  • General question-

    Do you have to take T for the rest of your life, or is it just during the transition?

  • I love your hair. o_o

  • I fell pretty bad to admit this but thought you were a guy the whole time while I was watching all your videos it was not until naruto's bad idea that I realized this so I fell pretty bad admiting that sorry if I came off as ignorant or mean but I didnt know and it doesn't mater to me oh I did not mean that rood eather sorry but rock hard eather way

  • Interesting story: I have an FTM friend, and everyday he has to deal with people who don't use his preferred name (Caleb) and who refer to him the female pronouns. It really sucks and kind of makes me mad that people who should be his friends don't even support him in that. I can totally understand that it's different and some people might be uncomfortable, but it's still gotta be pretty annoying. We were on facebook (goddamn it, it's always facebook...) and this guy was being an ass and (Cont.)

  • (cont.) basically told Caleb he was stupid. He also said "at least I know you have to have a penis to be a man."

    Normally, I don't really like to get involved in fights, but that angered me to no extent. Being a man is NOT about what's on the outside. Hell, I have all the workings of a woman, but I'm more of a man than half of the little boys that I know. I wish I was in that class, Lucas. I bet your teacher would love me and my ideas about what it takes to be a man. ^^

  • Aren't the ear stretching earrings gonna interfere with cosplay?

  • Twinfools, u are an amazing person. Keep doing what your doing. But i also have a question... is Nova your girlfriend? i was just wondering. ^,~

  • i bet your pparents r trying just give them time good luck

  • stretching your ears is addictive ^^ i started thinking i would go to a 6 and im at a 2 and i wanna go bigger but for professional reasons atm im not ><

  • Next time you see that girl in your Masculinity course, tell her that in order to be a man you must be swift as the coursing river, with all the force of a great typhoon, with all the strength of a raging fire, and be mysterious as the dark side of the moon.

  • @KeraKobayashi lololol mulan?

  • your progress is amazing!

  • Thanks to your videos I was able to come out to my friends and subscribers about my sexuality and my decision to do transition I'm so happy that you put these videos up and your courage helped me pull through and tell people about myself! Thank you so much!! -3

  • I'm sort of surprised about Nova's family, I remember (quite a while ago) that she had a lot of problems originally telling them about your relationship. I'm glad they've gotten used to it. I'm sorry about your fami

  • Did your voice drop some more? Or were you just talking softly? Sounds lower -_-

  • Luv u for ur bravery

  • Can't wait to meet you on Banzaicon! 8D

  • so just a question. when you are at school, what bathroom do you go in since you have your girl parts on the bottom and you are considered a guy? glad you are accepted :D

  • Lucas. You are simply amazing. c: <3

  • oh i love you so much...that for insperations!

  • Comment removed

  • I wish you didn't have a girlfriend I would so date u I mean ur hot but I lik nova nd u guys make an amazing couple and r u guys ever going to get married

  • lucas? i thought you went by kai now. not that it really matters since i'll call you twin or twinfools either way...... sorry you're having so many problems, but no worries. things will get better eventually. ^^

  • I support you 100%

  • i know having your family's approval and support means a lot in the end of the day, i'm sure you'll get there twin

  • Smile and be happy!, dont let ppl judge you, true friends wont ever judge you!!!! SMILE AND BE HAPPY, UR AWESOME TWIN, LOVE YOU!!! :DDDDD

  • :O You reminds me of someone I can't remember who is in this video? o.o Anyway you're awesome :-) (y)

  • hiiiiiiiii twinnnnnnnnnn 

  • Twinfool always just be yourself. :) ur an awesome person!

  • Loved your vid. It made many good point. I just have a tip for you. If you decide to go bigger with you gauges be careful. 2's arnt that big but going from a 2 to a 0 is very big. If you dont put duck tape on your 2 gauges to slowly stretch your ear to a 0 it has a high chance of your ear lobe spliting. And them you would have to wait for them to heal. So I suggest that you dont go past a 2.

  • Love the vid but noo please dont stretch ypur ears XD pplleaassee. Btw about your gf family i really love how they were so chill with it all :3 must be nice

  • just <3

  • Wow, Twin, I'm so sorry that you felt that way with your family. It's a very uncomfortable feeling to be in that awkward position. But you know what? There will always ALWAYS be people who love you, support you, and accept you for who you really are. So no need to worry about it. I'm sure your family will come to understand fully eventually.

    By the way, I love your gages. They look really awesome on ya!!

    Keep smiling!! >w<

  • i didnt understand something q.q

  • Why do all of your college classes sound so interesting?

  • Okay, don't know if this is a good thing to say or not, but sometimes I just watch your videos and don't pay attention to a WORD you say because I just like the way your voice sounds... the mellow-ness of your voice is really nice. I can't stand it when my house is quiet, so I'll sometime have random videos playing to have background noise... do you have a good signing voice? I'm curious.

  • @OkamiGohan omg I just realized that this is so true! I love his voice!

  • I support you all the way! <3 I can definetly understand what your going through</3 But anyway. Just keep doing what your doing and dont let anyone or anything stop you :D

  • It's sad to go through that. you feel lonely. the only thing you understand your true friends. In spite of everything, ahead ! ,where we can

    We will support you! <3

  • I know you are going through a bizarre and rough time. But everything will turn out fine in the end. By the way, I love the videos that you make! They are so creative and funny!

  • I'm so glad you are getting more and more accepted by people. You are an amazing person and have so much to offer. It really has been a long way for you, but you have getting there step by step. Good job Twin!

  • I was going to post a really nice comment about I find you to be one of the most inspirational and powerful voices out there, and how awesome you are....

    ...But then you said Titan A.E. and I was like "Crap..now I really watch thaaat".

  • so quiet! please make it a bit louder next time :/

  • You're an amazing person, keep pushing foreward and things will get better :)

  • its must feel very akward to be right there while: o how's he doing?

    o she's doing fine.

  • I wish you luck with your parents!!! Im sorry it's been so rough, but i'm glad it's slowly getting better! Love ya n wish u luck!

  • Iloveyhuu so much Twin/Lucas :L good luck with you parents (: xx

  • Maybe you've said this before and I just don't remember, but what is your major, Lucas? Is is it something the Masculinity class goes towards, or is that just an elective?

  • im also stretching my ears by myself is easy and barelly painfull i change to a bigger tapper every 5 days and its a fast process

    btw you are a role model to me thamkyou for your videos

    it really helps

  • hi i been watching your videos for a while now since I saw ur cosplay ones, im still a bit confused on the whole thing, but i think it takes courage for what you did to become who you feel you are, sorry if im not saying this right its hard for me to say what i mean most of the time.

    Anyway lol um dont know what else to say really

  • Wait ! i dont get it ! Alright I've been watching your videos for about 4 or 5 months now and i keep hearing this ! Please someone explain to me!

  • dont skretch ur ears Dx

  • I think you've had a hard time the last couple of years, with your family and environment accepting your transformation, but I think you're really strong and you're dealing with it so well. And it's so sweet that your family and Nova's family are trying so hard so it will all be okay ^^ you deserve it, Lucas! Your parents will come along after a while as well, they're just the people who have known you the longest, so it's hard for them to adapt. But I'm glad you're doing so well!

  • you are doing the stretching correctly! people who do it too quick can be dangerous and damage your ears

  • Man, I love how he was just pretty chill, and all like "You need a penis to be a guy... uh... I don't have one." Haha, Lucas you are the best :)

  • Just have to say I love how you're stretching your ears <3

  • Ya I know how you feel my parents I don't beleve there even trying to call me Mike at all and they do support me when we meet new people and my whole family is also trying to get use to me being trans but i'm happy the at lest my cousen because she has a trans friend she's use to it. I happy that your family is doing well with you be a man now :D

    - Mike

  • Titan A.E.! Woo! ^_^

    Sorry to hear your parents is not truly supporting you in this. Even though I'm not going through the same thing with you, I know how it is to have at least one parent not support you in what you are doing. It sucks. XP It is nice, though, to hear your brother supporting you.

    Hope things get better between you and your parents.

  • your lil giggle so cute XD

  • You are so amazing! I would never be able to deal with a situation like that if I was in your shoes D: Oh and be careful with the stretchers! If you stretch too far then they will never heal completely if you don't like them. But i'm sure they will look amazing ;3

  • ugh, i got four shots last week, so just hearing the word shot sends shivers up my spine. i almost passed out, it was not fun. :(

  • The ears are looking cool :) Gotta say though too big and they usually creep me out nothing against people who do go big on stretching their ears though. Its just something that freaks me out a bit. xD Anyway I'm glad to hear your family is trying to adjust, that's a lot better than how some families react to a trans gendered person being in their family.

  • @korinakorinakorina Yeah, I get freaked out too. I think it's purely a physical reaction for me, because even though I find stretched ears unattractive in general, I don't really have anything against them as a concept. I just get dizzy looking at them. I guess it's my self-preservation instinct acting up? Like how most people would feel queasy watching surgeries and injuries and so on...

  • Inuyasha manga in the background

  • I'm glad everything is going well for you, Lucas! :D

    And I'm not sure if anyone has told you, but every 3 weeks is a bit too fast....I would recommend every two months to avoid tears.....

  • Yay Lucas! You're the best!

  • @demon6225 wouldn't call it a problem so much as frame of mind. But yes, it is on the inside.

  • so its a mental problem? im not saying she/he is retarded no not like that but as you said it has to deal with inside and not outside

  • Twin :) im glad you do have people who understand the situation and respect that you made the desicion yourself. You are inspiring and helpful :) ....... hahaha wow that sounded really mature for my age but what I typed is true :) so thanks Twin for everything XD you rock

  • I love the, she assumed I had a penis . . . I don't. lol anywho remember we all support you and love you Twin <3

  • Lucas, I'm really proud of you!

  • Dear Lucas,

    I am glad of what your doing. i always wanted to be a guy but im christian and its against my beliefs im sorry to hear about your parents but good job with nova's

  • Although I don't know the exact situation with your family, I had issues with my parents for about two years before I was able to transition. My parents and I went through the counseling and preparing for my transition together. And I have to say the thing that helped the most was just talking to them.

    Anyway, best of luck to you!

  • omedetou gozaimasu, things seem to be going well. keep up the good work ^w^ looks like ur fans are supporting you.

    ~centaury2~

  • Lucas you have inspired me to be who I am and love the fact that I'm a guy no matter what other people say or think... I'm sad to hear about your Family Christmas, but hope the best comes out for your future! :)

  • Im glad christmas with your grilfriend was good and i hope your family situation gets better.

    I love titan AE! me and my pals are going to cosplay it

  • well im sorry bout ur family xmas.... but im very sure thats how mine will be in a few years.... (bout 4-5) but im happy its going well.... ur a major insperation to me twin ^_^

  • (I will destroy this thing in a min) a really powerful book about gender at I read recently is called the passion of new eve by Angela carter? Have you read it? It must be a very tough situation with your family I hope they learn more about it and accept that you really are a man.

  • i just have to tell you you'r videos did help me a lot when i whent through my transition, You inspired me a lot. Thank you.

  • (stupid iPad keeps sending early) a really powerful book about gender t

  • Twin+Stretchers=Sexy as Hell

  • Clearly there's a lot more to it, I found the works of Judith Butler very interesting when looking at gende

  • That must be so interesting studying masculiinity at Uni, I imagine that you have a much better grounding in it than most guys because I guess you've really had to question what it is to be a man in and consider it where as a lot of guys might take the perspective of that girl about having a penis, when c

  • My ex had a lot of the same

    Problem where his old friends kept referring to him with female pronouns in our conversations but I'd continually refer to him in male pronouns. Eventually in the conversation they would transition to male pronouns.

    Happy to know you're finding happiness in nova's family and in finding acceptance in your own :D

  • I can't imagine the awkwardness. I sorta can..

  • Stretching your ears? Does that mean you have gauges?

  • Your parents might not ever be OK with the fact that you are male. But they'll always love you. You can't change who you are. That's like trying to change a color to make it fit your own satisfaction, in a sense. Can't be done. Just be who you are, not what others want you to be. Nova's family is accepting, and that's good. Don't over worry, and just stay you.

  • Twin take me to hawaii i want to go back to my home island XD

  • you doing really great lucas!!! XD

  • hmmmm its odd that your a woman im confused on this whole thing i mean you was beautiful as a woman why give that up i mean being a guy is not the greatest thing in th world to be

  • @demon6228 He never was female, mentally he was always male, but he was born into the wrong gender. He isn't female and he never will be. He is a man and he always will be. He can't mentally be female

  • @demon6228

    The thing is that he was never a woman. He may have been physically a female at birth but everything else about him was a male. The real Twinfools on the inside didn't match what the world saw. So now, he is just changing the outside to match what he is on the inside. If you were really a male and everyone refered to you as she and her you wouldn't be a happy campter now would you?

  • hey Lucas, just focus on your own goals and dreams, things will fall into place sooner or later. to me i really think you are one of the most luckyest people in this world to have so many people love and care about you. ^_^

  • Have your parents been watching your videos Lucas? It might be really good for them to watch them just so they can hear your point of view but your not actually saying it to them.

    On another topic I love Titan A.E. and I thought I was the only person left who loved that movie :D

  • *pats ur shoulder* know who u feel. almost same for my xmas too.

  • All the suggested videos to the right are about transitioning, and than there's one random NigaHiga video...

  • Yeah! Come out to Hawaii! :D

  • Lucas, i love your bravery and determination. you are an AMAZING person :)

  • You're too awesome to be brave enough to do this.

  • dude i know how you feel christmas 2011 was my first time as toby to my reletives, they have totally rejected the fact that im trans and continue to call me by my birthname and female pronouns. ive had about 5 letters saying that they wont support me and all that. ive been passing well but people still slip up everyonce in a while. im turning 18 this year which means i can go to the gender clinic in london. yay! my friends are now my family and i will be changing my name officially this year.

  • You have my support Lucas! You are so awesome!

  • Lucas, I cannont even imagin what you went through. I do understand how hurtful it must have been to have your own parents not accept you for who you are ment to be. Just know, you are to do whats best for you, if they do not accept you, then it is their lost becasue you are an amazing young man, and they will miss out. I'm glad Nova's parents were so sweet to you <3 I hope you have a lovely new years! Much love <3

  • Hey Lucas I can understand and I support you don't change be true to yourself ^.^

  • hi twin and nova happy new year and have much success in the future i love you guys and do not worry about your parents have many friends and relatives as a nova and its parents and when we see your progress.once again Happy New Year and top head

  • Lucas are you in high school or college ?

  • @pokedoc101 He is in college

  • Lucas you have my Support. and the support, we are all happy for you

  • i'l support you 100% actually over 100% lol

  • Ahhh, really sorry about your parents dude, but that is pretty kickass that you do have quite a bit of support from other important people in your life! You are such an inspiration for all of us here(From any walk of life)!

    Titan A.E., so nostalgic! XD

  • Your are so cool and I first like got a chock when my friend first told me you been like a girl before, I always seen you as a guy and i always will ^^

  • Well in one way Twin, I understand and stand up for your side, in another, I stand up for your parents too, because you see when a baby is born a certain gender, the parents picture their kids future a certain way, and now that you're turning into a guy, they suddenly have lost their daughter. So right now they're grieving for the lost of their little girl, but all the same they will still love(And better or I will come after them)and you're still their kid. You as their kid will stay the same.

  • good job lucas with your girlfriends family!!!! i love how they love you (if that makes sense) But im sorry about your family have a good new year!!!

  • Don't worry too much about it, your parents will have to come round eventually, it just takes longer for some people to accept big changes. :)

  • hey lucas, my parents doesn't accept me too. i know how you feel.

  • I really hope that some day soon your family realizes that you have made your own lifestyle decision. This is who you are! You can be who/what you want, if anyone doesn't have your back then they shouldn't be lingered on. Eventually they will have to give in. I'm glad to have been here and watched you, and Nova's growth. I will always support you no matter what. <3 Love you guys forever and always. <3

  • I'm happy for ya man. Not every one has a family or has a girl friends family like you do

  • The only person you should be is yourself Lucas, they're your family and they should know better than to try to ignore the fact that you're happier as you are now. Never change for anyone, you're an inspiration to so many people and to others going through the same hardships.

    Sincerely, someone who looks up to you.

  • you don't have a penis? ok then...

  • your awesome Lucas just a weird q what is your birth name? ur brave Lucas

  • I think it would be interesting to have you speak during your class, you could open a lot of minds and bring up more discussion.

  • hey twinfool i have a ??? for ya! do ya syill cosplay at all?

  • @MsYazu of course he does.check out his cosplay group's channel fightingdreamerspro

  • Wish I had your guts dude

  • it's nice hearing from you :) and it's great that some people actually accept you, i understand that it must be hard for you and your parents though :( good luck!

  • This is so honest from ya :)

  • :O I LOVE Titan A.E!!!!!! :) I love you 2000x more now!!!!!!!!! :D and that's really good about your aunt!

  • thank you so much for your video's lucas your helping my friend out alot with your experiences and the way you handle them :) your a very brave and amazing person ^_^

  • I'm not all that sure what it's like to be you, but i do know what its like to be accepted by one side and still confused about the other. You're really an insparation and I'm always one of those people looking forward to your videos, it must be still hard for you, but you know you've got all these fans here for ya and Nova's there too. If i had not found these videos i don't think i'd be where i am now, smiling, laughing, being who i truly want to be, knowing nothing can stop me from being me

  • All I wanted to say has already been said in other comments, so I just wanna add that:

    We're all here for you no matter what! <3 We all love and adore both you and Nova and we all want you to be happy! Everyone is here for you! <3

  • Please don't bother replying to me.. I am returning to being annonymous. :)

  • you will always be the awesomest. Lucas you are the best man

  • I'm sorry for the wall of text too.

  • I really do think that your parents are in denial. It probably isn't easy for them to know that their little girl is now a little man. Imagine having a child of your own, planning for their future, and all of the possibilities that they have, yet you could have never predicted this path they are currently on. They watched you grow into a beautiful woman, standing by your side for 20 odd years, then suddenly it seems to be stripped away by your own freedom to do what you want with your mind/body

  • I think that most parents are looking for that little child they had so long ago, even when their kids are adults. I think they want to be held by the hand just like they did before, and to be taken along the road with you.

    I moved out not long ago, and I find that the less I phone my parents, the more worried they get, and the more confused they are about my decision. After talking with them more, they understand better, and we are on better terms.

  • It isn't quite the same as being trans, I know that, but I think that even though it is hard, just talking to them about it more often, might relieve some of the stress. I would also just try not worrying about the pronouns with your parents, atleast not untill they are a bit more comfortable.

    I realize that I am not an expert and that you will probably think that this advice is out of my bounds, but all I am is concerned. Please forgive me if I have crossed the line. Not trying to cause a stir

  • I believe that with work, your family will eventually come around. That is my hope for you in this new year.

    I find this whole story very inspiring, and even though it might be sad with your parents right now, I think it is great that Nova's family is there for you. I also think that a little hot weather and vacation would be great for you. ;D

    Here's hoping things work out for the better. It is looking like it already is with Nova's family. :)

    Cheers!

  • Dear Lucas, I'm glad you had over all a good Christmas season. :D

  • @bjmac18 LOL!!! love that comment Mulan reference FTW!!!

  • Dear Lucas, even though I cannot imagine on this subject how it may feel to have your parents call you by female prounouns while you've been going through these, changes and you're a guy now, I'll be hoping for you that they'll accept who you are in time,for now its good that others do accept you as who you are, Like Nova's Family. so please...just be you Lucas..whoever you are, Lucas is Lucas and you're in general( as far as I can see) an awesome person! Don't give up!

  • anyone know his birth name :O

  • I always thought that what made a man meant that you had to be swift as the coursing river, with all the force of a great typhoon, with all the strength of a raging fire and mysterious as the

    dark side of the moon. But hey, I could be wrong!

  • Dear lucas, i find you really brave to go for what makes you feel comfortable, and what makes you happy; and what is truly you. I hope you stay strong, and i'm glad nova is supporting you and her family seems great. C: I love to see how you're doing, so updates like this make me glad to know what's going on in your life, and your big transition. It makes me understand, transgenders a lot more. I'm also informed more, about my boyfriends transition. Thank you <3 I'll forever be subscribed to you.

  • I admire u so much!! Keep it up n i wish u the best!

  • heya Lucas,

    im happy to hear things r going great this year for you~ Hawaii!! WOOT, say yes!

    but.. ur family kinda reminds me of mine little bit. they want me to be straight on holidays, PFFTS! mannnn if i were u for a day id take my shirt infront of them and be all like "HEYYY LADIES!"

    LOL.. well maybe tats little to crazy even for me. but u know lol

    anywho keep doing what ur doing, me and tonns of fans got yo back!

    and never let anyone make u feel less of a man!

    -Joey

  • im sure your parents will come around eventually, most parents do when they cant accept or dont understand something about their child even if it takes time.

  • dear Lucas, I can imagine how difficult and sad it must be for you not being able to be accepted by your own parents, it just rips my heart apart. But really really great that Nova's family has accepted you. And you're totally totally awesome!

  • you're awesome, Lucas! I'm really proud of you~!

    -River xxx

  • :)

  • I'm really happy for you, Lucas. Looks like you're doing really great! Even of how uncomfortable it is that your parents call you by female pronouns, it's just a matter of time before they give in...Well, that is what I believe. Nova's family seems pretty nice to let you in like that and invites you to family trips too! That's pretty cool, man! 8D

    To be honest I wish I were in your shoes ^^ You're a lucky dude!

  • hey :D not too be creepy but its Cody....Katherines frieendd....and I just want you to know I love you :3 k bai

  • Titan A.E. it will always cheer you up. Other than that, good luck. It's always hard when your family doesn't accept you right away, but over time the ice will melt.

  • i hope things will get better with your family ^^

  • im glad that there accepting you twin <3

  • You look so good with black hair Twin~! Glad you aren't rushing in to the whole ear-stretching thing because sometimes people go bigger than they want and can't reverse it easily. You look good with earrings too. ^^

  • It gets better I'm sure of it.

  • Hey Twin,

    Glad to hear you’re doing well. Hang in there your family will come around when they’re ready. You have my support. You and Nova and all of fightingdreamers! <3

    I hope you and Nova can go to Hawaii and I hope to see you two at a con again this year!

    All my best,

    LadySnowBird

  • Your parents will probably come around soon... :) Hope everything works out.

  • sorry about your family though... ): sorry about your family (again) i rlly am.

  • It doesn't matter what colour, reliogion, sexual orientation ect, you may be--be yourself. Some people won't understand or respect who you are, but who cares what they think? If your happy with the way you are--then so be it. You shouldn't have to be put in akward situations over who you are with family. If someone doesn't suport your choice--it doesn't matter. Only your opinion counts. Be who you want to be--not what other's want to see.

    I admire and respect you <3 Always have. Always will

  • AHH I LOVE YOU! <3 glad you feel accepted!

  • im not in your situation so i can't realy tell you whaat i would do becasue i do't know but i think you can't really do anything about it like going along with your parents or th rest of your family you are who you are and you are a guy so you should be what you are you don't need to change for other people you can't really change who you are so be yourself no one should expect anything else but im sure your parents love you so theyll come around eventualy. they just might not be ready to let go

  • I think your parents will come around later on.

    I bet it is a bit odd, but in all honesty I think you're doing great.

    You're really an awesome person in my eyes and I appreciate you even though we've never met haha You're very strong and know what you want in life. Parents can be difficult but sooner and later they come around. Heh, I really wish I could say something cool like a Manga Character, but I've never really been good with my words..Just stay strong...kay.. ^ ^

  • was it yunas parents place?
