I just found out my best friend of over a decade is transphobic. I don't really have more to say. I'm just devastated and feeling really alone.

I recommend this video, it helped me understand how I can hopefully change some people's opinions as time goes on.

Hey, just wanna say I really appreciated that video, thanks for sharing!

It was recommended to me one day and I really hope it is something the YouTube algorithm is pushing in general and not something super personalized since I watch a number of trans content creators. I kinda want it to be seen by some people who are on the fence about all this, one can only hope.

Hey, this is a great video. I decided to watch it and it's worth it for sure even if you don't need to watch it for his intended purpose. Thanks for sharing.
