#davidtennant #trans
The world can feel so lonely when you’re trans, especially when your own family reject you. It’s so comforting to have people you looked up to as a kid express their support and acceptance ❤️
❤️❤️❤️
🖤❤ as a trans ally I also love that Adam Savage have made some of my friends day a bit brighter
We don't deserve David Tenant, he truly is a wonderful person
We absolutely do deserve David Tennant because he is kind.
Yeah I get the sentiment but trans people deserve vocal support 🙂👍
You’re right we deserve people that stand up to people that want doctors to administer toxic drugs that trans people and children or receiving. Notice Ellen page is losing her hair. As someone who had worked in healthcare, I’m appalled at what society and physicians are doing to health body people. Appalled
I love David so much.
god bless david tennant. im a trans man too and always scared to be feminine and flamboyant for fear of being misgendered. seeing davids performances as crowley and the doctor and in other roles make me feel more comfortable to be expressive and loud in my presentation. 🏳️⚧️🩵🩷🤍🩷🩵

I really have to take my hat off to him, he's one of only a small number if celebrities who said things actively in support of trans and non binary people, and more than once (I.e. not just a token gesture to say "I'm not a phobe" - he gives very real ally vibes that make me feel happy to see he's still pushing this side of the conversation - not enough people are putting up a fight against politicising us).
And not just since corporations have begun to realize they could profit. He's been open about his support for most of his publicly facing life.
David's child Wilfred (who is also an actor) is non-binary, so it's part of his lived experience every day.
Bless him. What a lovely, lovely man David is! ❤️
I was just "Live and let live" before watching Good Omens, now I am a staunch Ally. ❤️🌈🌈🌈
Good for you🎉🎉🎉
Love this. He is so genuine in his response. I have the utmost respect for him when it comes to these topics.
I love this statement and I love David, BUT I will write this under every upload of this - this is recorded against David will (or people who organised this) I know someone who was at this meeting. They weren't allow to record or make any photos. The person in the frame knows it. They are recording under weird angle "casualy holding their phone" so he won't notice.
This is violation of his trust. This is not respecting him. I dont know how to tell you this, but David Tennant is a real person first and actor second. He is not an animal for petting zoo for our entertainment. I refuse to watch this video. Thank you very much.
I didn't know that. It does explain why the video is often barely on David's face though. Thank you for telling us; I think it's important context.
Thank you for sharing this. I wasn't aware.
oh yeah, fuck that. thx for telling us, filming people without their consent and uploading it is not it, celebrity or not :/
Thanks for telling us. It’s so disrespectful to deceive him when he is doing is absolute best.
I wasn't aware. No that isn't right.
I feel like I’m constantly surrounded by the kind of people who make conflict about gender identity and sexuality like David said, it makes me question myself and feel wrong because of all the constant pressure to be angry and to resent trans people or nonbinary people. I feel like my opinions just get validated when David shows how letting people express themselves and be themselves is just common decency, it reminds me that there are good people, and not everyone thinks the way my family does.
Bigots gonna bigot. And light will always shine through. Focus on the light. ❤ (Easier said than done sometimes but I hope you will always have hope)
Your opinions are validated by the laws of the universe as well fella. Much love from here! 👋
I’m not trans ( although I am an ally),but I am a Baby Boomer aged person of color, so I know what it’s like to have people constantly trying to invalidate you just for being who you are. My parents taught me that when bigots show their ignorance, just “ Consider the source” ( and how pathetic they are),dismiss them , and keep growing stronger within yourself- that is what gets them: that they can’t get to you.👍🏾
Claiming that people are what they are not is a completely different thing from "letting people express themselves and be themselves". David Tennant is showing himself to be either ignorant of what the conversation is even about, or dishonestly misrepresenting it. I don't know which. But given how dim he comes across as, I suspect he just hasn't got a clue.
@@omp199 no, he's talking about non-cis people, not the false assumptions bigots have about non-cis people
Sort of how I feel. If you are a Human and you are not harming anyone then who really cares how you live your life. Someone being trans does not affect me in any way and I don't really get why people get so worked up about it.
"Just let people be" is the best way I could put it.
Always on the right and welcoming side of the Universe, always in favor of the vastness of Existence. Yessa, so it is 🤙
transphobes on twitter are coming into good omens comment sections to whinge and post unhinged things, personally I think these people know they're on the wrong side of history and despite having JKR and whoever else they're on the minority and losing side, they're gonna shout and scream louder, let them know we love him EVEN MORE bc of his support and also remind them that michael sheen also supports trans ppl because some of them seem to be under the impression that he's not which is kinda hilarious
People who accept reality will always be on the right side of history, regardless of whether it is accepting that black people are black people, that people with same-sex attractions are people with same-sex attractions, that men are men, or that women are women. Reality is always right.
@@omp199 ahahaha hahahahahaha
You think there wasn't "scientific opinion" at the time that was anti-Black and anti-gay?
You'd be believing that crap then too
@@stillnotstill There wasn't. And why are you putting "scientific opinion" in quotation marks? I didn't use that phrase. I am talking about reality. Reality is real, regardless of anyone's "opinion".
I used the quotes not to say that anyone else said those words
The SCIENTIFIC OPINION at the time was Black people were biologically inferior but that's not actually facts, people twisted stuff to support their bigotry
David Tennant making a doctor-who sized hero out of himself.
I just cried a little, The world needs more of this!
More woolly-mindedness?

@@stillnotstill ❤
@@stillnotstill What bigotry? It's not "bigotry" to point out the woolly thinking of a clueless celebrity. This isn't even about his "opinions". He shows no understanding of what the conversation is even about. If he paid attention to the conversations about the demands for radical changes to language, social policy, sports, medicine, and law and about the consequences of those radical changes and came to well-reasoned conclusions about those things that happened to differ from mine, I would not accuse him of woolly-mindedness. It's the fact that he shows no sign of even knowing that those conversations even exist and yet is waffling on anyway.
I’m getting so tired of this all consuming need to cookie cutter people. I just wish I could some how get it through to everyone, straight, gay,trans, blue, green, big, little … come on … Differences are what make this world beautiful… what makes it worth leaving the house and seeing all the wonder and miracles … it just wears me out dealing with the hate from everyone…. So tired.
Completely agree. Do whatever you want as long as you're not hurting others.
You can see his expression shift from "Okay, I'm paying attention to the question" to "Oh this question seriously matters to this person". You can tell that he knows it hurts. He patiently waited for the slight ramble of a question to fully come across rather than waiting for it to end, and when the question had completed, he thought about each word.
This is why David Tennant is so high on the DILF. He should have the number one spot in my opinion. He is such a sweetie. ❤
Georgia Tennant is a Lucky woman.
@@nekusakura6748 Accurate! Lol
Sonic screwdriver beats wand.
i don't know who this person is, but they have my full respect
David Tennant is a famous Scottish actor, best known for starring in the tv shows Doctor Who, Good Omens, and Broadchurch
I feel haply to see this, I loved seeing him in Doctor Who and when Good Omens came along I loved that I got to see more of him. Now I feel like I'd want to see more of him again, just being a nice ally.
God bless David. Such a lovely Human Being.
I love how progressive Scotland and it's people are, as a whole, if it was independent from the UK I would like to live there.
I have to you just wouldn’t want to go to prison especially being a woman
I'm glad to live in a world where people like the late sir Terry Pratchett, Neil Gaiman, David Tennant and Michael Sheen exist. I'm glad there are people who don't necessarily belong to a minority that are vocal about that minority's rights. One of the ugly things is that transphobes and homophobes are quite vocal...but the best thing is that they are a minority, and with all the people in the community plus the allies talking we can really tell them to eff off!
Just wonderful. Idk who this guy is, but im glad he's supportive. Hatred is growing so old. I actually find it amazing that we haven't heard any opposing views. Guess they're scared of the every community that they don't like.
I’m not being funny, mate, but that is so ironic
I love him so much
Really well said! ❤

The world would be a whole lot better if everyone was able to discuss things camly and logically half as well as this man. We dont need to shout or label others. Just say what's on your mind without villifying the opposing side.
If you cant do that... "Fuck off"
It can be hard to be calm when your enemy wants you dead
@@puppyqueen5688 YEPPPPP
Do you really think that David Tennant telling everyone that disagrees with him to "fuck off" is demonstrating an ability to discuss things calmy and logically? You might want to think more carefully about that claim. Anyone can talk calmly to people they agree with. You should judge people instead by their ability to be calm with the people they _disagree_ with. And if they tell them to "fuck off", they have failed with flying colours.
@@puppyqueen5688 It's hard to be calm when the people you are talking to are so consistently and unabashedly dishonest.
@@puppyqueen5688 Wanting to retain the linguistic, social, and legal recognition of sex and of sex-based distinctions does not mean wanting anyone dead.
If I fed you a food you were deathly allergic to and you said hey I can't eat this it'll hurt me, it threatens my life, and I say Joe ate it just fine, everyone eats it, abd I actually got told that it's good for everyone, you're being really rude to me by not eating that food, and nothing you say is changing my mind because I listened to the people who said that food was good for everyone and I'm not listening to you at all about your personal experiences and your personal safety _perhaps that would make me a very bad person_
I LOVE David Tennant!!
David Tennant not be based for 5 seconds challenge (impossible):
David is a rockstar and a hero
A treasure
O David sempre me deixa tão emocionada e faz o meu dia mais bonito ❤🌈
I hope he understands that people who criticize the new age of wokeness in Doctor Who aren't transphobes. They're just people who have noticed a giant up-spike in preachiness in Doctor Who in place of the once-good writing the show used to have. The show has always been supportive of progressive things, too - but there's a difference between being generally supportive and just adding layers and layers of constant preaching rather than telling a conveying story.
It's also unfair to label all rightwingers as the problem, here. That line screams that he's absorbing one-sided media too much. I'm right-leaning, most of the people in my area are rightwing or right-leaning, and very few of us ever have an actual problem with members of the alphabet communities walking into the bar or joining one of our parties.
Mostly, in the real world, people really are just letting each other be. The only ones who aren't are the people who absorb too much biased media, whether it's Fox News or all the leftist Christian-bashing ones. They're all funded by the Blackrock and Vanguard, and they're all corrupt, only existing to bait and divide people further.
Anyway... David Tennant is not a bad person at all. He just seems like he doesn't know every actual angle of this issue, which is fairly typical for people who live in the limelight instead of the raw, earthy real world with the rest of us.
Let people be...like Junior from Problem Child, Damien from the Omen, Mikey from Mikey, Norman Bates, Hannibal Lecter, Brightlight, etc.
David it's all illusion the moment you wake up from it the better I did
Wasn't his first or second acting gig literally a trans person? This man is an ally through and through not for any reason outside of he's just a good person
I don't believe in "live and let live" regarding this issue anymore.
Agree. Trans rights and women’s rights are both very important but there are areas where they conflict and “live and let live” is a head in the sand attitude that does not acknowledge or begin to try and address this issue fairly for all.
I have seen people making bigger fuss about this than it actually is. David basically said "be who you want to be". Is the trans debate and LGBTQ+ issue deeper than that? Yes, 100%, but he didn't say anything offensive. It's that T-Shirt about trans kids he wore what may cause some trouble and concerns.
There is no “trans or LGBTQ debate” though. There’s no debate about the existence and human/civil rights of a group of people.
@@SarastistheSerpent That is true and I agree with you but sadly that is the "ideal" world. Obviously everyone is equal. It should go without any questions that every human has the right of existence, of freedom, to vote etc etc. But if you look at history, that wasn't always the case... If you look at today's world you will see an enormous amount of debates on this matter, concerns and quite honestly some important questions are asked, and they are not about restrictions at all. But I am going into the deeper waters here lol, I didn't mean to. What I wanted to say it, it's not that simple as it seems, the world is not black and white, that's all. "Both sides" (sry to call it this way) of the matter should be look into and none of them ignored.
@@SarastistheSerpent If you want to claim that Eddie Izzard, Elliot Page, Jazz Jennings, and Sam Smith are somehow part of a coherent "group", despite the fact that there is no single defining feature setting them apart from the rest of humanity, then go ahead. Nobody claims that these people don't exist, and nobody claims that they should have fewer rights than anyone else. So everything is fine, right?
Trans kids should be supported, allowed to be themselves, and allowed access to life saving gender affirming care.
How ironic that it's these very people that need to learn how to let others be
He’s wrong about non-binary not being a thing when he was a kid. We called it being a Tom-Boy/Fem-Boy. Admittedly it has a new name/label though. And, he’s shown that he has absolutely no regard for Women’s rights. Lost all respect I ever had for him.
Hell yeah, David!
I adore this man, and, while I’m adamantly opposed to what transgenderism has become and how it’s affecting children, the way he addresses it is so calm and genuine that I didn’t immediately get the feeling that everyone who disagrees with the idea was being demonized or attacked, so I actually listened to what he said - no one really listens when they’re being yelled at. He approached the topic in such an honest, respectful, and compassionate manner that he actually made me rethink some of my views.
Everyone should be as kind and gentle as this wonderful man.
"Transgenderism" isn't a thing. There is no agenda or political ideal. You are just transphobic with some extra steps. Children are not affected negatively by having a chance to be their genuine selves.
It's not affecting children tho??? I'm a trans man, I had to figure it out myself after YEARS of feeling wrong and misplaced in the world. Now I am an adult, I now have facial hair, a deep voice , and a social standing as a man. My life is better because of transitioning and any child that thinks they may be trans, should go to a therapist like I did and truly find out if their life can be better or improved by transition.
Adults who spent their childhood or teens self harming, suicidal or with eating disorders because of the impact of gender dysphoria (especially post puberty) they've been able to do nothing about have an agenda alright. So do the many adults who've had parents rape them to 'fix them', send them to conversion therapy, beat them, made them homeless or tried to kill them. Not to mention how I was groomed by a fetishist because people who buy into YOUR ideology forced me to hide who I was, and I'd say transphobes like yourself drive trans kids directly into the arms of sexual predators because there's NOTHING like feeling misunderstood, lonely and ostracised to make a child vulnerable to abuse. What trans adults want is for trans children to be safe and also actually make it to adulthood. People are aggresive towards you because your ideology gets children traumatised or killed. If you perhaps took the time to listen to anyone outside of your echo chamber, you'd realise that.
People are kind and gentle when they are treated well by others, and trying to restrict other people's bodily autonomy, treating grown adults like children who are incapable of making our own life choices, constantly speaking over others regarding their own life experiences, making constant false accusations about trans people being somehow 'dangerous', or at best refusing to show us any kind of respect (how would you feel if everyone called you some embarrassing nickname your bullies gave you in school forever? That's how we feel.) is how transphobes act. Which are incidentally not things that typically inspire kindness. It also definitely doesn't inspire kindness that transphobes have physically attacked or harassed some cisgender women in women's spaces just because they have misogynistic ideas about what a 'real woman' is. My Mom got harassed for having a regional accent. A lot of people, trans and cis, are really not liking transphobe's misogyny. If you perhaps treated others with respect and didn't demonise them for existing, people might actually be nice to you but you cannot expect ANYONE to respect you when your ideology is based entirely on disrespecting others and pointless cruelty.
I hope you won't take this comment as an attack, because it's not meant to be; I just think it's important for people to have accurate information.
In most Western countries, the only way children are allowed to transition is socially - as in, trying out other pronouns and maybe changing their name. Puberty blockers were invented to help delay puberty, and are actually usually used on cisgender children; puberty is trending towards starting earlier than it ever used to (before they're 10 years old), and that's really not good for any kids. Puberty blockers stop working after you stop taking them, so puberty starts up again immediately - they are a temporary healthcare measure. This 'pause' also gives trans kids time to work out if they're actually interested in transitioning medically, or whether there are other issues that may be affecting how they think of their body (body dysmorphia, for example). "Trans surgery" is NOT for children (and if they don't go through the 'wrong' surgery, may not even be needed). I hope this information helps you!
He called what you're doing 'ugly and nasty' and said you're 'clearly on the wrong side of history'. I don't know where you got the idea that he's being 'kind and gentle' and not just speaking among friends.

Like….like….like…seriously where was this woman educated! A voice is an instrument use it to make beautiful music
When you fight something with a weapon which is essentially a word that is used to hurt or kill enemies, you can only use it x amount of times before it loses its strength.
"Hater, anyone that disagrees with me is a hater." These words these Hollywood celebrities use are weapons that no longer work.
What is the point of calling someone a hater when anyone they dislike or disagree with becomes one?
Phobe, ists, er, they no lober mean what these people think they do. That is what happens when you weaponize words for
your personal gain or exploiting others.
And everyone has already understood it except for this tiny bubble of likeminded "people" who still try to put fear into others by using said words or "ending on the wrong side of history." You are steadily moving there yourself.
It’s gonna be very interesting in 30 years time we can see the positive effects and the negative effects of this whole movement. It will be really interesting to see the adults then look back on their support and what their opinions will be and the whole generation of kids and teenagers.
Shame on him.

@@notendorpyxel same to you
That person says "like" more times than anyone I've ever heard. Like it's like every like other like word.
So?
they're nervous??
Yes it’s being used as a form of hedging
Can she not talk without saying 'like' every two words. Especially considering the gravity of the question.
They are not a native speaker and are naturally nervous about speaking to David. They did great.
"Like" is a word to fill space when you need a second to think.
As a non native English speaker (I'm German myself) you simply will have moments when speaking, where you have to translate the word you want to use and think about what word is the right one. That paired with speaking to a person, that makes you nervous or gets you star struck, like David in this case, will end up in a lot of silent moments during your speech. You'll have a bunch of 1-2 seconds where you don't say anything, because you have your sentence in your mind (usually in your native language) and need that second to translate it correctly.
Now imagine David would think you're done talking, every time there is this pause. He would accidentaly interrupt you all the time, even though you weren't finished yet. To compensate, people use filler words like "like", to show David "I'm not done talking yet, I just need a second to think." It's to have the sentence continue, even though you don't actually say anything in that moment.
Yes, it has become a habit for some people, even native speakers, to use it excessively, because they got used to it and they might use it when it isn't neccessary. The german equivalent would be the word "ähm" and I msyelf tend to use it too much sometimes, but getting rid of that habit once it's established itself is incredibly hard. Even more so when nervous or excited.
The gravity of her question was obviously not lost based on David's reaction and answer to it.
get off the internet grandma🗣️🗣️
Good to see you have a laser-like focus on what's really important about this video.
He’s not the brightest bulb in the box, which is no excuse for supporting the child abuse that is transitioning children
He didn't say a word about "transitioning children."
Being trans and transitioning are different things. And no one is transitioning kids, kids grow up to be adults and choose if they want to.
damn you are a sad, sad person, get well soon!! xx
Let's see. He's an internationally respected and successful actor and activist and loving family man; you're a sad youtube bigot. I wonder which one is brighter?
