  • i'm not gay, but i clicked this anyways because i love tim gunn XD

  • To admit that you tried to take your own life takes guts, to do it in the glare of the public eye as a recognised celebrity figure takes even more guts. What a fantastic message of hope.

  • Thank you Tim, you're so eloquent and gracious. 

  • Aw, I never thought he was this nice of a guy... Cool.

  • I always found Tim Gunn annoying...but this was a good message to people that often have a hard time in the world. Respect.

  • LOL Liam Kyle Sullivan brought me here =)

  • Thank you!!!!

  • I agree with Tim except for one detail: SOME people CAN do it alone, some can't. it depends on the person, the nature of the problem, etc.

    Think of it this way: if so many people have made it through those hard times, YOU can TOO. There's nothing so defective about you that you can't do what millions have done so far. If you need to get away, temporarily or permanently, even moving to another city, then honor your needs. but don't get into trouble, as they say. Contact gay organizations.

  • thank you Tim Gunn. I never attempted....but I remember being depressed enough. I pulled through. And IT DOES GET BETTER.

  • I love his tie. <3

    Thank you, Tim. You rock.

  • @NuzratHussain I'm female. Wow u sure know know everything a man needs to know how to give a man anal pleasure. Good luck with that. Hope your partner/boyfriend keeps enjoying it :)

  • Respect.

  • Thanks Tim Gunn. Suicide attempts left me feeling isolated for other reasons than sexuality. But your disclosure is so important. You are so handsome and dignified and genuine. Kids need a role model with a not so perfect past to emulate. I love you.

  • @NuzratHussein

    Another straight(?) male obsessed with gay sex commenting beneath a vid about human rights.

    Flaunting personal disgust is a popular tactic among those seeking support not only from their religion, but from others who like to flaunt their personal disgust en masse. And it's as irrelevant as me providing in great detail why heterosex disgusts me, or, for that matter, cauliflower.

    You've got nothing to present but your own ugliness, which you're actually proud of. Yawn.

  • What an amazing human being, to share such a personal experience to reach out to people who are now in the same position. I didn't think I could possibly adore Tim Gunn any more than I already had, but now I admire him even more so. <3

  • Thank goodness TG got the help he needed as a 17-year-old! The world would be less sunny without him in it! It DOES get better!

  • i love tim. he makes my day every time i watch him on project runway and i can't believe he tried committing suicide, that just breaks my heart.

  • It is sad to read the comments on this video of this gracious, warm, lovely man. I don't know all the answers, but I will say this. I'm a born-again Christian. I read my Bible every day. It IS against homosexuality...and lying and selfishness and bigotry and indifference to suffering and laziness and ignoring God. Jesus said the greatest commandments were to love God and love your neighbor as you love yourself. We're not all a-holes. Bless you, Tim Gunn.

  • This had me crying :')

  • Fag.  Pussy. Bitch.

  • youre probably the last person on earth to hear - the guy who uses the fag word is secretly scared shitless that he's gay. Always. nice to have you in the club Mary.

  • @Vegeta681 Congratulations, your a terrible person.

  • Tim Gunn is a truly dignified and caring person. He deserves enormous respect and I'm really grateful that he survived that traumatic experience.

  • Comment removed

  • I LOVE U TIM

  • What a loving message Tim . . .thank you!

  • @lawnboyinthehood1980 what the hell is your problem? I am a christian, am open about my faith, and I also openly accept gays. it doesnt have to be one or the other.

  • Keep love alive!

  • I just finished the Mixed Media article in Mother Jones magazine. Excellent!!!

  • @lawnboyinthehood1980 Do u need a hug? Sounds like it ... so sorry your parents didn't love u enough to teach u any manners but bless you - you sour cunt!

  • @skatergeek19811 dont be mad at me because yo're a faggot!

  • @lawnboyinthehood1980 LOL ... u poor dickless loser

  • @skatergeek19811 nice comeback faggot, now get back to doing what you do best (taking it up the ass) faggot

  • @lawnboyinthehood1980 Aaargh, that's so sweet for you to think of me BUT are you actually only thinking of yourself again? Talk about a closet case! Still, baby we can even humour those who can't even tolerate themselves. Ever asked yourself WHY u insist on gettting closer and closer to us "HOMOSEXUALS" -> it's because you're one! Now go out and find some self-love!

  • @skatergeek19811 Dude you have problems and you need to see a Dr. about helping you not be gay. Gay people have a sickness that needs medical treatment.

  • @lawnboyinthehood1980

    skatergeek19811 is fine, I'm sure. You on the other hand would be wise to remember the principle that the country you live in has been founded on: freedom.

    And what does freedom include if you want to be serious about it? That's right, freedom of sexual orientation. It's easy: live and let live, be respectful and tolerant and grant other people the freedom that you also enjoy. Okay?

  • @lawnboyinthehood1980 (faggot) thats a new word. Great come back.

  • Aww he's so cute. He makes it work!

  • thank you Tim for being the well dressed, elegant, washingtonian that you are...love the art screen. love the uplifting message. love your work....someone has to keep civilization going......and thank you for being supportive of the teens. be well and keep helping us all to look great.

  • LOVE tim gunn.

  • I used to gay,,, until I got excessive butthurt....

  • i could never imagine a world without tim gunn! i live by make it work! i love you tim <3

  • ah 4me it gets worse  ...

  • aww, that was beautiful.

  • i like his right eye brow...it just seems to say: Oh really? I'm not impressed. lol

  • You homophobes piss me off! How can you say something so cruel about another human being? You low life's, grow up and move on with your life.

  • @BeyondBirthday240 I don't like gay people because they should get a sex change if they like the same sex...it's creepy and unnatural. Also, they flirt with me, and I fucking hate them for it. It's disgusting.

  • @Cravingskies1 you know what your creepy and unnatural..... You see, I dont give a fuck if they flirt with you or not. Its still not a good reason to hate someone. Your the disgusting one! :p

  • @BeyondBirthday240 Lmao no. Just listen to his voice. It's annoying as fuck.

  • @Cravingskies1 Lmfao no! Its not as annoying as your personality is.

  • read the definition buddy... religion can fall victim to bigotry as well. it doesnt matter if its a choice or not, because its your choice to be discriminatory towards it. so yes you are a bigot. and i never said i hate homosexuals. i said i disagree with their beleifs, thats like saying because im a democrat i hate all republicans just because i have differant views, when i am voting republican this election year.

  • Why would people dislike this video? GO TIM GUNN.... We are saving lives!

  • I LOVE YOU TIM qAq PRECIOUS BABY<3

  • As I have stated on other posts, I am a straight man who wants to the let the Gay, Lesbian, Transgendered, Bi, community that I support you. I never know if it helps, but I want my voice heard for support in your community.I am in Portland, Oregon and we have a great community for supporting all lifestyles. I support you, my wife supports you, and my friends support you. Keep strong, and appreciate who you are.

  • This project has helped me....... SO much.... it honestly saved my life... this project, and the wonderful wonderful people in the ever fabulous GSA at my school. I'm forever grateful and indebted to them. :)

  • Tim Gunn is such a wonderful wonderful person!

  • Tim Gunn was always meant to be on this Earth, I'm so glad he's here during my time.

  • @Bexxx19 Very well said. I agree!

  • Comment removed

  • And questioning<3

  • Tim Gunn has many self hatred issues and the things he advocates don't "make it better" always for LGBT youth. Such as school uniforms that are gender rigid. He recently has been on a tear knocking Hillary Clinton for being "confused about her gender" saying she isn't feminine enough. Is he masculine? Also, he proudly proclaims he doesn't have sex and has not for over 30 years.

  • Holy crap. God loves everyone. Gay, straight, or otherwise. Does the bible say abomination, yes. Does it say he stops loving them, no.

    Until you find me the verse that says otherwise STFU, and get a hobby you bible thumping assholes.

  • @Singitlouder14 god, thank you! and even if it does say 'abomination'-- it's only because we interpreted this way! blech.!

  • <3 <3 <3 <3 <3

  • @CounterFaggotry why dont you go kill yourself then

  • @CounterFaggotry

    sick prick!!

  • I hate TIM GUNN but I support the charity. <3

  • Thank you for this. Thank you so much.

  • in short, MAKE IT WORK.

  • I respect Tim Gunn so much. He's just such an impressive person, and I never knew that he had ever been at such a point in his life as to attempt suicide. I'm so very glad that he failed and is with us now.

  • Go Tim Gunn! Each one of the "It Gets Better" videos can only help kids in despair see how important and loved they are.

  • Thumbs up if you wanna make out with Tim Gunn. Looks like I just thumbs downed myself!

  • this dude's real manly.the type of older gentleman you invite over to show you a couple of wrestling moves,while oiled up,over a coupla beers.then he gives your blonde hair a good tussle.all very straight and hetero though.no just kidding this faggot does definitely have the ninja though.

  • I have so much respect for Tim Gunn. The Trevor Project rocks, Tim Gunn is awesome and I thank you for putting this video up!

  • Just in case anyone is interested, not all Christians are bigots. Some of us took Sunday school to heart. Anyone who has actually read the bible knows to love their neighbours as themselves.

    Btw, there is never a reason for suicide, and hatred kills way more people than AIDS.

    Oh, and Tim Gunn rocks designer socks! :)

  • @tenshinokuragari

    It's very deceptive how you equate disagreement with homosexuality and bigotry.

    If you're such a Biblical scholar then you would know that God is love but, love is not God.

    Please don't make up lies about what the Bible teaches about sin. We are all sinners and we all need the remedy for it. Telling people that what's wrong is actually right, is no answer.

  • @imallpissedoff

    I said no such thing. :) Bigotry is the narrow-minded disagreement of a belief, creed, or opinion that differs from ones own. I didn't say that disagreeing with homosexuality is bigotry (of course, I don't know how you could "disagree" with something like that other than simply not practising it), but the "fags are going to Hell" mentality certainly is.

  • @imallpissedoff

    In any case, did Jesus not say that loving one another is the "first and greatest commandment"? Even if one believes that God condemns homosexuality, to express hatred toward those who are not in agreement is the greater sin.

    In the end, God will sort things out for Himself. It's not our job to determine which people are weeds and which are wheat. As Christians, we have been tasked with spreading the love of Christ. So can't we all just get along?

  • @tenshinokuragari Anyone who HAS read the Bible also know that is condemns homosexuality and calls for Christians to kill them.

    If you're going to just cherry pick the parts that make you happy, fine. Just don't ignore the rest of the Bible that isn't so warm and fuzzy.

  • @ciaochowbella Technically, it calls the Jews to kill them (yet all of my Jewish friends seem pretty mellow about people following their hearts), since Leviticus (the same book that condones slavery and condemns football) was written WAY before the start of Christianity.

    As a Christian, I live by the words of Christ (aka the new testament), and he made no such commandment. He simply asks that we love each other. THAT is what I intend to do. :)

  • @tenshinokuragari In Matthew 5:18, Jesus himself calls for his followers to keep and maintain the OT laws and change "not one jot or one tittle". Jesus didn't change ANYTHING and commanded his followers to obey the OT law.

    As I said, you can cherry pick the nice parts if you like, but you're just making your own religion then. You don't get to ignore the unpleasant parts because they make you uncomfortable as long as there are still people using them to harm others.

    Honesty, not hypocrisy.

  • @tenshinokuragari BTW, Jesus also said for you to abandon your family, sell all your things and give the proceeds to the poor and follow him. You're not to plan for tomorrow either. Do you have a job, life insurance, a bank account? All those things are SPECIFICALLY against the teachings of Jesus.

    Jesus told (not asked) his followers to do a LOT more than love each other. Read your Bible.

    I'm glad you've CHOSEN to be compassionate and loving, but it's only justified if you cherry pick.

  • @ciaochowbella The same to you. There are many things in the bible that are EQUALLY as condemened. Silly little things like not touching the skin of a dead swine (football) or not wearing clothing made from two different fabrics, women not wearing pants, etc. Unless you are willing to follow all of these "rules" then you don't have the right to pick out the parts that you want either.

  • @tenshinokuragari --Are Christians who oppose homosexuality bigots?

  • @Archangel866 no. im christian and i oppose it. but keep in mind that each sin is the same in Gods eye. this means even though i have found Jesus that i am still as filthy as everybody else. im no better than anybody. Only the power of and love of God can change us. and im not here saying hes evil blah blah blah. jesus said it himself. "let you who have not sinned cast the first stone... obviously im a sinner. plus i love this guy hes so nice, and talented.

  • @tquatMassEffect ur a bigot, and jesus is fake and gay

  • @mittROMNEY666 do you know what bigotry means? it means to be discriminatory. I'm not being discriminatory towards anybody. you however are being discriminatory towards Christians.. so you in fact are the bigot plus weather you believe jesus is your savior or not he did in fact exist. read the history books. oh and youre calling me a bigot for not agreeing with homosexuality yet you used the term "gay" to describe something you dont like on a page supporting questioning youths. way to go. i win

  • @tquatMassEffect you hate gay people. i hate christians. but only you are a bigot because christianity is a choice but being gay isnt. and jesus may or may not have been a real person, the evidence is inconclusive. but he definitely didnt perform miracles or come back from the dead. why do you believe that rubbish?

  • @mittROMNEY666 and you ask me why i believe the bible... well why do believe evolution... have you. have you ever witnessed it? is there any recorded history through out the existence of man kind of humans who have witnessed it? humans have existed for thousands of years... thats time enough for some kind of species to evolve, yet there is no recorded history to back the theory up, so therefor you are only relying on the word of others and not on fact.

  • @tquatMassEffect dna evidence, transitional fossils etc. there are mountains of evidence. evolution is fact. only braindead bible thumpers refuse to accept it. do you have ANY evidence for the supernatural claims of the bible?

  • @mittROMNEY666 look up the shroud of jesus. and the bible actually talks about and supports dinosaurs ect... so your little dna thing is only proving the bible right. they didnt evolve they died off. and scientists clain that evolution is possible over thousands of years... yet it has never been recorded.... so please try again. :)

  • @tquatMassEffect the shroud is a fake. evolution is proven. try stepping outside of your cave of religious delusion

  • @mittROMNEY666 and read the definition of bigotry... religion can fall victim to it as well. its discrimination. its a hatefull act towards others to whom you disagree with. it doesnt matter if its a choice or not for somebody to believe. bigotry is a choice to hate just because. youre a bigot because you choose to hate christians. i am simply disagreeing with homosexuals not hating them. youre the bigot. not me. and remember you used the word "gay" to describe something you hate...

  • @tquatMassEffect that would be like saying youre a bigot if you hate nazis just because you disagree with them and nazis dont hate jews they just think they should be incinerated. so basically you are a nazi and the reason I hate you is because of your nazi beliefs. hating someone because of their beliefs is perfectly justifiable.

  • @mittROMNEY666 ... so you are calling me a nazi because i dont agree with their beliefs? but you dont agree with my beliefs, infact you hate me for them... so you are calling yourself a nazi too?.. and you hate me for my nazi beliefs... so then you hate yourself for your nazi beliefs?... dude just give up really, youre embarrassing yourself.

  • @tquatMassEffect no ur a nazi because you hate gay people, like the nazis did. the nazis were christians. Im saying its ok to hate people based on their beliefs, if those beliefs are so bad that they justify the hatred. for instance : naziism, racism, sexism, and christianity.

  • @mittROMNEY666 oh and im a history major... so how about this. naziism was anti religious, and more of a political religion. it was not christianity... in fact hitler had a plan to do away with churches all together, jewish muslum and christian... so the core belief of naziism has nothing to do with christianity. :)

  • @tquatMassEffect im guessing you either go to a christian college or are failing your classes ... 95 % of germans were christian during the nazi time period, so even if the hierarchy was ambivalent towards christianity ( the reich signed pacts with vatican) your average nazi was a believing christian, a fact which only facilitated anti-semitism due to the continual preaching of jew hatred by christianity in europe for centuries.

  • @tenshinokuragari thank u need more ppl like u!

  • @tenshinokuragari "hatred kills way more people than aids." I LOVE love love that!

  • @tenshinokuragari We know that not all Christians are like that. We know most are kind and loving people. You don't need to tell us that. You need to tell that to the Christians who Are like that, because they have hijacked your religion and turned it into a hateful thing. Stop letting them get away with it, and stop letting them use YOUR religion as an excuse to hurt people. Because you know it's not okay. I'm not attacking you, I'm agreeing, I just think you have the wrong audience.

  • Thank you so much, Mr. Gunn. It's a tragedy that five young men had to lose their lives to ignite The Trevor Project, but I'm 33 now, and struggled with being gay in school, and thought about suicide then, but it is so wonderful that GLTB youths have the support that I didn't. It got better for me too.

  • Tim Gunn is my hero. I nearly cried when I watched this. His perseverance and success gives me such hope <3

  • @birdiaction Birdiaction, I was moved to tears when I read your reply. You SHOULD have hope! I'm not sure if you are in school, or struggling with making it through, but you should aalways hold on to hope. I have only recently been watching these videos, and my heart still aches each time I do. And if I didn't feel like it was so late in the game, I'd love to post a few of my own. It got better for me too. ^_^

  • @Wildfyre31 I am in school, and it gets hard sometimes, but I will be okay. It's hard for a lot of kids, I know. But I do believe it gets better. ^_^ Thank you for your sweet words <3

  • @birdiaction You're VERY welcome, birdiaction. It really does get better. I'm sure you already know about the Trevor Project website, but if you need to talk to me, you can always write to me here, or on my email address. autobot_livewire@yahoo.com

  • Homosexuality is perversion.

    Just sayin'.

  • love this guy

  • Im a straight guy, and gays are cool with me. Ignorance causes homophobia

  • @AdamR702 Nothing cracks me up like homophobia.

  • Maybe you should change your user name to inotdaman2+2=5.

  • John,

    You will soon be establishing your adult life, earning your own money, creating your own circle of friends, building your own family if you want one. Your dreams will come true and the universe will give you gifts you could never have dreamed of. People will love you, respect you, trust you, look up to you for leadership and give you their thanks for being there.

  • God loves little rainbows!

  • He's gorgeously intelligent, and powerfully accomplished.

    How can anyone not like or admire him, including himself?

  • The FLAG button should be a FAG button on these videos. XD XD

  • Tim Gunn is a member of an organganization (Peta) that protested in California when a Gay man with Aids got an animal part to save his life. He is also a hypocrite who eats meat. He advocates mandatory school uniforms and rigid grim gender roles for clothes. He states he never has sex. In short , he is no friend to LGBT youth.

  • @TheBitchinbabs What does participating in sex have to do with being anyone's "friend"? 

  • Lets see: he advocates gender rigid clothes and school uniforms. He looks like a funeral director circa 1954. Tim Gunn also states he never has sex. Not exactly a help to gay youth or a role model.

  • If all of the supporters of this video didn't argue back with the trolls, and instead LIKED all the supportive comments, than the trolls may find an alternative way to amuse themselves. A way that isn't at the expense of lgbt teens. You can't make the blind see, but you can ignore their dumb asses. ☮ SUPPORT LOVE ☮

  • @VeronicaIzzard

    You've got a twisted view of love, and you've chosen to be blind to it.

  • Thank Gawd for this fag... Gawsh.... just listening to him tickles my ass hairs... i think i'll go masturbate while thinking of boy ass now....

  • Homosexuality is wrong. Have the courage and decency to stand up and take a stand against homosexuality.

  • @STRUTTER777U Why is it wrong?

  • @STRUTTER777U homophobia is wrong, have the real courage to stand up against homophobia

  • @STRUTTER777U Herpaderp. You can keep bitching, we'll keep butt fucking.

  • @STRUTTER777U Ya know, people have been having gay sex since 30,000 B.C.E. So gay people have been around for roughly 32,000 years. The Christian Church has only been around for roughly 2,000 years. Hmm, wonder which is gonna outlast the other.

  • quick question:

    why do so many gays choose to talk in the same way?

  • @STRUTTER777U where did you find these quotes exactly?

  • we should attack those who hate on others. this is so ridiculous.

  • I love him, I love him.....he's such a wonderful man

  • !Tim Love you! :D

  • Why the he'll are all ofnthese peoplenon here spewing hate against people for? U don't likengays...don't watch videos about, by and for gays. U don't like gay marriage, don't gat married to someone of the same sex. Why cant u just let people live their lives. All people will be judged, on their heart, not their actions. It's no one on this planets place to judge another. Check ourselves...

  • Tim Gunn -- what a gentleman.

    And now I know he is a brave and caring gentleman.

  • amazing

  • As for the gay conversion therapy - been there - done that - and back again.  At some point, it's not fair to the people around you and to your Maker to pretend to have feelings for the opposite gender that you really don't have. It's all about repression and self-deception. Telling yourself you're cured when in your heart you're fighting your natural (albeit usual) feelings of love. How is God supposed to support that?

  • @buranfly jejeje!  Yo te creo <3

  • @buranfly

    Not homosexual "love".

  • @imallpissedoff says who? homosexual love (and equal rights) will win

  • @idaman12345

    Says me, about 97% of the population, nature, common sense, and above all, God.

  • @imallpissedoff a few problems with that

    1) 10% of the population is gay

    2) homosexuality is seen in nature

    3) homophobia is not common sense

    4) there is no god

  • @idaman12345

    1. Ok then, 90% of the population.

    2. Dumb animals mistakenly attempting to mate with their own sex is no justification for human perversion.

    3. Common sense is enough for even the dumbest among us humans to deduce why there are two sexes.

    4. All the evidence supports the existence of God.

  • @imallpissedoff not even 90% there are heterosexuals (like me) that support them

    youre just mad because no animals are homophobic, therefore homophobia is not notural

    there is no evidence to support that lie

  • @idaman12345

    I wasn't conceding the 97%, only assuming your number for the sake of argument, and you now reduce it even further? Geeze, give an inch they take a mile. I do agree, though, that our culture is getting more corrupt and degenerate at an increasing rate, and more people can't tell right from wrong but, that doesn't change what's right and wrong.

    I'm not mad, I'm just right.

    Either we evolved, or we were created. The evidence favors creation. If we evolved, nothing matters, anyway.

  • @imallpissedoff i never claimed that our culter was getting "more corrupt and degenerate at an increasing rate"

    you may not be mad, but you are not right

    what evidence supports creation?

  • @idaman12345

    I never said you said our culture is degenerating, I said that.

    I'm not mad because I'm right.

    How do you explain the existence of the universe, it's finely tuned laws and forces, and life?

  • @imallpissedoff i notice how you ignored my question

    so ill be the better man and answer your question

    big bang and evolution
