Thank you speaking honestly. I saved this video to show my very left wing mother, the creepy things like the kid in cutoffs twerking at the pride parade. My parents took me to pride parades in the late 70's/early 80's. They think that it's the same today. I was young then, but I still know it was, regular people who happened to be gay marching for fairness.
I remember this specific moment when I was around 8 years old. Growin up as an imaginative only-child used to playing alone, one day in that childlike innocence I wondered to myself "what does it feel like to be a girl?" So I went n got 1 of my mom's least favorite dresses from the laundry, put it on n played around n twirled around like a little girl would for like 5 minutes. Then I was like "oh, that was fun" took off the dress, put it back in the laundry n went right back to playing like a little boy with my toy soldiers, plastic guns n toy cars n never did the little girl play pretend thing ever again. If I were 8 years old today in 2023 n somebody from the TQ+ community saw me play pretending as a girl for that short 5 minutes, I have no doubt they would've pushed me to make a life changing transition I would later regret. No shade to all the people out there with genuine body dysmophia, y'all have my support. My ability to be imaginative n playful has resulted in my having a few acting gigs under my belt among the vast variety of endeavors I've pursued in my life as a heterosexual man. My current goal is to marry my baddie fiance n have a couple of kids her within the next couple years. So glad I grew up in the period in time when I did.
As a gay person myself, I have to agree. Dragging LITERAL KIDS into SOMETHING THAT IS MENT FOR ADULTS is just INSANE to me. Thank you for speaking out :)
Right, I remember my first drag show about a decade ago and it was at an adult’s only venue, a nightclub. And that was the norm. They were pretty much exclusive to adult only venues and clubs. I’d see drag queens at family festivals every once in a while, but their performances were never sexual. Usually they were doing comedy or giving genuine motivational speeches about BEING YOURSELF. It’s wild to me how much it’s changed in such a short span of time.
The problem is that when someone actually points out all the problems, everyone just pulls out the “transphobic card” and they win. simple as that. stupid as that
+@@jennyxvfx Nah, the answer- and it's unfortunate that it's come to this- is to accept the label and say "now what?" Take the power from the word. I really wish it didn't have to come to this.
They dont win when they pull that card if you dont allow it to get to you. If you are ever in a situation where someone pulls this shit just ignore it lol
It's not stupid per se, the ideology is designed like that specifically. Language is weaponized and they don't do it randomly but select historically emotional terms that will have a response.
I’m a straight black man I don’t know how this video ended up on my timeline but I’m glad I watched it you speaking truth bro keep pushing this message out
Straight white man here. I was hesitant to click the video because of how crazy everything is now. This dude is speaking hella truth though. Mad respect to him.
As a whitish heterosexual woman, I have to say: Amir is everything that i hope to find in a future husband. And as the sister of a gay man, who is one of the kindest, smartest, most incredible people I’ve ever met, Amir is everything I hope he finds in a future husband/partner 💕
@@pablobogopablogames2270ah jeeze... Thats so inspiring to me. I'm afraid people will acquaint this crazy ideology onto all gay people. I feel ashamed of my sexuality now, or at the least embarrassed. :(
I was never homophobic, nor transphobic but since the lgbtq + community started targeting children, I am gradually becoming transphobic because it’s cruel to manipulate children into hurting themselves. Gay people don’t belong to this community anymore, any trans people who has sense doesn’t either. Just know you are loved and respected as you are, you are not the same as these people.
I remember being called "transphobic" when I was infuriated by the fact that a 16 year old can get a hysterectomy just because she identifies as a boy, but a fully grown adult women like myself isn't able to get a hysterectomy because "what if I change my mind later?" We live in a backwards society.
My neighbors daughter got breast implants at age 12, because the money "talked". She has back problems and is taking a prescription for adolescent arthritis. She's gonna have problems.
My aunt, in her 70's, is gay (lesbian) and hates the 'gay' community, especially now. She said what 'they' (her words) are doing in the last 3-4 years have destroyed what she and millions like her struggled for decades to gain acceptance. She is so sad right now and is about done.
@@Jessicajanelove The biggest irony are the LGBTQ activists making the worst stereotypes of LGBT people. They're making people more "phobic" than usual. I'm not scared of them, I'm annoyed and pissed about the Rainbow Mafia shoving their mantras down my throat.
Same here. The media is the one to blame. I don’t like the pride flag either because of how the media made it look. And CZcams has a lot of homophobic people and it’s annoying to see their hate comments.
I'm a gay man (using my meme alt account) and I totally agree with your aunt, I'm only 24 and I hate how everything that the older generations fought hard and long for has turned into in the recent years
The next time someone accuses me of being transphobic, homophobic, or against the LGBTQ+ I'm showing them this video to prove that not all people in that group think the same.
They'll say he has internalised (all of the above)phobia. Anyone trying to say this about people going to far with racism, misogyny are told they have internalised whatever.
I dont think kids are meant to be there, kids arent meant to be in political parades or whatever(that also goes for independence days and shit) @@zaadus112
The problem is there was never an ethical and official conference of different adults within the lgbtq+ community that represented different sides of the community to discuss and propose ideas on what is and isn’t acceptable at these parades, where maybe even an official vote was held afterwards. We need more organization and coming together and less division and chaos in this community or we will be our own undoing.
As a lesbian I agree 100% I’ve been shut down by (ex) friends mentioning what should be common sense no nudity or bdsm at pride parades which kids will see…I’m so tired of being scared to open up about how I really feel. Glad to see other normal gays in the comments.
As a straight man, I don’t take my kids to strip clubs. How are the parades and drag shows any different. I don’t even take my kids to music festivals that may get out of hand, because my job as a parent, is to protect my children. Thank you for using your platform and voice for this purpose. No one listens to the white, straight, man. Us parents need your help. Thank you
As a gay man, I don’t recommend you nor your kids go to the parades, they are hyper sexualized, inappropriate, and super creepy. It’s the worst of gay culture run rampant. In Seattle it used to really bother me when I would see kids at these parades, with people walking around with rainbow dildos strapped to a harness, it was sickening. I hate what gay culture has become, it used to be about our rights, and our ability to be part of society. Now pride is a whole weekend of block parties full of orgies and weird sexual themes. Not all gay men feel it’s appropriate, or normal. it’s deplorable, and degrading to the community.
@@Renzee yeah true i think you have confirm your an adult if you listen to wap. But thongs should be banned at family friendly beaches like there a ceartian beach condos that are clearly for kids and I think you can take a child 13 and up to the nude beach but dont quote me on this edit: its sixteen ive known this six I was eight becuase my parents asked my brother if he wanted to go with them yuck but my point being is thats not a big deal i still dont think twerking in front of a kids face is prideful
I'm 100% all about this! I'm gay and conservative and am basically shunned by "the community." I am sharing this with EVERYONE I know. Thank you for providing such an eloquent and rational video.
Actually the gay community who feel uncomfortable and not happy with the current in your face rainbow ideology are probably in the majority. The most vocal critics of this also happen to be gay ( ie Douglas Murray ).
I would say be moderate who before Covid probably listen to mainstream media, after listening to minority conservatives (yes that’s what I like calling it as it best way to explain it was them that showed me different views). 😅
I don't understand why we're teaching kids about sexuality / gender transitioning before we teach them about how babies are made and how their bodies are going to change with puberty. When I watch these cartoons I can't help feel disturbed because it feels like indoctrination.
Representation has actually increased phobias. All those haters out there had nothing to fight before. Now they have lots to fight. My friend told me this.
It is indoctrination by the evil globalists who are trying to take full control of the world right now. It's inversion of society and nature to cause confusion and chaos. It's also lowering fertility rates and such. They want depopulation. Look up Klaus Schwab's great reset. Or the book about the new world order written in like the 70s.
I was right. The community you worked for made your people looked bad and blamed it on my people now they'll pay for what they've done to your innocent soul.
Fr. People by and large are polite. I’m not gonna go out of my way to call them names or tell them they don’t “pass” like they think they do. But at this point the demand for respect will not be entertained by them unless they have it for others. I’ll only be rude if they want to invalidate others consent, autonomy, and definitely not about to go after kids.
Haha I'm fond of saying that too. I'm not the "come out" type either so when people find out and ask why I didn't explicitly tell them I usually say: I'm not ashamed of my sexuality but I see no value in being proud of it.
@blue_rose__ define Patriarchy. Just so you know, your "patriarchy" doesn't give a shit about the population no matter if we are white, black, yellow, female or male
Well said Amir. Couldn't agree more. I do not want to be called a Cis woman I'm just a woman. I didn't chest feed my kids I breast feed them. I'm not a bleeder I menstruate, I'm not a birthing person I am a mother.
I agree with you and am gay myself. This will destroy gays and society. It has become a toxic social engineering movement and panders all to the trans.
You can voice your disagreement with gender ideology, and this being done to kids and women, more and more. You can help change the average normie's response to what's going on, by speaking out, at least to the people around you. You can make it known that you think this sh*t is CRAZY, and harmful, and dangerous! Also, seriously..? The new documentary that just came out, Affirmation Generation, is freaking AMAZING!!! Currently trying to encourage all the normies in my life to see that one. Great way to peak people, or at least to get them started down the path of SERIOUSLY questioning this stuff. And the more people wake up and object..? The more we can turn this around! It's like that story about the Emperor's New Clothes.. If NO ONE says out loud that he is naked..? People will keep pretending like he isn't! But the more people bravely say it..? The more the spell is broken! And straight men absolutely CAN be a part of that. Men like you are also important.
Fr nobody had a problem with me not knowing my sexuality. I was terrified my close friend would avoid me since I had a crush on him and not everyone would be supportive and would be mean to me. I came out to my close friend in tears of him abandoning me and he was fine with it(I knew prior he wasn't gay he stated that every chance he got. I had also a proud atheist antigay so I was worried and I came out to all my class one month before school ended(ended this friday 28th april) and my classmates gave me ovations. I regret not coming out sooner but I'm happy I did. People accept me because of me as a person, not being pressured into gay tolerance
He IS the majority of the LGBTQ community my whole life and I am 43. My entire life, all they wanted was to be treated with the same rights and respect as everyone else, and I believe they achieved it. Only in the past few years has crap gotten out do control with transitioning children 37 different genders and pan sexual vs bisexual and all this other BS
As a straight, conservative, white, Christian man (feeling like the most hated group lately), much respect to you, young man. You speak many truths. Be well.
That's because (at least in the U.S.) that is the most hated group. Instead of moving away from hate based on gender, race, sexuality or anything else, it's just increasing.
@@dennisddt1146SAY IT LOUDER FOR THE PEOPLE IN THE BACK!!! People think that we have progressed, but truly we have not progressed at all. There’s still this spiteful mentality towards those that aren’t like them.
😂 Really? You feel that way because we no longer kiss your feet. You want to be oppressed so bad. Just because other people are now being given a seat at the table, you feel like you’re hated. We just don’t to cater to your fragility anymore.
@@Yams-Hams7734 Ok, of course we have progressed. Just look back to the 50s-60s even 70s and 80s. Its slow and bumpy, but we are moving forward. Conversations and videos like this will help, but slower then we would like.
YES!!!! As a bisexual woman, I am beyond TIRED of seeing my “community” corrode into an over-sexualized cult. I agree with every single statement you made in this video. We need to take back what it actually means to be gay, bi, lesbian, and transgender. All this non-binary, queer, and pronouns stuff has become redundant. Thank you so much for speaking up!!!!
@@xeganxerxes4319 that is a great point! We have always called it "same-sex" not "same-gender" relationships. This is a total made up fad that sets us back. Women and the lgb community fought really hard to have civil protections and rights just to have it undone by men invading women's spaces, bullying gender "conforming" people, and dangerously grooming kids to be sexualized and medicalized.
I'll be honest, I literally don't know what queer means. I thought it was a slur from ages ago but I don't understand how it is used today. So confusing.
@@teamtundra2619 no, he's right. G in LGB here, and Amir is speaking what many of us think, but have been silenced and cannot say openly :) Thanks Amir, thanks Marty.
@@teamtundra2619 That's fair. I just have personally acknowledged things have gone too far. I was cancelled by my "woke" friends because I (gay man) had said I preferred a masculine men. I was told that was "toxic masculinity" and homophobic....for having a dating preference. I haven't personally experienced a trans-person saying I'm transphobic for not wanting to date a trans-man, and if they ever do I'll be ready to tell them to shove it to defend the right to my sexuality XD
@@kevindon2133 I a bi and I feel it too. At some point I felt they were perceiving me like a pervert because it seemed like all I cared about was their genitals...
It really lost me as well as soon as they started involving children... I feel like after 26 year in the closet, when I came out I wanted people to know that I was gay and took on the "gay" personality, and it did some good for me for a bit, becoming proud to be myself. I think it happens to a lot of gay men, they take on this "persona" to broadcast "I'm proud and not afraid of who I am".... but they don't know how to drop that persona after a bit and actually be themselves. But being 32 now, the past year I feel like I'm just learning how to actually be myself again. I realized I don't like the glitter, flags, bright colors, and hyper sexualization of every conversation. I want to be stoic. I want to be disciplined. I want to be taken seriously. It took several years, but I've finally learned being gay is a very small part of who I am, and doesn't need to be my main personality trait.
That's interesting, eh? As part of coming out about part of yourself you became other than who you are for around eight years. The human mind seems rather prone to self-abuse. It is good you are now in place to recover yourself.
Most actual lgb people are against involving children, it’s just the minority speak the loudest. Most sane lgb people are doing their lives in private (Like 90% of people should).
It's down to the wanton acceptance of the "minor attracted person's " rights being bought into the TQ+ so called community. Include the children and you control the future.
They're involving children because they're trying to groom potential options. Because there are so few gay/trans people, it's less likely one can meet someone they're genuinely interested in. And, of course, some of them are just pedos.
YES!!!! You don't need to let that define you. And frankly, if you appreciate the big things in life, and how we have a purpose(especially if you are religious) it does not have to be all of who you are
I also saw a drag queen on youtube recently who said (paraphrasing) "What is it about all these drag shows in front of children?" She said drag is adult entertainment and it's not a place for children. She's 100% right.
@@corvijord Idk if it's the same video cybiz is talking about but I know one about a drag queen called Kitty Demure, she has a video titeld "drag is not for kids, thank you"
the real question is why THOSE drags dance half-naked in front of kids and encourage them to perform in front of other adults. They won't make me believe they don't know what they are doing.
@@corvijord I'm not if the video abnoxious alien suggested (below) is the one I saw a little while back. It may have been the same drag queen in another video? Somehow it seems slightly different. If I come across it, I'll post it but this is the one abnixious alien suggested: czcams.com/video/2jF7W3N1T7U/video.html
It is so bizarre people are normalizing this? Creepy. But we do have a history and even in present time of enjoying the sexualization of minors...it's all over t.v and movies. So I guess I am not surprised.
Exactly, same with the kid pageants. Why would you want your kid to be dressed up like that and shown to adults? Like do you really care for your child’s safety?
Technically by law everywhere, what is going on in the community with kids is extremely illegal. It is highly illegal to show any sort of sexual acts or media to kids. These people should not be parents, and there are plenty that should be behind bars.
Is sad that we live in a era where cancel culture is getting too much attention that ppl can easily call you such things as a "bigot" for having common sense now and calling some issues of specific minorities or communities. I personally believe cancel culture really ruined gen z at this point.
Fr like at this point I don't really associate with the lgbtq community anymore as someone who is Pansexual but I support the rights and freedom of everyone tho.
We went from tolerance and acceptance, to complete and total DOMINION rrrrrrreal fast. They have forced their way into every single aspect of society virtually overnight. Infiltrating our schools and messing with the precious minds of our children. They demand subjugation and actual *worship.* I am fkn OVER THIS 😡
Thank you AMIR, I’m a 62 yr old gay man. I’m married, hiv poz, in an interracial marriage. We stumbled on to you. THANK GAWD you said this! Many of us have been saying this for 2 yrs
I'm glad I'm not the only one thinking this. My husband and I are raising a teenage relative. They only ever talk about being gay, how the straights are disgusting (actively calling my husband and me gross, loudly in public), and how awful it is that they get misgendered in public by strangers (they don't dress or try to represent themselves as masculine). I get it. It doesn't feel good to be called something you don't want to be identified as, but expecting people they may have 1 interaction with in their entire existence to accommodate their fragile ego/identity is ridiculous. I'm seeing many young people feel that they need others to tell them who they are/reaffirming labels, and I'm so tired of it; if all it takes for them to have a mental breakdown about a stranger mislabeling them, they have bigger core issues to resolve.
I’m so sorry that this relative who should only be grateful to you and your husband is hateful towards you because of the toxic brainwashing he or she has been subjected to. This person is so lucky to have your support and understanding. God bless you and your husband ❤
Really hope someday they grow out of the narrative, look back, and thank you guys for taking care of them despite them being actively hateful towards two people who looked after them. I'm sickened by the indoctrination of hate and fragile ego that's being pumped into the public sphere for young kids.
I agree. These people say they are being themselves and to accept them, yet they are so unbelievably fragile that if they get called the wrong thing then they breakdown. Literally. I’m a woman and if someone called me a guy then I’d laugh. Like who tf cares what someone says? It’s not true!
You know what's ironic. They don't like discrimination yet they do it freely towards heterosexual people hypocrisy at it's finest. I'm an Antinatalist who doesn't see myself as part of this insane group. I hate the group with a passion.
My uncle was a HUGE LGBTQ activist and famed makeup artist beloved by the community. The second he got AIDS he was blackballed and treated as an outcast. It was when I realized the "love and acceptance" message they pushed was bs He died sad and alone. Absolutely disgusting
83 year old woman. Came out about 35 years ago. Thinking it’s time to go back into hiding. How can we think that there will not soon be an enormous backlash to this really horrendous turn. Thank you for expressing the fact so eloquently that this is not what being gay is.
@@paulcarmi8130 there is going to be a backlash, a generation is growing up that has never seen the "discrimination" the LGBT community allied to fight, they'll grow up seeing the public LGBT community being the one shutting people's voices, destroying their lives and sources of income for daring to say anything that's not in support, doxxing, bullying etc... In this new generation's eyes, the LGBT community will be the evil one that needs to be defeated. It's the cycle of life, the swinging pendulum, nothing new under the sun.
I do worry for the normal people who happen to just also be gay the pendulum always swings, I just want to go back to Martin Luther King's idea for the future.
My stance is simple. I don't care what you believe, who you love, or what's between your legs. But the second you start involving kids in something they have no business worrying about, that's where I draw the line.
Except if you did care about their beliefs, you would have seen this shit coming from a mile away. And people did. The slippery slope is absolutely real.
@@ShadowmancerLord Yea thats plain old bullshit. Having a 7 yr old girl cry because she wants to be treated like a boy is as stupid as having a 7 yr old boy cry because he wants to be treated like a man. You're a child, you have no idea how sexuality works and god forbid if anyone treats you like you do. That's not plain old bullshit actually, its one of the most disgusting ideas you could ever muster. Mutilating the genitals of children just because they appear to not want it at the moment? What the fuck?
I am a 65 Year old straight grandma and I am so happy to hear your voice. You are right, you are an intelligent individual, do not let anyone put you in a box.
Completely agree! The T (and Q tbh) are tarnishing what thousands fought for us to have and I’ve always wondered what people’s gender issues/kink have to do with our same sex attraction.
CZcams recommend me your video and I'm glad. I'm a straight white guy so I'm always expected to STFU so I'm glad there are people like you out there, being sane and speaking their minds.
CZcams directed me here too, so glad I heard your opinion. Often times im labeled as a TERF but im just a concerned mom 😫 i pulled my 6 year old son outta transphobia day at school and I stand by it. However I would never hesitate to explain his buddies can have 2 mommies 2 daddies. Its sad. I have supported the community but the sexualization is too much. Thank you for speaking up. Im worried I will be vilified like the Hijabi lady who spoke up against Geoffrey marsh.
I'm in the same boat, straight white guy, and if I don't completely agree with everything they say without question, I'm the devil lol. Glad Amir popped up on my feed
This video summed up everything I've been feeling about the LGBT community over the past few years as a bisexual black man myself. We need more people that are LGBT standing up and speaking out against the lunacy.
Why LGs though? I feel like this has nothing to do with me at all. I don't have kids, I don't particularly like them, and I'm not their parent to be raising or controlling what they consume.
I understand that the black american community tends to be more…traditional when it comes to identity. So we see a lot of gay black men who feel compelled to be gay but not too gay.
I am a bisexual woman and I love this video and agree so much with you. Thank you so much for speaking up, nowadays it seems like people do not use their brains anymore. Can't stress this point enough: leave children alone!
The pride parades are insane, leave the kids out of this please. Also I do agree with you, I don’t think we should have a whole month to celebrate who we have sex with. Maybe a pride DAY would be okay 🤷♀️ but not a whole month I feel like it’s too exaggerated
I'm a straight Black man and I can't thank you enough for making this video. You, my brother, have a powerful gift in your ability to communicate and transmit authentic energy. You're a true bridge and deeply appreciated.
i’m bisexual and i’ve been thinking all this for ages. whenever i try to have some civil discourse online about where the community is going i get flamed. i’ve been seeing more and more people saying they want to separate themselves from the community because of everything you said. hell, one of my closest friends is trans and even he told me he doesn’t feel like he’s a part of the “community.” i really appreciate people like you speaking out and sharing your opinions about all the insanity that’s been going on for years. thank you, amir
This is what is happening to the gay community? Here are the reasons why you must leave and not support homosexuality. It's not what you think it is. Homosexuality & trans was practiced in ancient pagan cultures and it brought the brutal end & collapse of their civilizations and the same thing is going happen to this corrupted modern czcams.com/video/mxEGpyj3Xhk/video.html czcams.com/video/TBtkgWpRZx0/video.html czcams.com/video/Lxp97EIsraM/video.html czcams.com/video/mwc4UbvyxDk/video.html czcams.com/video/D45Mwt0S9t0/video.html czcams.com/play/PLrKOte6pE6LoGXy3Gqc0VEjYvubDFhfN3.html Testimonies of former gays, lesbians, former transgenders.

i’m a part of the lgbt community, but i’m also a detransitioner. everything you said was so powerful, especially the part about being yourself and not a label or a hobby. thank you for speaking out.
Same here. Its infuriating. The gay community are going to get the brunt of it. And most of us are saying.....Wtf too. This isn't what I wanted. Every weirdo now attaches themselves to the lgbt acronym. True trans has went out the window. Its all this weird carry on. I identify as this and that. My friends son came home from school and said he'd like to be a doggie. So my friend said well, You'll sleep on the floor in the hall. You'll pee outside in the garden. Explained the ridiculousness of it. What are the kids getting taught at school. All I ever wanted for the gay community was treated as equals. In law. Myself and my partner are just like everyone else. That's what I fought for. In schools just let the kids know in class that some other kids might have two mummies or two daddies. That's it. Nothing much. Now its getting scary. It's disheartening what kids are getting taught. Some of if is vulgar. And h feel the gay community are getting used to bring all this weird crap in. We have to make a stand.
Why do we keep separating ourselves into left and right? Like what even is that? It's stupid in my opinion, no offence but it just sounds toxic. Why can't we just be humans that have different opinions, I agree with both sides sometimes depending on what aligns with my morals and values, I've been called a leftist for asking people why they think it's acceptable for a grown ass man to threaten a kid because he was claiming to be a part of antifa, and people were saying "yeahhh he should've smacked him good" it's crazy to me, do you know what I'm saying?
As a straight, Christian, conservative woman, I stand with you. We have to protect the kids and we have to stand together against this authoritarian ideology. We can move forward if we stand strong and not cave to this nonsense.
It’s crazy how upside down it all is. When someone pointed this out in one of our PHME lessons the teacher told us kids that it was impossible for straight people, white people and men to be discriminated against, even going as far as to deny the fact that being male was a discriminated characteristic in the fucking human rights act which she had JUST referenced. She also made the point that it was impossible for a woman to rape a man and actively contributed to negative stereotypes of men, saying it was “much harder for us to keep it in our pants”. On the plus side, most people were wise to it. Even the people I had down as pro-LGBT were aware that it was insanity.
I am a strait 50 year old woman and liberal for whole of my life and always for human rights, but now, I am struggling with all of this craziness. Amir, you are the breath of fresh air. So courageous. Thank you for your honesty.
@@Will-eq6vy the Democratic Party didn’t believe in this nonsense 10 years ago, as the Democratic Party has become more radical those who don’t change their political beliefs due to their party are now seen as republicans, somebody who has the same exact views as 10 years ago will be called a republican, maybe you should stop letting your personal views get ran by your party.
@@r1tzy5551 Technology may not have been as good, but people still had a bit of sanity left in them. Now we have perverts doing sexual performances in front of children.
@@r1tzy5551you definitely missed out. Not everything was racist and phobic and we were all hanging out outside, listening to music, break dancing and showing off graffiti. Happy years.
Exactly. It used to be considered deviation of minors but apparently we forgot about all that.... When liberals and conservatives agree with no questions asked it's kinda obvious something stinks.... They want our kids. (Call me crazy)
More people need to hear this truth!👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽im a straight Christian and I aplud this video.this movement is aggressive and dangerous,and children are innocent leave them alone. We should be allowed to agree to disagree and still respect one another.
Bravo!! Thanks! You are speaking my mind, I am Mexican 42 yo gay man, I am “old” school I grow up in Mexico 80s and 90s without “community “ and I didn’t need it then and i don’t need it now, they wanna put us-as gays in the box, this community doesn’t represent me, I don’t need to be in that box, and sexualizing the kids is horrible and all the labels, it’s not a “ community “ it’s CULT, if you disagree with them you become their enemy. Thank you for your work.
@@OngGioi how so? Not all liberals agree with the craziness of other liberals. Same as I can’t blame all conservatives for the craziness of other conservatives. Get over this finger pointing and name calling. Those of us who are still sane need to unite and expel all the crazy coming from both liberals and conservatives
'from a straight guy' ? You are part of the problem, normalising this sort of language. No such thing as straight and gay, only straight and something went wrong
Straight man here. I have not been supporting the LGBTQ+ community as of lately BUT you've reminded me that there are still some individuals such as yourself in the community that are speaking out to this madness and I thank you. Keep fighting the good fight
As a gay guy, I seriously don't get all of this LGB stuff. I don't want to be lumped with the giant monolith with crazy people. Thank you for speaking out for all of us.
I’m a straight man, and I don’t give two fucks what you do behind closed doors. What I care about is people being able to communicate peacefully and effectively. Sir, you are setting an example that, honestly, needs to be followed by us straight people as well. You have an entire country that needs to be educated by you. KEEP DOING WHAT YOU’RE DOING!!!
Yup. You aren’t straight because you changed your pronouns. An old friend tried to “convince” me to be lesbian, before transitioning and then trying to force sex on me with their new muscles. I don’t trust trans people at this point. Whatever happened to “you can’t choose your sexuality”?
as a christian i constantly get called homophobic and transphobic. just because my religion goes against lgbtq+ people im not going to go out of my way to be mean to them. i have a friend whose a lesbian and a friend who is questioning her gender . My friends understand my beliefs and respects them and the friend who is questioning her gender alows me to use her original pronouns to respect my beliefs. just because im a christian doesn't mean i hate the lgbtq+ community. while i dont agree with it or participate in it doesn't mean i will do everything posible to destroy it. and i agree leave the kids out of it. i only know of the lgbt stuff because i am being taught it in highschool (i am a teenager)
I'm a gay man and I have never supported the LGBTQ+ community 95% of my friends and straight and have no problem with me. I don't even like the term Gay. I'm proud to be a part of the human race. I'm with you brother thank you for speaking out.
Thank you for this. Not long ago I worked as a bar manager at a gay bar that was heavily involved in the community. As a gay person myself, it was good to work at a place that held events that helped out homeless youth charities and LGBTQ charities. But each year, I noticed a shift. The community somehow went from fighting for gay marriage and equality (in the eyes of the law) to somehow demonizing other gay peers because they are white, oversexualizing absolutely everything, and denying basic biology. It became so toxic that I removed myself from it all and I couldn't be any happier.
Yes I agree. The pressing issues that are gay youth homelessness or gay oppression in other revert societies aren't addressed, but hey attack jk Rowling for expressing her opinions is ok.
@Paul-jf4gw bye you? Ok. Only you up here trying to stir things up for days now. I guess you're only of those jobless minions? Insulting name calling seems to be the only strategy of your kind. Says a lot about you in the eyes of others. Society doesn't like much those don't have good home rearing like you.
Communists have taken over the LGBTQ. Their goal is to divide and conquer little by little. That's what normal LGBTQ people see when these radicals say and act crazy.
I agreed with everything you said, until you brought up being racially discriminated because you're white. That's rich considering white people have spent centuries perpetuating GLOBAL economic and social divisiveness. You can't demand respect when your race still has indigenous lands under European occupation. White people have demonized POC for thousands of years. No one owes any more respect to white people than they have bestowed upon others. Your Caucasian racial category is literally dying out. As the numbers of your global human population takes a nose dive, hostilities towards white people is going to increase because the vast majority of the world's population are not white people. It is, what is it. I don't condone the discrimination of anyone regardless of race. However, that's the energy you white people put out, now the universe is calling back those results. The universe keeps receipts, luv. Karma is coming to collect.
Don’t know how this got on my recommended page but I’m so glad it did. As another gay black guy, I am just dumbfounded by these new developments, the worst thing is the politicization of so called “hate” and thank you for starting with that, it’s a blanket tool to shut down useful conversation, and to shame and shun others. Classic cult like behaviour if you ask me. I’m seeing more and more of us LGBTs speak up about this, so hopefully there’s still hope for sanity. Great video.
@@amirxodom You made some valid points, specifically about the exposure of kids to these strange carnivals. But you seem to not understand basic facts about being trans and trans healthcare. What makes them transgender is that they identify as something other than the gender assigned at birth. Everything else is merely what helps them with that process of acceptance. There's no delusion or mental illness involved there, just a deep seated neurological trait that can only be perceived by the person experiencing it. The consensus of serious scientific research and clinical experience is that gender identity is biologically rooted in our prenatal development, whether we are transgender or cisgender. Yes, transitioning is not a requirement for being trans, not all trans people want the available procedures or other ways of transitioning. A trans person is and always will be the gender they inform you to be. A tomboy identifies as a girl, a trans man however identifies as a man. Same thing with femboys. Transition for minor children is different than an adult’s transition. It is primarily social- preferred name and pronouns, hair, clothing, and the like. As puberty nears, the child’s physician may recommend puberty blockers- medications that have been in common use for other conditions for many, many years, whose efficacy and safety are well documented. These medications are not “hormone therapy”, they do not cause any changes. Instead, they delay the onset of any changes puberty might cause (breast development, voice deepening, etc). If these medications were to be stopped, the child’s body would progress into puberty naturally. No physician will perform gender confirming surgery on a pre-pubescent child, and in almost all cases will wait until the child is 17-18 before agreeing to perform any of these procedures. Hormone therapy would start in late teens, so they’d not be a “child” anymore but a young adult. Puberty blocker prescriptions are not written by a physician on a whim, there must be documented evidence that the child’s gender identity is insistent, consistent, and persistent. There is a medical protocol that is followed as per WPATH. Given all this, there is exceedingly little risk of harm to the child in allowing them to socially transition. Trans children, like trans adults, show marked positive emotional improvement when their gender identities are supported. I don't know if you realize that you are using TERF talking points. Trans-Excluding Radical Feminist (TERF) are women who exclude transgender women from the feminist movement simply because they were born male. They feel that transwomen are somehow diluting the meaning of what it means to be a woman. The reality is that TERFs aren't really feminists at all. They may have been once, but their hatred of trans people has driven them further and further from feminism, so they now promote biological determinism ( the idea that a person's role and status in life should be determined forever by the sex recorded on their birth certificate ) and solicit funds from extreme right wing and religious groups such as the Heritage Foundation. TERF groups have set out to deliberately distort government consultations by using misleading newspaper ads to harvest the email addresses of gullible readers, and one of their ringleaders has even produced a video encouraging men to take guns into women's toilets in order to “protect" women from the imaginary threat posed by a trans woman having a pee behind a locked cubicle door. TERFs don't like the term “TERF” -- whether they object to being called “radical feminists" or “trans exclusionary" isn't clear, so they have taken to using various other euphemisms instead -- “gender critical" seems to be the most popular -- but it's the same old irrational hatred, just dressed up with a new name. Regardless, as you may know by being a gay man, there's no real win in demanding justification for their gender identity/expression/existence. It just makes their lives harder and benefits no one. The goal for most trans people is to quietly blend into ordinary society without drawing attention to their medical past.
I’m gay and agree. People always ask about Pride events, I don’t subscribe to all that! I’ve always just been me and I’ve never forced me or my lifestyle on anyone or made a big deal out of it. I’ve never had any issues in 25 years. I like this guy! Kids should not have to subscribe to this and attend these events. I understand wanting your kids to accepting and not bully those that different, but this is out of control!
This guy is fantastic! I'm a gay man in my 50's and I feel so out of step with the gay community now and this guy has managed to encapsulate all that is wrong with it and a hugely positive and non hateful way. Go Amir! You get my vote. Well... Subscription. Really refreshing to hear people speaking sense. 😊
You aren't alone, I'm in my early 30s and I feel more alienated by the whackadoodle hedonistic political agitation gender cult known as the LGBT community than by anybody else.. Nowadays when I keep my preferences a secret it's mostly because I don't want to be confused with them out of shame
I commented the same thing. I’m gay as well and I never truly felt part of the community to begin with. Mainly because I don’t agree with putting labels on everything and everyone. Why can’t we just be humans and live our lives spreading positivity and lifting up others without the need to be called out when the group in which you are “indirectly” part of does something insane that you certainly don’t agree with? It’s truly a shame that society has to label everything they see as “new” or “strange”. But either way, I’m glad I wasn’t alone on the comments about this. 😂🤣😅
I 100% agree, as a gay man myself who marched tirelessly to earn our right to marry who we want to marry under the eyes of our country's law. It completely shames me to see what most of our pride parades has turned into, glorified sex shows with bondage gear and perversion..... It's depressing, and it's getting to the point to where it's been difficult for me and my partner because now we don't want to say we're gay for other reasons that completely are opposite of our sexuality. It's because we don't want to be associated with how over the deep end everyone else has jumped.
As a straight man, I gotta say it saddens me to see how the pronoun obsessed movement is really ruining people's perception of LGBT ppl. I've hung out with quite a bit of gay ppl, some trans too, and NOT ONE has acted like these crazy twitter people. You know who do though? Bored white women lol. I'm Norwegian though, so it's not as crazy here. Unfortunately it seems to be catching on, so I hope it's not the future here too. We don't need people to go back to hating gays, because I'm afraid that could be the result. Good video Amir!
I’m glad more people in the LGB community are speaking out about this stuff because straight people aren’t “allowed to”. Everything you said was on point.
For one, someone who actually sticks out is tell The truth yes Because people like us, the ones who are strata who understand the danger are usually labeled as that It's easier for than to do so because we're straight Now The world's literally flipped its head. Everyone thinks they're standing up for there race But they became the very thing they hated
There are sane trans people out there too. Blaine White and The Offensive Tranny are two CZcams channels that are transsexuals who acknowledge reality and are against all the insanity. I definitely recommend checking them out.
There's a lot but with media the extremes get the most attention and some will see that as the majority unless they know of people personally in said group. A good analogy might be if you're in a crowd of 1000 and there's 1 or 2 people yelling extremities, they'd get a lot of attention from those outside the group, but those within would understand he doesn't speak for the other 990+. People who aren't there and hear of it will think "what was wrong with x group", and because of the obscene scene created it'd get views for mostly the wrong reasons. But those who know people in the group would ask "what was with that fruit loop?". Another example, the few who riot and turn a protest into something that few were apart of, sport hooligans don't represent the %99 either and further more, yet a lot will see the majority as a certain way unless involved/ personal encounters throughout life.
I'm straight, but a black 36 black man with a family..booooom! You dropped nothing but facts.. this movement makes me reconsider what's right and wrong.. speak up.. say with chest... I couldn't agree more!
There are those of us that understand our world doesn't have to be accepted by everyone to feel validated. I honestly think it's very self centered to think that everyone must accept you. You're a breath of fresh air. We were doing just fine gradually becoming accepted in society without the government taking advantage of the community and shoving it down everybody's throats.. just another way to divide us so they can conquer.
Most gay and even trans ppl are exactly like this guy. Actually talk to them in real life. Don’t see what one a them on Twitter is saying and generalize their entire population
@@trenhen4311 yes, but the problem is that the people on twitter are the most influential majority, and I’m saying we need that majority to be people like this
@@wombly_1068 fair enough. The only problem I have w this video is the transitioning thing. I’m just a straight dude and I’m still kinda against kids transitioning. Just doesn’t seem right. However kids who don’t transition have a way higher suicide rate. So I’m kinda at odds. Yes u want them to be more matured before they make life changing decisions. We can all agree on that but I don’t want them to kill themselves. I mean idk man.
@@somerandomchannel382 I wouldn’t say the kid just won’t. Much less likely tho yes. Problem is a kid feels trans for long enough to know it’s not going away and the Kid may come from a household where the parents would disown them or treat them very harshly for it. So then they end up committing suicide.
Amir, I am a 50 year old straight black male who grew up dealing with a variety of societal issues but was taught to judge everyone and everything independently and not lump everyone into a box. I’ve never had an issue with the gay community until recently when all of the bullying started. You my friend just gave me hope. I hope everyone shares this video as you nailed everything 100%. I respect your delivery and the thoughtful calm way you broke everything down. This country needs to get back on track and stop dividing us all because of our opinions. Thank you for having the courage to step up when so many people afraid to.
From where I'm sitting you're just hating on trans people here. Just more gay people who no longer are the target of the hate so they hate. Literally just complaining about trans gender for 30 mins. Nobody is making you sleep with trans people. Legit moron here. Another gay man who is hateful
Much respect to you Amir Odom, I wish I had the wisdom you show at just 25 years old. Maybe my life would be a little different than it is. I think the only way we can get back to normal is if people from the gay community with more traditional values speak up against the extremists. Kids need to be left out of these things. What is it about that they don't understand?
Back when my ex-husband "transitioned" and started calling himself the "mother' of our children, the gay men I was friends with kept saying they have no understanding of "trans." They were just as disturbed by my former spouse's narcissistic behavior, which endangered our little sons, as anyone else. Thanks, Amir, for speaking out. I hope you don't get threats from the TRAs.
That would piss me off. If you're their mother, it should make you heated too. You carried them for 9 months, gave birth, and lactated for however long just for him to turn around and claim your title
That must’ve been tough.. Building a whole family with your partner and that person getting sucked up by narcissistic ideology and affecting your kids. I wish you well and hope your kids are doing okay.
You've essentially said everything I as a straight black man has been thinking but can't say out loud for obvious reasons. I can't thank you enough for the common sense spread through this video
Im noticing how easy most people are controlled with language. "Transphobic" is a magical word - its like a spell. If it is cast on you, it has such power. Laugh at these words when they're cast on you. You cannot argue the truthfulness of the accusation, because the accusation is the whole point. It is meant to shut down expression of critical views on the subject and get into a war over definitions Say what you've got to say, and don't be afraid of what degenerates and tyrants think of you.
@@2stroketyson79 you say this but I have a budding music career and we know what cancel culture does. Its not worth saying a damn thing anymore especially when they can dig it up in 10 years and if by some miracle I've made it somewhere good, it could be the end of the line for me Till the day Cancel culture is no more I think I'll stick to sating stuff yo those in my immediate vicinity cos now 🤣
As a Catholic man, i agree with most of your points. I dont care what people do as long as you dont involve kids or try to force others to play make belive.
As a gay man, I completely agree with everything you have said in this video. My gay friends and I have this very conversation almost weekly and we are appalled at what's going on... especially with the children. This has gone too far and needs to stop. 😕
I'm a straight man. I share much of your sentiments and I am neither homophobic nor transphobic. I clearly don't have as big of a platform as you have and even if I did the "LGBTQ community" would not be as receptive 😅. Great work man, have a nice day!
Actually I am homophobic and „transphobic“ in a sense. I hate seeing men performing sexual acts, seeing 2 men kiss each other feels disgusting to me and makes me want to puke. But this doesn’t mean that I hate gay people. It’s just an irrational feeling of disgust me and most heterosexual men feel towards seeing homosexuality among men, wich is the actual definition of homophobia. As long as I’m not involved and I don’t have to watch it, homosexuality is completely okay. Live and let live. I am also afraid of everything surrounding the trans movement, though this is not an irrational fear but a very rational one. Surgery and hormonal therapy can be very destructive and should only be used as the very last instrument in case of suicidal gender dysphoria (and even than it’s very important to explain the risks to the patient). The other concern is that perverts and rapists can use the trans status to get access to women‘s spaces.
@@nablamakabama488 You are repulsed by homosexuality, because you should be. That is nature and God himself giving you his knowledge and wisdom. Never accept this behavior as normal or we are just as guilty as the people doing it.
@@joevaghn457 so you’re telling me that the people who call me a “tranny” and a “faggot” aren’t transphobic or homophobic? you’re telling me that the people who kill trans and gay people just because there trans or gay aren’t transphobic and homophobic?
Finally, a person on the internet that hasn’t lost their mind. I want to say I greatly appreciate you making this video. You provide the truth in a very respectful and professional way. Thank you!!! 🙏 I sincerely hope more people speak up about these issues.
I’m a gay teenage boy that was groomed into believing I was a trans woman online. When I was around 13-14, I had a group of friends online on discord, usually ranging from 18-24, most of them being on the TQ+ side of the lgbtq+. At the time, I recently found out I was gay (bisexual technically because I thought I liked women when really I just like feminine things), which, at 13 thats insanely early to find out I was gay. I had a small interest in crossdressing and fashion, I liked femboys and seeing cute outfits, like many gay men. my online “friends” made me believe that this interest made me a transwoman, and encouraged me to start using She/Her or They/Them pronouns. Me being a VERY young teenager, believed this, and came out as trans online. They encouraged me to shave my legs and post images of me in thigh highs and skirts in lewd poses and videos, KNOWING I WAS 13 AT THE TIME. I didn’t think I was being groomed for years, I thought they were just being supportive and trying to help me find my identity. They further reinforced my belief by posting images of cute woman’s outfits and asking if i thought they looked cute, and asking if i would like to wear them. It got to the point where I almost came out to my friends and family, and was heavily considering getting gender reassignment surgery… at the age of 14. These thoughts, which they told me was gender dysphoria, led to a massive decline in my mental health, every minute of my day was spent thinking about transitioning. They told me that religion didn’t support being trans, and tried to get me to leave the church, which was almost successful, made me an atheist, but was unable to leave the church. This occurred for the next half year, of me being miserably depressed, hating religion, my parents, and myself. This lead to October 2021, where I attempted suicide, thinking my parents and my friends wouldn’t support me, and that I would never be a woman, obviously, it was a failed attempt. Eventually, I left discord, not due to me realizing I was being groomed, but because of my severe mental health issues and needing a break from social media. Within the first week of me leaving, I almost instantly realized, “wait, i might not even be trans, i just like cute things!”. When I realized this, I beat the crap out of myself, calling myself pathetic and an idiot for ever believing I was trans, not blaming the groomers, but myself. I had conflicting thoughts for months, about my gender, religion, political side, and my mind. Beating myself up for it. I eventually came out as gay to my friends and family, with loving support from them, which I am insanely grateful for. I struggled with mental health and my gender for years, wondering if I liked being more feminine or being more masculine, I tried crossdressing, shaving my legs, wearing thigh highs and pink hoodies to school, which led to excessive bullying and homophobia. This caused massive anxiety issues, and even panic attacks, which happened once a week for several months, causing me to need to go home early from school. This happened until January 2023, where it was happening almost every other day. I was very heavily considering just giving up, I was on antidepressants, but, none of them worked, my old therapist just insulted me and didn’t give me any actual advice. I was at my lowest point yet. February 2023, my friends asked me if I went to the gym. Me being a chubby, lazy, anti toxic masculinity, liberal, declined, and disagreed with all the stuff they said. I wanted to be cute and feminine, not buff and masculine, gross. It got to the point where they weren’t hanging out with me, they were always either doing school work, or going to the gym. I denied them every time they invited me, making up excuses like, “I don’t have time in my schedule” “i’ll get made fun of” “its too expensive”. Finally, during the end of the month, I submitted, and went to the gym with them. My first work out was, very hard, and very painful, but it felt, oddly good! My friends convinced me to get a membership, and to start going every weekday, which I agreed. I was very anxious, so I never talked to people, instead I started off doing my own workouts, if someone was in the machine next to me, looks like I had to wait until they were gone so no one saw me struggle. But eventually, I started going on my own, and started talking to the other people there, and they were insanely supportive and encouraging! It made me feel so much more confident about talking to others and the way I looked! I started eating healthier to gain muscle and lose a bit of body fat, I started trying to talk to more people and tried to make more friends. It’s been 4 months since I started going to the gym, and my mental and physical health has never been better, I no longer have depression, rarely have anxiety, lost 10 pounds without really trying to lose weight, and made so many new friends. It was only until very recently I realized that I was groomed online 3 years ago, and that I didn’t really have any desire to become trans, and only went with it to run away from the fact that I had depression, so I had something to blame it on other than myself. Now I realize that I was an impressionable young teen, that was taken advantage of by adults to push their beliefs onto children, and receive lewd images in the process. Quitting social media, and starting self improvement has been the greatest decision of my entire life, and I have never felt better. I’m proud to be a happy, healthy, religious, 16 year old gay boy, and I’m even prouder to have been able to escape those groomers and to have fixed my depression. Life is amazing, and leaving the LGBTQ+ community has done nothing but make my life better in every possible way. I’ve never told anyone about this, so I’m glad to have found a group of people that agree with me on how awful the lgbtq+ community can be, especially towards children. It led to horrible, and damaging mental health issues that lasted even after I realized I wasn’t trans. I hope everyone will be able to realize how awful it is to be pushing this towards children, and will strive to make our world better for the lgbtq+ members that aren’t absolutely insane. ❤ Thank you for giving me a place where i feel comfortable sharing this.
Thank you for sharing your story. That was very brave of you. Hopefully other teenagers will read your post and be able to protect themselves thanks to what you said and described about adult groomers. Best of luck to you in the future.
my Story is actually very similar to yours except I’m a lesbian. I’m 17 now, religious, healthy (mentally and physically) and just so much better off that I cut off from everything and restarted to figure out myself. after the messed up shit of other people consfusing a 13 year old and making me think I was a boy, and like you, that literally made more suicidal after years of manipulation and destroying myself before I finally came to the realisation that this is fucked up and cut off from everything and essentially restarted my life. There are so many ‘detransitioners’ and severely depressed ‘trans’ people that it is really just confusing, destroying and even killing kids.
Oh yeah, and another thing I really related to was that I started going to a rock climbing gym, and just being around the positive encouragement and interaction of good, normal people really made the biggest and best difference in my life. Make sure you keep going to the gym or something similar and keep interacting with good people! Keep up the good work!
Love, love, love this video, Amir. I'm gay, 54, from Australia and you have said everything I have been thinking for years. I miss the 90s and 00s, everything was so much better for us back then. Then in about 2015, it all started to change for the worse. I have two gay siblings and many friends with whom I will definitely be sharing this video. Thank you..
Well one thing he said that was wrong was labelling it the gay community. Trans is not the same thing as being gay. They're very different. Gays are men. Trans are not. Gays is an orientation, what you're attracted to. Trans is not. It's what your gender itself is
@@steelmagnolia7000 Nah, It's a long story. In Weimar Germany jews created trans clinics and child brothels, NSDAP burned them down. It's a historical collective struggle.
Any community is toxic when individual voices aren't allowed to be heard. I'm a feminist but feminism has a long history of shutting down women who they deem to 'go against the correct agenda' or who are 'unacceptable representatives'. Unfortunately, the LGBT+ community is very much doing the same right now and I just hope that, just like with feminism, time and awareness will recognise and correct that. Voices like yours are incredibly important, so thank you for having the guts to put it out there.
"just like with feminism, time and awareness will recognise and correct that" Sorry to say this, but feminism is now worse than it ever was. Intersectional feminism is THE WORST ideology unleashed upon populations in a long long, LONG time. It's responsible for this current "hierarchy of oppression" olympics, in which you can do and say anything you like as long as you've been approved of having enough oppression points on you. And we have the feminists to thank for that. Everyone is now put in their well defined racial, sexuality, wealth, class and even body weight boxes, and kept there as mannequins for the ideologues to use, the ideologues who are hell bent on pitting every single possible group against each other, and all against the white heterosexual male. Feminism is a toxic ideology, which claims to be for equality, but instead is a supremacist movement which spares no effort or opportunity to bring everything down, but especially to bring all men down. They claim that's not the case, they claim there is this "pure form" of feminism, which you have to "read about" to understand that it's just a benign egalitarian movement which just started as a women's rights movement, but nothing could be further from the truth. Feminism is NOT a good movement. Maybe it once was, but if that's the case it has to be said that it certainly isn't that anymore. And it hasn't been that for a long time.
Idk how I stumbled across this channel but I'm SO GLAD I did. Thank you SO MUCH for making this video. We've been treated like we are crazy for years and years. Thank you for using your voice to speak on these situations!
Thank you all for taking the time to watch this video. It means a lot, more content coming soon! :)
Thank you speaking honestly. I saved this video to show my very left wing mother, the creepy things like the kid in cutoffs twerking at the pride parade. My parents took me to pride parades in the late 70's/early 80's. They think that it's the same today. I was young then, but I still know it was, regular people who happened to be gay marching for fairness.
I remember this specific moment when I was around 8 years old. Growin up as an imaginative only-child used to playing alone, one day in that childlike innocence I wondered to myself "what does it feel like to be a girl?" So I went n got 1 of my mom's least favorite dresses from the laundry, put it on n played around n twirled around like a little girl would for like 5 minutes. Then I was like "oh, that was fun" took off the dress, put it back in the laundry n went right back to playing like a little boy with my toy soldiers, plastic guns n toy cars n never did the little girl play pretend thing ever again. If I were 8 years old today in 2023 n somebody from the TQ+ community saw me play pretending as a girl for that short 5 minutes, I have no doubt they would've pushed me to make a life changing transition I would later regret. No shade to all the people out there with genuine body dysmophia, y'all have my support. My ability to be imaginative n playful has resulted in my having a few acting gigs under my belt among the vast variety of endeavors I've pursued in my life as a heterosexual man. My current goal is to marry my baddie fiance n have a couple of kids her within the next couple years. So glad I grew up in the period in time when I did.
Great video. 👍🏿 Keep spreading the message.
Yayyy!
This is not gays, this is trans and spicy straights leaches that feed off gay rights
As a gay person myself, I have to agree. Dragging LITERAL KIDS into SOMETHING THAT IS MENT FOR ADULTS is just INSANE to me. Thank you for speaking out :)
Thank you for your comment.
Exactly!.
Respect ✊
My people...I thought I was the only one
Right, I remember my first drag show about a decade ago and it was at an adult’s only venue, a nightclub. And that was the norm. They were pretty much exclusive to adult only venues and clubs. I’d see drag queens at family festivals every once in a while, but their performances were never sexual. Usually they were doing comedy or giving genuine motivational speeches about BEING YOURSELF. It’s wild to me how much it’s changed in such a short span of time.
#GaysAgainstGroomers
The problem is that when someone actually points out all the problems, everyone just pulls out the “transphobic card” and they win. simple as that. stupid as that
Just pull out the race card, only reasonable answer or just say “you’re only doing this because I’m speaking the truth
+@@jennyxvfx Nah, the answer- and it's unfortunate that it's come to this- is to accept the label and say "now what?"
Take the power from the word. I really wish it didn't have to come to this.
They dont win when they pull that card if you dont allow it to get to you. If you are ever in a situation where someone pulls this shit just ignore it lol
they don't win, they lose credibility. you need to stop being afraid of flimsy accusations and insults.
It's not stupid per se, the ideology is designed like that specifically. Language is weaponized and they don't do it randomly but select historically emotional terms that will have a response.
I’m a straight black man I don’t know how this video ended up on my timeline but I’m glad I watched it you speaking truth bro keep pushing this message out
I’m a straight white woman and know even less why this was on my discovery page 😂😂 that dude in the video has got a point though
YT recomended the video, i do agree with the video in all that he talks about.
As a straight white man l agree 100%.
Straight white man here. I was hesitant to click the video because of how crazy everything is now. This dude is speaking hella truth though. Mad respect to him.
Lol stay mad. Most straight Black men can’t even read and more than half are in prison. 💀
As a white, heterosexual man, I have to say: I love this guy. Amir is such a wise person. I wish his thoughts were mainstream
as the same persom, i just found this video and it showed me there are some respectable homosexuals, even if very little because of the lgbt community
As a whitish heterosexual woman, I have to say: Amir is everything that i hope to find in a future husband.
And as the sister of a gay man, who is one of the kindest, smartest, most incredible people I’ve ever met, Amir is everything I hope he finds in a future husband/partner 💕
@@pablobogopablogames2270ah jeeze... Thats so inspiring to me. I'm afraid people will acquaint this crazy ideology onto all gay people. I feel ashamed of my sexuality now, or at the least embarrassed. :(
I was never homophobic, nor transphobic but since the lgbtq + community started targeting children, I am gradually becoming transphobic because it’s cruel to manipulate children into hurting themselves.
Gay people don’t belong to this community anymore, any trans people who has sense doesn’t either.
Just know you are loved and respected as you are, you are not the same as these people.
Latino Straight Dude here. This dude is speaking straight facts on a lot of issues.
I remember being called "transphobic" when I was infuriated by the fact that a 16 year old can get a hysterectomy just because she identifies as a boy, but a fully grown adult women like myself isn't able to get a hysterectomy because "what if I change my mind later?" We live in a backwards society.

The problem is there was never an ethical and official conference of different adults within the lgbtq+ community that represented different sides of the community to discuss and propose ideas on what is and isn’t acceptable at these parades, where maybe even an official vote was held afterwards.

I personally think that kids should not be at pride because it is a space for adults to celebrate adult sexuality.
EXACTLY!!!!
As a straight man, I don’t take my kids to strip clubs. How are the parades and drag shows any different. I don’t even take my kids to music festivals that may get out of hand, because my job as a parent, is to protect my children. Thank you for using your platform and voice for this purpose. No one listens to the white, straight, man. Us parents need your help. Thank you
As a gay man, I don’t recommend you nor your kids go to the parades, they are hyper sexualized, inappropriate, and super creepy. It’s the worst of gay culture run rampant. In Seattle it used to really bother me when I would see kids at these parades, with people walking around with rainbow dildos strapped to a harness, it was sickening. I hate what gay culture has become, it used to be about our rights, and our ability to be part of society. Now pride is a whole weekend of block parties full of orgies and weird sexual themes. Not all gay men feel it’s appropriate, or normal. it’s deplorable, and degrading to the community.

Actually the gay community who feel uncomfortable and not happy with the current in your face rainbow ideology are probably in the majority. The most vocal critics of this also happen to be gay ( ie Douglas Murray ).
I would say be moderate who before Covid probably listen to mainstream media, after listening to minority conservatives (yes that’s what I like calling it as it best way to explain it was them that showed me different views). 😅
Well said Joshua!
I heard from someone it was easier to come out as gay than to come out as a Trump supporter.
I don't understand why we're teaching kids about sexuality / gender transitioning before we teach them about how babies are made and how their bodies are going to change with puberty. When I watch these cartoons I can't help feel disturbed because it feels like indoctrination.
Of course is indoctrination if we want to avoid the word grooming. They learn about sex while believing in Santa and the tooth Fairy. It's madness.
Population control… this is what’s happening folks….
It's the new religion and children are the sacrifice
Representation has actually increased phobias. All those haters out there had nothing to fight before. Now they have lots to fight. My friend told me this.
It is indoctrination by the evil globalists who are trying to take full control of the world right now. It's inversion of society and nature to cause confusion and chaos. It's also lowering fertility rates and such. They want depopulation. Look up Klaus Schwab's great reset. Or the book about the new world order written in like the 70s.
As a lesbian I felt this so much I can't even. Thank you for saying this

The only one to add to the LGB is asexual and/or aromantic because they have a separate sexuality they just don’t attract to anyone
I was right. The community you worked for made your people looked bad and blamed it on my people now they'll pay for what they've done to your innocent soul.
Fr. People by and large are polite. I’m not gonna go out of my way to call them names or tell them they don’t “pass” like they think they do. But at this point the demand for respect will not be entertained by them unless they have it for others. I’ll only be rude if they want to invalidate others consent, autonomy, and definitely not about to go after kids.

You can voice your disagreement with gender ideology, and this being done to kids and women, more and more. You can help change the average normie's response to what's going on, by speaking out, at least to the people around you. You can make it known that you think this sh*t is CRAZY, and harmful, and dangerous! Also, seriously..? The new documentary that just came out, Affirmation Generation, is freaking AMAZING!!! Currently trying to encourage all the normies in my life to see that one. Great way to peak people, or at least to get them started down the path of SERIOUSLY questioning this stuff. And the more people wake up and object..? The more we can turn this around! It's like that story about the Emperor's New Clothes.. If NO ONE says out loud that he is naked..? People will keep pretending like he isn't! But the more people bravely say it..? The more the spell is broken! And straight men absolutely CAN be a part of that. Men like you are also important.
Wow, this guy is based. If more members of the LGB community were like this, they would have gained acceptance much more quickly.
Fr nobody had a problem with me not knowing my sexuality. I was terrified my close friend would avoid me since I had a crush on him and not everyone would be supportive and would be mean to me. I came out to my close friend in tears of him abandoning me and he was fine with it(I knew prior he wasn't gay he stated that every chance he got. I had also a proud atheist antigay so I was worried and I came out to all my class one month before school ended(ended this friday 28th april) and my classmates gave me ovations. I regret not coming out sooner but I'm happy I did. People accept me because of me as a person, not being pressured into gay tolerance

He IS the majority of the LGBTQ community my whole life and I am 43.

As a straight, conservative, white, Christian man (feeling like the most hated group lately), much respect to you, young man. You speak many truths. Be well.
That's because (at least in the U.S.) that is the most hated group. Instead of moving away from hate based on gender, race, sexuality or anything else, it's just increasing.

Not to mention that trans is as against lgb people as religion is. You can't have same-sex attraction without biological sex.
@@xeganxerxes4319 that is a great point! We have always called it "same-sex" not "same-gender" relationships. This is a total made up fad that sets us back. Women and the lgb community fought really hard to have civil protections and rights just to have it undone by men invading women's spaces, bullying gender "conforming" people, and dangerously grooming kids to be sexualized and medicalized.
I appreciate you!
They're also prejudiced against bisexual woman, very disappointing
I'll be honest, I literally don't know what queer means. I thought it was a slur from ages ago but I don't understand how it is used today. So confusing.

@@kevindon2133 I a bi and I feel it too. At some point I felt they were perceiving me like a pervert because it seemed like all I cared about was their genitals...
Protect the children.
It really lost me as well as soon as they started involving children...
I feel like after 26 year in the closet, when I came out I wanted people to know that I was gay and took on the "gay" personality, and it did some good for me for a bit, becoming proud to be myself. I think it happens to a lot of gay men, they take on this "persona" to broadcast "I'm proud and not afraid of who I am".... but they don't know how to drop that persona after a bit and actually be themselves.
But being 32 now, the past year I feel like I'm just learning how to actually be myself again. I realized I don't like the glitter, flags, bright colors, and hyper sexualization of every conversation. I want to be stoic. I want to be disciplined. I want to be taken seriously.
It took several years, but I've finally learned being gay is a very small part of who I am, and doesn't need to be my main personality trait.
That's interesting, eh? As part of coming out about part of yourself you became other than who you are for around eight years. The human mind seems rather prone to self-abuse. It is good you are now in place to recover yourself.
Most actual lgb people are against involving children, it’s just the minority speak the loudest. Most sane lgb people are doing their lives in private (Like 90% of people should).
It's down to the wanton acceptance of the "minor attracted person's " rights being bought into the TQ+ so called community. Include the children and you control the future.
They're involving children because they're trying to groom potential options. Because there are so few gay/trans people, it's less likely one can meet someone they're genuinely interested in. And, of course, some of them are just pedos.
YES!!!! You don't need to let that define you. And frankly, if you appreciate the big things in life, and how we have a purpose(especially if you are religious) it does not have to be all of who you are
I also saw a drag queen on youtube recently who said (paraphrasing) "What is it about all these drag shows in front of children?" She said drag is adult entertainment and it's not a place for children. She's 100% right.

I love it when people actually confront this problem! Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, thank you.
Anyone performing any kind of sexual act with, or in front of children, ON PURPOSE, should be given the harshest of punishments.
It is so bizarre people are normalizing this? Creepy. But we do have a history and even in present time of enjoying the sexualization of minors...it's all over t.v and movies. So I guess I am not surprised.
Exactly, same with the kid pageants. Why would you want your kid to be dressed up like that and shown to adults? Like do you really care for your child’s safety?
Technically by law everywhere, what is going on in the community with kids is extremely illegal. It is highly illegal to show any sort of sexual acts or media to kids. These people should not be parents, and there are plenty that should be behind bars.

I'm glad I'm not the only one thinking this. My husband and I are raising a teenage relative. They only ever talk about being gay, how the straights are disgusting (actively calling my husband and me gross, loudly in public), and how awful it is that they get misgendered in public by strangers (they don't dress or try to represent themselves as masculine).
I get it. It doesn't feel good to be called something you don't want to be identified as, but expecting people they may have 1 interaction with in their entire existence to accommodate their fragile ego/identity is ridiculous. I'm seeing many young people feel that they need others to tell them who they are/reaffirming labels, and I'm so tired of it; if all it takes for them to have a mental breakdown about a stranger mislabeling them, they have bigger core issues to resolve.
I’m so sorry that this relative who should only be grateful to you and your husband is hateful towards you because of the toxic brainwashing he or she has been subjected to. This person is so lucky to have your support and understanding. God bless you and your husband ❤
Really hope someday they grow out of the narrative, look back, and thank you guys for taking care of them despite them being actively hateful towards two people who looked after them. I'm sickened by the indoctrination of hate and fragile ego that's being pumped into the public sphere for young kids.
I agree. These people say they are being themselves and to accept them, yet they are so unbelievably fragile that if they get called the wrong thing then they breakdown. Literally. I’m a woman and if someone called me a guy then I’d laugh. Like who tf cares what someone says? It’s not true!

This video summed up everything I've been feeling about the LGBT community over the past few years as a bisexual black man myself. We need more people that are LGBT standing up and speaking out against the lunacy.
Why LGs though? I feel like this has nothing to do with me at all. I don't have kids, I don't particularly like them, and I'm not their parent to be raising or controlling what they consume.
I understand that the black american community tends to be more…traditional when it comes to identity. So we see a lot of gay black men who feel compelled to be gay but not too gay.

This is what is happening to the gay community?
Here are the reasons why you must leave and not support homosexuality. It's not what you think it is. Homosexuality & trans was practiced in ancient pagan cultures and it brought the brutal end & collapse of their civilizations and the same thing is going happen to this corrupted modern

As a lesbian (and a lifelong leftie) I share the same concerns. The backlash will be intense and it's frustrating. We are going backwards.
Same here. Its infuriating. The gay community are going to get the brunt of it. And most of us are saying.....Wtf too. This isn't what I wanted. Every weirdo now attaches themselves to the lgbt acronym. True trans has went out the window. Its all this weird carry on. I identify as this and that. My friends son came home from school and said he'd like to be a doggie. So my friend said well, You'll sleep on the floor in the hall. You'll pee outside in the garden. Explained the ridiculousness of it. What are the kids getting taught at school. All I ever wanted for the gay community was treated as equals. In law. Myself and my partner are just like everyone else. That's what I fought for. In schools just let the kids know in class that some other kids might have two mummies or two daddies. That's it. Nothing much. Now its getting scary. It's disheartening what kids are getting taught. Some of if is vulgar. And h feel the gay community are getting used to bring all this weird crap in. We have to make a stand.
Why do we keep separating ourselves into left and right? Like what even is that? It's stupid in my opinion, no offence but it just sounds toxic.
Why can't we just be humans that have different opinions, I agree with both sides sometimes depending on what aligns with my morals and values, I've been called a leftist for asking people why they think it's acceptable for a grown ass man to threaten a kid because he was claiming to be a part of antifa, and people were saying "yeahhh he should've smacked him good" it's crazy to me, do you know what I'm saying?

It’s crazy how upside down it all is. When someone pointed this out in one of our PHME lessons the teacher told us kids that it was impossible for straight people, white people and men to be discriminated against, even going as far as to deny the fact that being male was a discriminated characteristic in the fucking human rights act which she had JUST referenced. She also made the point that it was impossible for a woman to rape a man and actively contributed to negative stereotypes of men, saying it was “much harder for us to keep it in our pants”. On the plus side, most people were wise to it. Even the people I had down as pro-LGBT were aware that it was insanity.

Yup. You aren’t straight because you changed your pronouns. An old friend tried to “convince” me to be lesbian, before transitioning and then trying to force sex on me with their new muscles. I don’t trust trans people at this point.

Thank you for this. Not long ago I worked as a bar manager at a gay bar that was heavily involved in the community. As a gay person myself, it was good to work at a place that held events that helped out homeless youth charities and LGBTQ charities. But each year, I noticed a shift. The community somehow went from fighting for gay marriage and equality (in the eyes of the law) to somehow demonizing other gay peers because they are white, oversexualizing absolutely everything, and denying basic biology. It became so toxic that I removed myself from it all and I couldn't be any happier.
Yes I agree. The pressing issues that are gay youth homelessness or gay oppression in other revert societies aren't addressed, but hey attack jk Rowling for expressing her opinions is ok.
Why do you think that is? I’m curious as to your thoughts on this.
@Paul-jf4gw bye you? Ok. Only you up here trying to stir things up for days now. I guess you're only of those jobless minions? Insulting name calling seems to be the only strategy of your kind. Says a lot about you in the eyes of others. Society doesn't like much those don't have good home rearing like you.
Communists have taken over the LGBTQ. Their goal is to divide and conquer little by little. That's what normal LGBTQ people see when these radicals say and act crazy.
I agreed with everything you said, until you brought up being racially discriminated because you're white. That's rich considering white people have spent centuries perpetuating GLOBAL economic and social divisiveness. You can't demand respect when your race still has indigenous lands under European occupation. White people have demonized POC for thousands of years. No one owes any more respect to white people than they have bestowed upon others.
Your Caucasian racial category is literally dying out. As the numbers of your global human population takes a nose dive, hostilities towards white people is going to increase because the vast majority of the world's population are not white people. It is, what is it.
I don't condone the discrimination of anyone regardless of race. However, that's the energy you white people put out, now the universe is calling back those results. The universe keeps receipts, luv. Karma is coming to collect.
Don’t know how this got on my recommended page but I’m so glad it did. As another gay black guy, I am just dumbfounded by these new developments, the worst thing is the politicization of so called “hate” and thank you for starting with that, it’s a blanket tool to shut down useful conversation, and to shame and shun others. Classic cult like behaviour if you ask me. I’m seeing more and more of us LGBTs speak up about this, so hopefully there’s still hope for sanity. Great video.
I'm so glad you were able to find my account! Thank you for the support!
@@amirxodom You made some valid points, specifically about the exposure of kids to these strange carnivals. But you seem to not understand basic facts about being trans and trans healthcare. What makes them transgender is that they identify as something other than the gender assigned at birth. Everything else is merely what helps them with that process of acceptance. There's no delusion or mental illness involved there, just a deep seated neurological trait that can only be perceived by the person experiencing it. The consensus of serious scientific research and clinical experience is that gender identity is biologically rooted in our prenatal development, whether we are transgender or cisgender. Yes, transitioning is not a requirement for being trans, not all trans people want the available procedures or other ways of transitioning. A trans person is and always will be the gender they inform you to be. A tomboy identifies as a girl, a trans man however identifies as a man. Same thing with femboys.
Transition for minor children is different than an adult’s transition. It is primarily social- preferred name and pronouns, hair, clothing, and the like. As puberty nears, the child’s physician may recommend puberty blockers- medications that have been in common use for other conditions for many, many years, whose efficacy and safety are well documented. These medications are not “hormone therapy”, they do not cause any changes. Instead, they delay the onset of any changes puberty might cause (breast development, voice deepening, etc). If these medications were to be stopped, the child’s body would progress into puberty naturally.
No physician will perform gender confirming surgery on a pre-pubescent child, and in almost all cases will wait until the child is 17-18 before agreeing to perform any of these procedures. Hormone therapy would start in late teens, so they’d not be a “child” anymore but a young adult.
Puberty blocker prescriptions are not written by a physician on a whim, there must be documented evidence that the child’s gender identity is insistent, consistent, and persistent. There is a medical protocol that is followed as per WPATH.
Given all this, there is exceedingly little risk of harm to the child in allowing them to socially transition. Trans children, like trans adults, show marked positive emotional improvement when their gender identities are supported.
I don't know if you realize that you are using TERF talking points.
Trans-Excluding Radical Feminist (TERF) are women who exclude transgender women from the feminist movement simply because they were born male. They feel that transwomen are somehow diluting the meaning of what it means to be a woman.
The reality is that TERFs aren't really feminists at all. They may have been once, but their hatred of trans people has driven them further and further from feminism, so they now promote biological determinism ( the idea that a person's role and status in life should be determined forever by the sex recorded on their birth certificate ) and solicit funds from extreme right wing and religious groups such as the Heritage Foundation.
TERF groups have set out to deliberately distort government consultations by using misleading newspaper ads to harvest the email addresses of gullible readers, and one of their ringleaders has even produced a video encouraging men to take guns into women's toilets in order to “protect" women from the imaginary threat posed by a trans woman having a pee behind a locked cubicle door.
TERFs don't like the term “TERF” -- whether they object to being called “radical feminists" or “trans exclusionary" isn't clear, so they have taken to using various other euphemisms instead -- “gender critical" seems to be the most popular -- but it's the same old irrational hatred, just dressed up with a new name.
Regardless, as you may know by being a gay man, there's no real win in demanding justification for their gender identity/expression/existence. It just makes their lives harder and benefits no one. The goal for most trans people is to quietly blend into ordinary society without drawing attention to their medical past.
I’m gay and agree. People always ask about Pride events, I don’t subscribe to all that! I’ve always just been me and I’ve never forced me or my lifestyle on anyone or made a big deal out of it. I’ve never had any issues in 25 years. I like this guy! Kids should not have to subscribe to this and attend these events. I understand wanting your kids to accepting and not bully those that different, but this is out of control!
The detransitioning section is literally heartbreaking, thank you for posting this.
This guy is fantastic! I'm a gay man in my 50's and I feel so out of step with the gay community now and this guy has managed to encapsulate all that is wrong with it and a hugely positive and non hateful way. Go Amir! You get my vote. Well... Subscription. Really refreshing to hear people speaking sense. 😊
You aren't alone, I'm in my early 30s and I feel more alienated by the whackadoodle hedonistic political agitation gender cult known as the LGBT community than by anybody else.. Nowadays when I keep my preferences a secret it's mostly because I don't want to be confused with them out of shame
Excellent statement. Back in the 1970s, 1980s, gays didn't have any connection to "trans" or "pronoun" culture. It is a brand new leftist ideology.
I commented the same thing. I’m gay as well and I never truly felt part of the community to begin with. Mainly because I don’t agree with putting labels on everything and everyone. Why can’t we just be humans and live our lives spreading positivity and lifting up others without the need to be called out when the group in which you are “indirectly” part of does something insane that you certainly don’t agree with? It’s truly a shame that society has to label everything they see as “new” or “strange”. But either way, I’m glad I wasn’t alone on the comments about this. 😂🤣😅
I 100% agree, as a gay man myself who marched tirelessly to earn our right to marry who we want to marry under the eyes of our country's law. It completely shames me to see what most of our pride parades has turned into, glorified sex shows with bondage gear and perversion..... It's depressing, and it's getting to the point to where it's been difficult for me and my partner because now we don't want to say we're gay for other reasons that completely are opposite of our sexuality. It's because we don't want to be associated with how over the deep end everyone else has jumped.
It really grosses me out too!
Half naked people with "pride" flags.
This isn't how our community should be.
As a straight man, I gotta say it saddens me to see how the pronoun obsessed movement is really ruining people's perception of LGBT ppl. I've hung out with quite a bit of gay ppl, some trans too, and NOT ONE has acted like these crazy twitter people. You know who do though? Bored white women lol. I'm Norwegian though, so it's not as crazy here. Unfortunately it seems to be catching on, so I hope it's not the future here too. We don't need people to go back to hating gays, because I'm afraid that could be the result. Good video Amir!
I’m glad more people in the LGB community are speaking out about this stuff because straight people aren’t “allowed to”. Everything you said was on point.
For one, someone who actually sticks out is tell The truth yes
Because people like us, the ones who are strata who understand the danger are usually labeled as that
It's easier for than to do so because we're straight

We got you, it's our turn to fight for your rights.
God and even I asked myself if there was normal gay or Trans people but the comment section gave me hope
There are sane trans people out there too. Blaine White and The Offensive Tranny are two CZcams channels that are transsexuals who acknowledge reality and are against all the insanity. I definitely recommend checking them out.
There's a lot but with media the extremes get the most attention and some will see that as the majority unless they know of people personally in said group.
A good analogy might be if you're in a crowd of 1000 and there's 1 or 2 people yelling extremities, they'd get a lot of attention from those outside the group, but those within would understand he doesn't speak for the other 990+. People who aren't there and hear of it will think "what was wrong with x group", and because of the obscene scene created it'd get views for mostly the wrong reasons. But those who know people in the group would ask "what was with that fruit loop?".
Another example, the few who riot and turn a protest into something that few were apart of, sport hooligans don't represent the %99 either and further more, yet a lot will see the majority as a certain way unless involved/ personal encounters throughout life.
Well said, I guess I'm just closed minded.

Much respect to you Amir Odom, I wish I had the wisdom you show at just 25 years old. Maybe my life would be a little different than it is. I think the only way we can get back to normal is if people from the gay community with more traditional values speak up against the extremists. Kids need to be left out of these things. What is it about that they don't understand?
Do not feel confused. You are the most down to earth, sensible, smart commentator. We need more people like you, who tell it like it is.
Back when my ex-husband "transitioned" and started calling himself the "mother' of our children, the gay men I was friends with kept saying they have no understanding of "trans." They were just as disturbed by my former spouse's narcissistic behavior, which endangered our little sons, as anyone else. Thanks, Amir, for speaking out. I hope you don't get threats from the TRAs.
Calling himself their mother? Yikes. What delusion he was living in. Glad you got out of that situation.

"I am neither homophobic nor transphobic" in reality, no one actually is. Don't let those words get to you, friend.
Actually I am homophobic and „transphobic“ in a sense.
I hate seeing men performing sexual acts, seeing 2 men kiss each other feels disgusting to me and makes me want to puke. But this doesn’t mean that I hate gay people. It’s just an irrational feeling of disgust me and most heterosexual men feel towards seeing homosexuality among men, wich is the actual definition of homophobia. As long as I’m not involved and I don’t have to watch it, homosexuality is completely okay. Live and let live.
I am also afraid of everything surrounding the trans movement, though this is not an irrational fear but a very rational one. Surgery and hormonal therapy can be very destructive and should only be used as the very last instrument in case of suicidal gender dysphoria (and even than it’s very important to explain the risks to the patient). The other concern is that perverts and rapists can use the trans status to get access to women‘s spaces.
@@nablamakabama488 You are repulsed by homosexuality, because you should be. That is nature and God himself giving you his knowledge and wisdom. Never accept this behavior as normal or we are just as guilty as the people doing it.
@@joevaghn457 so you’re telling me that the people who call me a “tranny” and a “faggot” aren’t transphobic or homophobic? you’re telling me that the people who kill trans and gay people just because there trans or gay aren’t transphobic and homophobic?
This video wasn’t made for you so please have a seat AS A STRAIGHT MAN
Finally, a person on the internet that hasn’t lost their mind. I want to say I greatly appreciate you making this video. You provide the truth in a very respectful and professional way. Thank you!!! 🙏 I sincerely hope more people speak up about these issues.
I’m a gay teenage boy that was groomed into believing I was a trans woman online.
When I was around 13-14, I had a group of friends online on discord, usually ranging from 18-24, most of them being on the TQ+ side of the lgbtq+. At the time, I recently found out I was gay (bisexual technically because I thought I liked women when really I just like feminine things), which, at 13 thats insanely early to find out I was gay. I had a small interest in crossdressing and fashion, I liked femboys and seeing cute outfits, like many gay men. my online “friends” made me believe that this interest made me a transwoman, and encouraged me to start using She/Her or They/Them pronouns. Me being a VERY young teenager, believed this, and came out as trans online. They encouraged me to shave my legs and post images of me in thigh highs and skirts in lewd poses and videos, KNOWING I WAS 13 AT THE TIME. I didn’t think I was being groomed for years, I thought they were just being supportive and trying to help me find my identity. They further reinforced my belief by posting images of cute woman’s outfits and asking if i thought they looked cute, and asking if i would like to wear them. It got to the point where I almost came out to my friends and family, and was heavily considering getting gender reassignment surgery… at the age of 14. These thoughts, which they told me was gender dysphoria, led to a massive decline in my mental health, every minute of my day was spent thinking about transitioning. They told me that religion didn’t support being trans, and tried to get me to leave the church, which was almost successful, made me an atheist, but was unable to leave the church. This occurred for the next half year, of me being miserably depressed, hating religion, my parents, and myself. This lead to October 2021, where I attempted suicide, thinking my parents and my friends wouldn’t support me, and that I would never be a woman, obviously, it was a failed attempt.
Eventually, I left discord, not due to me realizing I was being groomed, but because of my severe mental health issues and needing a break from social media. Within the first week of me leaving, I almost instantly realized, “wait, i might not even be trans, i just like cute things!”. When I realized this, I beat the crap out of myself, calling myself pathetic and an idiot for ever believing I was trans, not blaming the groomers, but myself. I had conflicting thoughts for months, about my gender, religion, political side, and my mind. Beating myself up for it. I eventually came out as gay to my friends and family, with loving support from them, which I am insanely grateful for.
I struggled with mental health and my gender for years, wondering if I liked being more feminine or being more masculine, I tried crossdressing, shaving my legs, wearing thigh highs and pink hoodies to school, which led to excessive bullying and homophobia. This caused massive anxiety issues, and even panic attacks, which happened once a week for several months, causing me to need to go home early from school. This happened until January 2023, where it was happening almost every other day. I was very heavily considering just giving up, I was on antidepressants, but, none of them worked, my old therapist just insulted me and didn’t give me any actual advice. I was at my lowest point yet. February 2023, my friends asked me if I went to the gym. Me being a chubby, lazy, anti toxic masculinity, liberal, declined, and disagreed with all the stuff they said. I wanted to be cute and feminine, not buff and masculine, gross. It got to the point where they weren’t hanging out with me, they were always either doing school work, or going to the gym. I denied them every time they invited me, making up excuses like, “I don’t have time in my schedule” “i’ll get made fun of” “its too expensive”. Finally, during the end of the month, I submitted, and went to the gym with them. My first work out was, very hard, and very painful, but it felt, oddly good! My friends convinced me to get a membership, and to start going every weekday, which I agreed. I was very anxious, so I never talked to people, instead I started off doing my own workouts, if someone was in the machine next to me, looks like I had to wait until they were gone so no one saw me struggle. But eventually, I started going on my own, and started talking to the other people there, and they were insanely supportive and encouraging! It made me feel so much more confident about talking to others and the way I looked! I started eating healthier to gain muscle and lose a bit of body fat, I started trying to talk to more people and tried to make more friends.
It’s been 4 months since I started going to the gym, and my mental and physical health has never been better, I no longer have depression, rarely have anxiety, lost 10 pounds without really trying to lose weight, and made so many new friends. It was only until very recently I realized that I was groomed online 3 years ago, and that I didn’t really have any desire to become trans, and only went with it to run away from the fact that I had depression, so I had something to blame it on other than myself. Now I realize that I was an impressionable young teen, that was taken advantage of by adults to push their beliefs onto children, and receive lewd images in the process.
Quitting social media, and starting self improvement has been the greatest decision of my entire life, and I have never felt better. I’m proud to be a happy, healthy, religious, 16 year old gay boy, and I’m even prouder to have been able to escape those groomers and to have fixed my depression. Life is amazing, and leaving the LGBTQ+ community has done nothing but make my life better in every possible way. I’ve never told anyone about this, so I’m glad to have found a group of people that agree with me on how awful the lgbtq+ community can be, especially towards children. It led to horrible, and damaging mental health issues that lasted even after I realized I wasn’t trans. I hope everyone will be able to realize how awful it is to be pushing this towards children, and will strive to make our world better for the lgbtq+ members that aren’t absolutely insane. ❤ Thank you for giving me a place where i feel comfortable sharing this.
Ew
Thank you for sharing your story. That was very brave of you. Hopefully other teenagers will read your post and be able to protect themselves thanks to what you said and described about adult groomers. Best of luck to you in the future.
my Story is actually very similar to yours except I’m a lesbian. I’m 17 now, religious, healthy (mentally and physically) and just so much better off that I cut off from everything and restarted to figure out myself. after the messed up shit of other people consfusing a 13 year old and making me think I was a boy, and like you, that literally made more suicidal after years of manipulation and destroying myself before I finally came to the realisation that this is fucked up and cut off from everything and essentially restarted my life.
There are so many ‘detransitioners’ and severely depressed ‘trans’ people that it is really just confusing, destroying and even killing kids.
Oh yeah, and another thing I really related to was that I started going to a rock climbing gym, and just being around the positive encouragement and interaction of good, normal people really made the biggest and best difference in my life. Make sure you keep going to the gym or something similar and keep interacting with good people! Keep up the good work!
@@gracecho2868 “religious”, for sure
For someone who is gay, you are dropping straight facts!
"straight" lol
Love, love, love this video, Amir. I'm gay, 54, from Australia and you have said everything I have been thinking for years. I miss the 90s and 00s, everything was so much better for us back then. Then in about 2015, it all started to change for the worse.
I have two gay siblings and many friends with whom I will definitely be sharing this video.
Thank you..
Well one thing he said that was wrong was labelling it the gay community. Trans is not the same thing as being gay. They're very different. Gays are men. Trans are not. Gays is an orientation, what you're attracted to. Trans is not. It's what your gender itself is
What's funny is a lot of people mention 2015 as a turning point for a lot of things, seemingly unrelated.
@@penultimania4295 yeah that's bc 2015 is when ppl started collectively loosing their minds.
@@steelmagnolia7000 Nah, It's a long story. In Weimar Germany jews created trans clinics and child brothels, NSDAP burned them down. It's a historical collective struggle.
as a gay man 100% this. Im sick of the freaking clownery of our community
Any community is toxic when individual voices aren't allowed to be heard. I'm a feminist but feminism has a long history of shutting down women who they deem to 'go against the correct agenda' or who are 'unacceptable representatives'. Unfortunately, the LGBT+ community is very much doing the same right now and I just hope that, just like with feminism, time and awareness will recognise and correct that. Voices like yours are incredibly important, so thank you for having the guts to put it out there.
Feminism was “corrected”? I sure don’t remember that. The only way to correct feminism is to eradicate it
"just like with feminism, time and awareness will recognise and correct that"
Sorry to say this, but feminism is now worse than it ever was.
Intersectional feminism is THE WORST ideology unleashed upon populations in a long long, LONG time.
It's responsible for this current "hierarchy of oppression" olympics, in which you can do and say anything you like as long as you've been approved of having enough oppression points on you.
And we have the feminists to thank for that.
Everyone is now put in their well defined racial, sexuality, wealth, class and even body weight boxes, and kept there as mannequins for the ideologues to use, the ideologues who are hell bent on pitting every single possible group against each other, and all against the white heterosexual male.
Feminism is a toxic ideology, which claims to be for equality, but instead is a supremacist movement which spares no effort or opportunity to bring everything down, but especially to bring all men down. They claim that's not the case, they claim there is this "pure form" of feminism, which you have to "read about" to understand that it's just a benign egalitarian movement which just started as a women's rights movement, but nothing could be further from the truth.
Feminism is NOT a good movement. Maybe it once was, but if that's the case it has to be said that it certainly isn't that anymore. And it hasn't been that for a long time.
I'm also a feminist who is scared of the modern feminists
@@goosebump91 ew
@@KolchaksGhost Why the disdain? I think you might have biased assumption about what you think all feminists believe in
This guy is making too much common sense. So down to earth. Voices like this are needed in the community
Bi person here. Thank you for speaking your part on this! You are very sensible and level-headed which honestly is more needed in the community.
As a bi person myself, it makes me sad how queers/trans are becoming intolerant day by day.
They should be more open to constructive criticism.
Idk how I stumbled across this channel but I'm SO GLAD I did. Thank you SO MUCH for making this video. We've been treated like we are crazy for years and years. Thank you for using your voice to speak on these situations!
