Thank you so much for sharing your honesty, personal history and perspectives. This is exactly what other trans/NB youth need to hear instead of click bait and snarkiness.
Wise words, if a bit dark in places. Still. I enjoyed this, and as a baby trans woman find it hopeful overall. Thank you for relating things so candidly, and for the work you do on this and your other venues!
Thank YOU for watching and taking the time to write this. :) I am very grateful to be making these videos, and comments like these help motivate me to keep at it. 💛
Despite relative age, my egg cracked only this year, so I consider you and other younger trans women to have seniority in terms of trans experience. I have much to learn, and far to go in terms of my transition.
I really think it is very positive for you at the very moment you seem to have growing up into a beautiful young lady and I wish you the very best of luck in the future. My own story is a lot more different than yours. When I think back when I was about your age there would have been no way possible for me to transition. When I grow up it was a totally different situation than you are experiencing . I am really grateful you are getting that supports that you are needing. And I really commend your parents for help understanding. Just one little small thing before I leave is that if you can have a look back on your video and check to see if it is not playing right because it was affecting my eyes to watch it, I am dyslexic so when I see it going forward and back it kind of hurts my eyes. Happy Christmas girl
Thank you so much for the lovely comment. I am definitely extremely grateful to have grown up during a time where being trans isn't as misunderstood as it once was. I recognize the incredible fortune I have to be able to medically transition and have a wide array of resources. I hope it only gets better for future generations. When you say "going forward and back" are you referring to the camera coming in an out of focus? If so, I'm really sorry about that. I'll definitely try and fix that for next time. Hope it didn't affect your viewing experience too much! Happy holidays :) ~Boone
Thank you for sharing! I didn't really have any female friends as a teenager, so I didn't really have that to compare bodily changes with, and I was completely unaware that I was trans until I was at least 18 or 19, but I do relate a lot to the part about the voice dysphoria. Me and my siblings shot movies at home and I had a tape recorder I used to record my voice all the time. I loved how my voice sounded before my voice change, I thought it sounded cute, and after I hated it. I assumed it was because I wasn't ready to grow up, but I was actually excited about growing up, even excited about the voice change, but when it happened it felt wrong. I still continued recording, so in a way I forced myself to hear it all the time, which I think actually ended up causing more discomfort and pain and I think it's affected the way I talk. I lived in Japan for a while, and speaking Japanese my voice was much higher, but when I moved back to Sweden and had to speak Swedish again, that meant my voice was suddenly a lot lower again, just because of how the languages sound, and it was a huge pain I didn't expect to feel. I don't know if you still have voice dysphoria, but if you do I want you to know your voice is like my goal. I have a few people's voices that I strive to sound like, and your voice is really the one closest to what I want to achieve. I think you have a beautiful voice you should be proud of ❤️
Thank you so much for sharing your experiences ❤️ voice is a tricky thing. Honestly, I still have pretty debilitating vocal dysphoria. It's never completely disappeared, though there was a period of time where it bothered me relatively very little. In the last few months, it's been extremely prevalent, and it's something that's causing a lot of difficulty in my life right now. I really appreciate your kind words ❤️ I guess we all just have complicated relationships with our own self-perceptions
Great video I just realised that I am trans and going to start my transition soon being 45 and away from family especially my parents helps and so do videos like yours and other people the first time I knew that i liked to be a woman was when I was 16 and told my parents that I wanted to dress like a girl they took me to a mental professional and said his sick in the head fix him so after that to cope I ate my feelings that till now as I am in hospital recovery from a knee injury and will be living on my own once released thanks again for the videos
I can't imagine going through that, and I'm so sorry you had to. I am so happy that you're able to live your truth now. I'm wishing you the absolute best in your present and future ❤️
Thanks for your will wish I would have done it years ago but with my disability I was treated like a five year old boy even now I have cerebral palsy which effects my left side if only I could go back 20years and let myself how things are now I would have saved some money and not weighted so much
One good thing about being in hospital is that I convert a number of shirts into dressers and use materials I have made one dress and half way through another then going to make swimsuits at this hospital to pass the time they have classes in a number of areas as well as having student nurses to help putting on makeup I have worn on a number of days I even put it on myself a time or two it wasn't bad I don't dear do it daily in case of visitors
I hated the final part of primary school. I got bullied so many times (including by the workers) for being smart, gay, for my hair and i really tought about doing bad things with myself. I had some close friends that time. Now I'm finishing high school and the people there are more acceptive in some ways, but I'm still not confortable at all. I think the reason is the economic diferences betwen our group, it's hard when you always have to deal with white rich people. At least everybody there is lgbtqa+, but we still are so different. I'm kind of better now because I am trying to pass all the bullying situation. I'm so much gay and I'm trying to be ok about it too.
That sounds like such an incredibly difficult situation, and I'm so sorry you've had to deal with so much. I promise things will get better, but I know they're not easy now. Sending love and well wishes 💛 ~B
Let me tell you, I want to share your videos with transphobes to show them, "here! Look at her! She's a normal person! Look". But I don't want to be the reason you have to deal with the abuse and harassment of being internet famous.
That's very kind of you to consider my well-being ❤️ I think there is no wrong person for these videos to reach, except those who may not be in a comfortable place to hear me discuss the more intense/painful topics I sometimes go over.

@@boonewilliams5338 yes maybe if you have a look back on the video yourself you will understand what I mean.🤗😇
@@brianhutchinson5299 I watched the entire video. I apologize for that!
@@boonewilliams5338 trust me it's not meant as a criticism I think if anything it might help you going forward
