[Guest brandt]

hey everyone,

theres a pretty wide community of ftm's on youtube. and im sure many mtfs. theres a lot of updates and transition videos and blogs.

just to invite you guys to come see my videos on youtube. i'll be updating every other week or every 2 weeks depending on how much i have time. i have 3 vlogs right now and ill be making one after christmas and before new years. just search sk8terb01. so hopefully you guys could check it out and check out all the other people in the trans community.

thanks,

brandt/kayden

Awesome!

I'mma go do that whenever I have some free time.

It'll be great to see fellow transmen, transwomen and transpeople, although putting up with dumb comments is unfortunate.

[Guest brandt]

oh cool yea you should. that would be awesome. but yeah ppl commenting on it would be a handfull.

[Guest Michelle M]

I'll be sure to check out your videos, and I must say, you're very brave for doing it. Youtube is so public... and I prefer my privacy. I'm really sensitive, so I don't think I could endure the bad comments if I did something like Youtube or Myspace.

Youtube is way cool... One thing that is sad though is, getting to know peeps by their V-logs and after you watch their growth and progression, they sometimes disappear leaving you wondering if they are ok, or just went on to other things.

As far as some of the mean comments people receive, wouldn't they just serve to help the V-loger prepare for the real world? humanity displays both infinite wisdom, and infinite stupidity...

thnx michelle. but you know it didnt come to mind that i would be shown off through out the whole world if ppl saw. but yeah it didnt even come to me that i would be all nervous and afraid of what people might think. i just thought it would be cool just to do it. and plus i have my times when i dont have a life haha.

yea it sux when ppl finally start transitioning and you see how far they have gone and they just suddenly disappear. like this one dude. he was on his 26 weeks video and he just disaapeared. but i supposed he is taking the rest from his chest surgery or he probably just doesnt have time for that any more. so yeah its pretty sad. but then you find new ppl starting their transition and its cool.

as for comments. i havent gotten any of those yet. but if i do im sure ill be ready. because all it is is people that dont know anything or they are just stupid and its just over some lame computer that they cant do anything else but say bad things. i've seen mean comments to those who have been on youtube longer and have more subscriptions and to those that get em sometimes reply to them and it gets ugly. so i go with what bethany says.

[Guest silverpetals]

put "transsexual" in the title and you'll get like a million more hits.

sad that, isn't it?

anyway, that sounds awesome kayden, i'll watch them when i have the time

There are some really nice FtMs and MtFs on YouTube. At the same time, there are some pretty harsh ones who have a little too much anger in them. Not only do they attack everybody in their videos, but then also attack those that reply with a comment.

(I'm thinking of a certain individual, but naming her would probably be against the rules or something. So if you're curious as to who to avoid, let me know.)

I wanna do some YouTube stuff! I just don't have a camera. XD

Brandt, I watched your videos finally. You are such a cutey boy! I like your voice and love your hair. It's very inspirational to me that you're so young, but you're so mature and know what you want from life. I wasn't anywhere near as intelligent at 15, I was lost and broken, and I guess I didn't really grow up until I was past 20. It led me to watch other videos too. I like karmatic1110 and etherealkingdom. And yes, there are bad comments, but it's not nearly as bad as I thought. I like how the authors are tough and ask the bad commenters what they're even doing viewing transsexual material if they aren't curious about themselves and just hiding it. It makes me want to do vlogs of my own...maybe someday.

[Guest o0tg0o]

Hehe, I have an idea for a short film where I'm going to take advantage of the fact I'm going to transition X-D. (A friend suggested and I just figured, might as well right?)I just need to get myself enough courage to come out to few of my filmmaker friends. ^^ I might upload a trailer one day on the tube once it gets rolling.

Yeah, on youtube, I was pleasantly suprised to see not much bad comments...and if there are, everybody else just bashes the not a very nice person who bashed the transgirl/boy. Supportive people are great. X-D

[Guest AlexJ]

Brandt, you are the cutest boy ever

Hell, if I was a girl I'd fancy you lol

[Guest buzz]

Cool i been on youtube a year or more now and been on T 4 months i do updates once a month i also watch alot of video's yeah you do get bad comments but i just deleted them block the user from seeing or commenting on my video's and ignore what they put they do try to say upsetting things but it washes over me now.

But 99% or comments are nice or question comments so all is cool
