December 16, 2011: 2 Weeks on Testosterone

I'm Owen Middleton and I'm a Transgender trying to spread education about gender identity, gender expression, physicality, sexuality and commitment. I've been on testosterone for two weeks.

Why do you say 'queer identified people?' are you a lesbian? That razor is way too aggressive. Start with a single blade and always shave in the same direction (down) that way hair growth will all grow in the same direction and look better. Lots of guys shave both down and up and then their stubble grows down and up.

Kisses from Paris. Xxo

@jacktheincredible01 I'm a troll and I'm not actually that stupid. I'm just saying that no matter what is done to the female or male body, it cannot become the opposite of what it is. There is much, much more to being a male than just endocrine manipulation and plastic surgery. The same applies to being a female. I'm not going to address the spiritual issues going on here; I simple don't have the time or patience to discuss it via comment posts. I hope you had a Merry Christmas! 8D

Hey Owen, I just want to tell you that you are an immensely brave man. I can't say I completely understand being transgender, but I don't have to understand everything to support you as you become (outwardly) who you are (inwardly). Thank you for being willing to undergo this usually very private process under the public eye, as I hope that will help with awareness, which is the first step to acceptance.

I came to your videos through a link from Huffington Post and I'm glad I did. I'm a gay (biological) male, but we also have to keep explaining to people the differences between sexuality and gender. (It never ends.) I really wish you all the best in your transition. Oh, and I loved the "T-party" bit.

[llachow]

good on you! stay strong, keep sharing. love the "T-party" meme...

[ttuppz]

Yay for Owen! I think this is so cool of him. He's helping by sharing his journey and story with the world. Other guys and girls like him can see that they're not alone and sometimes that can be a very important thing indeed. GO OWEN!!!
