I still feel a bit thick for not really figuring out what I was until nearly 30. I felt a connection to the LGB community for some time, but because I didn't seem to fall in those categories, I didn't think I fit. Finally separating gender from sexuality in my head is what slid the pieces in place.

I think it's great that there are so many young people who feel confident and safe enough to come out at a young age, but it does make me feel a bit ancient!

I can relate to so much of what you're saying, man. Thanks for sharing! :)

I knew when I was really young that I was a boy. But society (and my mother and sister ESPECIALLY) fought against me so hard I became compliant. Basically passive without knowing I was being pressured to be someone I wasn't. I just sort of twisted my thoughts to think I was a girl and just had to suck it up and accept it. I always wished to be a boy though... So it's not always completely "I Know It" or "I Don't Know". It's somewhere in between too.

Thanks for the video! I also didn't always know. I mean I always felt "off", but I felt that way since I was little. I didn't know any different so in a way it just became they were things were. I didn't know (or *want* to know maybe?) what it meant. It wasn't until sometime last year that I seriously started to question my gender. I've known that I'm trans for two months, and it's like everything that I didn't understand before has fallen into place now. Huuuuge relief. But also insanely scary!

i just mean, my dog was really special. and obviously when i hear your name, it reminds me of my friend. and i'm glad it's you who reminds me of him.

thanks for making this video xander, really loved it.

so my name is alex, which i like, i don't much care of alexander, but i LOVE xander and might have given thought to it except i had a great dane named zander and he was my best friend. he was fawn color & just regal and playful, his best friends where little kitties and he'd dance when i played guitar. we had to put him down because his health suffered when he was abused by his previous owners, so obviouslyi cant name myself after my dog.

I've been thinking that I couldn't possibly be Trans because I never had a defining moment as a little kid saying "Something's missing down there" but at the same time I couldn't shake away the possibility. Thanks a lot for this video, it's really put my mind at ease.

great job! good video!

Well, it's a myth for some people. I knew when I was really young...I knew i was a boy. I just didn't know what the term was for it.
