At one point he mentions he had to transition into understanding me as male-- and it's true, we trans people don't really transition, cuz we always know, it's the people around us...

  • Thanks for the video! It was really cool! Only I would have found it even better if you had looked at him while talking rather than in the camera... It would be more natural, I think...

  • @Doridantoni You are right! I got a little weirded out seeing my own face like that. I was lacking a tripod, and the space where it was shot had limited options, but I'll keep your great advice in mind, thank you!

  • What a GREAT VIDEO!!!

  • @Chianna328 Thank you so much.

  • ok, so i want to hang out w/ you, ashley AND this anonymous awesome guy...whose beard i deeply envy! i agree w/ him about conservative people. i live in cincinnati (super conservative) & have been able to navigate being trans surprisingly well, & the town where i grew up, & the nearby "city," in the heart of appalachia, well, people just accept me for me, whether they truly understand it or not. a big part of it is how you present yourself to others, & you have that down! cont...

  • @Zedie36 I'd love it if we could all hang out!

  • @911Some1 Isn't that such a great reaction?! It's like curiosity and fascination-- how I imagine it should be, instead of fear or disgust. I wonder whether more people think this way than I am aware of.

  • Great Video :]

    I love your interview videos.

  • he looks like a young hugh laurie.

  • Hey Forest - totally agree with you that the rest of the world has to transition. I'm going through this at the moment - watching people digest and adjust. Saying that, I realise I am making a transition of sorts - from putting up and shutting up to actually being open and being myself. Thankfully! :)

  • Nice interview, Forest! That's an interesting approach, telling everybody at the same time.

  • Your old co-worker seems really cool. Glad you have had positive experiences in the past. I hope when you come out to your new coworkers that it goes just as well.  :-)
