﻿1
00:00:00,023 --> 00:00:02,295
Jazz: Previously on "I Am Jazz"...

2
00:00:02,669 --> 00:00:03,936
Sander: I never see
you really hanging out

3
00:00:03,961 --> 00:00:05,393
with, like, Brooke or Taylor anymore.

4
00:00:05,395 --> 00:00:06,894
I mean, I do sometimes,

5
00:00:06,896 --> 00:00:09,164
but we're just not as close anymore.

6
00:00:09,531 --> 00:00:11,399
Like, you don't care about the drama,

7
00:00:11,401 --> 00:00:13,000
so when I did have
something important to say,

8
00:00:13,002 --> 00:00:14,734
I just got used to not telling you.

9
00:00:14,736 --> 00:00:15,936
Girl: Yeah.

10
00:00:15,938 --> 00:00:19,625
Your blocker implant has
pretty much run its course.

11
00:00:19,650 --> 00:00:21,041
The best move here

12
00:00:21,043 --> 00:00:23,677
would be to do a surgery
to replace the implants.

13
00:00:23,679 --> 00:00:25,012
It's gonna cost a fortune

14
00:00:25,014 --> 00:00:27,247
if we have to do the
T-blocker surgery here,

15
00:00:27,249 --> 00:00:30,984
so I'd rather do it at the
L.A. Children's Hospital.

16
00:00:30,986 --> 00:00:32,986
There are some risks
to general anesthesia.

17
00:00:32,988 --> 00:00:36,089
Jeanette: I'm nervous about the
surgery with general anesthesia.

18
00:00:36,091 --> 00:00:37,457
Every mother's worst fear is like,

19
00:00:37,459 --> 00:00:39,701
[gasps] "What if they
don't wake up afterwards?"

20
00:00:40,362 --> 00:00:41,694
- Love you.
- All right, bye.

21
00:00:41,696 --> 00:00:43,796
- Take good care of her.
- Love you all.

22
00:00:46,367 --> 00:00:48,367
Jazz: And tonight on "I Am Jazz"...

23
00:00:48,369 --> 00:00:51,236
Nobody wants to see their child
in a hospital for any reason.

24
00:00:51,238 --> 00:00:53,372
Sander: Do you think it's been
taking longer than it should?

25
00:00:53,506 --> 00:00:54,926
I've never seen one
of these get infected,

26
00:00:54,951 --> 00:00:57,385
but if the skin around it
starts turning really red,

27
00:00:57,387 --> 00:00:59,587
that would be something that
I would want to know about.

28
00:00:59,589 --> 00:01:00,955
Let me see your arm. It's
red up there, as well.

29
00:01:00,957 --> 00:01:02,690
That looks even worse than ever.

30
00:01:02,692 --> 00:01:04,692
Jeanette: Are we gonna have
to take the implant out?

31
00:01:04,716 --> 00:01:07,984
Please, please let
that be the last resort.

32
00:01:07,986 --> 00:01:11,020
Jazz: 15 years ago, I was
assigned male at birth,

33
00:01:11,022 --> 00:01:13,315
but inside, I always knew I was a girl.

34
00:01:13,340 --> 00:01:15,965
I have a girl brain and a boy body.

35
00:01:15,990 --> 00:01:18,028
Being transgender hasn't been easy.

36
00:01:18,036 --> 00:01:19,568
You already have some breast shape.

37
00:01:19,570 --> 00:01:20,801
We just have to make it better.

38
00:01:20,803 --> 00:01:22,703
I get shy talking to gorgeous girls.

39
00:01:22,706 --> 00:01:23,539
Wait, what?

40
00:01:23,541 --> 00:01:25,395
But it's made me who I am.

41
00:01:26,310 --> 00:01:28,372
I am Jazz.

42
00:01:28,397 --> 00:01:31,099

43
00:01:37,021 --> 00:01:38,278
Woman: All right, just gonna give you

44
00:01:38,294 --> 00:01:40,636
a little bit of oxygen to breathe, okay?

45
00:01:40,661 --> 00:01:42,661
It smells like grape. [Chuckles]

46
00:01:42,663 --> 00:01:44,128
Oh, it smells like grape.

47
00:01:44,130 --> 00:01:45,567
All right, and you'll
start to feel sleepy here

48
00:01:45,592 --> 00:01:47,860
in just a few seconds, okay?

49
00:01:48,235 --> 00:01:49,634
Christopher: So, the
procedure we're doing is

50
00:01:49,636 --> 00:01:52,070
the removal and reinsertion
of a supprelin implant

51
00:01:52,072 --> 00:01:53,551
on the left-hand side.

52
00:01:54,066 --> 00:01:55,153
Everyone agrees?

53
00:01:55,178 --> 00:01:57,145
- Agree.
- Okay.

54
00:01:57,910 --> 00:02:00,077
I feel, like, terrible right now.

55
00:02:00,079 --> 00:02:01,864
- Why's that?
- My stomach hurts.

56
00:02:01,889 --> 00:02:04,757
I am exhausted, and I'm worried,

57
00:02:04,771 --> 00:02:06,904
and my stomach is in knots.

58
00:02:06,906 --> 00:02:08,239
This has been extremely hard on me.

59
00:02:08,241 --> 00:02:09,541
She's my baby.

60
00:02:09,543 --> 00:02:11,008
Nobody wants to see their child

61
00:02:11,010 --> 00:02:12,609
in a hospital for any reason.

62
00:02:12,611 --> 00:02:14,611
And I know this is to help her,

63
00:02:14,613 --> 00:02:16,113
but it's still... it shouldn't be.

64
00:02:16,115 --> 00:02:18,348
You know, she should've
been born in the right body.

65
00:02:19,848 --> 00:02:21,723
_

66
00:02:21,747 --> 00:02:23,747
_

67
00:02:25,391 --> 00:02:27,124
And they're a little bit fragile.

68
00:02:27,126 --> 00:02:29,459
They tend to break off
if you're not careful,

69
00:02:29,461 --> 00:02:31,360
so I don't want to break it in half.

70
00:02:31,362 --> 00:02:33,731
I'm trying to be gentle with it.

71
00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:35,663
Griffen: If something goes wrong,

72
00:02:35,688 --> 00:02:37,106
we don't have any control over it.

73
00:02:37,239 --> 00:02:38,304
We can't do anything about it.

74
00:02:38,306 --> 00:02:39,372
Well, let's hope nothing goes wrong.

75
00:02:39,380 --> 00:02:40,580
Griffen: I just keep checking the clock,

76
00:02:40,582 --> 00:02:41,547
checking the door,

77
00:02:41,549 --> 00:02:42,515
waiting for her to come out,

78
00:02:42,517 --> 00:02:44,167
because I want to know she's okay.

79
00:02:44,192 --> 00:02:46,097
These are supposed to
just release and come out,

80
00:02:46,122 --> 00:02:48,019
but they don't often
release and come out.

81
00:02:48,044 --> 00:02:50,345
Man: That would be too easy. Right.

82
00:02:50,347 --> 00:02:53,262
So I have to kind of
take it piece by piece.

83
00:02:56,396 --> 00:02:58,262
- How long has it been?
- I've been watching the clock.

84
00:02:58,264 --> 00:03:00,931
I think 20 minutes since we left her.

85
00:03:03,353 --> 00:03:05,686
Christopher: Okay. All right.

86
00:03:05,976 --> 00:03:08,637
_

87
00:03:08,661 --> 00:03:09,622
_

88
00:03:09,646 --> 00:03:12,747
_

89
00:03:13,505 --> 00:03:15,402
You think it's been taking
longer than it should?

90
00:03:15,427 --> 00:03:16,426
Greg: Waiting, you know?

91
00:03:16,427 --> 00:03:17,359
That's, like, a weird feeling...

92
00:03:17,361 --> 00:03:18,795
The waiting is the hardest part.

93
00:03:18,797 --> 00:03:21,101
Waiting for somebody to come
out of the operating room.

94
00:03:21,138 --> 00:03:23,605
Time is going so slow right now.

95
00:03:23,607 --> 00:03:25,540
I feel like I've been here
an hour waiting for her.

96
00:03:25,542 --> 00:03:26,742
I know it hasn't been,

97
00:03:26,744 --> 00:03:29,443
but I have never felt
time go by this slowly.

98
00:03:33,779 --> 00:03:35,779
_

99
00:03:36,569 --> 00:03:37,856
_

100
00:03:37,881 --> 00:03:39,364
_

101
00:03:45,113 --> 00:03:47,113
_

102
00:03:47,897 --> 00:03:50,331
Christopher: So, this has the
implant loaded in it, right?

103
00:03:50,355 --> 00:03:52,521
_

104
00:03:57,639 --> 00:03:59,672
- All right, we are done.
- Okay.

105
00:04:01,303 --> 00:04:02,175
Christopher: Everything went fine.

106
00:04:02,177 --> 00:04:05,241
The implant broke about
that far from the end,

107
00:04:05,853 --> 00:04:07,620
but I got both ends out.

108
00:04:07,716 --> 00:04:09,215
I've never seen one
of these get infected,

109
00:04:09,217 --> 00:04:11,350
but if the skin around it
starts turning really red,

110
00:04:11,352 --> 00:04:12,984
that would be something that
I would want to know about.

111
00:04:12,986 --> 00:04:14,219
You can always take a picture of it

112
00:04:14,221 --> 00:04:15,457
- and e-mail that to me.
- Oh, okay, great. Great idea.

113
00:04:15,482 --> 00:04:16,755
That works out pretty well sometimes,

114
00:04:16,757 --> 00:04:18,857
especially if you're
not just down the road.

115
00:04:18,859 --> 00:04:20,025
- Right.
- [Chuckles]

116
00:04:21,862 --> 00:04:23,129
There she is.

117
00:04:26,133 --> 00:04:28,966
- She's snoring.
- She's totally asleep right now.

118
00:04:28,968 --> 00:04:30,000
Woman: [Chuckles]

119
00:04:30,002 --> 00:04:31,600
I don't like seeing her like that.

120
00:04:32,672 --> 00:04:35,139
Greg: I'd rather not see
my kid like this, you know?

121
00:04:35,141 --> 00:04:36,240
I know.

122
00:04:36,242 --> 00:04:37,990
Do you see why I wanted to be here

123
00:04:38,015 --> 00:04:39,848
- when she was like this.
- Yeah.

124
00:04:39,873 --> 00:04:41,278
'Cause when she comes out of this,

125
00:04:41,280 --> 00:04:42,915
she's in a deep state.

126
00:04:43,483 --> 00:04:45,389
The first person I want her to see

127
00:04:45,414 --> 00:04:47,515
is her mom and her dad.

128
00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:49,999
I'll be happy when I see
her awake and smiling.

129
00:04:50,001 --> 00:04:52,603
I'm hoping that she's not
sad or groggy or nauseous,

130
00:04:52,605 --> 00:04:54,928
'cause you can feel bad after
you come out of anesthesia,

131
00:04:54,953 --> 00:04:58,587
so I want her to come out
feeling like, "I'm good."

132
00:04:59,077 --> 00:05:00,373
- Hi!
- Oh.

133
00:05:00,912 --> 00:05:02,245
- Hey.
- Good morning.

134
00:05:02,247 --> 00:05:03,446
Sander: Good morning, sunshine.

135
00:05:03,448 --> 00:05:05,748
- You're all done.
- Hi, baby.

136
00:05:05,750 --> 00:05:07,450
You had your surgery.

137
00:05:07,452 --> 00:05:08,317
Whoa.

138
00:05:08,319 --> 00:05:09,652
- [Laughter]
- Yeah, it's done.

139
00:05:09,654 --> 00:05:10,486
You did so good.

140
00:05:10,488 --> 00:05:11,897
[Speaking indistinctly]

141
00:05:12,193 --> 00:05:13,088
What?

142
00:05:13,090 --> 00:05:15,391
[Laughter]

143
00:05:15,393 --> 00:05:17,025
- What did she say?
- She said, "rur rur rur rur."

144
00:05:17,027 --> 00:05:18,627
Get this up just a tiny bit.

145
00:05:18,629 --> 00:05:20,332
Jeanette: Jazz opens her eyes,

146
00:05:20,357 --> 00:05:21,630
and it's not like...

147
00:05:21,965 --> 00:05:23,431
It's like...

148
00:05:23,433 --> 00:05:24,666
- Whoa!
- And then when she speaks,

149
00:05:24,668 --> 00:05:26,368
it's, like, in tongue or something.

150
00:05:26,370 --> 00:05:28,303
- How you doing, baby?
- How do you feel?

151
00:05:28,305 --> 00:05:29,537
What happened?

152
00:05:29,539 --> 00:05:31,573
You had your surgery, baby.

153
00:05:31,575 --> 00:05:32,707
You're done.

154
00:05:32,709 --> 00:05:34,075
- I'm gonna lift your head up.
- You're all done.

155
00:05:34,077 --> 00:05:35,268
Sander: Look, you got a heart.

156
00:05:35,811 --> 00:05:38,365
So, they put some numbing
medicine here, too, okay?

157
00:05:38,390 --> 00:05:40,224
- So...
- Oh, it's a heart.

158
00:05:40,249 --> 00:05:41,959
[Laughter]

159
00:05:41,984 --> 00:05:43,150
Like, "okay, she's awake,

160
00:05:43,152 --> 00:05:45,085
she's acting weird, but Jazz is weird."

161
00:05:45,087 --> 00:05:46,420
Are you uncomfortable?

162
00:05:46,746 --> 00:05:49,055

My friend's kid at his high school,

so many kids have been
coming out as trans.

She's been hanging out less and less

353
00:12:21,583 --> 00:12:24,216
with her old friends from middle
school, and it concerns me,

because Jazz is not really
great about making new friends.

00:21:06,344 --> 00:21:08,177
Some of them are support
groups for each other.

616
00:21:08,179 --> 00:21:09,745
You can form relationships with people

617
00:21:09,747 --> 00:21:12,553
that kind of can relate to
what you're going through.

624
00:21:25,629 --> 00:21:28,163
I think the fact that
she's had depression

625
00:21:28,165 --> 00:21:29,597
scares them off.

626

00:22:20,180 --> 00:22:21,979
and the rash has gotten worse.

646
00:22:21,981 --> 00:22:23,914
What's this over here? What's all that?

647
00:22:23,916 --> 00:22:25,364
It spread up there, as well.

648
00:22:25,389 --> 00:22:27,017
That looks even worse than ever.

649
00:22:27,019 --> 00:22:29,620
The rash is really kind
of disturbing to look at.

650
00:22:29,622 --> 00:22:32,289
It looks like a giant
swarm of bees attacked me,

651
00:22:32,291 --> 00:22:33,957
and it's really disgusting.

652
00:22:33,959 --> 00:22:35,359
I'm concerned that your body's

653
00:22:35,361 --> 00:22:37,256
having some kind of
reaction to the implant.

654
00:22:37,796 --> 00:22:39,462
We thought at first it was
the little bandage thing.

655
00:22:39,464 --> 00:22:40,496
- Yeah.
- But it's not that.

656
00:22:40,498 --> 00:22:41,698
How do we know it's not that?

657
00:22:41,700 --> 00:22:42,565
Give me your arm.

658
00:22:43,401 --> 00:22:45,114
- Was the band-aid here?
- No.

659
00:22:45,139 --> 00:22:45,968
Jeanette: Oh, my god.

660
00:22:45,970 --> 00:22:47,637
What if we have to take the implant out?

661
00:22:47,639 --> 00:22:49,405
The implications of that are terrible.

662
00:22:49,407 --> 00:22:50,973
She'll start going through male puberty.

663
00:22:50,975 --> 00:22:53,276
They have to put her
on a lot more estrogen

664
00:22:53,278 --> 00:22:55,378
if we have to rip it out of her arm.

665
00:22:55,380 --> 00:22:56,545
I am just, like, praying,

666
00:22:56,547 --> 00:22:58,827
"please, please let
that not be the case."

667
00:22:58,852 --> 00:23:00,303
- That's just so bad.
- Yeah, but...

668
00:23:00,328 --> 00:23:02,294
- No! Don't! Don't!
- Sorry. It's so flaky.

669
00:23:02,319 --> 00:23:04,419
I'm gonna call the doctor.
I'm gonna call Dad, Grandpa.

670
00:23:04,421 --> 00:23:05,721
We're gonna get this settled.

671
00:23:05,723 --> 00:23:07,606
- We're gonna fix this, okay?
- Okay.

672
00:23:07,631 --> 00:23:09,569
'Cause we don't have
anything else to worry about.

673
00:23:14,538 --> 00:23:16,169
- Jazz?
- What?

674
00:23:16,194 --> 00:23:18,123
Jeanette: Can you come down, please?

675
00:23:18,140 --> 00:23:20,574
I want to call Dr. Olson

676
00:23:20,576 --> 00:23:23,209
and facetime her so I
can show her the rash.

677
00:23:23,211 --> 00:23:26,912
Dr. Olson oversaw Jazz
while we were in L.A.

678
00:23:26,937 --> 00:23:29,014
The rash is getting bigger,

679
00:23:29,022 --> 00:23:30,922
and I want to find out what's going on.

680
00:23:31,522 --> 00:23:32,755
- Hello.
- Hi.

681
00:23:32,780 --> 00:23:33,803
Hello.

682
00:23:33,827 --> 00:23:35,256
Hi, Jazz. Hi, Jeanette.

683
00:23:35,280 --> 00:23:37,576
So, I have our number-one patient here.

684
00:23:37,601 --> 00:23:39,200
I'm hoping that you
can see the rash live

685
00:23:39,225 --> 00:23:40,481
instead of, like, a still shot.

686
00:23:40,506 --> 00:23:41,372
Yes.

687
00:23:41,397 --> 00:23:44,260
Can you hold up your arm?

688
00:23:44,262 --> 00:23:45,295
Ugh. Yikes.

689
00:23:46,373 --> 00:23:48,732
Is it on your face or ear at all?

690
00:23:48,734 --> 00:23:50,834
- It was.
- It was on my ear.

691
00:23:50,836 --> 00:23:52,703
My biggest fear concerning this rash

692
00:23:52,705 --> 00:23:54,037
is that it is possible

693
00:23:54,039 --> 00:23:56,905
that my body could be
rejecting the implant blocker,

694
00:23:56,907 --> 00:23:58,273
and then I'll have to get it replaced,

695
00:23:58,275 --> 00:24:00,006
and I just don't want
to go through that again.

696
00:24:00,645 --> 00:24:02,611
It's only been on that one side,

697
00:24:02,613 --> 00:24:05,414
which makes me think there's
a possibility of being allergic

698
00:24:05,416 --> 00:24:07,510
to the covering or the tape

699
00:24:07,852 --> 00:24:10,816
rather than what's
in the implant itself.

700
00:24:10,930 --> 00:24:13,753
So hopefully we'll
keep this one in, then.

701
00:24:14,958 --> 00:24:16,123
I think so.

702
00:24:16,735 --> 00:24:19,559
I can send over an
electronic prescription

703
00:24:19,584 --> 00:24:21,795
for a steroid ointment

704
00:24:21,811 --> 00:24:23,778
that will at least take
some of that inflammation

705
00:24:23,780 --> 00:24:25,736
and the itching sensation down.

706
00:24:25,967 --> 00:24:28,501
Jeanette: If the steroid
cream doesn't do the trick,

707
00:24:28,503 --> 00:24:29,702
then I'm really gonna worry,

708
00:24:29,704 --> 00:24:32,571
so crossing fingers
and toes that it works.

709
00:24:32,573 --> 00:24:34,172
Dr. Olson: All right.
I'll talk to you two soon.

710
00:24:34,174 --> 00:24:35,206
All right, bye.

711
00:24:35,208 --> 00:24:36,310
Bye.

712
00:24:36,643 --> 00:24:38,910
How do I hang this up? Tink. There.

713
00:24:47,973 --> 00:24:48,963
_

714
00:24:48,988 --> 00:24:50,688
Greg: Is there anything we need
to take off the table, though,

715
00:24:50,690 --> 00:24:53,190
before we start bringing people in?

716
00:24:53,192 --> 00:24:57,194
So, we had this idea of
selling stuff in a garage sale.

717
00:24:57,196 --> 00:25:00,531
The primary reason is
to get rid of stuff.

718
00:25:00,533 --> 00:25:02,933
Getting rid of stuff
is hard for Jeanette.

719
00:25:02,935 --> 00:25:04,368
She has an attachment issue

720
00:25:04,370 --> 00:25:06,872
to pretty much everything
that we purchase.

721
00:25:07,406 --> 00:25:08,538
Wait a minute.

722
00:25:08,540 --> 00:25:09,606
What's this stuff doing over here?

723
00:25:09,608 --> 00:25:11,674
We're not selling this.

724
00:25:11,676 --> 00:25:14,076
There are certain things
I don't want to sell,

725
00:25:14,078 --> 00:25:16,196
so just let's get it over with.

726
00:25:17,949 --> 00:25:19,594
Like, who are these people?
Where'd they come from?

727
00:25:19,619 --> 00:25:20,555
I don't know.

728
00:25:21,940 --> 00:25:23,373
Oh, look, your parents are here.

729
00:25:23,454 --> 00:25:25,020
The party's here.

730
00:25:25,022 --> 00:25:26,221
Welcome back.

731
00:25:26,223 --> 00:25:30,692
The garage sale is here,
less for purpose of selling

732
00:25:30,694 --> 00:25:33,261
but more for cleaning
house, so to speak.

733
00:25:33,263 --> 00:25:36,298
Time marches on, and
the kids have to go on.

734
00:25:36,300 --> 00:25:39,567
We don't want them in the
nest forever, I would assume.

735
00:25:39,569 --> 00:25:41,869
Or<i> she</i> doesn't want
them in the nest forever.

736
00:25:41,871 --> 00:25:44,371
I think Jeanette wants
them in the nest forever.

737
00:25:44,373 --> 00:25:45,938
That's the whole point.

738
00:25:46,409 --> 00:25:47,975
What are you doing to that cat?

739
00:25:47,977 --> 00:25:49,043
- Oh, no.
- Jazz!

740
00:25:49,045 --> 00:25:51,813
And, Jazz, your rash. She's got a rash.

741
00:25:51,815 --> 00:25:53,581
It's something she's allergic to.

742
00:25:53,583 --> 00:25:55,149
In inserting the implants,

743
00:25:55,151 --> 00:25:57,083
there's different materials they use...

744
00:25:57,085 --> 00:25:58,785
adhesives and things like that.

745
00:25:58,787 --> 00:26:00,720
'Cause we're not quite
sure what she's allergic to.

746
00:26:00,722 --> 00:26:03,523
How's she feeling now that
she's had the reaction?

747
00:26:03,525 --> 00:26:05,325
Some days are good
and some days are bad.

748
00:26:05,327 --> 00:26:08,094
Like, today, she's
in a cranky, bad mood.

749
00:26:08,096 --> 00:26:09,463
She's very up and down.

750
00:26:09,465 --> 00:26:11,832
You know, for somebody that's
not having real periods,

751
00:26:11,834 --> 00:26:13,799
she's simulating it
pretty well, isn't she?

752
00:26:13,801 --> 00:26:15,568
Yeah, well, the estrogen.

753
00:26:15,570 --> 00:26:17,269
Jeanette: Surgery is a big deal,

754
00:26:17,271 --> 00:26:19,404
and her poor little body's
been through so much.

755
00:26:19,406 --> 00:26:23,542
It's just unbelievable how
the body needs to be in rhythm

756
00:26:23,544 --> 00:26:27,312
with itself, and it's
a constant struggle.

757
00:26:29,102 --> 00:26:30,482
Do you guys need any help?

758
00:26:30,484 --> 00:26:32,241
I swear that one's
worth at least 20 bucks,

759
00:26:32,266 --> 00:26:34,085
but we'll sell it to
you for like a dollar.

760
00:26:34,087 --> 00:26:35,226
I got this.

761
00:26:36,055 --> 00:26:37,254
I got this sale.

762
00:26:37,256 --> 00:26:38,923
Jeanette: [Gasps] Oh, wait a minute.

763
00:26:38,925 --> 00:26:41,125
Oh, no, no, no, no.
She's taking my stuff.

764
00:26:41,127 --> 00:26:42,660
[Chuckles]

765
00:26:42,684 --> 00:26:43,696
_

766
00:26:43,697 --> 00:26:46,230
[Chuckles]

767
00:26:46,232 --> 00:26:48,098
Oh.

768
00:26:48,100 --> 00:26:50,400
She actually saw that
they were taking her stuff

769
00:26:50,402 --> 00:26:51,867
that she wants to keep.

770
00:26:51,892 --> 00:26:53,936
Those overalls are so ugly, though.

771
00:26:54,139 --> 00:26:57,280
Like, this one and this one was
my daughter's when she was 2.

772
00:26:57,305 --> 00:26:59,275
- It was her favorite outfit.
- Oh, so we can't have that?

773
00:26:59,277 --> 00:27:01,578
No. This one is not
supposed to be for sale.

774
00:27:01,580 --> 00:27:03,679
They're, like, doing it to upset me.

775
00:27:03,681 --> 00:27:06,816
I see items out for sale
that I did not approve.

776
00:27:06,818 --> 00:27:09,118
- How did they get out there?
- I have no idea.

777
00:27:09,120 --> 00:27:10,758
It wasn't something you authorized?

778
00:27:10,783 --> 00:27:12,522
- No.
- Then why were they there?

779
00:27:12,524 --> 00:27:14,123
'Cause the kids are mean.

780
00:27:14,125 --> 00:27:16,025
Greg: This is emotional for
Mom. She's getting rid of stuff.

781
00:27:16,027 --> 00:27:18,460
Oh, my god. She's got to get
over it. This stuff is crap.

782
00:27:19,731 --> 00:27:21,366
- I can buy it now?
- Not that one.

783
00:27:21,391 --> 00:27:22,163
Not what?

784
00:27:22,165 --> 00:27:24,098
I told you guys not to
put that on the table.

785
00:27:24,100 --> 00:27:25,834
- This one?
- It keeps coming back.

786
00:27:25,836 --> 00:27:28,369
So, can we all agree that
this is not going too well?

787
00:27:30,106 --> 00:27:31,840
Getting rid of stuff represents

788
00:27:31,842 --> 00:27:34,108
that the kids are
moving out of the house,

789
00:27:34,110 --> 00:27:37,045
and she doesn't know how
to deal with that issue.

790
00:27:37,047 --> 00:27:38,946
This one we're not gonna sell.

791
00:27:38,948 --> 00:27:41,006
Because this was when
you were a cheerleader.

792
00:27:41,031 --> 00:27:43,050
It was your very first
cheerleader skirt.

793
00:27:43,052 --> 00:27:44,384
I want to remember it.

794
00:27:44,386 --> 00:27:45,686
Mom, please.

795
00:27:45,688 --> 00:27:46,720
All right.

796
00:27:46,722 --> 00:27:48,923
You don't need to be attached to that.

797
00:27:48,925 --> 00:27:49,924
Are you okay?

798
00:27:49,926 --> 00:27:51,391
Yeah, yeah.

799
00:27:51,416 --> 00:27:54,661
Whoo-hoo. She let some stuff go.

800
00:27:54,663 --> 00:27:56,429
I let it go. I let them have it.

801
00:27:57,203 --> 00:27:58,698
And I'm not gonna change.

802
00:27:58,700 --> 00:28:02,134
I'm always gonna be
sentimental, done, end of story.

803
00:28:03,104 --> 00:28:05,471
- Thanks, guys.
- Thank you.

804
00:28:05,473 --> 00:28:08,374
- We have $21.25.
- You all happy now?

805
00:28:08,376 --> 00:28:11,277
I got rid of some stuff
that I didn't want to.

806
00:28:11,279 --> 00:28:12,945
I think it's good that you parted ways

807
00:28:12,947 --> 00:28:14,874
- with some of these things.
- Thanks.

808
00:28:14,899 --> 00:28:16,561
I just don't want to part with them.

809
00:28:16,586 --> 00:28:18,859
I don't want to part with my kids.

810
00:28:20,352 --> 00:28:21,952
Ari: And the boys are leaving the house.

811
00:28:21,954 --> 00:28:23,053
Thanks. Rub it in.

812
00:28:23,055 --> 00:28:23,987
Griffin: We're gonna be gone.

813
00:28:23,989 --> 00:28:25,088
How are you gonna deal with that

814
00:28:25,090 --> 00:28:26,224
if you can't deal with the clothes?

815
00:28:26,249 --> 00:28:27,841
How are you gonna live without us?

816
00:28:32,263 --> 00:28:33,562
We understand.

817
00:28:33,564 --> 00:28:35,064
- No, you don't.
- Yes, we do.

818
00:28:35,066 --> 00:28:36,866
- Look at them.
- They're grown young men.

819
00:28:36,868 --> 00:28:37,833
They're ready to go.

820
00:28:39,503 --> 00:28:42,538
Jeanette: And the greatest
joy for me is my kids.

821
00:28:42,540 --> 00:28:44,327
[Voice breaking] Mom'ing is my job,

822
00:28:44,352 --> 00:28:46,107
and they don't need a mom anymore.

823
00:28:46,109 --> 00:28:47,508
They don't need that kind of mom.

824
00:28:47,510 --> 00:28:49,177
[Sniffles]

825
00:28:49,758 --> 00:28:51,179
Come on, guys. Give Mom love.

826
00:28:51,181 --> 00:28:52,981
They're too big. They
can't live at home.

827
00:28:52,983 --> 00:28:53,982
She needs a little love.

828
00:28:53,984 --> 00:28:55,483
You can have a twin sandwich.

829
00:28:55,485 --> 00:28:57,919
Twin sandwich. We're
still here right now, Mom.

830
00:28:57,921 --> 00:28:59,954
Yeah, I'll hold on to the money.

831
00:29:03,926 --> 00:29:05,125
Greg: Going a little fast.

832
00:29:05,127 --> 00:29:06,193
You didn't put on your blinker.

833
00:29:06,195 --> 00:29:07,360
You're too close to the curb.

834
00:29:07,362 --> 00:29:09,997
Slow down. Jazz, come
on. Stop! Hit the brake.

835
00:29:09,999 --> 00:29:12,166
[Laughing] It's so fun!

836
00:29:12,168 --> 00:29:13,233
[Giggles]

837
00:29:13,235 --> 00:29:15,736
Oh, man, this is gonna be a long lesson.

838
00:29:15,738 --> 00:29:17,149
[Horn honks] Whoo whoo!

839
00:29:23,707 --> 00:29:25,574
[Chuckles]

840
00:29:25,637 --> 00:29:26,604
Griffin: Where are you guys going?

841
00:29:26,629 --> 00:29:28,063
Jazz's driving lesson.

842
00:29:28,088 --> 00:29:29,222
Looks like<i> you're</i> driving.

843
00:29:29,247 --> 00:29:30,137
She's never driven before.

844
00:29:30,145 --> 00:29:31,712
You think I'm just gonna
let her get in the front seat

845
00:29:31,714 --> 00:29:32,980
and just drive off?

846
00:29:32,982 --> 00:29:34,314
I'm nervous to drive with Jazz

847
00:29:34,316 --> 00:29:36,448
because she's never
driven anything before.

848
00:29:36,473 --> 00:29:38,159
She's never even asked about driving.

849
00:29:38,184 --> 00:29:39,984
Jeanette: It's something
that does not appeal to her.

850
00:29:39,985 --> 00:29:41,417
[Jazz singing indistinctly in distance]

851
00:29:41,419 --> 00:29:42,207
Singing is.

852
00:29:42,232 --> 00:29:43,690
[Both laugh]

853
00:29:43,715 --> 00:29:45,114
Griffin: Her first
time driving's with you,

854
00:29:45,116 --> 00:29:46,548
yet you wouldn't drive
with us until we'd, like,

855
00:29:46,551 --> 00:29:48,284
drive around the neighborhood
with Mom like 12 times.

856
00:29:48,286 --> 00:29:50,787
I trust Jazz more
than you guys. Buh-bye.

857
00:29:50,789 --> 00:29:52,121
Bunch of clowns.

858
00:29:53,758 --> 00:29:56,425
For whatever reason, Jeanette
spends more time with Jazz,

859
00:29:56,427 --> 00:29:58,327
and I spend more time with the twins,

860
00:29:58,329 --> 00:30:01,284
so this is a great opportunity
for me to bond with my daughter.

861
00:30:01,309 --> 00:30:02,801
And I think the first
thing you need to do

862
00:30:02,809 --> 00:30:04,341
is learn some of the basics of the car,

863
00:30:04,343 --> 00:30:07,645
because I don't think
anyone's ever taught you.

864
00:30:07,647 --> 00:30:10,582
This right here... "P" is...?

865
00:30:10,607 --> 00:30:11,137
Park.

866
00:30:11,162 --> 00:30:12,394
What is "R"?

867
00:30:12,496 --> 00:30:14,317
Um... Run!

868
00:30:14,319 --> 00:30:15,596
[Both laugh]

869
00:30:15,621 --> 00:30:17,353
- Reverse.
- Reverse.

870
00:30:17,355 --> 00:30:18,889
- This is your blinker.
- Oh, okay.

871
00:30:18,891 --> 00:30:20,423
Maybe it's not your blinker.

872
00:30:20,425 --> 00:30:22,826
That's not your blinker.
That's your windshield wiper.

873
00:30:22,828 --> 00:30:23,972
All right, let's switch.

874
00:30:25,130 --> 00:30:27,029
Jazz: Now that I have
my driver's permit,

875
00:30:27,031 --> 00:30:29,231
I'm gonna be a perfectionist.

876
00:30:29,233 --> 00:30:31,400
I'm gonna ensure that
I'm a better driver

877
00:30:31,402 --> 00:30:32,835
than everyone in my family.

878
00:30:32,837 --> 00:30:34,471
[Laughs]

879

[Horn honks]

880
00:30:35,863 --> 00:30:36,839
Did I do that?

881
00:30:36,841 --> 00:30:38,144
I didn't teach you about the horn.

882
00:30:38,169 --> 00:30:40,190
[Horn honking] Whoo whoo!

883
00:30:40,215 --> 00:30:41,210
So, what is this called again?

884
00:30:41,212 --> 00:30:43,344
- The joystick? Or what?
- [Both laugh]

885
00:30:43,346 --> 00:30:46,281
Sorry. Looks like a little,
like, you know, game joystick.

886
00:30:46,283 --> 00:30:48,183
That's the last thing I wanted to hear.

887
00:30:48,185 --> 00:30:50,863
Oh, man. This is gonna be a long lesson.

888
00:30:51,254 --> 00:30:53,188
- Go forward.
- Okay.

889
00:30:53,190 --> 00:30:54,555
And now start turning the
wheel. Go slow, though.

890
00:30:54,557 --> 00:30:55,623
Right now? Start turning?

891
00:30:55,625 --> 00:30:56,825
Keep the brake on, keep the brake on.

892
00:30:56,827 --> 00:30:58,226
Turn, turn, turn.

893
00:30:58,228 --> 00:31:00,227
Now just... here, just go with me.

894
00:31:00,229 --> 00:31:01,494
- Work with me.
- Okay.

895
00:31:01,496 --> 00:31:02,807
- All right?
- I'm feeling this.

896
00:31:02,832 --> 00:31:04,235
You're doing awesome now.

897
00:31:04,676 --> 00:31:06,599
'Cause you're doing it.
I'm not doing anything.

898
00:31:06,601 --> 00:31:08,268
No, I'm not doing anything.
Now straighten it up.

899
00:31:08,270 --> 00:31:09,937
Let me see how you
straighten up the wheel.

900
00:31:09,939 --> 00:31:11,571
Straighten it. No, no, no, sto...

901
00:31:11,573 --> 00:31:12,906
You got to go like this.

902
00:31:12,908 --> 00:31:14,127
I'm sorry. I didn't know
if it was straight or not.

903
00:31:14,152 --> 00:31:15,042
There you go.

904
00:31:15,044 --> 00:31:16,776
So, I'm trying to drive, and my dad,

905
00:31:16,778 --> 00:31:18,945
he's like, "okay, you
can't do this! Raah!"

906
00:31:18,947 --> 00:31:21,247
And he just grabs the
wheel, tries to take control.

907
00:31:21,249 --> 00:31:24,183
I'm like, "Dad, I want to
be able to do it myself."

908
00:31:24,185 --> 00:31:25,617
But I understand why he's doing it.

909
00:31:25,619 --> 00:31:27,835
He's just trying to
ensure that we don't die.

910
00:31:28,923 --> 00:31:30,456
Going a little fast.

911
00:31:30,458 --> 00:31:31,690
You didn't put on your blinker.

912
00:31:31,692 --> 00:31:32,825
You're too close to the curb.

913
00:31:32,827 --> 00:31:33,792
- Slow down.
- Whee!

914
00:31:33,794 --> 00:31:35,637
Jazz, come on! Stop! Hit the brake.

915
00:31:35,662 --> 00:31:36,777
- [Laughing]
- [Tires screech]

916
00:31:36,796 --> 00:31:39,032
It's so fun! [Giggles]

917
00:31:39,739 --> 00:31:41,272
- I put it in park.
- Okay.

918
00:31:41,274 --> 00:31:42,239
[Chuckles]

919
00:31:42,241 --> 00:31:43,777
Sorry if I, like, scared you.

920
00:31:44,418 --> 00:31:45,710
This is no joke.

921
00:31:45,712 --> 00:31:47,244
We're gonna make this turn again.

922
00:31:47,269 --> 00:31:49,957
Do it slow, and be careful.

923
00:31:49,982 --> 00:31:52,077
And here we go.

924
00:31:54,629 --> 00:31:56,295
- La, la, la.
- Good.

925
00:31:56,926 --> 00:31:58,558
Straighten it out.

926
00:31:59,403 --> 00:32:02,271
- You got it. Good.
- I got this.

927
00:32:02,273 --> 00:32:03,606
Jazz: After this first driving lesson,

928
00:32:03,608 --> 00:32:05,407
I feel like it's only
gonna be a few more times

929
00:32:05,409 --> 00:32:08,043
until I actually feel
comfortable behind the wheel.

930
00:32:08,045 --> 00:32:11,046
To be honest, my dad was
actually a really good teacher.

931
00:32:11,048 --> 00:32:14,415
You know, by the end of it, I
got my driving down perfectly.

932
00:32:14,417 --> 00:32:16,451
[Laughing]

933
00:32:17,888 --> 00:32:19,013
You did good.

934
00:32:20,903 --> 00:32:21,936
I love you.

935
00:32:22,126 --> 00:32:24,159
- I'll drive from here.
- Okay.

936
00:32:34,737 --> 00:32:37,160
Jazz: Jay, you really
have muscular arms. Flex.

937
00:32:37,185 --> 00:32:38,451
- No.
- Yes.

938
00:32:38,637 --> 00:32:40,355
No, it's good.

939
00:32:40,380 --> 00:32:42,264
I'll flex. Hey, nothing!

940
00:32:42,289 --> 00:32:44,150
Girl, look at that, look at that!

941
00:32:44,175 --> 00:32:46,433
And I'm supposed to
be biologically male.

942
00:32:46,458 --> 00:32:47,790
[Laughter]

943
00:32:47,801 --> 00:32:49,435
Jazz: Casey and Jayleen are old friends,

944
00:32:49,437 --> 00:32:50,802
but they don't go to my school,

945
00:32:50,804 --> 00:32:53,038
and we don't find the time
to hang out with each other.

946
00:32:53,278 --> 00:32:55,879
I know that my mom is pushing
me to make new friends,

947
00:32:55,881 --> 00:32:59,081
but Casey and Jay are really
the only friends that I need.

948
00:32:59,083 --> 00:33:01,250
You never even told us how L.A. was.

949
00:33:01,252 --> 00:33:02,918
The surgery did go well.

950
00:33:02,920 --> 00:33:05,217
The implant in my arm did break, though.

951
00:33:05,670 --> 00:33:08,355
_

952
00:33:08,592 --> 00:33:12,027
Weren't you, like, scared when
they told you it had broken?

953
00:33:12,029 --> 00:33:14,229
I wasn't that scared
because I was in the O.R.,

954
00:33:14,231 --> 00:33:16,063
and if something goes
wrong, they could fix it,

955
00:33:16,065 --> 00:33:18,299
so they were able to get it
out, and they put the new one in,

956
00:33:18,301 --> 00:33:19,466
and everything went smoothly.

957
00:33:19,468 --> 00:33:22,169
But the only bad thing
that happened was the rash.

958
00:33:22,171 --> 00:33:24,605
I sent you guys pictures.
It was, like, boiling up.

959
00:33:24,607 --> 00:33:26,340
And it was blistering and it was red.

960
00:33:26,342 --> 00:33:27,574
It was really itchy.

961
00:33:27,576 --> 00:33:30,820
But I think things are
finally starting to get better.

962
00:33:31,254 --> 00:33:34,881
It took me a while to understand
what being transgender was.

963
00:33:34,883 --> 00:33:36,216
I'm sure it's tough for her

964
00:33:36,218 --> 00:33:38,144
'cause she has to overcome
different obstacles.

965
00:33:38,160 --> 00:33:41,754
But she's a strong girl, and
I love her for who she is.

966
00:33:42,430 --> 00:33:43,897
So, has anything interesting happened,

967
00:33:43,899 --> 00:33:45,765
like, since you got back from L.A.?

968
00:33:45,894 --> 00:33:47,284
There's this one thing.

969
00:33:47,309 --> 00:33:49,503
My mom told me there's a
lot of transgender people

970
00:33:49,528 --> 00:33:51,927
in the community, and they
all go to this one school.

971
00:33:51,929 --> 00:33:52,949
Really?

972
00:33:52,973 --> 00:33:54,805
She's really pushing me to go, like,

973
00:33:54,807 --> 00:33:56,894
one of their GSA meetings or something.

974
00:33:57,433 --> 00:33:58,809
I think that's such a
coincidence how, like,

975
00:33:58,811 --> 00:34:00,511
a lot of them ended up at this school.

976
00:34:00,513 --> 00:34:02,304
A good opportunity to meet people.

977
00:34:03,083 --> 00:34:04,048
I don't know.

978
00:34:04,050 --> 00:34:05,516
- It'll be good for you.
- Yeah.

979
00:34:05,518 --> 00:34:07,250
But even though they are transgender,

980
00:34:07,252 --> 00:34:09,319
that's just, like, one
thing that we can relate to.

981
00:34:09,321 --> 00:34:10,653
It doesn't mean we're automatically

982
00:34:10,655 --> 00:34:12,017
gonna be best friends.

983
00:34:12,239 --> 00:34:14,673
You know, my mom thinks
that if they're transgender

984
00:34:14,675 --> 00:34:15,941
and I'm transgender

985
00:34:15,943 --> 00:34:18,376
that we're automatically
gonna be compatible,

986
00:34:18,378 --> 00:34:19,978
but it doesn't really work that way.

987
00:34:19,980 --> 00:34:22,848
Everyone's different,
transgender or not.

988
00:34:22,850 --> 00:34:24,081
Do you think it's gonna
be, like, a little weird

989
00:34:24,083 --> 00:34:25,917
having to meet all these new kids?

990
00:34:25,919 --> 00:34:29,166
Um, I don't know. It
definitely is a little weird.

991
00:34:29,191 --> 00:34:30,955
'Cause you guys know I've become distant

992
00:34:30,957 --> 00:34:32,768
with my friends at school.

993
00:34:33,159 --> 00:34:35,746
So, what exactly happened
with your friends at school?

994
00:34:35,771 --> 00:34:38,271
Um, we've just kind of become distant.

995
00:34:38,564 --> 00:34:40,264
We're not talking as much,

996
00:34:40,266 --> 00:34:41,932
and I really have no one at school.

997
00:34:41,934 --> 00:34:44,118
Like, I'm silent every day.

998
00:34:44,803 --> 00:34:46,236
- You have us.
- Yeah.

999
00:34:46,238 --> 00:34:48,038
And I think this thing
that you're gonna go to

1000
00:34:48,040 --> 00:34:50,040
to meet all those kids is gonna be good.

1001
00:34:50,042 --> 00:34:52,642
There's, like, a certain
unity with all of you, so...

1002
00:34:52,644 --> 00:34:53,776
Like, when it comes
to being transgender.

1003

she should allow me

to meet people on my own accord

all over again? Yes.

1037

And I really don't feel like doing that.

1038
00:36:17,750 --> 00:36:20,218
Unfortunately, she's
just in a nasty mood.

You never know what's gonna trigger her.

could be the hormones.

Jazz: Now that we're
here for this GSA meeting,

1059
00:37:18,051 --> 00:37:19,951
I'm just gonna make the most of it.

1060
00:37:19,953 --> 00:37:21,586
Who wants to share a story first?

1061
00:37:24,457 --> 00:37:26,056
So let me ask you a question...

1062
00:37:26,058 --> 00:37:29,348
on our panel, we have
female-to-male transitions.

1063
00:37:29,371 --> 00:37:33,941
Why do you think that is that
we don't have any male-to-female?

1064
00:37:34,223 --> 00:37:39,661
Most M2Fs are afraid,
because you always hear about,

1065
00:37:39,663 --> 00:37:41,796
like, trans women getting murdered.

1066
00:37:41,798 --> 00:37:44,426
And you don't really hear
about trans men getting murdered

1067
00:37:44,451 --> 00:37:47,190
because femininity is looked down upon.

1068
00:37:47,215 --> 00:37:49,169
Didn't you used to go to my school?

1069
00:37:49,171 --> 00:37:52,138
I went there until my 8th grade year,

1070
00:37:52,140 --> 00:37:53,774
but I left because I didn't have, like,

1071
00:37:53,776 --> 00:37:55,308
the greatest experience.

1072
00:37:55,310 --> 00:37:57,177
Yeah, with your friends and all that.

1073
00:37:57,441 --> 00:37:58,526
You left me alone.

1074
00:37:58,551 --> 00:38:01,137
I'm sorry. You could
always come to my school.

1075
00:38:01,848 --> 00:38:03,835
Yeah, that's a possibility.

1076
00:38:03,837 --> 00:38:04,676
I don't know.

1077
00:38:04,746 --> 00:38:07,137
What happened was, there
was a couple of girls that,

1078
00:38:07,145 --> 00:38:08,545
when I came out as a lesbian...

1079
00:38:08,548 --> 00:38:10,214
I hadn't come out as trans yet...

1080
00:38:10,216 --> 00:38:12,316
they thought that I
was interested in them,

1081
00:38:12,318 --> 00:38:15,477
and I wasn't, but they
kind of excluded me,

1082
00:38:15,502 --> 00:38:17,431
and I felt very alone.

1083
00:38:18,559 --> 00:38:19,902
Hi. I'm Alex.

1084
00:38:20,575 --> 00:38:23,081
I only took two people
that I knew with me

1085
00:38:23,106 --> 00:38:25,082
from middle school to high school.

1086
00:38:25,418 --> 00:38:27,218
One girl just wouldn't accept me,

1087
00:38:27,220 --> 00:38:29,087
and she kept telling
other people that, like,

1088
00:38:29,089 --> 00:38:31,729
I wasn't a boy and,
like, that wasn't my name.

1089
00:38:31,754 --> 00:38:32,857
She was a nice person.

1090
00:38:32,859 --> 00:38:35,125
Like, I used to be really
good friends with her,

1091
00:38:35,127 --> 00:38:36,493
and I... I just...

1092
00:38:36,495 --> 00:38:38,395
it's sad that I had to, like, lose her.

1093
00:38:38,397 --> 00:38:39,384
Yeah.

1094
00:38:40,165 --> 00:38:41,599
There was this one situation

1095
00:38:41,601 --> 00:38:43,467
where I had become close with this girl,

1096
00:38:43,469 --> 00:38:46,558
and it was time for me to tell
her that I was transgender.

1097
00:38:47,139 --> 00:38:50,140
And based on her religion,
she decided not to accept me,

1098
00:38:50,142 --> 00:38:53,732
and we had to start completely
not talking to each other.

1099
00:38:54,223 --> 00:38:55,812
Jazz: You know, being transgender kids,

1100
00:38:55,814 --> 00:38:57,880
we've had similar experiences,

1101
00:38:57,882 --> 00:39:00,883
like discrimination
and the loss of friends.

1102
00:39:00,885 --> 00:39:02,685
You know, high school is really hard.

1103
00:39:02,687 --> 00:39:06,089
Kids are always selfish and
worried about themselves,

1104
00:39:06,091 --> 00:39:08,123
and we're all trying
to figure each other out

1105
00:39:08,125 --> 00:39:11,644
and ourselves out, and it really
is difficult to be a teenager,

1106
00:39:11,669 --> 00:39:14,970
and being transgender on top of
that makes it that much harder.

1107
00:39:15,132 --> 00:39:16,230
Lucas: I had a lot of
people come up to me

1108
00:39:16,255 --> 00:39:18,577
that actually didn't like
me before I transitioned

1109
00:39:18,602 --> 00:39:19,823
come up to me and
say, like, "oh, my god.

1110
00:39:19,848 --> 00:39:20,816
Now that you're trans,

1111
00:39:20,821 --> 00:39:22,801
I want to be, like,
best friends with you."

1112
00:39:22,832 --> 00:39:24,998
Like, "I've never had
a trans friend before."

1113
00:39:25,000 --> 00:39:27,099
And it's like, "well, you
still don't," but, um...

1114
00:39:27,102 --> 00:39:28,301
[Laughter]

1115
00:39:28,303 --> 00:39:29,703
Has anything like that
ever happened to you,

1116
00:39:29,705 --> 00:39:31,705
like somebody kind of fake-friends you

1117
00:39:31,707 --> 00:39:33,340
just because of the experience?

1118
00:39:33,342 --> 00:39:36,176
There's been people like that
who have said similar things

1119
00:39:36,178 --> 00:39:38,245
like, "wow. It's so cool
that you're inspiring people.

1120
00:39:38,247 --> 00:39:39,647
We should be best friends."

1121
00:39:39,649 --> 00:39:41,981
And then you'll talk more with them,

1122
00:39:41,983 --> 00:39:44,150
and you'll realize that
they want to be your friend

1123
00:39:44,152 --> 00:39:47,858
for the wrong reason, and
it's not okay that way.

1124
00:39:48,523 --> 00:39:51,323
Dating as a trans person was hard

1125
00:39:51,325 --> 00:39:53,426
because I had someone
that I was interested in

1126
00:39:53,428 --> 00:39:55,061
and was also interested in me

1127
00:39:55,063 --> 00:39:57,112
that told me that they
couldn't because I was trans.

1128
00:39:57,137 --> 00:39:58,864
They didn't want to go to prom with me

1129
00:39:58,866 --> 00:40:01,199
because of how their
parents would think.

1130
00:40:01,201 --> 00:40:04,036
I haven't really delved into
the world of dating that much.

1131
00:40:04,038 --> 00:40:06,605
I'm still, like, shy
and stuff, but, um...

1132
00:40:06,607 --> 00:40:08,707
She's not really shy normally, though.

1133
00:40:08,686 --> 00:40:10,388
- [Laughter]
- Well, when it comes to dating.

1134
00:40:10,412 --> 00:40:13,292
But I definitely think
that's unfair to you

1135
00:40:13,317 --> 00:40:14,584
because they should be looking at you

1136
00:40:14,586 --> 00:40:15,684
for who you are on the inside,

1137
00:40:15,686 --> 00:40:17,519
and I know that one day, I have hope

1138
00:40:17,521 --> 00:40:19,754
that I'll find someone who
just loves and accepts me

1139
00:40:19,756 --> 00:40:22,290
for who I am and I can
love and accept, as well,

1140
00:40:22,292 --> 00:40:25,066
and I hope all of you find
someone like that, so...

1141
00:40:25,091 --> 00:40:26,757
Yeah, cool. Thank you.

1142
00:40:27,355 --> 00:40:29,332
I'm the president of
my school's GSA now.

1143
00:40:29,357 --> 00:40:31,605
- Ooh, ooh!
- Yay.

1144
00:40:31,635 --> 00:40:33,378
She's the president, so you
guys have to do field trips.

1145
00:40:33,403 --> 00:40:35,183
Well, next year I'll be the president.

1146
00:40:35,208 --> 00:40:36,105
Whatever.

1147
00:40:36,130 --> 00:40:39,131
We can hook up, do some
fun activities together.

1148
00:40:39,514 --> 00:40:40,538
Yeah.

1149
00:40:40,563 --> 00:40:41,973
[Laughter]

1150
00:40:42,012 --> 00:40:43,544
No, I'm really thankful to my mom

1151
00:40:43,546 --> 00:40:45,637
for pushing me to go to this meeting.

1152
00:40:45,662 --> 00:40:49,393
I definitely wasn't fully
on board to go at first.

1153
00:40:49,418 --> 00:40:50,984
I was just kind of like, "eh, whatever."

1154
00:40:50,986 --> 00:40:52,636
Okay, we're doing a hug line.

1155
00:40:52,661 --> 00:40:54,028
- So nice to meet you.
- Nice to meet you.

1156
00:40:54,030 --> 00:40:56,663
- Really nice to meet you.
- Good luck with everything.

1157
00:40:56,665 --> 00:40:59,058
Jazz: But I definitely
thought they were cool kids,

1158
00:40:59,075 --> 00:41:01,485
and maybe we could be
friends, but I don't know.

1159
00:41:01,487 --> 00:41:03,253
I don't really want
to try to make friends.

1160
00:41:03,254 --> 00:41:04,897
I just kind of want it to happen.

1161
00:41:05,724 --> 00:41:08,557
Jeanette: Overall, I think that
the GSA meeting went pretty well.

1162
00:41:08,559 --> 00:41:10,559
I definitely think, as a parent,

1163
00:41:10,561 --> 00:41:13,395
that I should keep pushing
Jazz to put herself out there

1164
00:41:13,397 --> 00:41:15,197
and be in more social situations.

1165
00:41:15,199 --> 00:41:16,565
I worry about her.

1166
00:41:16,567 --> 00:41:19,201
We're social beings, and
being alone in your room,

1167
00:41:19,203 --> 00:41:21,403
hour after hour, day after day,

1168
00:41:21,405 --> 00:41:23,987
it's just not the way
to go through life.

1169
00:41:24,874 --> 00:41:27,686
She needs to learn how
to navigate the world.

1170
00:41:31,047 --> 00:41:33,247
Jazz: Next time on "I Am Jazz"...

1171
00:41:33,249 --> 00:41:35,917
Noelle: I'm really excited to
take Jazz to Gender Bender tonight

1172
00:41:35,919 --> 00:41:37,700
just because it's my friends,

1173
00:41:37,725 --> 00:41:39,457
and that brings her closer to my life.

1174
00:41:39,465 --> 00:41:41,709
Jazz: Meeting people for the
first time is always super-awkward.

1175
00:41:41,711 --> 00:41:43,276
I just never know what to say.

1176
00:41:43,278 --> 00:41:45,813
My boobs look irregular. I
don't know how to describe it.

1177
00:41:45,815 --> 00:41:49,007
Like, they're not porn-star,
traditional breasts.

1178
00:41:49,051 --> 00:41:51,987
I'm doing this cool radio
show. It's called "The Qiew."

1179
00:41:52,012 --> 00:41:53,812
We have another caller on the line.

1180
00:41:53,814 --> 00:41:55,981
Man: How do you even approach dating?

1181
00:41:55,983 --> 00:41:58,816
I mean, you may as well kill
yourself back where I come from

1182
00:41:58,818 --> 00:42:01,251
and try to date at
school in your condition.

1183
00:42:01,253 --> 00:42:03,253
You [Bleep].

1184
00:42:03,277 --> 00:42:05,277
