That that kind 111 00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:04,400 Speaker 1: of caught me off guard because I was like, yo, 112 00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:06,760 Speaker 1: you're really saying that this is all that you have 113 00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:09,480 Speaker 1: to to give, you know what I mean. It's like 114 00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:11,640 Speaker 1: for me, it was more a question of not so 115 00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:14,279 Speaker 1: much her man right and her man expects from from 116 00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:17,080 Speaker 1: her or or requires or anything like that. It was 117 00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:20,200 Speaker 1: more case of is this really like the weight of 118 00:06:20,279 --> 00:06:22,640 Speaker 1: you as a woman? Like that was where I was 119 00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:24,000 Speaker 1: coming from, you know what I mean, because it was like, 120 00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:27,919 Speaker 1: as a woman, like, of course, your pussy is is great, 121 00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:34,680 Speaker 1: it's magical, apparently, how mean it much? She she got 122 00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:38,080 Speaker 1: a niggat, right, And I was saying, but at the 123 00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:41,360 Speaker 1: same time, it's like, as a woman, there's so much 124 00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:44,560 Speaker 1: that you'll have to offer that holds so much weight, 125 00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:48,480 Speaker 1: and I feel like in society we generally hold pussy 126 00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:51,640 Speaker 1: on the pedal stool. And it's like, if that's your 127 00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:54,240 Speaker 1: only contributing factor to relationship, how long is this really 128 00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:56,320 Speaker 1: gonna last? That was kind of my mindset, and it 129 00:06:56,360 --> 00:06:58,840 Speaker 1: was like, how are you comfortable with with saying this 130 00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:03,359 Speaker 1: when potentially that could be all that your relationships based 131 00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:05,080 Speaker 1: on them? And I think we dug too much into 132 00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:06,440 Speaker 1: that because we were like, we still don't get it, 133 00:07:06,440 --> 00:07:09,040 Speaker 1: we still don't get it. We still get it and listen, 134 00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:11,480 Speaker 1: it's got to be good. Um. But now you're on 135 00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:13,520 Speaker 1: our show because a new video has come onto b 136 00:07:13,640 --> 00:07:17,440 Speaker 1: K Chat where you came out as trans to your panel, 137 00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:21,600 Speaker 1: I was curious, did you before you auditioned, did you 138 00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:24,400 Speaker 1: tell them wow, what made you change?

And I 141 00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:33,960 Speaker 1: say that in a sense of coming from London, it's 142 00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:36,280 Speaker 1: evident that I'm known in a sense, you know what 143 00:07:36,280 --> 00:07:38,600 Speaker 1: I mean?

No, I would never know. But we 154 00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:08,680 Speaker 1: we want to get really deep into the discussion of 155 00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:11,960 Speaker 1: you being a trans man and that that's the correct terminology. 156 00:08:12,280 --> 00:08:14,320 Speaker 1: So we're gonna get into the trans man discussion.

See, I don't know, So I'm gonna admit 235 00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:06,200 Speaker 1: something I probably shouldn't, but it doesn't matter. I was young, Okay, 236 00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:10,680 Speaker 1: so before I started having sex, Like I had this 237 00:13:10,760 --> 00:13:16,080 Speaker 1: big teddy bear that I did. We all used are 238 00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:21,120 Speaker 1: stuffed animals. I didn't even have to. Well, you never hunched, 239 00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:22,880 Speaker 1: so you used to hunch the edge of your bed 240 00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:26,080 Speaker 1: and I used to hunch this big stuffed animals. So 241 00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:29,120 Speaker 1: you've never hunched anything that wasn't a post yourself again, 242 00:13:29,280 --> 00:13:34,760 Speaker 1: because I feel like a little kid does that. I 243 00:13:34,840 --> 00:13:37,760 Speaker 1: like really used to like grind, Like I used to 244 00:13:37,920 --> 00:13:40,160 Speaker 1: ride the hell out of my fucking teddy bear growing up, 245 00:13:40,200 --> 00:13:44,240 Speaker 1: and I proba, I'm not gonna lie. It used to 246 00:13:44,240 --> 00:13:47,040 Speaker 1: make my pussy really wet. And I was like probably 247 00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:49,520 Speaker 1: seven or eight or nine, really fucking the shot out 248 00:13:49,559 --> 00:13:52,120 Speaker 1: of my teddy bear. And so when when you said 249 00:13:52,160 --> 00:13:53,320 Speaker 1: that we were going to have this as a king, 250 00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:55,760 Speaker 1: I was like, bro fucking statues. But I'm not gonna lie. 251 00:13:55,760 --> 00:13:58,400 Speaker 1: There's this big old statue in Columbus Circle and it's 252 00:13:58,400 --> 00:14:01,680 Speaker 1: a big old it's a super Columbus naked. But no, 253 00:14:01,800 --> 00:14:03,720 Speaker 1: that's not the one with Dick showing. I'm talking about 254 00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:06,760 Speaker 1: the mall where you have the big guy and it's 255 00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:09,480 Speaker 1: like a and I just like to look at the 256 00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:12,199 Speaker 1: penis on the statue. I think it's you know, I'm 257 00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:14,760 Speaker 1: not by it now, I'm not turning on it, but 258 00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:20,240 Speaker 1: I was turned on by rubbing my goddamn um. Honestly, 259 00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:22,080 Speaker 1: I could have it on anything. I've been doing this 260 00:14:22,160 --> 00:14:24,840 Speaker 1: new thing with lover voice since he got home, so like, 261 00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:27,840 Speaker 1: you know, you'd be sucking his knee. No, but you 262 00:14:27,880 --> 00:14:30,440 Speaker 1: know how like when you with somebody, you already know 263 00:14:31,040 --> 00:14:32,800 Speaker 1: if you wanted to be long sex, it can but 264 00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:36,120 Speaker 1: could also be very short. Yep, we could like five minutes. 265 00:14:36,560 --> 00:14:39,040 Speaker 1: So now I think he'd just be ready to come 266 00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:40,960 Speaker 1: and go to bed. So like before we're about to, 267 00:14:41,200 --> 00:14:42,680 Speaker 1: he'll go down on me and I'll get on top 268 00:14:42,720 --> 00:14:44,360 Speaker 1: of him, and then he kind of just lets me 269 00:14:44,800 --> 00:14:46,480 Speaker 1: sit on his chest for a little bit while we 270 00:14:46,560 --> 00:14:49,240 Speaker 1: make out, or like on his stomach, and I come 271 00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:51,120 Speaker 1: like that bitch rubbing on like just as long as 272 00:14:51,160 --> 00:14:53,040 Speaker 1: like clip feel a little bit of dick.

Didn't have anyone 330 00:17:57,800 --> 00:18:00,199 Speaker 1: around him that was raising awareness in regards to what 331 00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:03,000 Speaker 1: it's like to be trans and the trials and relations 332 00:18:03,040 --> 00:18:06,120 Speaker 1: of being a young black or brown or person of color. 333 00:18:06,400 --> 00:18:08,080 Speaker 1: You know what I mean? That identifies as trend. So 334 00:18:08,080 --> 00:18:10,239 Speaker 1: I feel like it's very important for me and now 335 00:18:10,280 --> 00:18:12,680 Speaker 1: as an adult, to be the adult that I needed 336 00:18:12,720 --> 00:18:15,720 Speaker 1: as a child. So you said that no one, um 337 00:18:16,000 --> 00:18:18,439 Speaker 1: like a lot of people are listening and young adults 338 00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:20,600 Speaker 1: don't understand what it's like to go through this. So 339 00:18:20,720 --> 00:18:24,560 Speaker 1: can you explain how it was that you felt as 340 00:18:24,600 --> 00:18:27,360 Speaker 1: a child. Well, what you were born? Yeah, you were 341 00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:31,399 Speaker 1: born a female, correct, What was it like growing and 342 00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:34,240 Speaker 1: how did you deal with the trans how? Yeah, what 343 00:18:34,359 --> 00:18:37,320 Speaker 1: prompted you to transition? And I'm going to start with 344 00:18:37,359 --> 00:18:39,960 Speaker 1: your question first, which was age. I was eight years 345 00:18:39,960 --> 00:18:42,760 Speaker 1: old when I was first attracted to another female. So 346 00:18:42,840 --> 00:18:44,520 Speaker 1: not even when you know you were the wrong girl, No, 347 00:18:44,640 --> 00:18:46,680 Speaker 1: I had no idea at that point. All that I 348 00:18:46,760 --> 00:18:49,440 Speaker 1: knew was that the boys and girls playing kiss chase 349 00:18:49,480 --> 00:18:51,679 Speaker 1: in the playground, and I went on being kissed or 350 00:18:51,760 --> 00:18:55,800 Speaker 1: chased by no guy we're fighting from like what do 351 00:18:55,880 --> 00:18:58,080 Speaker 1: you mean? You know what I mean? But I knew 352 00:18:58,080 --> 00:19:01,399 Speaker 1: that I was attracted to a female, and for me, 353 00:19:01,440 --> 00:19:03,680 Speaker 1: it was like I couldn't comprehend it because I grew 354 00:19:03,720 --> 00:19:06,560 Speaker 1: up in a in a in a home where my 355 00:19:06,600 --> 00:19:09,840 Speaker 1: mom was with my stepdad at the time, had been 356 00:19:09,960 --> 00:19:12,280 Speaker 1: for years, and my older brother, who six years older 357 00:19:12,280 --> 00:19:19,800 Speaker 1: than me, had only ever been with females. Females. That's good, ROMI. 358 00:19:19,920 --> 00:19:24,720 Speaker 1: So I had never seen any interaction between any anyone 359 00:19:24,800 --> 00:19:28,679 Speaker 1: else other than males and females. So what city did 360 00:19:28,720 --> 00:19:32,360 Speaker 1: you grow up in? London? Okay? Okay? Now I felt 361 00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:34,560 Speaker 1: like London was progressive? Was it not? How do you 362 00:19:34,600 --> 00:19:39,520 Speaker 1: by the way six? Um? So at that time, London 363 00:19:39,600 --> 00:19:41,760 Speaker 1: is very progressive. London is very similar to New York 364 00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:45,840 Speaker 1: and in various senses. Um, it's very diverse, and yes, 365 00:19:45,840 --> 00:19:51,119 Speaker 1: it is very progressive. Um. However, back in those days, 366 00:19:51,280 --> 00:19:55,280 Speaker 1: there wasn't that like look look even here now in 367 00:19:55,280 --> 00:19:57,280 Speaker 1: the in the state's the same, even in the nineties. 368 00:19:57,280 --> 00:19:59,240 Speaker 1: We're just now progressing to where we can even have 369 00:19:59,280 --> 00:20:04,359 Speaker 1: this converse. There's still going to be something that do say. 370 00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:06,120 Speaker 1: And it is where it is, and this is where 371 00:20:06,160 --> 00:20:09,840 Speaker 1: this Conversations like this are very important to be heard. UM. 372 00:20:09,880 --> 00:20:11,960 Speaker 1: But but then and and also it depends on what 373 00:20:12,119 --> 00:20:13,760 Speaker 1: area you grow up. And I'm sure you guys are 374 00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:15,080 Speaker 1: aware of this. In New York. If you grew up 375 00:20:15,119 --> 00:20:16,520 Speaker 1: in a certain area in New York, there's certain things 376 00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:18,800 Speaker 1: that you're gonna be exposed to. UM. And there certain 377 00:20:18,800 --> 00:20:21,160 Speaker 1: things that you're you're definitely not going to be exposed 378 00:20:21,200 --> 00:20:22,560 Speaker 1: to you, you you know what I mean? And that was 379 00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:24,840 Speaker 1: very much so high. It was where I was living. 380 00:20:24,880 --> 00:20:28,560 Speaker 1: I grew up in a hood essentially speaking, and what 381 00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:30,679 Speaker 1: I was aware of and what I was exposed to 382 00:20:31,119 --> 00:20:36,960 Speaker 1: um wasn't anything close to the LGBTQ community. UM. In fact, 383 00:20:37,040 --> 00:20:39,200 Speaker 1: in terms of my friends at that moment in time, 384 00:20:39,560 --> 00:20:41,399 Speaker 1: you know, if we would even see anything like that, 385 00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:43,479 Speaker 1: and even me, like I was, I was a product 386 00:20:43,480 --> 00:20:45,240 Speaker 1: of my environment. If you could see anything like a 387 00:20:45,320 --> 00:20:48,320 Speaker 1: gamel was like, oh you're batty boy and what I'm saying. 388 00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:51,000 Speaker 1: And I'm from the Caribbean. Also my family is from 389 00:20:51,000 --> 00:20:53,360 Speaker 1: the Caribbean. So that was a big influence. Even after 390 00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:59,520 Speaker 1: the music bashment, a lot of bashment is that. So 391 00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:06,439 Speaker 1: now that's interesting because I'm like super curious because you 392 00:21:06,480 --> 00:21:09,320 Speaker 1: mentioned actually after Mike that you just said you were 393 00:21:09,320 --> 00:21:10,600 Speaker 1: from the hood, and you were like, you know, this 394 00:21:10,640 --> 00:21:14,679 Speaker 1: is not only culture, but race and race influences culture. 395 00:21:15,040 --> 00:21:18,000 Speaker 1: You think the black community, I think that the black 396 00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:24,359 Speaker 1: community is in this unfortunate bubble exactly that the word 397 00:21:24,400 --> 00:21:27,680 Speaker 1: real my mouth, in this bubble where they have this 398 00:21:28,080 --> 00:21:32,200 Speaker 1: um forced concept that it doesn't exist, that the LGBTQ 399 00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:36,080 Speaker 1: community does not exist in the Black community. And it's 400 00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:39,080 Speaker 1: like no, like first and foremost, but all of those 401 00:21:39,080 --> 00:21:40,960 Speaker 1: guys out there that are screaming Black lives matter, you 402 00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:43,320 Speaker 1: only need to understand that Black Lives Matter was created 403 00:21:43,359 --> 00:21:48,120 Speaker 1: by queer and gay folks that identified with the LGBTQ community, 404 00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:49,960 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. So you can't be out 405 00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:53,200 Speaker 1: here screaming Black lives matter but not accepting the fact 406 00:21:53,240 --> 00:21:56,399 Speaker 1: that all black lives matter. And that doesn't matter how 407 00:21:56,520 --> 00:21:58,520 Speaker 1: you identify it, you know what I mean. It doesn't 408 00:21:58,520 --> 00:22:01,480 Speaker 1: matter whether you're part of the or GBTQ community or not. 409 00:22:01,720 --> 00:22:03,720 Speaker 1: You are you you're screaming that you're part of this 410 00:22:03,960 --> 00:22:06,639 Speaker 1: movement and that you want to raise awareness for this 411 00:22:06,760 --> 00:22:08,640 Speaker 1: movement and you want justice for this movement, But yet 412 00:22:09,200 --> 00:22:11,600 Speaker 1: you're not accepting everyone in the whole entity. You know, 413 00:22:11,880 --> 00:22:15,080 Speaker 1: you think that's a masculinity issue, Like when talking about 414 00:22:15,119 --> 00:22:18,359 Speaker 1: toxic masculinity, do you think that the black community has 415 00:22:18,400 --> 00:22:22,520 Speaker 1: a masculinity issue? And it's like, I don't know. I 416 00:22:22,600 --> 00:22:25,440 Speaker 1: think that's a that's a that plays a huge part, 417 00:22:25,800 --> 00:22:28,800 Speaker 1: but on a bigger scale, I think it's about awareness. 418 00:22:28,920 --> 00:22:30,840 Speaker 1: Now you look at the media. The media plays a 419 00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:33,760 Speaker 1: big part in what we understand and what we're exposed to. 420 00:22:34,280 --> 00:22:37,359 Speaker 1: If you only ever see white folks. Actually, Like, one 421 00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:38,600 Speaker 1: of my questions is for you is how do you 422 00:22:38,640 --> 00:22:44,520 Speaker 1: feel about Calin I mean as a as a white transmant. Well, 423 00:22:44,920 --> 00:22:47,760 Speaker 1: then that would be a transferment transforment, correct, So going 424 00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:50,960 Speaker 1: from a male to a female would be considered a 425 00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:53,560 Speaker 1: trans woman. How do you feel about the I guess 426 00:22:53,640 --> 00:22:55,800 Speaker 1: the attention that she's got, not even that, but she's 427 00:22:55,840 --> 00:22:58,000 Speaker 1: like the face, well, we know she's not people that 428 00:22:58,359 --> 00:23:00,600 Speaker 1: I feel like every anybody that's down. No, she's not. 429 00:23:01,040 --> 00:23:05,119 Speaker 1: But and that goes back to the racial there's a 430 00:23:05,119 --> 00:23:08,000 Speaker 1: conversation and part of things because when you check it, 431 00:23:08,760 --> 00:23:11,280 Speaker 1: at the end of the day, everyone has everyone gets 432 00:23:11,320 --> 00:23:13,920 Speaker 1: to a point in life where they find themselves and 433 00:23:14,040 --> 00:23:16,080 Speaker 1: it doesn't. Age is not a factor in this. We can't. 434 00:23:16,720 --> 00:23:18,880 Speaker 1: People are looking at it like, oh, but she she's 435 00:23:18,920 --> 00:23:20,960 Speaker 1: had kids and being married and and you know she 436 00:23:21,080 --> 00:23:22,520 Speaker 1: was living her life as a man for so long. 437 00:23:22,640 --> 00:23:25,280 Speaker 1: What made her do it? Now? That's that's not that's 438 00:23:25,320 --> 00:23:27,040 Speaker 1: neither here nor there. I agree with you on that one. 439 00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:29,200 Speaker 1: A lot of people think that it's bullshit. I didn't. 440 00:23:29,280 --> 00:23:31,960 Speaker 1: I think it's real. It's real. You find, like everyone 441 00:23:32,080 --> 00:23:35,399 Speaker 1: has their points in their life where you find yourself 442 00:23:36,080 --> 00:23:38,440 Speaker 1: and age. Age isn't a factor in that, you know 443 00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:41,280 Speaker 1: what I mean? Like, you find your authentic self and 444 00:23:41,320 --> 00:23:43,359 Speaker 1: you want to live your authentic truth whenever you feel 445 00:23:43,440 --> 00:23:45,520 Speaker 1: ready to do so. Whether that means that now society 446 00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:48,680 Speaker 1: has become more progressive and opened the door for you 447 00:23:48,760 --> 00:23:50,719 Speaker 1: to be able to do so, whether you're you're more 448 00:23:50,720 --> 00:23:53,560 Speaker 1: accepting of yourself, you've done more research, whatever it may be. 449 00:23:53,720 --> 00:23:56,520 Speaker 1: That's even like for me, age isn't a factor. The 450 00:23:57,480 --> 00:24:02,320 Speaker 1: problem I have is that she's not the first trans 451 00:24:02,440 --> 00:24:07,840 Speaker 1: woman right ever. Right in fact, like there are other 452 00:24:07,920 --> 00:24:10,200 Speaker 1: trans women of color out there that have been out 453 00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:14,159 Speaker 1: there that have been advocating hard for for for trans 454 00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:20,720 Speaker 1: folks of color that have never had Janet mock Domain 455 00:24:20,880 --> 00:24:22,359 Speaker 1: was saying like, I can't tell you this is not 456 00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:24,440 Speaker 1: a beautiful when I was this podcast, Like I can't 457 00:24:24,440 --> 00:24:27,879 Speaker 1: tell you, like there's been people that's been doing it, 458 00:24:28,040 --> 00:24:30,040 Speaker 1: so it's it's just for me. It's just like, now 459 00:24:30,119 --> 00:24:33,000 Speaker 1: you've got this white woman of you know that's got 460 00:24:33,160 --> 00:24:39,800 Speaker 1: somewhere well, we know that that's standard white I guess, right, woman, 461 00:24:40,160 --> 00:24:42,119 Speaker 1: as long as you white, you've got that. You know, 462 00:24:42,280 --> 00:24:44,920 Speaker 1: people have to you know, learn to understand that. And 463 00:24:45,920 --> 00:24:49,359 Speaker 1: but anyway, that's a whole different conversation. But um, you've now, 464 00:24:49,359 --> 00:24:52,359 Speaker 1: I've got this white woman that's come from money, that 465 00:24:52,480 --> 00:24:55,440 Speaker 1: holds some form of power in the social um in 466 00:24:55,520 --> 00:24:58,359 Speaker 1: a in a social like economic situation, you know what 467 00:24:58,400 --> 00:25:00,119 Speaker 1: I mean. And all of a sudden, it's like all 468 00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:02,920 Speaker 1: the media is just focused on on her. And that's cool, 469 00:25:02,960 --> 00:25:05,119 Speaker 1: don't get me wrong, because you're living your truth and 470 00:25:05,320 --> 00:25:07,320 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, Like you've got the platform 471 00:25:07,560 --> 00:25:10,800 Speaker 1: to somewhat be an advocate for it. But that to me, 472 00:25:10,920 --> 00:25:13,320 Speaker 1: But little every other woman of color that's been out 473 00:25:13,400 --> 00:25:15,480 Speaker 1: here doing this, you know what I mean, And I'm 474 00:25:15,480 --> 00:25:18,639 Speaker 1: still not today getting the recognition that they should be getting. 475 00:25:19,000 --> 00:25:22,280 Speaker 1: And that goes back to the media and propaganda feeding 476 00:25:22,400 --> 00:25:27,439 Speaker 1: us looking at one of that, right, Well, I really 477 00:25:28,119 --> 00:25:31,000 Speaker 1: enjoy that we're even discussing the progression that we have 478 00:25:31,119 --> 00:25:33,119 Speaker 1: been made. But what I really want to do is 479 00:25:33,160 --> 00:25:36,160 Speaker 1: get back to your story. So when eight he realized 480 00:25:36,200 --> 00:25:40,399 Speaker 1: you liked women, at what was the next phase, Um 481 00:25:40,480 --> 00:25:42,600 Speaker 1: that you feel like that you went through through your 482 00:25:42,760 --> 00:25:46,280 Speaker 1: transition so you realize I'm different. I don't like the 483 00:25:46,359 --> 00:25:49,600 Speaker 1: opposite sex. What was the next phase? The next phase 484 00:25:49,640 --> 00:25:58,840 Speaker 1: for me was puby pubes, impub pubs. I mean I 485 00:25:58,960 --> 00:26:05,119 Speaker 1: was like pubes. Okay, puberty hits you canybe hit me, 486 00:26:05,680 --> 00:26:11,200 Speaker 1: and it was like, oh my gosh, like this is 487 00:26:11,320 --> 00:26:13,680 Speaker 1: not my body anymore, you know what I mean? Like 488 00:26:13,800 --> 00:26:18,440 Speaker 1: for a long time for me, gender and sex because 489 00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:21,000 Speaker 1: sex and gender two completely different things. Mind. I'm sorry 490 00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:22,800 Speaker 1: this segway, but I do want people to understand that 491 00:26:22,880 --> 00:26:26,880 Speaker 1: sexual orientation and gender identity. So sexual orientation is one 492 00:26:26,920 --> 00:26:31,480 Speaker 1: thing completely. Sexual orientation is who you're attracted to, what 493 00:26:31,640 --> 00:26:36,600 Speaker 1: you're attracted to. Gender identity. Gender identity is a mental thing. 494 00:26:36,880 --> 00:26:41,160 Speaker 1: It's whether you are. It's how you identify in social circles. 495 00:26:41,200 --> 00:26:46,280 Speaker 1: So whether you identify as a man in society right 496 00:26:46,640 --> 00:26:50,199 Speaker 1: and then? And then sex is in terms of anatomy, 497 00:26:50,560 --> 00:26:54,280 Speaker 1: and that's what makes you a straight man. No, because 498 00:26:54,320 --> 00:26:58,520 Speaker 1: you identify yourself that way. Yes, But look, sex is 499 00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:03,040 Speaker 1: so you was born, he was born a male or female. 500 00:27:04,119 --> 00:27:10,880 Speaker 1: That's six. Gender is man and woman.

Probably Yeah, this is that conversation that we 504 00:27:23,359 --> 00:27:24,959 Speaker 1: had with Sam White where everyone was like, how can 505 00:27:25,040 --> 00:27:28,080 Speaker 1: y'all know know the difference? Which excuse me, So let 506 00:27:28,119 --> 00:27:29,639 Speaker 1: me break this down for a listeners, because you did 507 00:27:29,680 --> 00:27:34,080 Speaker 1: a great job. So sex is male or female, gender 508 00:27:34,760 --> 00:27:38,240 Speaker 1: is man or woman, and in sexuality is what you're 509 00:27:38,240 --> 00:27:42,320 Speaker 1: attracted is attraction?

But for a 581 00:31:19,680 --> 00:31:21,200 Speaker 1: long time, my mom used to say to me, like, 582 00:31:21,840 --> 00:31:23,680 Speaker 1: you know, do you want me to get your sex change. 583 00:31:24,120 --> 00:31:25,800 Speaker 1: It's like you want me to you know, It's like 584 00:31:26,000 --> 00:31:28,280 Speaker 1: you got me working out here to say about all 585 00:31:28,320 --> 00:31:30,920 Speaker 1: my money to pay for a sex chafee.

And so now you've hit here ready high school. 590 00:31:47,800 --> 00:31:49,800 Speaker 1: High school is where I feel like a lot of us, 591 00:31:50,000 --> 00:31:53,920 Speaker 1: um not only judging were now then yeah, we're going 592 00:31:53,960 --> 00:31:57,960 Speaker 1: into adulthood and we're starting to have sex. Um we 593 00:31:58,080 --> 00:32:04,760 Speaker 1: were early like. But so transition into high school? Were 594 00:32:04,840 --> 00:32:08,520 Speaker 1: you picked on where you like? Did people understand where 595 00:32:08,560 --> 00:32:10,960 Speaker 1: you were coming from? So? And also at this point 596 00:32:11,160 --> 00:32:13,760 Speaker 1: we were looking at pictures on your Instagram and I 597 00:32:13,840 --> 00:32:16,080 Speaker 1: made the reference again, shoot me if I'm wrong. He 598 00:32:16,160 --> 00:32:20,479 Speaker 1: looked like a stud um and so we accept studs, 599 00:32:20,680 --> 00:32:24,360 Speaker 1: I feel like with no problem. So is that how 600 00:32:24,440 --> 00:32:26,920 Speaker 1: you identified in high school and then transition past that? 601 00:32:27,080 --> 00:32:30,960 Speaker 1: Or explain that for us? So disclaimer to anyone that 602 00:32:31,080 --> 00:32:34,520 Speaker 1: might be listening. For a long period of time, I 603 00:32:34,680 --> 00:32:37,920 Speaker 1: lied to females, Oh oh, this is good, because we 604 00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:40,680 Speaker 1: can't ask this question from the age of about fourteen 605 00:32:40,800 --> 00:32:44,040 Speaker 1: to at least sixty. And I would say I au 606 00:32:44,120 --> 00:32:51,440 Speaker 1: thirteen at because I was definitely about sixty. I was. 607 00:32:51,560 --> 00:32:53,520 Speaker 1: You know, they would assume and I wouldn't correct them, 608 00:32:53,640 --> 00:32:58,120 Speaker 1: you know what I mean? And and after some long 609 00:32:58,400 --> 00:33:01,800 Speaker 1: like thinking about my life and and how things panned 610 00:33:01,800 --> 00:33:05,040 Speaker 1: out and my transition thus far. I've got to the 611 00:33:05,120 --> 00:33:08,320 Speaker 1: realization that I feel like that part of me, that 612 00:33:08,400 --> 00:33:10,479 Speaker 1: part of me that was that was lying to females 613 00:33:10,560 --> 00:33:13,640 Speaker 1: and and had this like this, this kind of that 614 00:33:13,760 --> 00:33:16,000 Speaker 1: point of deception. I would say, you know what I mean, like, 615 00:33:16,280 --> 00:33:19,760 Speaker 1: I feel like that was me creating an alter ego 616 00:33:20,440 --> 00:33:23,080 Speaker 1: to allow me to be free to identify as who 617 00:33:23,160 --> 00:33:25,680 Speaker 1: I knew I was. But I was start in the 618 00:33:25,840 --> 00:33:30,160 Speaker 1: social like in the social struggle of identifying with what 619 00:33:30,400 --> 00:33:32,680 Speaker 1: is socially normal? Do you know what I mean? And 620 00:33:33,200 --> 00:33:35,880 Speaker 1: and so in saying that, I just want to put 621 00:33:35,920 --> 00:33:38,440 Speaker 1: out there, I don't for any young person that's listening, 622 00:33:38,720 --> 00:33:40,480 Speaker 1: whether you identify as trans or where you trying to 623 00:33:40,480 --> 00:33:43,560 Speaker 1: find yourself, Um, I would never want you to do 624 00:33:43,760 --> 00:33:48,200 Speaker 1: that because the backlash that you see, like the the 625 00:33:48,280 --> 00:33:50,280 Speaker 1: hardship that you see the female on the other end 626 00:33:50,320 --> 00:33:53,080 Speaker 1: go through. And we were just talking about that. So 627 00:33:54,120 --> 00:33:55,640 Speaker 1: he was just saying in a whole bunch of person 628 00:33:56,160 --> 00:34:01,520 Speaker 1: because well, you know, I was fingering still eating, but 629 00:34:01,800 --> 00:34:04,040 Speaker 1: at this point there wasn't there could have been a 630 00:34:05,680 --> 00:34:08,640 Speaker 1: right And so we talked about this on an episode 631 00:34:08,719 --> 00:34:12,080 Speaker 1: with um, James, which is one of these really close friends. 632 00:34:12,200 --> 00:34:16,600 Speaker 1: So James is super liberal, fuck you trans people don't 633 00:34:16,600 --> 00:34:19,440 Speaker 1: have to tell you ship blah blah blah. So Mandy 634 00:34:19,480 --> 00:34:21,239 Speaker 1: and James got into it because He's like, they don't 635 00:34:21,280 --> 00:34:23,319 Speaker 1: owe you anything. They don't have to tell you about 636 00:34:23,320 --> 00:34:25,880 Speaker 1: their genitals. Mandy's like, but I still deserve that. So 637 00:34:26,560 --> 00:34:30,600 Speaker 1: coming back and he said what he said about killing somebody, 638 00:34:31,239 --> 00:34:34,279 Speaker 1: I wanted to know from you specifically, do you feel 639 00:34:34,320 --> 00:34:37,279 Speaker 1: like it needs to be discussed when it does? How 640 00:34:37,480 --> 00:34:41,360 Speaker 1: soon it basically is it your writer? There's because you 641 00:34:41,440 --> 00:34:43,040 Speaker 1: also have the right to be private and that so 642 00:34:43,360 --> 00:34:45,839 Speaker 1: that's kind of where our questions aren't like how soon 643 00:34:45,920 --> 00:34:47,520 Speaker 1: a first date, when they get your number, when they 644 00:34:47,560 --> 00:34:49,839 Speaker 1: hauler at you. So I don't feel like I need 645 00:34:49,880 --> 00:34:54,920 Speaker 1: to disclose to anyone upon me and the trends. I 646 00:34:54,920 --> 00:34:59,560 Speaker 1: don't feel like that to various reasons because I disagree, 647 00:34:59,640 --> 00:35:05,399 Speaker 1: but cool, we can get into that. But I don't 648 00:35:05,440 --> 00:35:07,400 Speaker 1: feel like, you know, at the end of the day, 649 00:35:07,440 --> 00:35:10,080 Speaker 1: that's that's that's that's a part of me. And I 650 00:35:10,200 --> 00:35:16,320 Speaker 1: feel as though there's various things, not just transition centered, 651 00:35:16,400 --> 00:35:18,239 Speaker 1: but there's various things in people's lives that they don't 652 00:35:18,239 --> 00:35:21,239 Speaker 1: reveal upon meeting a person. Why, because where's this going? 653 00:35:21,320 --> 00:35:22,880 Speaker 1: Do I know that it's going anywhere? Why am I 654 00:35:22,880 --> 00:35:24,960 Speaker 1: going to reveal the deep? Why am I going to 655 00:35:25,040 --> 00:35:27,960 Speaker 1: reveal some of the deepest parts of me that are 656 00:35:28,080 --> 00:35:30,759 Speaker 1: so sacred to me to you? And I don't even 657 00:35:30,800 --> 00:35:32,880 Speaker 1: know where this is going this, this may not be 658 00:35:33,000 --> 00:35:35,480 Speaker 1: going anywhere. Why am I investing so much into you? 659 00:35:35,560 --> 00:35:37,480 Speaker 1: And I don't know how much you got invested in me. 660 00:35:37,560 --> 00:35:39,160 Speaker 1: I don't even know if I want to be that 661 00:35:39,320 --> 00:35:41,320 Speaker 1: invested in you yet, you know what I mean? And 662 00:35:41,600 --> 00:35:44,960 Speaker 1: I just feel like this notion, this forced notion that 663 00:35:45,440 --> 00:35:48,880 Speaker 1: trans people have to declare it. No, they do not. 664 00:35:49,520 --> 00:35:52,560 Speaker 1: They do not have to declare anything upon meeting someone, 665 00:35:52,680 --> 00:35:56,920 Speaker 1: upon a first date with someone. However, however, what I 666 00:35:57,000 --> 00:36:01,040 Speaker 1: will say is it is important to have these kinds 667 00:36:01,080 --> 00:36:05,000 Speaker 1: of discussions prior to intercourse. Oh, of course, that is 668 00:36:05,080 --> 00:36:08,960 Speaker 1: my standpoint on it. And I say that because, as 669 00:36:09,040 --> 00:36:13,239 Speaker 1: I said, the hardship that you see females go through 670 00:36:14,040 --> 00:36:17,680 Speaker 1: after finding out maybe and this sense of you took 671 00:36:17,840 --> 00:36:22,000 Speaker 1: something from me, you know what I mean, which you 672 00:36:22,120 --> 00:36:25,439 Speaker 1: took a part of me that perhaps I wasn't ready 673 00:36:25,520 --> 00:36:27,520 Speaker 1: to give you I didn't want to give you, and 674 00:36:27,640 --> 00:36:30,680 Speaker 1: it's it's that deception, you know what I mean. And 675 00:36:30,920 --> 00:36:34,640 Speaker 1: I feel like it's important before you you're intimate with 676 00:36:34,760 --> 00:36:37,279 Speaker 1: someone on that level, you give them the option to 677 00:36:37,440 --> 00:36:39,960 Speaker 1: say whether this is what they want, you know what 678 00:36:40,000 --> 00:36:42,080 Speaker 1: I mean. And a lot of transfolk might be listening 679 00:36:42,120 --> 00:36:44,640 Speaker 1: to me, and I feel like I'm not really rooting 680 00:36:44,680 --> 00:36:46,799 Speaker 1: for the team kind of thing because you know, at 681 00:36:46,840 --> 00:36:48,480 Speaker 1: the same time, there's a lot of trans folks and 682 00:36:48,560 --> 00:36:50,719 Speaker 1: we have to discuss. This's a lot of transpolks, predominantly 683 00:36:50,719 --> 00:36:54,120 Speaker 1: of color, that are being murdered, uh, pretty much every week. 684 00:36:54,200 --> 00:36:58,200 Speaker 1: And I'm glad that you really like your perspective because 685 00:36:58,480 --> 00:37:00,600 Speaker 1: that was the one I had. I would want someone 686 00:37:00,640 --> 00:37:02,560 Speaker 1: to tell me before sex, but I don't feel like 687 00:37:02,640 --> 00:37:04,600 Speaker 1: they owe me that. No, if I feel like I'm 688 00:37:04,600 --> 00:37:07,440 Speaker 1: going on a date with a man, I am. I mean, 689 00:37:08,680 --> 00:37:10,440 Speaker 1: the only thing that I thinks, and it's just like 690 00:37:10,560 --> 00:37:12,600 Speaker 1: if you had. I hate comparing it to this, but 691 00:37:13,280 --> 00:37:15,160 Speaker 1: something to tell during sex is if you've got an 692 00:37:15,239 --> 00:37:17,000 Speaker 1: STD right, I don't need to know that when I 693 00:37:17,080 --> 00:37:19,200 Speaker 1: meet you or a dinner and we it's crazy because 694 00:37:19,280 --> 00:37:22,800 Speaker 1: we had um Ella who has her pies and she 695 00:37:23,040 --> 00:37:25,759 Speaker 1: came out openly and was like a couple of guys 696 00:37:25,800 --> 00:37:27,839 Speaker 1: who she has met on the first time, She's like, hey, 697 00:37:27,920 --> 00:37:29,759 Speaker 1: I have herpes. I'm known as the Herpe's girl. You know. 698 00:37:29,920 --> 00:37:32,160 Speaker 1: Well she's got ted talks about it. She has ted 699 00:37:32,239 --> 00:37:34,440 Speaker 1: talks about it. Yeah, but that was something I think 700 00:37:34,480 --> 00:37:38,400 Speaker 1: that's different, like, oh, how's the calumari? Good? I got 701 00:37:38,440 --> 00:37:41,040 Speaker 1: down here? See, I don't know. To me, that's something 702 00:37:41,120 --> 00:37:43,840 Speaker 1: that's private, like just about like just like living with HIV, 703 00:37:44,000 --> 00:37:46,600 Speaker 1: which part of being in the LGBT community. This this 704 00:37:46,719 --> 00:37:48,960 Speaker 1: happens and I know about it. No, you don't need 705 00:37:49,040 --> 00:37:51,239 Speaker 1: to tell someone when you meet them your status in 706 00:37:51,360 --> 00:37:53,759 Speaker 1: that way because you haven't sucked them yet and you 707 00:37:53,800 --> 00:37:55,319 Speaker 1: don't know if you want to, and it's something that's 708 00:37:55,360 --> 00:37:57,200 Speaker 1: so revealing in private. I think that a lot more 709 00:37:57,239 --> 00:37:59,880 Speaker 1: people on the other shot side should be sensitive to that. 710 00:38:00,280 --> 00:38:02,040 Speaker 1: If you had a first day and see, to me, 711 00:38:02,320 --> 00:38:04,080 Speaker 1: I'll sit here and break it down this way. I 712 00:38:04,200 --> 00:38:09,040 Speaker 1: feel like the same way with with progress, we're learning 713 00:38:09,080 --> 00:38:13,040 Speaker 1: to be sensitive to you know, you your transition, how 714 00:38:13,120 --> 00:38:16,959 Speaker 1: you identify. I feel like as a trans man trans woman, 715 00:38:17,360 --> 00:38:21,319 Speaker 1: you also need to be sensitive to the heterosexuals who 716 00:38:21,520 --> 00:38:25,480 Speaker 1: a are not fully comfortable with with what you're going through. 717 00:38:25,520 --> 00:38:28,120 Speaker 1: They don't understand, they don't know how to respond to it. 718 00:38:28,560 --> 00:38:32,160 Speaker 1: And with the hyper masculinity and men women are a 719 00:38:32,200 --> 00:38:34,200 Speaker 1: little different. I feel like it may be easier for you, 720 00:38:34,640 --> 00:38:38,680 Speaker 1: but on the other end of the spectrum, men have 721 00:38:39,000 --> 00:38:43,040 Speaker 1: a different idea. We had an engineering here before, and 722 00:38:43,120 --> 00:38:46,920 Speaker 1: that was his very first question, like, um, when when 723 00:38:47,000 --> 00:38:49,200 Speaker 1: when do they tell me that he was a nigga 724 00:38:49,200 --> 00:38:51,880 Speaker 1: at one point? And this is again from a trans woman, 725 00:38:52,360 --> 00:38:56,120 Speaker 1: but it's just like for straight people, I feel like 726 00:38:56,320 --> 00:38:58,040 Speaker 1: you need to have the respect and be just as 727 00:38:58,080 --> 00:39:01,040 Speaker 1: sensitive to kind of letting them in. What would be 728 00:39:01,080 --> 00:39:03,799 Speaker 1: your ideal situation He just said when meeting somebody, which 729 00:39:04,000 --> 00:39:07,320 Speaker 1: if you do date, we're sitting here someone's number in 730 00:39:07,320 --> 00:39:09,080 Speaker 1: the club, do you agree with that party? He doesn't 731 00:39:09,080 --> 00:39:12,960 Speaker 1: have to you can get getting someone's number, But I'm 732 00:39:13,000 --> 00:39:16,600 Speaker 1: comfortable with at the end of date one, if we're 733 00:39:16,640 --> 00:39:20,600 Speaker 1: going on a second date, that means you're progressing to 734 00:39:20,760 --> 00:39:23,040 Speaker 1: me as a female like myna. We're not going on 735 00:39:23,080 --> 00:39:24,800 Speaker 1: another day if I don't want to see you. And 736 00:39:25,120 --> 00:39:26,719 Speaker 1: men kind of the same way, if they're not really 737 00:39:26,719 --> 00:39:28,080 Speaker 1: digging a female, they're not going to see them. You 738 00:39:28,160 --> 00:39:30,880 Speaker 1: need him to tell you that, Like at the end 739 00:39:30,920 --> 00:39:33,160 Speaker 1: of the first day, if we sum or not the 740 00:39:33,239 --> 00:39:35,640 Speaker 1: exact day before, if we're on the phone planning a 741 00:39:35,719 --> 00:39:38,480 Speaker 1: second day, to me, that's progress. To me, we're going 742 00:39:38,560 --> 00:39:40,319 Speaker 1: in a direction to see each other more than once. 743 00:39:40,760 --> 00:39:43,680 Speaker 1: That's where I draw the line to where, Okay, I 744 00:39:43,800 --> 00:39:46,799 Speaker 1: see us now moving forward one day. Okay, we're meeting 745 00:39:46,960 --> 00:39:48,520 Speaker 1: at the end of day one. If we plan to 746 00:39:48,520 --> 00:39:51,800 Speaker 1: see each other again, that's when I feel like you 747 00:39:51,840 --> 00:39:55,240 Speaker 1: should let me know because as a as a straight person, 748 00:39:55,360 --> 00:39:59,640 Speaker 1: well I'm not even straight, I like, but I'm talking 749 00:39:59,680 --> 00:40:04,840 Speaker 1: from my straight people as someone who would be straight 750 00:40:05,040 --> 00:40:07,560 Speaker 1: and may not go both ways or like both, you know, 751 00:40:07,760 --> 00:40:10,040 Speaker 1: I think that that's when you should let them know.

She 887 00:47:07,719 --> 00:47:09,880 Speaker 1: knew the whole time. She she was basically saying that 888 00:47:09,960 --> 00:47:11,840 Speaker 1: she had known for a minute and she wanted to 889 00:47:11,960 --> 00:47:14,960 Speaker 1: just and she wanted to rock with me. Her her 890 00:47:15,800 --> 00:47:19,600 Speaker 1: explanation was, my sex was good. Oh so she was 891 00:47:19,680 --> 00:47:22,120 Speaker 1: with it. But for me, it was kind of like, 892 00:47:23,200 --> 00:47:25,120 Speaker 1: how do we progress from here? You know what I mean? 893 00:47:25,640 --> 00:47:28,160 Speaker 1: And and she was the first female that even though 894 00:47:28,280 --> 00:47:30,759 Speaker 1: she we stayed together after that point, were together nine 895 00:47:30,800 --> 00:47:33,480 Speaker 1: months in total, and she she found out, well she 896 00:47:33,760 --> 00:47:37,359 Speaker 1: let me know she knew at the three months mark roughly. Um, 897 00:47:37,719 --> 00:47:39,360 Speaker 1: but even up to today, she's kind of like, she 898 00:47:39,480 --> 00:47:42,120 Speaker 1: feels like I betrayed her, you know what I mean? 899 00:47:42,239 --> 00:47:45,040 Speaker 1: And I made her question her sexuality up until now. 900 00:47:45,280 --> 00:47:46,879 Speaker 1: And that's crazy because that was gonna be my next 901 00:47:46,960 --> 00:47:49,839 Speaker 1: question to you. You've been in three serious relationships, one 902 00:47:50,800 --> 00:47:54,360 Speaker 1: being your wife. Now do they identify as lesbians like 903 00:47:55,840 --> 00:47:59,000 Speaker 1: my wife or as in the women that you dealt with, 904 00:47:59,200 --> 00:48:01,839 Speaker 1: because even though you identify as a male, you still 905 00:48:01,920 --> 00:48:05,480 Speaker 1: have female parts. So do they do do they like 906 00:48:05,560 --> 00:48:07,719 Speaker 1: women or do they like like how do the people 907 00:48:07,760 --> 00:48:11,440 Speaker 1: that you deal with identify? So the two previous partners 908 00:48:11,480 --> 00:48:14,640 Speaker 1: I have been with they one of them doesn't identify 909 00:48:14,680 --> 00:48:18,000 Speaker 1: as lesbian. UM. In fact, she she we had been 910 00:48:18,040 --> 00:48:20,759 Speaker 1: friends for three years prior to again together and UM, 911 00:48:21,280 --> 00:48:23,359 Speaker 1: and she was basically like it was me. She felt 912 00:48:23,400 --> 00:48:25,560 Speaker 1: for me as a as a person. I wasn't about 913 00:48:25,800 --> 00:48:28,000 Speaker 1: you know, male or female, man or woman. It was 914 00:48:28,080 --> 00:48:30,799 Speaker 1: the fact that she she was attracted to me as 915 00:48:30,840 --> 00:48:33,040 Speaker 1: a person, and we went from there. But then when 916 00:48:33,040 --> 00:48:34,520 Speaker 1: it came down to me telling her that I was, 917 00:48:35,280 --> 00:48:38,480 Speaker 1: I wasn't happy and content as as a female. You know, 918 00:48:38,600 --> 00:48:41,120 Speaker 1: that's kind of when things started going left. She wasn't 919 00:48:41,160 --> 00:48:44,960 Speaker 1: really down for this, for being with a trance, although 920 00:48:45,040 --> 00:48:47,960 Speaker 1: she wasn't really down for also letting her friends and 921 00:48:48,040 --> 00:48:50,840 Speaker 1: family too much know that UM she was also with 922 00:48:51,040 --> 00:48:53,879 Speaker 1: Because at that moment time I was identifying as a start, 923 00:48:53,920 --> 00:48:56,800 Speaker 1: I was in the social circle and not so I was. 924 00:48:57,000 --> 00:48:59,920 Speaker 1: I was trying to label myself as what society accepted 925 00:49:00,280 --> 00:49:03,480 Speaker 1: exactly what I said at that time, because I was 926 00:49:04,440 --> 00:49:07,080 Speaker 1: eighteen at that point. So you know, we're still to 927 00:49:07,160 --> 00:49:09,520 Speaker 1: more a few years ago when you know, progression wasn't 928 00:49:09,560 --> 00:49:12,800 Speaker 1: quite a way it was not um so uh and 929 00:49:12,880 --> 00:49:16,320 Speaker 1: then the female before after that storry, UM, I was 930 00:49:16,400 --> 00:49:18,560 Speaker 1: here for four years, and she did identify as a 931 00:49:18,680 --> 00:49:21,200 Speaker 1: lesbian and again the same thing. But but you know, 932 00:49:21,239 --> 00:49:22,920 Speaker 1: when it came down to using pronouns and stuff, she 933 00:49:22,960 --> 00:49:24,560 Speaker 1: was good with that because I pretty much told her 934 00:49:24,600 --> 00:49:26,800 Speaker 1: from the off, But at the same time, when it 935 00:49:26,880 --> 00:49:28,759 Speaker 1: came when when she hit the fan and it was 936 00:49:28,920 --> 00:49:31,239 Speaker 1: really time for me to start transition, and she wasn't 937 00:49:31,280 --> 00:49:36,359 Speaker 1: really down with it. She couldn't really understandish. That's interesting, yeah, 938 00:49:36,600 --> 00:49:40,600 Speaker 1: because she's like, no, for you, I'm curious because I 939 00:49:40,680 --> 00:49:44,120 Speaker 1: haven't had a friend that was a transmail and he 940 00:49:44,280 --> 00:49:48,680 Speaker 1: talked about not enjoying women wanting to like his pussy. 941 00:49:49,160 --> 00:49:50,760 Speaker 1: He's like, I don't like that. I don't like people 942 00:49:51,440 --> 00:49:54,560 Speaker 1: talking to me like that. Like so for her to say, lesbian, 943 00:49:54,600 --> 00:49:56,800 Speaker 1: did you not enjoy because that's the part that she 944 00:49:56,880 --> 00:49:58,560 Speaker 1: liked about it seems especially if she didn't like that 945 00:49:58,600 --> 00:50:02,080 Speaker 1: you were transitioning, so because they're not more girl on there, 946 00:50:05,200 --> 00:50:06,960 Speaker 1: so I can understand how she was attracted to it, 947 00:50:07,120 --> 00:50:09,880 Speaker 1: Like that's it's almost gone. So in terms of like 948 00:50:10,120 --> 00:50:14,120 Speaker 1: how she identified, um, that was a problem for me 949 00:50:14,360 --> 00:50:18,719 Speaker 1: because her her identifying as a lesbian of course right 950 00:50:19,280 --> 00:50:23,320 Speaker 1: meant that she was with a woman and that wasn't me. 951 00:50:24,400 --> 00:50:26,560 Speaker 1: I was. I felt trapped in the in the body 952 00:50:26,640 --> 00:50:29,200 Speaker 1: that I had. UM. I felt like nature did this 953 00:50:29,400 --> 00:50:32,080 Speaker 1: justice to me. Um And I wasn't comfortable with that 954 00:50:32,200 --> 00:50:35,520 Speaker 1: at all. Um. And in terms of like sexual like 955 00:50:36,000 --> 00:50:40,120 Speaker 1: sexual interaction and stuff, there was like back then as 956 00:50:40,160 --> 00:50:41,719 Speaker 1: a stud I guess I would be classes are touched 957 00:50:41,800 --> 00:50:46,719 Speaker 1: me not Um. Yes, in terms of like you know, 958 00:50:46,880 --> 00:50:48,320 Speaker 1: I can strap up, I can do all that, but 959 00:50:48,320 --> 00:50:50,320 Speaker 1: you ain't gonna touch me. There's there's none of that 960 00:50:50,480 --> 00:50:54,120 Speaker 1: rabbit playing. I mean, there's none of that dildos and 961 00:50:54,160 --> 00:50:55,680 Speaker 1: all that kind of study ain't gonna be doing all 962 00:50:55,719 --> 00:50:56,960 Speaker 1: of that on me. And I'm saying so I was 963 00:50:57,000 --> 00:50:58,560 Speaker 1: very much so I touched me not. I have a 964 00:50:58,680 --> 00:51:01,720 Speaker 1: question about that. So how do you you get pleasure? 965 00:51:02,080 --> 00:51:06,480 Speaker 1: Because I've worn a strap on before and I meant 966 00:51:06,560 --> 00:51:08,480 Speaker 1: I might get wet, but it doesn't make me come. 967 00:51:08,719 --> 00:51:12,360 Speaker 1: It doesn't really please me more as it does you know, mentally, 968 00:51:12,400 --> 00:51:14,799 Speaker 1: I'm stimulated, but it doesn't really please me. So if 969 00:51:14,800 --> 00:51:16,640 Speaker 1: you're a touch me not or you're you know, how 970 00:51:16,719 --> 00:51:20,239 Speaker 1: do you become how do you get pleasured? You just don't? 971 00:51:20,360 --> 00:51:23,560 Speaker 1: That is that is my pleasure, that's your pleasure. Yeah, 972 00:51:23,560 --> 00:51:25,600 Speaker 1: I think that's a misinception for a lot of people. Yeah, 973 00:51:25,880 --> 00:51:30,000 Speaker 1: we don't because we get in another way exactly. I mean, 974 00:51:30,080 --> 00:51:35,520 Speaker 1: I really like penetration. Okay, they don't need to be tops, don't. 975 00:51:35,560 --> 00:51:37,040 Speaker 1: I mean we take it like game and like tops 976 00:51:37,080 --> 00:51:39,960 Speaker 1: don't need it. Yeah, but but tops feel the pleasure 977 00:51:40,040 --> 00:51:42,600 Speaker 1: of going in a pussy. When you have a strap on, 978 00:51:43,320 --> 00:51:46,240 Speaker 1: you don't feel the pleasure of going inside of the pussy, 979 00:51:46,480 --> 00:51:50,680 Speaker 1: but you get the mental stimulation. And I guess in 980 00:51:50,800 --> 00:51:55,040 Speaker 1: that sense that's what gives you that that stimulation in 981 00:51:55,200 --> 00:51:57,040 Speaker 1: other ways, you know what I mean, Like from time. 982 00:51:57,320 --> 00:51:59,440 Speaker 1: For me, it's like a lot of people say, oh, 983 00:52:01,600 --> 00:52:05,799 Speaker 1: I'm I'm aroused by the intelligence of another being, right, 984 00:52:06,160 --> 00:52:08,000 Speaker 1: Like a lot of people are like that. They're like um, 985 00:52:08,280 --> 00:52:12,919 Speaker 1: saipo sexual sexual um. And that is how they're They're 986 00:52:12,960 --> 00:52:16,040 Speaker 1: turned on by by feeding on for someone else's knowledge 987 00:52:16,960 --> 00:52:19,560 Speaker 1: a mind, right, And a lot of people find that weird, 988 00:52:19,680 --> 00:52:22,800 Speaker 1: But that's that's a mental thing. It's a mental stimulation 989 00:52:22,840 --> 00:52:25,640 Speaker 1: which stimulates them in other ways. Um. And for me 990 00:52:25,800 --> 00:52:29,080 Speaker 1: it's very much so. Because I do not identify as 991 00:52:29,160 --> 00:52:33,560 Speaker 1: a female. I don't want any association to that. So 992 00:52:33,800 --> 00:52:37,480 Speaker 1: for me, like penetrating my my wife or you know, 993 00:52:37,680 --> 00:52:39,840 Speaker 1: back in the day, penetrating any woman with with my 994 00:52:39,920 --> 00:52:42,359 Speaker 1: strap was enough for me and it still is enough 995 00:52:42,440 --> 00:52:45,560 Speaker 1: for me. Okay, And so I want to talk now 996 00:52:45,760 --> 00:52:49,000 Speaker 1: briefly because we're running out of time, unfortunately, I know, 997 00:52:49,200 --> 00:52:52,040 Speaker 1: but I do want to ask you now, um as 998 00:52:52,040 --> 00:52:55,520 Speaker 1: an adult the transition. I'm not like my nigger. You 999 00:52:55,640 --> 00:52:58,880 Speaker 1: look like a straight man. Um. So I want to 1000 00:52:58,920 --> 00:53:02,200 Speaker 1: talk about like you facial hair, your voice is rather deep. Um. 1001 00:53:02,239 --> 00:53:03,759 Speaker 1: I know my mama got a deep voice, but not 1002 00:53:03,920 --> 00:53:07,920 Speaker 1: like this. Um. So, what what is it like to transition? 1003 00:53:08,000 --> 00:53:09,759 Speaker 1: What have you gone through? What? What? What do you 1004 00:53:09,840 --> 00:53:12,520 Speaker 1: have to take people you know that don't understand how 1005 00:53:12,640 --> 00:53:14,120 Speaker 1: this works? I would love for you to break you 1006 00:53:14,360 --> 00:53:19,440 Speaker 1: Like I think you're you're like the epitome of that's 1007 00:53:19,520 --> 00:53:22,680 Speaker 1: ready to transition. Like so yeah, like the beard, you have, 1008 00:53:22,880 --> 00:53:25,320 Speaker 1: the voice. What have you had to do to undergo 1009 00:53:25,520 --> 00:53:30,040 Speaker 1: this transition physically? So? Um, in terms of the physical journey, 1010 00:53:30,080 --> 00:53:34,120 Speaker 1: the the you know in this thus far at um 1011 00:53:35,120 --> 00:53:38,360 Speaker 1: in terms of like facial features and well, not so 1012 00:53:38,440 --> 00:53:40,680 Speaker 1: much facial feature because my face hasn't really changed, No, 1013 00:53:40,760 --> 00:53:42,200 Speaker 1: I mean like in that sense. By in terms of 1014 00:53:42,320 --> 00:53:45,720 Speaker 1: like um, growing hair and voice deepen in or dropping 1015 00:53:46,239 --> 00:53:49,560 Speaker 1: um and weight shift because these these are because you 1016 00:53:49,680 --> 00:53:53,719 Speaker 1: have muscles, right, your arms look really like a real 1017 00:53:53,880 --> 00:53:58,000 Speaker 1: much like you've always been. To be honest, like before 1018 00:53:58,040 --> 00:54:00,320 Speaker 1: I transition, like when I when I started my journey, 1019 00:54:00,440 --> 00:54:02,400 Speaker 1: I'm gonna ask you a question first, all right, So 1020 00:54:03,040 --> 00:54:05,719 Speaker 1: it starts. It goes like you have to go and 1021 00:54:05,760 --> 00:54:09,839 Speaker 1: see a therapist first or psychologist first, UM. And then 1022 00:54:09,920 --> 00:54:12,239 Speaker 1: once you do that, they this is in England at least, 1023 00:54:12,520 --> 00:54:14,759 Speaker 1: and then they will refer you to something called the 1024 00:54:14,840 --> 00:54:17,319 Speaker 1: Gender Identity Clinic. Once they referred you to the gender 1025 00:54:17,480 --> 00:54:20,120 Speaker 1: gender Identity you don't have to see another psychologist in 1026 00:54:20,360 --> 00:54:23,239 Speaker 1: in that center. Once you've done that, then they will 1027 00:54:23,400 --> 00:54:26,480 Speaker 1: assess whether you're ready to start your hormone therapy. Hormo 1028 00:54:26,600 --> 00:54:32,440 Speaker 1: therapy UM as in physically is UM something called testosterone. 1029 00:54:32,600 --> 00:54:34,479 Speaker 1: We are aware of it. And then for the trans 1030 00:54:34,560 --> 00:54:36,760 Speaker 1: women they're taking a strangers, they will take a students pills. 1031 00:54:36,800 --> 00:54:38,360 Speaker 1: I believe, but I can't speak to you heavily on 1032 00:54:38,440 --> 00:54:42,880 Speaker 1: that just because I'm for transman. You take yes, it 1033 00:54:42,960 --> 00:54:45,200 Speaker 1: doesn't necessarily have to be shot straight away. It might 1034 00:54:45,280 --> 00:54:48,640 Speaker 1: be a jail for a pill. No, there's no pill 1035 00:54:48,760 --> 00:54:52,040 Speaker 1: for testos. It might be a jail you rub it, 1036 00:54:52,120 --> 00:54:54,000 Speaker 1: so you rub it in certain places on the body 1037 00:54:54,400 --> 00:54:57,440 Speaker 1: and that that seeps into the into the bloodstream, um, 1038 00:54:58,200 --> 00:55:01,400 Speaker 1: the same way those packets, but it's not they're not 1039 00:55:01,520 --> 00:55:04,520 Speaker 1: as effective. Um, but they're not as the shots because 1040 00:55:04,560 --> 00:55:07,240 Speaker 1: the shots, uh enter your muscle, and obviously a muscle 1041 00:55:07,320 --> 00:55:09,960 Speaker 1: is a quick, fastest way to get through the body. Um. 1042 00:55:10,160 --> 00:55:12,000 Speaker 1: Do they have to do you have to do this 1043 00:55:12,360 --> 00:55:15,040 Speaker 1: for the rest of your life? Yes, okay, okay, of 1044 00:55:15,120 --> 00:55:17,640 Speaker 1: course it's it's you know, um, I don't know if 1045 00:55:17,680 --> 00:55:19,560 Speaker 1: it was ten. No, it is for the rest of 1046 00:55:19,560 --> 00:55:22,080 Speaker 1: your life. However, you know, Um, there's certain things that 1047 00:55:22,120 --> 00:55:25,680 Speaker 1: are irreversible. Right, so in terms of like my voice hair, um, 1048 00:55:26,880 --> 00:55:30,080 Speaker 1: weightshift isn't irreversible. But but there's certain things that are irreversible. 1049 00:55:30,440 --> 00:55:33,600 Speaker 1: So they could get for me or anyone, they could 1050 00:55:33,640 --> 00:55:35,160 Speaker 1: get to a point in their life where they're like, Okay, 1051 00:55:35,160 --> 00:55:37,960 Speaker 1: I've seen as much physical changes as I could possibly get. 1052 00:55:38,280 --> 00:55:41,359 Speaker 1: I'm going to stop here. But if they haven't had 1053 00:55:41,360 --> 00:55:43,759 Speaker 1: a hysterect to me yet, they're obviously going to have 1054 00:55:44,000 --> 00:55:48,080 Speaker 1: periods after right, right, that's w Yeah, that's so anyone 1055 00:55:48,320 --> 00:55:53,799 Speaker 1: any trans mail probably wouldn't stop taking testosterone unless they 1056 00:55:53,840 --> 00:55:56,399 Speaker 1: had a hystereict to me, so the testosterone doesn't stop 1057 00:55:56,480 --> 00:55:59,600 Speaker 1: the period, but the hystorrect me does. No testosterone doest 1058 00:56:01,000 --> 00:56:02,680 Speaker 1: which maybe I need to if you if you stop 1059 00:56:02,840 --> 00:56:05,279 Speaker 1: taking the testosterone and you haven't had a history to me, 1060 00:56:05,520 --> 00:56:07,600 Speaker 1: then you all go to have period. Have you had 1061 00:56:07,600 --> 00:56:11,360 Speaker 1: a v sectomy? Okay? But to me is just for 1062 00:56:11,560 --> 00:56:18,040 Speaker 1: me is okay? I'm sorry? Sorry? Sorry, yes, I mean, 1063 00:56:18,600 --> 00:56:20,319 Speaker 1: uh am I wrong? Is that not what it is? Okay? 1064 00:56:20,600 --> 00:56:27,120 Speaker 1: So what historrect to me is your warm removed. Must 1065 00:56:27,120 --> 00:56:29,680 Speaker 1: sect to me is getting your breast removed, and thus 1066 00:56:29,760 --> 00:56:33,279 Speaker 1: sect to me is getting your balls removed. Correct. V 1067 00:56:33,400 --> 00:56:38,080 Speaker 1: Sectomy is balls, right, preach? Yeah, but what sectomy is 1068 00:56:38,120 --> 00:56:40,399 Speaker 1: when you eliminate your ball so that you can't get 1069 00:56:42,200 --> 00:56:46,640 Speaker 1: that's cutting out they ain't go. No, that have drained 1070 00:56:46,680 --> 00:56:49,160 Speaker 1: them that they can't get in a pregnant Yeah. Oh wait, 1071 00:56:49,160 --> 00:56:51,560 Speaker 1: I think I'm thinking of neutering when you neuter an animals. 1072 00:56:56,040 --> 00:57:00,200 Speaker 1: But sectmy is just draining of the sperm, cut the cords, sorry, 1073 00:57:02,239 --> 00:57:04,480 Speaker 1: and then must activy is cutting out the tissue. So 1074 00:57:04,600 --> 00:57:06,400 Speaker 1: have you cut out the tissue of your breath? But 1075 00:57:06,719 --> 00:57:11,719 Speaker 1: we to surgery in the community. But yet Okay, okay, wow, 1076 00:57:12,040 --> 00:57:14,120 Speaker 1: this is a lot of information. She's just really happy 1077 00:57:14,200 --> 00:57:16,640 Speaker 1: because you don't understand, like me and Mandy have actually 1078 00:57:16,720 --> 00:57:19,200 Speaker 1: argued on air. My word did you say? I think 1079 00:57:19,240 --> 00:57:22,360 Speaker 1: I said training or trailing or trams. So let's talk 1080 00:57:23,000 --> 00:57:26,080 Speaker 1: real quick before we go. I want to talk about, Yeah, 1081 00:57:26,240 --> 00:57:28,960 Speaker 1: what are the slurs or things that are offensive to 1082 00:57:29,200 --> 00:57:34,200 Speaker 1: the trans community? Now, she said on our horrible decisions. 1083 00:57:34,400 --> 00:57:36,920 Speaker 1: And I'm not calling you out. I'm taking serious. My 1084 00:57:36,960 --> 00:57:39,080 Speaker 1: friends call me. It was like, listen, I need to 1085 00:57:39,120 --> 00:57:40,760 Speaker 1: talk to you before you guys do this because Mandy 1086 00:57:40,840 --> 00:57:42,040 Speaker 1: just went on and said, we're going to have a 1087 00:57:42,120 --> 00:57:46,440 Speaker 1: transgender on Is that not a to me? This is 1088 00:57:46,520 --> 00:57:48,640 Speaker 1: my argument. I said, if we were going to have 1089 00:57:49,000 --> 00:57:54,360 Speaker 1: a female on a mail on, a escort on, goddamn, 1090 00:57:54,440 --> 00:57:57,200 Speaker 1: everything would be a So I don't know how else 1091 00:57:57,440 --> 00:58:00,280 Speaker 1: I would have said that. I guess because trained to think, 1092 00:58:02,680 --> 00:58:05,280 Speaker 1: because I didn't say trans man like, so explain to 1093 00:58:05,400 --> 00:58:07,440 Speaker 1: us what what is offensive and what is not. So 1094 00:58:08,000 --> 00:58:12,000 Speaker 1: I feel like there's certain things that are definitely perception based, right, 1095 00:58:12,960 --> 00:58:15,120 Speaker 1: and for you to say, sorry, what was it you said? 1096 00:58:15,440 --> 00:58:17,680 Speaker 1: Tans we're having a transgender on the show. If you 1097 00:58:17,720 --> 00:58:20,880 Speaker 1: have any questions in regard to this police sentiment pretty 1098 00:58:20,960 --> 00:58:25,320 Speaker 1: much so I don't. I don't know. There's a lot 1099 00:58:25,320 --> 00:58:28,600 Speaker 1: of people that probably would say that's derogatory. Um. I 1100 00:58:28,680 --> 00:58:31,840 Speaker 1: feel like for someone that probably hasn't been made aware 1101 00:58:32,000 --> 00:58:34,800 Speaker 1: of some of the slurs, I guess I wouldn't take 1102 00:58:34,800 --> 00:58:38,120 Speaker 1: defense to that. Perhaps some folks would, And as I said, 1103 00:58:38,120 --> 00:58:40,800 Speaker 1: that's perception, right, that's certain things that people are susceptible 1104 00:58:40,800 --> 00:58:42,960 Speaker 1: to and a certain things that people aren't. For me personally, 1105 00:58:43,000 --> 00:58:45,960 Speaker 1: I wouldn't. I personally wouldn't take defense to that. If 1106 00:58:46,000 --> 00:58:49,040 Speaker 1: you said tranny, which you know certain of my cast 1107 00:58:49,080 --> 00:58:51,320 Speaker 1: members have said, I had to holder at them like 1108 00:58:52,160 --> 00:58:53,800 Speaker 1: and be like, yo, you gotta take off your off 1109 00:58:53,840 --> 00:58:55,520 Speaker 1: your Instagram and all that kind of stuff, because that's 1110 00:58:55,520 --> 00:58:59,520 Speaker 1: throwing like okay, so training and trainese derrovaty term.

I 1126 00:59:43,520 --> 00:59:45,360 Speaker 1: like to speak on what I'm aware of rather than 1127 00:59:45,440 --> 00:59:48,120 Speaker 1: gisson because I don't want to be the person that 1128 00:59:48,720 --> 00:59:53,880 Speaker 1: um somewhat represents the community and doesn't even know understand 1129 00:59:54,000 --> 00:59:56,160 Speaker 1: right And you know, you're you're all gonna be comfortable 1130 00:59:56,200 --> 00:59:59,120 Speaker 1: different things. The person that heard it thought a transgender 1131 00:59:59,200 --> 01:00:01,760 Speaker 1: wasn't good enough. You are understanding enough to say, okay, 1132 01:00:01,800 --> 01:00:04,600 Speaker 1: well she doesn't know right, and and that's kind of 1133 01:00:04,800 --> 01:00:07,000 Speaker 1: what I said. And I just like, even to me, like, 1134 01:00:07,120 --> 01:00:09,240 Speaker 1: I don't know the whole I had a conversation with 1135 01:00:09,360 --> 01:00:12,760 Speaker 1: my friend about the the stud the dyke, the things 1136 01:00:12,840 --> 01:00:14,920 Speaker 1: that we can say stud but we can't say dyke. 1137 01:00:15,280 --> 01:00:18,480 Speaker 1: We could say transgender, but we can't say training. We 1138 01:00:18,560 --> 01:00:20,800 Speaker 1: can and it's just like, I don't know all this 1139 01:00:20,880 --> 01:00:25,680 Speaker 1: guy damned politically correct now like um, in the UK 1140 01:00:26,080 --> 01:00:28,200 Speaker 1: people use that word, and is it I'm not gonna lie. 1141 01:00:28,360 --> 01:00:31,680 Speaker 1: The only time that's used this towards white women, really 1142 01:00:32,640 --> 01:00:35,680 Speaker 1: it's not. It's not used in the black in the 1143 01:00:35,720 --> 01:00:39,680 Speaker 1: black LGBTQ community because we say stud I mean, but 1144 01:00:39,800 --> 01:00:44,800 Speaker 1: here I heard. I couldn't get it off. Okay, Okay, 1145 01:00:44,880 --> 01:00:47,040 Speaker 1: So I think it's just I guess it's how people 1146 01:00:48,200 --> 01:00:50,760 Speaker 1: receive it as to if it's going to be offensive 1147 01:00:50,880 --> 01:00:53,640 Speaker 1: or not, except for the word of course, training. Okay. 1148 01:00:53,880 --> 01:00:55,480 Speaker 1: So I guess that's good for our listeners to know. 1149 01:00:55,680 --> 01:01:00,080 Speaker 1: And I haven't heard that word, and I'm like, okay it. 1150 01:01:00,520 --> 01:01:03,120 Speaker 1: I think I'm somebody go off of me about that. 1151 01:01:04,360 --> 01:01:06,080 Speaker 1: I've got a lot of learning to do myself, because, 1152 01:01:06,080 --> 01:01:07,600 Speaker 1: as I said, I feel like I said off air, 1153 01:01:07,640 --> 01:01:10,160 Speaker 1: I didn't identify with with I didn't want to be 1154 01:01:10,200 --> 01:01:12,440 Speaker 1: put in yet another books. I didn't. I didn't for 1155 01:01:12,480 --> 01:01:14,240 Speaker 1: a long time. I didn't want to identify as a 1156 01:01:14,320 --> 01:01:17,040 Speaker 1: transmil right. And we talk about labels here. A lot 1157 01:01:18,400 --> 01:01:21,760 Speaker 1: felt guilty when you were saying it because I want 1158 01:01:21,800 --> 01:01:24,720 Speaker 1: you on so badly because I want people to get it. 1159 01:01:25,400 --> 01:01:27,280 Speaker 1: I want people to understand it. And most of our 1160 01:01:27,320 --> 01:01:29,920 Speaker 1: listeners are male, which is why this is very important 1161 01:01:29,960 --> 01:01:32,320 Speaker 1: to me, because I feel like women are going to 1162 01:01:32,400 --> 01:01:34,160 Speaker 1: be like, oh yeah, I understand it, but men don't, 1163 01:01:34,200 --> 01:01:36,080 Speaker 1: and I just want them to. But it's also you know, 1164 01:01:36,200 --> 01:01:37,640 Speaker 1: you just said to me like, I don't need to 1165 01:01:37,680 --> 01:01:41,280 Speaker 1: tell someone I identify as a black straight male. I 1166 01:01:41,320 --> 01:01:43,560 Speaker 1: don't need a black straight man I don't know. But 1167 01:01:43,640 --> 01:01:45,120 Speaker 1: not only that, but then I do feel the guilt 1168 01:01:45,160 --> 01:01:46,600 Speaker 1: of asking you to do it because it makes you 1169 01:01:46,720 --> 01:01:48,840 Speaker 1: open this thing up. But not only that, I think 1170 01:01:48,920 --> 01:01:52,280 Speaker 1: even for our female listeners, they can literally sit here 1171 01:01:52,320 --> 01:01:54,560 Speaker 1: and think if I was put in this position, how 1172 01:01:54,600 --> 01:01:57,280 Speaker 1: would I respond? Um? And I think that's even good 1173 01:01:57,320 --> 01:01:59,120 Speaker 1: with how we talked about where you feel like you 1174 01:01:59,120 --> 01:02:03,160 Speaker 1: should announce um your gender identity as far as dating UM. 1175 01:02:03,280 --> 01:02:06,080 Speaker 1: So for different women, like for me, it might not 1176 01:02:06,240 --> 01:02:08,440 Speaker 1: bother me. I like pussy, I do strap on. It's 1177 01:02:08,480 --> 01:02:11,360 Speaker 1: all cool. But for the listeners who maybe identify as 1178 01:02:11,440 --> 01:02:14,520 Speaker 1: straight straight straight straight straight, just for them to be 1179 01:02:14,640 --> 01:02:17,439 Speaker 1: able to listen to this episode and think, how would 1180 01:02:17,440 --> 01:02:19,760 Speaker 1: I respond if I was put into this, you know, 1181 01:02:20,360 --> 01:02:23,760 Speaker 1: into a day where where it's true, it's private, sacred. 1182 01:02:23,960 --> 01:02:24,960 Speaker 1: At the end of the day, there's a lot of 1183 01:02:25,040 --> 01:02:27,320 Speaker 1: things in life that we are not going to be 1184 01:02:27,400 --> 01:02:31,560 Speaker 1: able to understand. Right, that's just impossible, And I get that. 1185 01:02:31,760 --> 01:02:34,240 Speaker 1: But at the same time, like there's this common denominat 1186 01:02:34,240 --> 01:02:37,800 Speaker 1: I believe between all humans which kind of um allows 1187 01:02:37,920 --> 01:02:41,160 Speaker 1: us to to feel able and liberate and expressing ourselves, 1188 01:02:41,200 --> 01:02:44,400 Speaker 1: which is just room for respect. And and at the 1189 01:02:44,480 --> 01:02:46,960 Speaker 1: end of the day, you're not understanding your person's decisions 1190 01:02:47,040 --> 01:02:49,480 Speaker 1: or choices in life, is okay as long as you 1191 01:02:49,520 --> 01:02:52,200 Speaker 1: can still respect that person for living their authentic life 1192 01:02:52,280 --> 01:02:55,960 Speaker 1: and and and being the authentic self. UM. I don't 1193 01:02:55,960 --> 01:02:58,680 Speaker 1: feel like any trans person or person that identifies as 1194 01:02:58,760 --> 01:03:02,160 Speaker 1: trans is anyone anything in terms of an explanation as 1195 01:03:02,200 --> 01:03:05,280 Speaker 1: to why they're transitioning. Um, But I do feel like 1196 01:03:05,360 --> 01:03:08,560 Speaker 1: it is important to have these kinds of conversations because 1197 01:03:10,040 --> 01:03:14,280 Speaker 1: people that have identified as transgender, non binary, queer, it's 1198 01:03:14,320 --> 01:03:16,600 Speaker 1: not a new wave. It's not this new thing that's 1199 01:03:16,680 --> 01:03:24,240 Speaker 1: just happening like, oh my god tomorrow. It's not it's 1200 01:03:24,280 --> 01:03:27,680 Speaker 1: all bullshit. Like my grandfather was trans. I was born 1201 01:03:27,720 --> 01:03:29,240 Speaker 1: in San France, a lot of people don't know that. 1202 01:03:29,440 --> 01:03:32,800 Speaker 1: My mom she passed. But yeah, you know what I mean. 1203 01:03:32,880 --> 01:03:35,959 Speaker 1: In San Francisco gay and LGBT community is so open 1204 01:03:36,760 --> 01:03:39,520 Speaker 1: and uh, maybe that's why I'm so used to it. 1205 01:03:39,800 --> 01:03:42,920 Speaker 1: But I mean I knew that in history. It's documented 1206 01:03:43,120 --> 01:03:48,080 Speaker 1: in ancient history, kings and queens in Egypt identified as 1207 01:03:48,240 --> 01:03:50,600 Speaker 1: trans and non binary, you know what I'm saying. So 1208 01:03:50,800 --> 01:03:53,680 Speaker 1: that's what I mean. This is not new. It's just that, um, 1209 01:03:54,360 --> 01:03:56,960 Speaker 1: I feel like we're talking about it. We're more some 1210 01:03:57,120 --> 01:04:00,600 Speaker 1: of us are more open with with education in others. 1211 01:04:01,160 --> 01:04:05,160 Speaker 1: Um and there is more resources available to educate others. 1212 01:04:05,640 --> 01:04:09,640 Speaker 1: Um And I feel like media and technology plays a 1213 01:04:09,680 --> 01:04:12,440 Speaker 1: big part in that and bringing that to the forefront. UM. 1214 01:04:13,080 --> 01:04:16,520 Speaker 1: But that's needless to say that, Like this isn't something new, 1215 01:04:16,880 --> 01:04:18,320 Speaker 1: you know what I mean? Like people are like, oh 1216 01:04:18,400 --> 01:04:24,439 Speaker 1: my god, the world's gonna end all these transgender people 1217 01:04:24,480 --> 01:04:28,000 Speaker 1: pack out what they wanted. That's too much. Yea and 1218 01:04:29,000 --> 01:04:31,479 Speaker 1: n that's a great headline the other day that said 1219 01:04:32,120 --> 01:04:35,760 Speaker 1: where are these imaginary rapists coming from? That people keep saying, 1220 01:04:36,000 --> 01:04:41,160 Speaker 1: there's always I don't like what because the bathroom argument 1221 01:04:42,680 --> 01:04:44,440 Speaker 1: is that somebody's going to go in there and rape 1222 01:04:44,480 --> 01:04:47,200 Speaker 1: and rape you. Yeah, it's just like if someone wants 1223 01:04:47,200 --> 01:04:53,480 Speaker 1: to go in the bathroom emery are in fact, I 1224 01:04:53,560 --> 01:04:57,560 Speaker 1: think that's it's that that's really really stupid because at 1225 01:04:57,560 --> 01:04:59,439 Speaker 1: the end of the day, you've got, as I said, 1226 01:04:59,520 --> 01:05:05,080 Speaker 1: I brought up briefly, there are transgender folks being murdered weekly. 1227 01:05:05,760 --> 01:05:09,320 Speaker 1: We are. There's twenty five today that have been murdered 1228 01:05:09,400 --> 01:05:12,880 Speaker 1: this year alone, predominantly of color and predominantly trans women. 1229 01:05:13,480 --> 01:05:17,120 Speaker 1: And if we're not going to create safe spaces, what 1230 01:05:17,320 --> 01:05:20,640 Speaker 1: we're doing is basically accepting the fact that these women 1231 01:05:20,760 --> 01:05:23,400 Speaker 1: and men that identify as trands are being murdered. And 1232 01:05:23,480 --> 01:05:26,200 Speaker 1: that's okay. We ask you before we go. I watched 1233 01:05:26,280 --> 01:05:28,520 Speaker 1: Boys Don't Cry. Oh my mom made me watch that 1234 01:05:28,600 --> 01:05:32,080 Speaker 1: from a young age. She did my mom, You know what, 1235 01:05:32,320 --> 01:05:34,360 Speaker 1: Me and mamma were good friends. Now like like she's 1236 01:05:34,400 --> 01:05:36,160 Speaker 1: not my best friend. She wants you to watch it 1237 01:05:36,280 --> 01:05:39,880 Speaker 1: for you to feel better, or she wanted for me 1238 01:05:39,960 --> 01:05:42,720 Speaker 1: to be scared. Do you remember Boys Don't Cry? We're 1239 01:05:42,760 --> 01:05:46,480 Speaker 1: on a writer or no um where she was I 1240 01:05:46,560 --> 01:05:51,840 Speaker 1: don't know what No No from the Hands and Stranger thing. 1241 01:05:51,920 --> 01:05:54,440 Speaker 1: It is an amazing movie, but basically she's living as 1242 01:05:54,480 --> 01:05:56,040 Speaker 1: a man. I haven't seen it in some years. But 1243 01:05:56,200 --> 01:05:59,120 Speaker 1: gets a girlfriend. The girl's cool with it, she felt 1244 01:05:59,200 --> 01:06:01,680 Speaker 1: it new, didn't give a fuck. Um, but she hung 1245 01:06:01,680 --> 01:06:05,440 Speaker 1: out with some guys. Huh. That was Hillary splaining that 1246 01:06:05,480 --> 01:06:13,440 Speaker 1: more no a right, all right, Oh I movies, Well 1247 01:06:13,480 --> 01:06:19,600 Speaker 1: you incorrectly ship. I didn't know I from that movie. Um, 1248 01:06:19,640 --> 01:06:21,120 Speaker 1: I just watched Stranger Thing. It was probably my se 1249 01:06:21,360 --> 01:06:23,480 Speaker 1: no no, but anyway, she was hanging out with some 1250 01:06:23,560 --> 01:06:25,440 Speaker 1: men and when they found out, I don't remember if 1251 01:06:25,440 --> 01:06:28,919 Speaker 1: they beat her up and raped her and killed him. Yeah. 1252 01:06:29,600 --> 01:06:31,720 Speaker 1: It was a scary as place to be, but it 1253 01:06:31,800 --> 01:06:33,760 Speaker 1: taught you so much. And I remember watching it with 1254 01:06:33,880 --> 01:06:35,280 Speaker 1: my mom and she was like, if you ever have 1255 01:06:35,440 --> 01:06:37,800 Speaker 1: friends that are scared to come out and blah blah blah, 1256 01:06:37,800 --> 01:06:39,080 Speaker 1: you should make sure they have someone to talk to 1257 01:06:39,200 --> 01:06:41,200 Speaker 1: and be safe. I wish my mom did. I'm just 1258 01:06:41,360 --> 01:06:43,280 Speaker 1: my mom did it as a scared tactic. I think 1259 01:06:43,360 --> 01:06:47,440 Speaker 1: that she saw that I was, you know, constantly. For her, 1260 01:06:47,520 --> 01:06:49,920 Speaker 1: it was like, oh, I'm constantly wearing boys clothes or 1261 01:06:50,040 --> 01:06:52,960 Speaker 1: masculine clothes. And for her it's just like and and 1262 01:06:53,160 --> 01:06:55,440 Speaker 1: And It's funny because fast forward a little bit and 1263 01:06:55,480 --> 01:06:56,880 Speaker 1: I'll come back to the first forward a little bit 1264 01:06:57,080 --> 01:06:58,800 Speaker 1: um when I was in my teens and I was, 1265 01:06:58,960 --> 01:07:01,600 Speaker 1: you know, dating females and they didn't know, and then 1266 01:07:01,680 --> 01:07:04,400 Speaker 1: they found out. My mom too found out. And when 1267 01:07:04,480 --> 01:07:06,320 Speaker 1: my mom found out, she was like, say, these little 1268 01:07:06,360 --> 01:07:09,560 Speaker 1: girls brothers and cousins, and dad wants to come and 1269 01:07:09,720 --> 01:07:12,120 Speaker 1: do what what happened? And boys don't cry? And she 1270 01:07:12,360 --> 01:07:15,280 Speaker 1: was very fearful of my s. She was, she was, 1271 01:07:15,440 --> 01:07:19,000 Speaker 1: she she still was scared. Watched and I'm a grown 1272 01:07:19,080 --> 01:07:20,760 Speaker 1: man now and I can you know, I mean, I'm good, 1273 01:07:21,040 --> 01:07:28,760 Speaker 1: but in terms of like I don't fear yeah, but 1274 01:07:29,200 --> 01:07:31,680 Speaker 1: my mom was really like after I watched, and she's like, 1275 01:07:31,720 --> 01:07:33,280 Speaker 1: you know, she she sent me a voice, no, I 1276 01:07:33,520 --> 01:07:38,360 Speaker 1: I should play, and she's like, let me see a please. 1277 01:07:38,400 --> 01:07:39,800 Speaker 1: That would be I would love to know that, because 1278 01:07:39,840 --> 01:07:41,440 Speaker 1: just looking at you, I wonder if your mom is like, 1279 01:07:41,440 --> 01:07:43,400 Speaker 1: oh my god, he is so handsome and he's got 1280 01:07:43,680 --> 01:07:46,320 Speaker 1: he's kind of me and MO. Mom didn't have a 1281 01:07:46,320 --> 01:07:50,200 Speaker 1: good relationship up. It was strange, said, we do know 1282 01:07:50,360 --> 01:07:52,080 Speaker 1: we didn't growing up, We didn't have a good good 1283 01:07:52,120 --> 01:07:55,520 Speaker 1: relationship because I was trying to find myself. She was 1284 01:07:55,680 --> 01:07:59,160 Speaker 1: obviously hoping that she would have a relationship with her daughter. UM, 1285 01:07:59,440 --> 01:08:01,320 Speaker 1: and that never came, you know, I mean that never 1286 01:08:01,400 --> 01:08:03,720 Speaker 1: came to fruition. And for a long time we we 1287 01:08:03,800 --> 01:08:06,480 Speaker 1: didn't have a good relationship. And I remember when when 1288 01:08:06,520 --> 01:08:08,120 Speaker 1: you know, she started coming to me, coming with me 1289 01:08:08,160 --> 01:08:11,440 Speaker 1: to appointments and starting to learn about, you know, what 1290 01:08:11,600 --> 01:08:13,840 Speaker 1: it is that I'm going through. Um. She was like, 1291 01:08:13,920 --> 01:08:15,440 Speaker 1: I just hope that I have a better relationship with 1292 01:08:15,480 --> 01:08:17,280 Speaker 1: my son than I did with my door, you know. 1293 01:08:17,439 --> 01:08:19,800 Speaker 1: And I was like, Yeah, that's exactly what I needed 1294 01:08:19,840 --> 01:08:22,000 Speaker 1: to hear kind of thing. That's exactly what I want, 1295 01:08:22,080 --> 01:08:23,560 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. And that's exactly what we have. 1296 01:08:23,680 --> 01:08:26,360 Speaker 1: We have a great relationship. And it's like finding myself 1297 01:08:26,720 --> 01:08:30,639 Speaker 1: was the first step to me loving myself, and prior 1298 01:08:30,720 --> 01:08:33,280 Speaker 1: to that, I didn't love myself. And in turn, it 1299 01:08:33,400 --> 01:08:35,840 Speaker 1: meant that my relationships with everyone and anyone around me 1300 01:08:36,000 --> 01:08:39,120 Speaker 1: was strained due to that. I'm scrolling through my phone 1301 01:08:39,160 --> 01:08:42,280 Speaker 1: trying to find um this um she she sent me 1302 01:08:42,360 --> 01:08:45,000 Speaker 1: so many.

Sorry, Russia's wife. All right, 1316 01:09:28,360 --> 01:09:30,040 Speaker 1: so this is what my mom said because she's still 1317 01:09:30,680 --> 01:09:34,240 Speaker 1: very much so fearful for my safety. Okay, yeah, I 1318 01:09:34,280 --> 01:09:37,600 Speaker 1: want to hear this. It's quite hold it up to 1319 01:09:37,680 --> 01:09:47,960 Speaker 1: the mike. I don't even know, like making new friends, 1320 01:09:48,120 --> 01:09:52,519 Speaker 1: meeting new people, just nine you know who who you really? 1321 01:09:53,360 --> 01:09:58,000 Speaker 1: You know, you know me? You know, stuff like that. Okay. 1322 01:09:58,880 --> 01:10:00,720 Speaker 1: In other ways, what she would saying in is after 1323 01:10:00,800 --> 01:10:02,639 Speaker 1: being on backchat, she's sure that a lot of people 1324 01:10:02,680 --> 01:10:04,599 Speaker 1: are going to be reaching out. It sounds very supportive. 1325 01:10:06,200 --> 01:10:09,200 Speaker 1: It still doesn't know how to word it exactly. You 1326 01:10:09,240 --> 01:10:13,960 Speaker 1: could definitely hear the kind of caution. Yeah, but my mom, 1327 01:10:14,040 --> 01:10:15,640 Speaker 1: she is cautious because what she's trying to say is 1328 01:10:15,680 --> 01:10:17,840 Speaker 1: basically just be aware of like who's reaching out to 1329 01:10:17,880 --> 01:10:21,280 Speaker 1: you in terms of one wanting to befriend you because 1330 01:10:21,439 --> 01:10:23,439 Speaker 1: of the ship like that. Again, a lot of trans 1331 01:10:23,520 --> 01:10:26,599 Speaker 1: folks are murdered. Yeah, she's quite fearful of the fact 1332 01:10:26,640 --> 01:10:30,200 Speaker 1: that being in the States where you know, coming out here, 1333 01:10:32,240 --> 01:10:35,400 Speaker 1: she's quite fearful of who who may seem as though 1334 01:10:35,439 --> 01:10:38,760 Speaker 1: they have good, good intentions about going to meet them, 1335 01:10:38,880 --> 01:10:41,760 Speaker 1: that may not be the case.
