  • I'm trying to grow my hair out a little shorter than yours :) right now it's a little funky looking since it's sticking up everywhere and I'm a little worried about passing once it does get long, but I'll deal with the problem whenever, if ever, it comes up.

  • people need to stop gender stereotyping.your gender could be male,and u could even wear makeup..geez

  • I love long hair on guys. It's super cute. Right now my hair is short, but I can see myself letting it grow out in several years.

    "Guys don't have long hair"? Hah.. No.

  • Oh this is brilliant. I'm actually growing mine right now. It looks so bad, but I'm going for the grungey kind of look so I'm hoping it ends up working. Thais has given me hope though, so thankyou!!

  • peed when Hair came on. youre amazing

  • guys don't have long hair? What about the bulk of metal fans? You can't do that gnarly head swirl without long hair!

  • Guys with long hair are sexy as fuck.

  • you've got more balls than most genetic males

    you are a badass mutherfucker

  • I got so pissed off at my psych when she told me that if I didn't cut my hair everyone would see me as a girl.

  • I love your hair and it suits you I wouldnt cut it just because of what people say. Your hair looks amazing on you it suits you really really well!!!

  • boy's/men do have long hair

  • I'm a transman with hiplenght hair. I feel it's stopping me in passing, but I still want kneelenght hair. My hair is straight, not very messy by nature and I take great care of it to achieve my lenght goal. I also have bangs, which I have problems growing out (I've had bangs since childhood, and only grew them out once, and then I went crazy with scissors on my head so bangs again). How can I still pass with this? Biker bandana while the bangs grow out? Braiding synth dreads on bangs?[...]

  • [...] I have some short wigs wich I use when I go out as male (I'm not out everywhere, I'm a very closeted person), but I'm afraid I'll have to do as most trans people tell me in the end to pass: cut it :( I hate myself with short hair, I look like a lesbian if anything.. Help? Thank you BTW, you look amazing <3 Can I be you?

  • Guys don't have long hair? Bull fucking shit. I know TONS of guys with long hair, and it looks great on them, as it does on you. Ugalugalug people these days -__-

  • wait you get hate from the trans community.......what the fuck. you can't be serious lol

  • Comment removed

  • Dude, I love your hair. What do you do to get it like that?

  • fuck don't do it.. i had long hair!! and i miss it! fuck the trans-stereotypes.. and if they are asking you to that it's probibly cause.. they miss there long hair.. you go dude!! keep up that star ov urs!!

  • It love short hair and cut most of it off and this guy just stright up said lesbian haircut. I just laughed it off but how can a haircut be lesbian :/ So annoying .

  • Here's some Love to compensate the hate. :-)

    Isn't it just too much that 'trans' has become such a narrow pigeon-hole that you get the feeling you have to live up to irrelevant expectations?

    I like the old fashioned word 'androgynous' or the new term 'gender queer'. Maybe putting youself into 1 of these boxes could give you some more breathing space.

    I like your hair & frankly I don't care about your gender just about your happiness. Gender has gone into a general state of flux & that's great.

  • My guy friend has hair the exact same colour/length/style as yours, so i totally agree with your ideas about this. :) Good for you.

  • I love your long hair!!

  • Hey Ryan! I loved this video!! Made me laugh out loud that HAIR is why people in your own community felt they should open their mouths and speak up. I applaud you for giving them the middle finger. :) Keep on keepin on

  • Long hair rocks! I have an undercut but I also have a blue coloured fringe (or bangs?) at the front. My hair used to be plain brown and down to my tail bone and even before I realised I was trans I passed a lot.

  • Comment removed

  • I am a trans guy and I say that you should keep your hair how you like it :3

  • HAHA I love how you say Oregon. I live in Oregon and I've never heard anyone say that before!

  • You are so cute! oiwefsdlk

  • I'm a transguy, I like my hair medium. Not short short. Just like how I like it..fuck what others think!

  • russel brand is transphobic fyi

  • The trans community should be peaceful and accepting. Isn't that what every trans person advocates for anyway? By the way, I think that when people say to cut hair when you transition, they mean you should have it in a male stlye, not necessarily super short. The point is, long hair is awesome and it looks great on you, Ryan. Love your dreads.!

  • at first, i thought you were a girl

  • russel brand is ur hero? nice. he's hilarious.

  • fuck those ignorant bitches. Ryan has the most amazing hair everrrr (:

  • That it probably the stupidest thing I've ever heard...you shouldnt even have to be making a video about this. Dont know why people can't just stop taking their own personal issues out on others. Sorry man, but on the plus side your hair is awesome!

  • I think when trans guys have longer hair, it actually makes them look more masculine because really short hair makes your face look more round and feminine.

  • Sounds really hypocritical. Part of transgender and gender variance and gender nonconforming includes understanding that typical gender roles are terrible, pointless, and don't make any sense.

  • Your hair is amazing don't let anyone stereotype you you can definitely still pass

  • I feel you because in Friday I was walking down the hall and this weird teaches he told my friend who has long hair he's all like "Young Lady!! No eating in the hallways!" and I'm like "What the Fuck" Amd he's like "Watch your Language!" and I said "It's very obvious he's a guy!" and he's like "Well pardon me" I hate that teacher person.

  • i am an ultra masculine trans man. i used to have long beautiful blonde hair and everyone told me that in order to be seen as male i had to cut it. i just recently had it cut off for the first time ever (like scalped basically) and it is one of the biggest mistakes i have ever made. my hair can't grow back fast enough for me now...

  • OMG I love your long hair... I am trans with short hair but I fucking want to grow my hair out so bad. Also I want to do a female bodybuilding competition in about 6 months so I feel like I should grow my hair out!

    I think guys with long hair are so hot

  • Holy shit. We share a LOT of the same heroes. Motley Crue? GNR? Led Zep? Russel Brand? Johnny Depp? You are too amazing. And I agree with everything you said in the video. Appearance doesn't have anything to do with gender identity. If a cis guy has long hair, it's a rare occasion for someone to call him a girl. So why do people accuse a trans guy of not being a guy because of a hairstyle? Especially when it comes from other trans people who should know the difference between fashion and gender.

  • @abcdefghijk2215 I know right >:D im so jealous of him i wishmy hair was that amazing.

  • I'm a cis guy with hair about as long as yours.

    They're fucking idiots, man. Long hair rules.

  • you have like FUCKING perfect skin

  • Don't let anyone tell you that you can't have long hair. You wear it well! :D

  • HAIR HAIR HAIR HAIR HAIRHAIR OHHHHHH! :D

  • You look great! I wish I could be able to pass well when I get my hair long again.

  • WTF that's not cool, a lot of men have long hair, don't listen to anyone Ryan you are a strong person, the length of your hair does not matter

  • I love you.

  • dude, dot cut it !! its awesome !!!

  • OKAY WELL I AM JUST SAYING GUYS WITH LONG HAIR ARE SEXY AND HOT SO YEAH!!!! ;)

  • I'm a trans guy and my hair is long same with all my other trans friends

  • fy guys with long hair :)

  • Your hair is fricken awesome. You're a rock star, might as well have the look too! :) It suits you very well, Ryan.

  • Boys have long hair G Damn it.

    My hero is you Ryan :)

  • omg your hair is flawless. please don't EVER change your look xo

  • don't cut your hair! it's amazing *-* don't worry about them haters.

  • I like yr hair... of cares how you have yr hair... you make good music and are a sound person XD

  • Picking on someone or hating on someone, transgender or not, based on the way they LOOK is completely disrespectful and immoral. It's what on the insid that counts. What gives ANYONE the right to judge others on their FACIAL appearance?

    I mean, I'm not being funny but I actually prefer longer hair on guys, and I have no idea why they say it's girly because when I first saw a video of you Ryan, I had no idea you were trans. Not a single clue. So just ignore those ignorant pricks.

  • befor I started my transition I had log hair on and off my hole life and now its realy long now and my brothers also had long hair my dad even did at one time in his life so keep your hair it looks good on you.

  • I think you ROCK!!! You don't have to fit into someone else idea of passing or their perceptions of what a male shud be... I think every guy has their idea of what they shud look like and well you are perfect Ryan!!! I love the way you express yourself and think it unnecessary that you need to make this vid...You are doing it right cause that's what you want...Always here to support you!

  • Awww! Your adorable!

  • It's 2011, it's totally common for guys to have long hair wtf =/

  • your hair is perfectly fine the way it is, I am trying to grow mine out too. don't listen to the hate :)

  • Man, hair seems to be a big issue for people. People hate on Justin Bieber and say his hair makes him look gay, people hate on my brother cause he has long bleeched hair, people hate on me 'cause I'm a girl with short hair and apparently it makes me look like a lesbian/boy :S how the hell that works I don't know... And now people hating on you cause you have long hair.... But I think it makes you look awesome Ryan. But don't worry about people's opinions, they're changing all the time anyway

  • Comment removed

  • Dude, Ryan, you are so awesome. Please continue to NOT listen to those ignorants doufuses. There are ALL kinds of guys and if other trans guys choose to perpetuate gender stereotypes that continue to make our lives more difficult, that's their choice BUT we don't have to listen to them! I respect you soooooo much for always thinking for yourself.

  • Guys have long hair.... Some guys even wear ponytails. We don't want stereotypes started of the trans community after all.

  • i know a of guys having long hair. do what you wants.

    and its not especially because someone is trans that he/she has to do what his gender stereotypes shows

  • no what, thanks for this vid. am a trans guy an i hav been thinkin bout growin my hair out a bit (admittedly more to keep my mum happy not coz i personally want long hair) theres been this stupid part of me thats been thinkin tha people might not take me as bein serious bout bein trans if i dont look tha masculine. i no its daft, but i do not pass well at all atm an admittedly do feel rather insecure bout tha. but loads of cisguys hav long hair includin my own bro!so y should i worry? thanks man

  • Dreds forming...legit Ryan Cassata. Your hair is a-ok...ya look like a rockstar

  • See this is one thing I cannot understand, we in the LGBTQ community already get enough hate from homophobic nimrods which I think, is more than enough. Why the hell are you going to hate on someone who is part of your community and try to make THEM fit into a fucking stereotype? Like aren't we all fighting for equality, as well as understanding from people are ignorant of what is like being gay, lesbian, trans, or queer?

    Fuck them Ryan, keep doing things your way.

    -Riley

  • Yea i can relate to this as well. i have dreads and i want to grow em even longer. WHat i hate is when other transguys say i have to cut my hair. maybe ill cut it later in life or whatever but not now.

  • I actually think that longer hair can actually help hide feminine faces, especially if you have long bangs.

    And besides that point, I know a ton of cis guys with long hair, and no one gives them crap about it.

    Your hair is awesome.

  • In the wise words of Chris Crocker: Happiness is only a hair flip away! =D

  • Such beautiful hair. >.<

  • good for you ryan!! i love having long hair too:) totally agree!! fuck if i don't pass after a year on T xD

  • hair is one of the only musicals i can handle. long hair is awesome

  • Tell them to kick rocks Ryan! Good for you. Stand up for what you believe in..and you'll find that others will to. O.o

  • good for u ! love ur music

  • Ryan, good for you. Don't cut the hair. I HAVE COUNTLESS STRAIGHT CIS MALE FRIENDS WITH SHOULER-LENGTH HAIR. I ALSO HAVE A TRANSMAN FRIEND WITH HAIR DOWN TO HIS THIGHS. TO ALL OF YOU INSECURE PEOPLE OUT THERE (TRANS OR NOT), STOP WORRYING ABOUT IT. IF YOU ARE TRYING TO FIT RYAN'S HAIR INTO A BOX, HOW HYPOCRITICAL OF YOU WHEN YOU ARE AGAINST PEOPLE WHO NEED TO FIT YOUR GENDER INTO ONE.

  • I passed better with long hair cause it hid my round face.. and when I didn't pass I could tell myself it was just cause I got long hair.. but now I've cut it short and I've no excuses :(

  • I agree, I always cut my hair below my ears, then after a bit keep it a bit long for a bit. I love it either way. And either way, I pass, too. What ever you like and you feel good with, go for it, who cares what stereo types are, or what others are saying?

    You're awesome, just keep doing what you like. :)

  • Slash has long hair.

    Debate Over

  • Holy bass line in that song...

    ...anyway, Ryan, you rock.

    I totally agree with this vid.

  • ALOT of guys, both cis and trans have long hair. I personally like my hair short, abut im sure if i wanted to grow my hair out i would pass fine. Girls can have short hair, guys can have long hair. We as the trans community especially, and the young ones. WE need to be the generation to BREAK these stereotypes! If we can break the stereotypes to move to another era in society.

  • Um.. Guys do have long hair...

    Some TransGuys believe stereotypes. That if you're a transguy you must have SUPER short hair.. Um no. My friend Maison, he has hair about your length, he's not even out and he passes!

    >.>

  • Yeah that's not cool..I have long hair to so I think you should just make a video saying fuck them

  • I'm not sure that what you're getting should be called hate. It could be more like strong concern that you're inviting difficulty in passing.

  • I never really cared about your hair but I thought it was pure black Not brown!

    Also can we chat?

  • great video i agree im genderqueer and i do have short hair but im sick of having to cut it almost every month

  • People who say boys can't have long hair are just out of it, if u look around there are guys who have long hair where ever you go! It's the style u like any no one should tell you other wise.

  • I don't get why your hair would bother anyone. It's a long BOY's haircut, it doesn't even pass your shoulders! So much guys have it!

  • You shouldn't have to explain yourself. It's sad that you do. There are so many long haired guys out there, too, including me. And a lot of women these days have short hair, too. Hair length =/= gender identity. As my former boss always says: you do you.

  • I like your hair.  I say wear it however you want.

  • It is 2011. Why are guys still getting flak for having long hair?

  • your hair looks fine ignore the idiots who say different!

  • Bro do your thing my hairs kinda long too I'm a skater but fuck it,

  • Yeah it's not cause you're trans, it's cause you're male..... Most cisgendered guys with long hair get the same "hate".

  • Boys started having long hair around 1967 or so. You have to be very conservative to think boys don't have long hair.

  • HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAH There idiots! your hair is fine!!!!! tons of boys have even longer hair! do whatever you want bro

  • You're fine Ryan. Your hair doesn't make you look like a girl. You look like a hawt guy doing what cool hot NY guys do. :]

  • What the fuck..thats stupid! I have long hair and i dont get shit from anyone, ignore those idiots

  • whut the heck.......there is a lot of guys that have long hair, they should really shut up.

  • Uhmm I think you pass just fine with long hair.. It suits your personality,

  • Ryan, You're awesome :) I love your hair it looks great on you. Very rockstary and I've seen tons of guys that prefer to grow the hair out and I think it looks pretty darn cool. Don't listen to the haters your true fans love you

  • "Boys don't have long hair"

    That's BS... don't worry about the "community", they can be awful sometimes. Keep being who you want to be and don't worry about what others have to say :)

  • Almost cut my hair It happened just the other day It was getting kind of long I could have said it was in my way But I didn't and I wonder why I feel like letting my freak flag fly And I feel like I owe it to someone But I'm not giving in an inch to fear Cos I promised myself this year I feel like I owe it to someone When I finally get myself together Cos I feel like I owe it, yeah Said I feel like I owe it, yeah You know I feel---- like I owe it yeah to someone
  • thats so rediculous. u pass perfectly. so to hell with wut they say. u r u, and thats all that matters. <33

  • Comment removed

  • do not cut your hair its better long(:

  • Let your freak flag fly!

  • Wow, do they not realize how many guys have long hair?

  • What the hell? Getting shit from trans*guys for your hair... that's fucked up. Rock on :D
