Where are you these days?

as a trans-man I'd have to agree with you, I wouldn't want to try to juggle both a family and the journey of transition at the same time....you totally didn't sound like a douche :)

WOW!!!!! your 19 and I agree its
totally in a good way :D

Eggs have to be stimulated by female hormones in large doses and fertility medicines. This meand the person cannot be taking T. The procedure runs into the tens of thousands. So while fertility may be importnat, the money for transtion is often abysmally small.

i am seriously considering freezing eggs... i need to look further into it...
it's strange to think that there would be sperm needed to complete the process.. sperm that doesn't come from me... but it could be really cool in the end. adoption is such a good option too... but to see my girlfriend pregnant with my baby... that'd be so neat.

Great perspective on everything said here, Jackie. I agree that there is no such thing as sharing things "too young" so long as you're using age-appropriate language. Most parents tell their kids things too late, & that's the real shame.
Also, as everyone else said, I thought you were older than 19 too. Though I generally think people don't give young people enough credit for being mature, thoughtful, well-spoken individuals. And you are all those things. (Also you look older. In a good way.)

Great video Jackie, as usual. I'm an FTM that has a child, in the midst of my transition. I started T in January when my son was 3 months old. And hopefully I will have top surgery before he begins to notice my chest as what "his mommy has." It is hard to think about how your child might see you, but with facial hair and teaching him to be open-minded, I think it will work out fine. It is a damper when you hit the "I need my T" stage and it comes the same time was "He needs diapers." lol

Great topic! I am also surprised you are only 19! You are so mature and thoughtful about kids! I certainly wouldn't have thought of all these points at your age. Gideon and I will be having kids in a few years we are waiting until his transition is finished. Having them now would be too much to handle! Besides, we would love our families to be involved and they are definitely not ready. Thanks for a great video!

great topic!! Im a ftm from the uk and iv notices that theres no ftms who wont to have there egg embryos frozen before starting T. So there partners can carry there egg for them etc. whats your view on this?
Great video! I agree about talking to kids about GLBT stuff when they're young. Some people are like "but I don't want them to know about sex blah blah" but it doesn't have to be a conversation about sex. Just something like some boys love other boys and some girls love other girls and that's ok. I saw a documentary called Transparent a few years ago and one of the ftm guys explained it to his kids like "some girls are born with boy hearts and some boys are born with girl hearts."
