Butch is a gender expression, trans/ftm/man is a gender identity. You can be butch and identify as a woman or you can be butch and identify as a man or transman. The two things are not dependent on each other.
In this whole mess that is "gender-confusion" and with all the pain said mess causes me at times when I least expect it. Even 2 years after you put up this video.
I liked, and favoured it.
And it's not because I agree with you, not because I think that you are right. Its because you say this one thing. Family.
That is what rips me to shreds. Good shreds for once. Hell yes. You are. No doubt in my mind whatsoever.
Thanks for this amazing statement. Be well, happy and loved.
OMG... my dear.... I relate almost exactly to your own presentation here, at this point in my life, however I prefer to use genderqueer...and not ftm, although I also thought about the fact that I should have been a boy since early on in my life (as far back as 6yrs old)... Thanks for this video... i have shared it on my FB. :)
Julz's a wonderful video ans attitude, Thanks so very much for sharing, don't you just love the boxes and labels, as much as I hate them we do need them!!
Butch is not only a gender, its not just related to sexuality either, I call myself FTM *and* butch. I'm a masculine, butch guy. Im not an effeminate FTM.
I have issues identifying as either gender also, I can definitley see butch as a gender almost on it's own. We break the binary in lots of ways. I hate when people think that because I am butch that I want to be a trans guy, I don't! Your videos are great.
Hello Julz...I'm Jackie from Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
I just wanted to say that this was one of the best videos on this topic I ever saw. Thanks you. You're an interesting person for sure! All the best to you!
Hello, Jackie. Thanks for your comment and for your sub. I'm glad you enjoyed the video. I feel bad that the quality was so poor, but at least the content is good. I hope all is well with you. Take care.
I am glad to see you are finding yourself. Each of us must travel our own journey. As each of us travels through our journey we learn more about ourselves and about the world that surrounds us.
Hey Aiden, thanks for the comment! By the way, I went back and watched your first video and I can't believe how much your voice has changed since then! You sound great!
I'm glad they helped a little. Send me a message if you ever want to talk about things. Thanks for the sub, by the way. I wish you all the best of luck. Take care.
Once agian another great video, your videos have gotten me to do a lot of soul searching as far as what I identify with. I know I have to just be true to myself, and do what ever I feel will help me reach that.
hi sys, i really loved your video, the flare part is kinda cool for the subject, i think you have beautiful thoughts and the part of running to your house was sooo! cool for the ending, maybe you should do this "artistic" videos more often, keep hangin' there sys you're not alone...
Haha, I'm glad you enjoyed. I liked that clip too. I only had it because I didn't want to take the extra time to stop the camera before getting to a plug, but it worked out nicely. Take care.
thank you so much for sharing your thoughts and expirences, it gives me hope that one day i will be happy whatever i do.
question: at the time you thought/ identified as trans, did you come out? and if you did how did people take it when (if) you said you that your now yourself?
Those are really excellent questions, thank you for asking. They're such big questions that I don't think I could answer them in these little comment boxes, so I'm going to make a video response for you. Hopefully I'll have it up in the next couple of days.
Thanks this video was so helpful to me. I appreciate your point of view and sharing your own self exploration.

Sometimes I use the pronoun hy on paper or text so ppl know I am female and masculine but not male.

This video is so insightful- if you haven't found your identity yet, it eventually finds you.
I'm 17, and just starting to figure things out for myself. You helped me so much, thank you.

*hugs right back to you* I'm honored to help a little in the process of your soul searching. It's such a difficult, important, and rewarding thing.
As Polonius said to Laertes, so I say to you:
"This above all: to thine own self be true,
And it must follow, as the night the day,
Thou canst not then be false to any man.
Farewell, my blessing season this in thee!"
