fellow lefty! Hope you are well!

Storytime: I was in college studying in a very dude-heavy field, and shared most of my classes with a group of younger guys who radiated a lot of frat boy energy. One day during our labs they were discussing a mutual friend that they all knew was gay but wasn't out yet. They all kinda made a pact that, while they weren't going to pressure him to come out, they were going to create an environment that would make him feel safe enough to come out because "He's been there for us when we were having a rough time in life, now it's our turn to be there for him." Guys it took this bi woman a hot minute not to cry in front of them, I was so moved.

Slightly unrelated BUT: My biology teacher was talking about reproduction (thank god not human reproduction yet because I have two mums and its always awkward) but she said that being trans was a whole different thing but still really important and it made me feel so happy :)

The problem with combined shampoo and conditioner is, that they counteract each other. The shampoo is made to de- grease the scalp (and hair close to it, as the lengths mostly aren't greasy) and the conditioner is supposed to make the hair more shiny and smooth. Using conditioner on the scalp makes it "grease-up" faster. The lengths of hair are actually dead material, conditioner lets them seem more healthy and helps to de-tangle them. :-)

for the person that was asking ab "he/they, she/they" pronouns, i think the person answered incorrectly. though they were correct on how they are used, your gender does not determine your pronouns. you can be cis and use he/they or she/they pronouns, you can be a boy and use she/they pronouns, you can be a girl and use he/they pronouns. remember that gender≠pronouns and that anyone can use any pronouns they like (as long as they are respectful)

I’m a teacher, and I have some non binary and gender fluid students. A couple of my students use he/they or she/they pronouns. I always use they/them pronouns for those kids, especially if they come up in discussion with other faculty because as a group of adults in the community we are very bad at being sensitive to trans kids (I teach in a single sex environment) I know that this is not the best place to ask for advice, but if anyone who uses multiple pronouns wants to chime in, I’d appreciate knowing if my using they/them all the time for students who are out at school as non binary is the right choice. A lot of my colleagues seem to view “he/they” as an excuse to willfully ignore the student’s gender identity and exclusively use “he,” and I am coming from a place of wanting to create a safe and inclusive environment for all our students.

@@captaincaspian42 I would absolutely pay money for that

Back in high school I used to paint my nails. According to my mom “guys don’t wear nail polish”. Some guys don’t you’re right mom. But as The One I can do what I want because I decided that.

Needed the Positivity today!! Love you Jamie!!💛💛💛💛

I am a Cis woman and I love watching videos like Jamie’s to learn more about how people who are LGBTQ+ feel. I already learned a lot, not because I never cared about other peoples rights, I always had friends from the community and I never felt like they were any different, but because it’s not me I don’t understand all the layers of feelings they feel or also terms they use. I want to give my knowledge on to my children hoping it will be a better world for all of us in the future.

3:46 “love is stored in the goldfish cracker” Well yeah, what else is the little pocket of air for?

5:43 just wanted to add that I go by he/him, but am also fine with being called they/them singularly. I am (probably [& this could change]) cis, but usually when someone goes by he/they or she/they, they're not.

i also go by she/they despite being cis but it's because my native language doesn't have gendered pronouns so it just feels more normal to me

Well, cis people could be he/they or she/they, it just depends

As some already stated, it depends The most important thing is how YOU want to label yourself if you want any label at all Remember that it can change through your life and that's absolutely okay! Good luck on your journey

Been going through a rough time lately, but the sheer positivity and joy shown through your videos has done wonders to bring my happiness up! Thanks for the great content Jammi 🥰

So wholesome and exactly what I needed this evening, thanks Jamie! Also I don't know why but the fact you currently have plum body wash really made me giggle ahahah

Jamie, you always make my day so much better! 😁❤️

Not only do I love this video, but this is one of the best and sweetest comments sections I've ever seen. Good job, everyone!

my grandma is starting to get the hang of they/them pronouns after talking with my friends and her friends kids. she’s a bit behind the times but she’ll definitely do her best for others. it’s what she’s always done!

my aunt also talked to me a bit about figuring out who you are. sometimes it takes a lot of time to figure out your sexuality and identity. she thinks we’re trying to figure it out too fast, but she’s right about one thing: take your time. go slow. you know yourself better than anyone else knows you.

Your pfp is cute af

Was feeling down and spotted this video in my recommended videos. So glad I clicked on it because it made me feel all warm and fuzzy inside!! Thank you so much, you have a really friendly personality 🥰

8:10 Yeah, that bench cudve used just a final line sayin "And here's to plenty more" so as to make it not feel as final as most bench dedications are.

I’m a fairly straight person and tbh this video makes me really happy to know I’m doing the right things to support my trans friends. I had two in Highschool who both were born feminine but are now masculine, seeing them now that I’m in college 4 years later just makes me so happy. They’re both such sweet guys and honestly I don’t care what gender they are, both are absolutely hilarious and I’m so lucky to have them as friends. This video about made my afternoon, so I’m glad it showed up on my Recommended, have my sub! Hope to see more wholesome content like this, and have a new channel in my repertoire!

On such a dysphoria-heavy day this has been an absolute joy, thank you for sharing!💖

Jaimeeeee!!!!! You look so gooooood!!! Your transition is so good, you look like you are really settling into your masculine looks/vibe/experience. I’m not sure if it’s ever a “done” thing, but you look so naturally manly in a way that really seems so whole. I love your love, you channel and that you are still out here in these KZread streets being a hottie and teacher and excellent partner and all of it. I am so happy seeing you have and give love, especially to the divine and gorgeous brown babe Shaba. Y’all are adorable together and a force to be reckoned with.

OMG,, THESE IMAGES AND YOUR REACTIONS, THIS VIDEO IS SOOOO ADORABLE!!

Hey you yes you remember to take care of yourself gosh darn it, you are always valid, and I love you and care about you so please take care of yourself 💜💜🤗🤗💜💜🤗🤗

@Silent How about you be like your namesake. Silent.

This was a fun video. Thank you. It is nice to see people being sweet and thoughtful.

Made me tear-up from the cuteness. also, imagining you & Shaba shop 🥺🥺🥺

I work in mental health, and am a gay man. since coming out at work I have now hadtwo trans clients. I was rewarded by allowing the one who was mtf to sign her name on something official for the fist time. She was so confused when I suggested and then insisted.

3:00 Oh, I feel that with the left-hand scissors! My Mom randomly gave me a pair of scissors, the last pair I had was in school, which is over ten year now. and for damn 10 years I'm forced to use right hand scissors, because I don't cut many things. So I was super happy when she bought me a pair ^^ Now I am able to cut things nicely, and not rip it apart!

Somethimes, when I feel sad, the thing that makes me start laughing out loud joyously the MOST is something small and unnoticeable like at 5:15 Thank you so very much, Jamie!! 💖

Found your content by accident and I must say, thanks for doing this. Between you and MXR....you make my evening complete.
