srs and education

[tearethomas]

hey i really appreciated this video. however i happen to disagree with you about the cross dressing being offensive to trans people. I think that gender is a spectrum and that cross dressers fall on the spectrum and that cross dressing is a totally legitimate way to express gender identity, or just have a good time exploring aspects of the other gender.

[rabbitwho]

@tearethomas I wonder if she feels different about it now that she's happier. People only insult the choices other people make about their life path when they're uncomfortable with themselves and their own skin.

[Jonathansumner]

ya I too hate that we are pushed off to the side even by people that don't mean too. Personal I don't know why we are cateogrizes with gays anyway. We are special. It is not about sex with us. I am a woman and I am proud of it.

[jeanton1]

I disagree I think when everyone crossdress it makes it easier for transgedered to come out for a day. Just like holloween. When I was in school I looked forword to it. When only a few people do it they become singled out and targeted by other kids.

[mtf91tran]

so does your voice change after being on hormones for a certain period of time? By the way you look great!!

[cherrycolahater]

FREAK. YOU ARE DISGUSTING.

[TheReasonWhyGuy]

40-135 transgendered people are born every single day...

Its not that rare...

[ASecretToEveryone]

Then you look at the number of people born each day total >_>

[FergusonTO35]

That guy Paul does not speak for all Christians. His views are only one of many ways that Christians approach this subject. I'm a pretty devout Christian and I think you're pretty cool. Your struggles with gender have nothing to do with salvation or lack thereof. Jesus didn't spend alot of time talking about sexual matters, mostly he spoke out against the horrible way people treat each other.

[sweetmissy88]

I was never lucky enough to have a "transday" growing up...but I went to "Rocky Horror" every saturday...it might be worth it if just one of those kids felt brave enough to be themselves...even for just one day...so that is a positive.

I wish the world could be easier for us "girls"...if I had the priviledge to start transitioning after the first time I put on a dress...I think that Kindergarten would have been much more fun :)...

...and Id look alot more like a Barbie...lol

[BOBSTAHL]

wonderful person, world needs more like you.

[Cannewman2006]

If you watch your videos now and the first video you made. your look like a girl now.

[mayakoil]

You go girl!

by the way ashley , does SRS also include a construction of a hymen?

[AndrogyneMichinaga]

Rather sure not. Also, why make something just to get broken!

[Tatertut]

dumb ass....

Dear Ashley/Chris

If you are thinking of removing the members

of your body,through(srs) then this is very dangerous

and can ultimately lead to parmanent damage

of your body and as a result of your loss of manhood. I encourage you to think twice and let the Holy Spirit speak to your heart.

Jesus cares and so do I

Don't destroy your live

Yours

paul

[icecoldbath]

fuck you and fuck your jesus.

[icecoldbath]

you are clearly a freak.

[crystalove2468]

its ashley life and u needto stay ot of it.

[pauljbo]

Hi Chris! Also don't ye know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit who'so ever destroys the temple then God will destroy him or her Justice will be done on judgment day But God is also a loving Father There for ye repent and glorify Christ in your body You too can have eternal life in our Lord Jesus Christ You have been bueatifuly created wonderfly in Gods images. yours always Paul

[icecoldbath]

eternity sucking God's dick? count me out.

[dsun89]

holy shit, fuck right off you ignorant son of a bitch, you are the reason religion is on it's way out. God doesn't exist, you're devoting your life to a meaningless fictitious character. I don't normally go off like this (my arguments are usually more thought out) but this fucking pisses me off! Mind your business. Go fuck yourself.

[Callabris]

show me something saying religion is on it's way out. Please prove the exsistence ot non exsistense of such god. you say your arguments are more though out Does that mean they usualy involve more foul language? your honestly being just as ingorant.

[pgy001]

Paul I believe in God, but people like you turn people AWAY from God. I don't think God made Ashley a male anymore than hemade the baby born with 3 arms THAT way! One of his arms was surgically REMOVED. Ashley is doing the same thing, she is just correcting a birth defect. Is it wrong for the kid to have an arm removed? After all God created him that way, IYO. Also people change their bodies all the time when they DON'T EVEN NEED TO!! What about coloring your hair or getting plastic surgery?

[Callabris]

Paul could you do us a favor and keep your bibble thumping biggotry out of it. you have the right to your beliefs and faith as do other people. the one thing I dislike so much about more Christian/jesus fallowing religions is the need/right the people have to shove religion down other people throats.

Paul tell me something. For those born A sexual.(hermaphrodite) where they have the combination of both male and female organs. what are they supposed to do? would choosing a gender be a sin to god

[64Maryluz]

@icecoldbath Ashley you seem like a good person and that´s what God really wants us to be. Being a good person and applying moral values to your daily life is way more important to him than your sexual preferences. Keep being a good person and just please don´t insult the faith of millions...many of which support you because that´s just mean. God loves you independently of your sexuality.

[xRockstarBarbiex]

Hi paul , i think you need to re think your terms "male" "female" .... Im INTERSEXED . That means i wasnt born fully male OR fully male . I was born with VERY small testicular tissue on my ovaries which was enought to masculinez my genitalia YET go through puberty as a female AND began to menstruating. Would you consider me male or female ? btw I have a healthy uterus too which im actually fertile as a women .

[pgy001]

Paul-*and as a result of your loss of manhood.* I think that's kinda the idea Pauly baby!

[Larryk12308]

Um OK um er (blush) for the record,

um um um (deep breath) i think that a t-girl

(hope that's an OK term to use) with an erection is (gulp) really sexy! Whew! (runs like hell 4 the exit)

oh BTW: homophobia stinks!

[GLBTQcommunity]

I was called faggot at my summer camp. I was also told to take off my pants.

[CynicalCustom]

You are a pioneer for a new generation. Don't tell yourself otherwise.

[GenieP]

Ashley: Patience is of primary concern with a TS transition. So, darling, just hang in there and relish the SRS when it finally arrives. Wow, you're so brave and on the leading edge of the TGLB education. See, I listened...and added the "T" as the first in the acronym.  Love ya!

[smlaurieanne]

hun sos sorry u were depresed your so sweet

[BayAreaBoi86]

I've had a similar experience working with children and revealing gender identity. I thought it would be important to educate rather than ignore an important issue. the administration was also very supportive.

[calif92627]

Go for it girl. You also have a very ladylike voice and would be a beautiful real girl. As for me my biggest fear is the lack of a good fem voice but I have been to the mall dressed.

[EdensxDemise]

Hey ashley great videos , hope you feel better sweetie hugglez ! ima subscribe to your videos

[airbornehexeh]

[gothique11]

Great vlog. You look so pretty. I hope you can get your SRS soon. I'm getting mine next year, I hope. Education is really important, and I'm proud of you for doing that.

[icecoldbath]

Thanks! *blush*

[allylynn44]

Zero so lucky, I just want to be able to buy missy. You maybe in the perfect position to to educate lots of people about us. Not all of us are able to have a forum were we can do that. Good Luck with your lecture, open their eyes, show that most of us are not fit the stereotype that most people think TS are. Let them know we are everyday people. Aly PS thanks for looking at my video.

[icecoldbath]

Yeah I really hope that I can open peoples hearts and minds to our issues. Every single person counts.

[pigpen7471]

[grishno]

[icecoldbath]

I do like the killing for the beauty powers! You got me pegged.
