@JJFanshawe Yup. What possess people to come up with those kind of comments. I should make a video of my experience with people this semester. I never knew ignorance was so omni-present.
This comment doesn't really belong with this video, but I really loved the "Fawnshoe" mispronunciation. The idea of a fawn wearing shoes is good enough, but combined with the thick-headedness required to persist in such a mispronunciation it becomes truly wonderful.
I know the feeling why must people get so personal they ask things that they would NEVER ask anyone other than a TG person :/ ones I have had (being MTF) are "so... when are you gona get it cut off? another is how do you hide (it) I heard that tranys push there balls in and tape them in is that true? ( non compliment "wow for a guy your cute as a girl"
your videos are very interesting ^.^ and very useful to both FTM's & MTF's thank you very much :)
@JJFanshawe My "favorite" comment? Probably the person who said "You can't have OCD. You don't wash your hands that much." Because, of course, OCD's defining trait is ... what? The tendency to scrub your skin with bleach? (I think they also missed the point of taking medication with that comment).
@TerrieES Wow, ok, yeah, people can be pretty ignorant. And it's not like there aren't resources on any of this kind of stuff. Or even, ehh, more polite ways to ask questions...
Okay, so I signed up for YouTube just to comment. this totally made me laugh and cringe at the same time. I could relate slightly, since I take psychiatric drugs and there are people who act like I'm a DrugZombie, without any real personality because of it. I've had those moments where you're convinced that there's something wrong with your ears, because what sort of person would ever say something like that?
@TerrieES Hey Terrie, thanks for taking all that trouble to leave a comment. :)
I know what you mean. Sometimes I'm just initially shocked at the things some people come up with. I can imagine that you also hear some pretty ignorant comments from people. I'm glad the video made you laugh.
Totally forgot I had subscribed to you... and why... Anywho, it's a good thing I live on the other side of an ocean or I might be obnoxious enough to give you my number... not to be a total creep.
@HRHrMegafan I know, right? I was walking home, going "I can't beliiieeeve that just happened!" And then I got home and told the Heckler, and she was all "I can't beliiiieeeeve that just happened!"
@jayneedschocolate Thanks! Fortunately in times of need I can always remind myself that I've met so many more fun people than ignorant ones that this kind of incident comes to matter a lot less.
You should be an actor. You're very expressive. Quite amusing. You've got good comedic timing as well. Doesn't hurt that you're a hottie with a smexy accent either.
@dfeuer Ah, thanks. That makes sense. ^,^ I'm a semi-new subscriber to his channel so I haven't seen all of the videos yet. I've mostly been looking into the trans-related ones first since I'm pre-everything and rabid for info. >_>
You know, I think sometimes it is justified to hit people. This is rather a textbook case in point. The fact that you didn't just shows the level of dignity with which you handled the situation, especially considering you were walking around with two massive slashes in you chest. Oh, wait. That's probably why you *didn't*. ;P Anyway, that was just *o*!
@SuzyS85 You know me. I don't generally hit people. Except for the closing night of Hamlet, of course, where I accidentally knocked into Laertes... That was like that time in AYLI when people said my boobs looked remarkably real on stage. XD
@JJFanshawe Oh dear, did you? On stage? By accident? Cuz I thought the whole fight scene was rather part of the plot. And I've seen it twice. Well, shows you what I know. ;P And about the boob-thing: WOOT?! Whaha... WOOT?!
@JJFanshawe Ahh, socked! The evil sock of many years ago, first making his appearance, if I recall correctly, in a certain Short Story class... But that thing is Eeeeevil. Surely the 'socking' was the puppet's doing, not yours! ;)

That was incredibly impressive towel drag! At first, i didn't even know what it was, because I did not think a towel could look like that. Kudos!
