A impressionante EQM do Lucas 2de3 | Lucas's awesome NDE 2of3 - Duration: 26:54.

Hi, guys, be very welcome to another video of the channel "AFTER ALL, WHAT ARE WE?"

Here is the second part of Lucas Olles interview,

who at the age of nineteen had a stroke, followed by a seizure followed by cardiac arrest,

followed by another stroke.

Only.

His story is very impressive.

To give you an idea, when he was there, in the middle of the Near-Death Experience,

he received a request.

They told him to tell people what he learned there ... when he came back here.

With you ... the second part.

Lucas, you talked about a white platform, in a certain moment ...

Some people with similar experiences say that ...

they were taken to a certain place ...

you described it very well ... a lake ... a kind of woods ...

and that there is a limit,

which you must not cross.

That's it.

Did you have this sensation in the place you were?

Yes.

Then, you too...?

I had.

I had a total certainty that there was more ... within that universal consciousness.

A total certainty, a total certainty.

the consciousness ... and the certainty that there were other places.

Infinitely larger places ...

But you did not have access to them?

To be accessed ... but I could not access them.

So much so that we just stayed in the surroundings ... of the lake, where there were the flowers ...

huge ... the flower bed ...

And so ... on the left side ... a forest began, rounded like this ...

with very tall trees ...

with no noise of birds ...

there were no birds there ... just silence ... and a bright light ...

and heat.

The white platform was also a limit.

It was also a limit.

So much so that I left the platform to the places where I went.

But I did not go beyond the platform,

although I could see what was there,

It was a continuation of this great open space ...

of this ... place very much like a park...

but I did not go.

The issue of the platform is as follows.

Everything was a lawn ... on the floor ...

and there was a square on the floor,

two by two square meters.

That's where I woke up ... and that's where I lay down to return.

And this issue of ...

this issue of seeing what was beyond the platform ...

I really could see it ...

but it's not that I could not go.

I should not go.

But I believe I could ...

It was there, isn't it?

I was there.

I just should not go.

It's as if...

the area to which I had access was the area ...

of my experience.

for the experience.

But as my grandmother said that I ...

and it was the first thing she said: "Stay calm ... you will return".

So I think from then on ...

I've been trying to rationalize ...

that place there,

and to say that...

perhaps if I went beyond the platform or into that forest ...

or tried to go around the other side of the lake, perhaps I really wouldn't come back.

Perhaps.

But I believe it is not a choice we can make.

That's why I was sure that I could not go.

You had to come back, you were already informed, right?

It was the first thing I was told.

There are two things in Lucas's experience...

that coincide at least with one of the emblematic cases of NDE ...

which is the one of Pamela Reynolds, who was operated ...

by a neurosurgeon in Arizona ...

and she was frozen ...

this type of surgery is not done until now ...

But he did. She was killed ... clinically ...

and then she described something that coincided with your description:

the horror of the own body.

She said: "to go back and get into this?"

That's what it is ... it's ugly ...

And the other thing is the feeling of discomfort, she had her temperature lowered,

so by the time the surgery was finished they raised little by little the temperature ...

When it was about seventeen degrees on celsius scale ...

She began to awaken.

She said she felt such a cold, a terrible pain ...

as she entered her own body,

the same way Lucas tell us.

The body is ugly ... the body is ugly because ...

you get used to ... there ... very fast.

Perhaps because it is our place of origin ...

and unconsciously we never forget that.

So this idea of ​​looking down and not seeing the body ...

or looking and seeing light, instead of anything physical ...

because I did not shake anyone's hand, I did not squeeze anything, so I do not know if it was physical,

but it was light, it was very bright.

Then suddenly you go back to a body ...

a misshapen body...

That was the feeling ... shapeless ... heavy ... attacked ... pain ... horrible.

It's not like ... a mirror sensation, is it?

No, no, no, it's something else ... it is not me.

"That thing there is not me."

Yes, it is another thing ... it is horrible ... ugly, misshapen.

Lucas, did you speak about your experience to the doctors who assisted you ...

during the cardiac arrest... did you have the opportunity of doing this?

To some of them. I spoke to some of them...

Because ... as I said, I stayed a long time in the hospital ...

and then... you have all those changes ... and everything else ...

but to some of them ... I spoke.

What about their receptivity?... Was it natural?

With some doctors ... especially with the neurologists ...

a very good receptivity.

They heard you?

Yes.

As for the nurses I not even need to say ...

Oh, yes?

the nurses are ...

Lucas, this question has a second purpose which is as follows:

to know if some of the people who helped you, who gave you assistance ...

were able to confirm something that you have seen in your experience.

for example ... thinking of the nurse who climbed on the bed ...

after all, did you ask her, "Did you climb on the bed and ...?"

All of them.

Did all of them confirm?

All of them.

- Everything you described ... they had no doubts ? - All ... all ... all of them...

All, all, all.

Lucas's experience has the highest score on Greyson's scale.

It has everything, everything.

All that is described (on the scale) he experienced.

All, all, all of them.

From my mother being removed from the ICU by a petite nurse ...

to another nurse who was about to climb ... in the urge to do a massage ...

a cardiac massage ...

to the doctor that arrived and later became a good friend of mine ...

we used to call him "feijão" (bean).

No ... "chazinho" (~ some tea). After a while he became "bean".

At that time he was called "cha" (tea) because everytime he would say: "Lucas, drink some tea."

I became very ... very ...

Close to him?

Close ... because I stayed there a long time and ...

and all of them... confirmed ...

that I was right ...

because I told them ... and they answered: it is true ...

it's true ... that's what happened... it's true.

This...

this request ... of my grandmother for me to come back and tell ...

report ...

it seems to me ...

that it is linked to the very reason that everything has happened.

The reason I have been through ...

when I was nineteen, two strokes, one seizure followed by a cardio-respiratory arrest ...

and suddenly this experience ...

it seems to me it's all very interconnected, nothing is by chance.

And this coming back and reporting is what I do, that's what I'm doing here.

Whenever I can, whether in a bar table, or in a restaurant or in a classroom, I always tell ...

and ... I believe that this story accesses in people some things.

Because I think the great motivation to tell is this ... is to access some things in people.

In each one, of course, different things ...

things that change.

But to access these ...

feelings and things in the people that in our day to day stay well hidden,

things that stay obscured, forgotten,

I think it's the same feeling ...

as when I came across this experience ...

"Oops! There is something bigger. Oops!"

Because we don't ... in the day to day we ​​don't ...

in the day to day we stay connected to these things here, these mediocre ...

little things we do all day ...

and then ... "Oops! There is something that we have to cherish ..."

"Oops !. We have to understand something else ..."

and know that ...

here it is very short, it is a blow.

That's where we live, is as stated and is what I always ...

I turned my motto: "That's where we live."

Lucas, you mentioned that ...

like most people who go through what you went ...

They are developing some capabilities that had not developed before.

I would like you to talk a little bit about it.

What happened to you ... in your back,

how is your life today, related to the Near Death Experience?

The door did not close.

I came back and the door was half open.

At the hospital, still ...

already in the room ...

I remember that ...

I got out of the ICU, I went to the room but I got sick at times and I was transferred to hospital.

I went to a room where there was a man in the next bed ...

I was in a coma for a long time.

I remember waking up in the morning ...

I sit on the bed, looking at the bed side and he was sitting.

Then I looked again and he just sitting there.

Obviously I did not know his picture, I did not know he was in a coma ...

Then I looked to the side and he sat over there then I thought: our

Then he ...

Then I heard him talking, "talking to my mom I'm fine."

Shortly thereafter...

beeeeeeeeeeeeeeep.

The nurses entered the room, closed a curtain that was around the bed and he died.

In no time he was sitting on the bed.

This in the hospital. And then? This went?

The next day his mother was there.

It was dawn. Early in the morning ...

and I was not afraid ...

I believe that if it was ... before the stroke I would be running so far.

then ... his mother was soon after, in the early morning ...

So my mother came I said: "Mom, it happened, this, this and this."

She said, "so when the mother comes, or when someone comes to tell you."

It happened, her mother came and I said:

"Look, he was sitting on the bed ..."

"And he said he was fine."

It was not his body, of course.

I'm absolutely certain that's what I told her helped her a lot ... this issue.

Her son was in a coma for fifteen years.

And you had more similar experiences with this, then?

Not in hospitals, because ... thank God once I had high ...

I repeat: I do not see it as ... religion.

Do you think part of that ...

It's like you say, the door remained open?

Exactly, exactly. Too often I wake up in the morning with full feeling of having ...

fifteen, twenty people in my room.

Lucas, you talked about waking up, and be in your room.

There needs to be special environments so that you have ...

No.

It may be at work ...?

I do not control.

I do not control. For example...

"Come now ..."

Got it. You have no power over it.

Suddenly I'm in the bathroom ... oops!

I'm in the kitchen ... oops!

I am a working meeting ... how many times in recent years ...

I was in a meeting with the full assurance that behind me has ...

many people. Surrounding the table a lot of people.

You can identify them ... ...

feeling...

many are afraid ...

fears that resemble the fear I had in my ... ... after death there ...

others ... with the same sense of ...

purity and pleasure that my grandmother passed ...

others with a sense of transmitting this purity, these sensations.

For example.

There have been a few times that I was very apprehensive amid business meetings ...

and suddenly I feel the hand ...

someone...

me through this calm.

"Calm..."

"Will be all right..."

And once I've ... down the ball ...

I believe this is very common for all of us, all the time.

All the time.

We are influenced by them all the time, all the time.

Do you think they are there, in that place and through this ...

poorly closed door they come to you?

I think the door is poorly closed for me.

I think for them the door is open all the time.

Not for all of them.

Not for all of them.

But for some who come here and have the ability to influence us...

certainly to influence in a decisive degree our actions, in our day to day.

That means ... they are people who are there ... where you've been.

Who are there and who can come ...

They may come because ... I see them sometimes.

As I don't see there ...

I don't see that place anymore. I never saw that place again, I've never been there anymore.

I don't see that place ... but I see ...

people from that place, here ...

so I believe they can come here.

I think that sometimes when I feel... their presence ... ...

I believe that they are there and I'm feeling this connection.

But when I see them, I believe they are here.

It is difficult to put this in our words ...

to explain in the physical world all this ...

Do you see these people as you see us here?

A little. A little.

It depends a lot on how I am, it depends if I'm calm, if I'm okay ...

then I see more materialized ...

but most of the time is some thing a bit like my grandmother.

Lucas, you said something that hinted that your experience would have an end, a goal ...

that it is because of the experience that you are talking about it, you are divulging somehow.

This caught my attention because of one thing ...

Not every person who has a cardio-respiratory arrest ...

or clinical death, goes through a Near-Death Experience.

By the way, this is a very interesting argument ...

to refute the hypothesis that medicine defends about the Near-Death Experience.

If you ask or talk about it to most doctors, they will say ...

it was caused by a lack of oxygen on the brain, causing a chemical reaction ...

ie anoxia, which is ...

It is a very palpable reaction ... very solid ...

They say it, but, in fact, when people have a ...

pressure drop, a cardiac arrest or a poor circulation in the brain,

they become unconscious and nobody come back telling any story.

So ... did you came to the conclusion that consciousness may be out of the body ...

or is it... in the brain?

No.

No, no, no, no.

The brain is only physical.

OK

The brain lends something to us.

Because the same way that when I think, I hear my voice,

in that place I heard this same voice.

Then this voice is not from here.

I think it is borrowed ...

Medicine believes ...

ie, the overwhelming majority of researchers on this subject ...

they says that consciousness is a product of the brain ...

as well as the breast produces milk, the brain produces consciousness.

Your experience implies exactly the opposite:

you have consciousness away from your brain.

You see your brain down there ...

I believe ... if we are to conjecture...

Why would my consciousness project me out of the body,

and make me watch myself going through all this negative experience,

when we know that the brain ... refutes ... negative experiences?

If you ask me to remember the pain I had,

I can't remember pain.

Can anyone remember any pain?

I remember the happiness.

But... the pain?

I think the brain always puts the pain and negative feelings behind the queue.

So why would the brain emphasize a negative feeling at a negative moment?

I think, if possible, the brain would lift me... whatever ...

Up?

Up.

But no. I had this experience where I left the body,

where I went through ...

all that physical problem ... because for the body it was a problem ...

and then... the whole experience there,

this thing of knowing it was my grandmother, even without seeing my grandmother,

I had not known my grandmother,

that place, my return,

and how to explain what happens to me since I returned?

The changes you had?

The changes. For example...

within this universal connection ...

I had the chance of connecting me ... a little bit... with them, there ...

the chance of experiencing this exchange of feelings ...

... and the chance of knowing that some forms of life ...

when I say life I mean it there, okay?

they were not...

like the ones we have here.

They were not like... the ones from this...

From this plane here?

From this plane,

from this small planet.

I had this absolute certainty that ...

some sensations, some returns of information that I received ...

they didn't come from ...

people.

Did they come from another kind of being?

Yes.

Yes.

Not necessarily a human kind?

Not human.

Not human.

But what does it mean? Are they all "under the same umbrella"?

All under the same umbrella.

Some of them with more certainty about the umbrella, others less sure about the umbrella,

some of them in contact with each other ...

others ... very isolated ...

others... lost, others... weirds...

other... contacting us here ...

Here.

This... at first makes you confused...

But soon you get to connect and ... this universal network immediately explains to you.

It is very difficult to understand but it is a very fast connectivity, it is a very fast broadband.

You understand everything very quickly.

So from the moment I questioned ... oops!

What is this?

Immediately I got the answer.

It is as if we were ... all the time connected to a large encyclopedia,

and for all the questions you may have ... immediately you know the answer.

So, why didn't I have any fear at any time?

Because I had the answer: "Don't be afraid, It's all right, this is where you live..."

Will I return? You will return.

Who is it? Your grandmother.

What is this, that I'm feeling ... has my vision increased?...

Does this really exist?

Yes, it exists. This is this, this and this.

This is ...

other dwellings.

which are also linked here ...

in which you find also... consciousness ...

These non-human beings have to do with these other dwellings?

Yes.

Yes. I refer to physical dwellings.

Physical like here?

Yes. Not in this, but... there are others... just as there is this planet here,

there are other planets, with people, with beings that are also connected to this same umbrella.

But in another ...

I didn't see ... I didn't see ...

- In another dimension than ours? - In another dimension ... in another dimension ...

or maybe not.

In the place where I went ...

they were not there but ... I'm completely sure that they were around.

You told that you felt connected to the collective unconscious ...

Yes.

- and interconnected with everyone. - With everyone.

Did this include all of these beings?

All of them. All of them.

It's like a great hive.

With all connected.

Including the part of the hive that we do not see,

that is far away .

All interconnected, all interconnected.

Without any doubt.

There are no borders.

I have the full assurance that ...

you know, their experiences ...

as...

as beings,

there, they're shared, they're communed.

It is very hard to explain.

It is a...

It is an information that comes from afar ...

someone living ... someone living... far away ...

physically...

The same way I felt my mother here ...

suffering,

- she thought I was dead ... -

but through a feeling, an information that came from afar ...

I also felt an information coming from far from ...

beings... living ... far away ...

in their routine ...

It is very hard to explain.

And the fact is that consciousness becomes expanded, is not it?

Totally ... there is no end.

Your vision has been modified?

I've heard of people who saw in 360 degrees ...

No, no, no.

My physical vision has not changed.

I mean there. When you were there ...

Oh... there, yes ... there, yes... there, yes...

How did it change?

You don't need to turn around.

- To see? - To see.

It's all very universal. When I say universal it is this:.

universal consciousness ... shared ...

collective, okay?

universal vision ...

It is very hard to explain.

It is totally expanded.

There is no end ... no end ... no end ...

Just as no one had to say to me, "hey ... don't go there."

I already knew I shouldn't go there.

And you were feeling part of a whole, right?

- You were not there as an individual. - Part of a whole. A whole.

It was very ...

in the physical sense ... it was very accurate, I was very sure about everything that I was going through.

It is a whole.

I felt connected to my grandmother, who was beside me ...

just as I was connected to my mother, who was here ...

just as I was connected to my friends, my relatives, to people I didn't know,

to people who are on the other side of this planet and to people who are in others ...

just as I was connected to people who were being cared, there ...

just as others I didn't see and who were there in that little space ...

of the Park ... where I walked around ...

they were there, as people who ...

who had just been through the same experience as I had,

but they would not come back, they were going to stay there ...

they were being cared for ...

We are talking of billions and billions and billions and billions of sensations and experiences being shared ...

instantaneously, simultaneously, there.

If you are there ...

as there is no boundaries for information, say so ...

although there is the idea of levels...

you have the total certainty that there is an evolution there ...

There is a hierarchy?

Yes, there is a hierarchy there.

Surely ... surely ...

It came to me ...

an idea of ​​... "now what?"

Just as you are connected to the billions and billions that are here,

you also have the idea of ​​ the whole humanity, as a collective ...

We are a group, aren't we?

We have our likeness, it is no accident that we are all here,

six, seven billion here on this planet ...

living together at this moment, nothing is by chance, everything is ...

everything is planned.

It is no coincidence that my grandmother was my grandmother, that she was there,

that we're here right now talking about ...

When I was told, "return and tell",

I believe that...

I believe the idea is not "awaken in people this aspect" ...

because I don't believe this ... happens.

But I think it's for us to start widening this vision that we have.

That we need to have.

The vision of this restricted little world, in which people say: "when it is over, it is over".

This restricted world where you hear ...

"Live your life intensely because, after all, we only live once ..."

I'm not saying that we live more than once.

but I am saying that we do not live here.

We are here but we do not live here.

I think that....

I think that we... I think we come back here a few times, yeah.

A few times ... I think so.

Lucas...

some people who went through a Near-Death Experience ...

report that at the time of the experience ...

they had at least some glimpse,

flashes of future events.

Do you think in your experience that sort of thing happened?

Wow.

I already did!

Oh!

Hello buddies!

Welcome to this vanlife vlog!

From the van!

Yes, vanlife.

Vanlife, fulltime vanlife!

How do we do it?

How do we do the fulltime vanlife from the van?

How do we do it?

How do we live it?

How do we roll?

How do we afford the vanlife?

So in case you are new to our van channel: We are living the fulltime vanlife fulltime.

We have been living it since January 1st 2016.

And we don't have any stuff in storage.

Nope.

Everything we have and own is in the RV.

So we are fulltime vandwellers in The Netherlands in Europe.

And we like to share with you: How do we do it!

Because a lot of people wonder if they can do it.

And we will tell you how you can live in a van fulltime.

So I think this will be an interesting video, if you are planning to live in a van or if

you are doubting if you can do it.

Just watch what we have to say.

We are talking from the voices of experience.

Yes!

So Petra, being a fellow fulltime vandweller, how do we do this?

How do we live the vanlife fulltime?

Ehh...

So if you want to live in a van fulltime in your van, or you want to buy a van to live

fulltime in, it's important to know why.

Why do you want to do this?

Yes.

You can have different reasons: it could be you want to travel your country, or you want

to have a simpler life, like we wanted that for ourselves.

We are digital nomads: we are living in the van, we are working in the van and we don't

have any backups anymore.

So this is it for us.

We live in it, we don't have storage otherwhere, nope, and we don't have a house, we don't

have any other place than the van.

So if you are starting out in the vanlife then you might not even know which van is

perfect for you.

You might have an idea, you see other vandwellers on YouTube doing the vanlife, and you might

think: I want to go with the big RV or wanna go with the nostalgic Volkswagen, or I wanna

go with something with a big engine, American truck, yes, Concorde, or like a workmans van,

something like that.

We recommend, before you spend all your money on one type of van: try to drive in a few

vans first!

And that can be either just going to a van dealership or an RV dealer, make a testdrive,

or look around on the internet.

Go check out some secondhand vans that are on offer.

Yes, or rent one for the weekend.

Yeah, that's also a great idea.

Maybe you are not sure if you want to buy a van or an RV yet, it's important to check

out both options.

We did that too.

We drove a few other vans, we were in a RV and we were in some vans and then you get

a feel for it.

Because, if you just look at the pictures on the internet, then it will always look

different in reality.

So I first thought I wanted small vans and turns out I didn't even fit in them.

So that's also important.

Just stand in there, standing in a RV for example, or standing in a van and see how

do you feel.

Do you feel cramped?

Do you think: oh I can do this.

Or: this is more spacious than I thought?

Sometimes a small van, you see it from the outside and think: wow, how can anybody live

in there?

You step in, you think: aha, I see.

It's huge in here.

And you can step in a big RV and think: ha, looks a bit crampy, cramped.

Make a testdrive and see from there.

So let's talk a bit more about the vanlife.

The transitioning into the vanlife.

If you are living in a house still, maybe it is a bought house or a rented house.

One thing that is important to realize is that you will have to minimalize if you're

going in a RV or in a van.

We know of people who rented out their house to other people.

But that means that you have the responsibility.

So you will be on the road, you always have a responsibility with the people that are

renting your house.

Something happens, you are gonna get a call.

And you have to take some action.

Yep.

If you have stuff and you store it at places, you store your stuff at your parents, at your

friends, then basically that also can be a ball and chain for you.

Because in the back of your mind you always know: oh, I have some stuff there.

Eventually comes the point that you are bothering people with your choice.

With your stuff.

You wanna choose the vanlife, and they have to deal with it, by having your stuff.

For us that was a reason to say: we don't wanna trouble anyone else with our stuff.

So we just gonna get rid of as much as we can and that's easy, because there only fits

so much in a van or in a RV.

If you put it in storage to begin with, that's probably stuff you can go without.

If it's something dear to you, just make a picture of it.

So then there is the question of the vanlife and how do you afford it.

And you afford it ,simple, by getting rid of as much monthly bills as possible.

Another thing is: How you are going to get your income.

Because now you are probably working a steady job.

Where you have to be present.

And if you are living the vanlife, you could do that if you stay in the same area.

Then you can just keep the job that you have.

Easily.

Even sometimes you can work it out with your employer and give them a choice and say: Look,

I'm gonna live in a van, I still want to work at this company, is that possible?

Can we arrange that?

In my case, I am a copywriter, webdesigner.

Petra is a photographer.

So for us that is possible.

We don't have to be at a company to give our services.

If it's not possible, and that might be the case, that it's not possible.

That your employer says 'No' and thinks it's strange that you want to live in a van.

Just look at your work and think: Is this the only work I can do, or can I find similar

work elsewhere in the country.

And if that's a Yes, then there is no reason to stay.

If they are not willing to return that favour to you and say: Well, you are happy here and

so we are going to make this work, then their love is not equally from both sides.

If they don't meet you halfway, then you have your answer.

Then you choose the highway.

It might mean that you have to go on the look for different means of income.

And one of the things that we did to solve that, was creating products to sell.

As you can look around in the van you see photographs hanging in here and all those

photos are for sale.

We have a website (rvliscious.com) and Petra's photos are on there.

And that are all photos she made since the vanlife.

Yes.

So that is awesome.

We also make ebooks, we make a digital magazine, we have made stickers and we can create more

and more products, that we can do from the van.

And the advantage of ebooks and digital products is that you don't have a physical supply in

your van.

Another way is getting support.

And the support can be from the viewers (you guys!).

Same goes for opportunities like sponsorship.

We know of channels they get sponsored.

We don't have a sponsor yet.

We do get private donations from people who follow our channel.

Just have to be patient basically.

It is hard sometimes, can be frustrating, so it does help if you already saved up a

lot of money before you go into the vanlife.

If you haven't, it doesn't mean you cannot do it.

We also did it.

But it might be a bit more of a struggle and it might mean that you cannot travel as far

as you anticipated yet.

But on the other hand, it doesn't matter either, because you are not on vacation.

Nope.

So if you cannot travel this year you can travel the next year.

Because your whole life will be a travel.

Yes, it is just one big journey in the van!

Yes, vanlife it's not always sunny.

If you are starting the vanlife in The Netherlands, we can assure you...

We wanted to experience the winter.

Yes.

Because a lot of people, they think: Can you do the vanlife in the Winter?

Yes.

And yes you can do it very comfortably.

Because you only need a small heater to warm up the small van.

Yeah, indeed.

So we bought a portable heater, a petroleum heater, and it heats us up so nicely.

Very comfy!

It's like being at a fireplace!

Yes!

Then it's no challenge at all to be in the snow or in the cold.

Because if it gets cold, you just turn on the thing for an hour or so, yes, and your

van stays warm the whole night!

And it gives you another reason to snuggle up early!

And safety is another thing.

If you live in one place, then everybody around you gets to know your schedule.

They know when you go to work, they know when you are home.

So if somebody wants to break in, they know when you are on vacation, they can break in.

Because you probably said: Oh, I'm going on vacation!

They see you loading up your van, wagon, and off you go and in they go!

When you live in a van, you stay one day, two days, three days in one spot and then

you move on.

And usually you stay surrounded with other campervans on camperplaces.

It's different maybe if you boondock in areas that you don't know very well.

Even then, if you are smart about where you are gonna stand, we didn't have any break-ins.

Nope.

We have Petra's photogear on board, we have my laptop on board.

We are being sensible about it.

And not to say that it will never happen.

I think in a van you have relatively less chance of break-ins.

If you have really an expensive camera, just bring it with you wherever you go.

If you have a really expensive laptop, put it in your backpack, bring it with you wherever

you go.

Everything that you lose can be replaced.

What happens if somebody steals the van? Well, then you have to look for another van.

You can even in a van when you are with two persons, you can say: well, one stays with

the van, and the other goes into the store.

If you don't trust it.

So last thing we want to talk to you about: that, if you are starting the vanlife, then

we really recommend making a vanlife vlog.

Talk about your daily vanlife.

Basically it's your online diary.

Or blog.

Yeah, you talk about what you do, what you experience, because you will live through

so many days full of adventure, that you basically make your own, you create your own memories.

And by sharing the vanlife, you can also inspire other people to do it.

And that's one reason that we said: If we are going to live in a van, we are going to

show how we do it in the van.

And see how you overcome some challenges.

It's a great opportunity, if you travel in a van, to share it.

It also creates opportunities.

If people see you do it, they can decide to support you.

Ho!

Why Do Placebos Work? - Duration: 6:18.

Your brain is superpowered.

It's so powerful that it can actually convince you not to feel pain.

How's that possible?

It's all thanks to something called the placebo effect.

Placebos have been around for a /long/ time - back in the 16th century, Catholic priests

used fake religious relics during exorcisms to determine if a person was /truly/ possessed

by the devil or not.

But the term placebo wasn't commonly used in medicine until after 1763, when the physician

Alexander Sutherland used the word to condescendingly describe doctors who only aimed to please

their patients rather than focusing on providing effective treatment.

And "placebo" literally translates to "I will please" in Latin.

Nowadays, placebos are really just treatments that have no true medical effect - you know,

like sugar pills, or saline injections.

With a placebo, you're mimicking the action of /taking/ a medication or applying a treatment,

but there's no active ingredient - you're not really /doing/ anything.

So it's pretty weird that a lot of the time, placebos actually /work/.

But if a patient is not getting any medication, or receiving a real treatment, how is that

even possible?

In 1985, psychologist Irving Kirsch guessed that the reason placebos work could be because

of what he called response expectancies.

According to this theory, what a person experiences in any given situation is partially a result

of what they /expect/ to experience.

So if a doctor hands you a pill and tells you it'll make your pain go away, you /expect/

that it'll help your pain, and so you experience pain relief.

Or when your mom kisses your skinned knee and says "all better!", suddenly it doesn't

hurt anymore.

Placebos can also work as a result of classical conditioning.

Ivan Pavlov demonstrated classical conditioning back in the 1800's, when he presented dogs

with food while ringing a bell.

Eventually, the dogs learned that the sound of the bell meant they were about to receive

food, and they would start drooling even when there wasn't any food present.

In the case of a placebo, because we've learned that taking a pill will have a beneficial

effect on whatever ails us, if we swap the "real" pill out with a fake one, our bodies

will still react as if we were taking medication.

Or if a friend drinks non-alcoholic beer without knowing, they may still experience symptoms

of intoxication.

Psychologically speaking, placebos can be /very/ powerful - there's evidence that

placebos can be up to 70% as effective as taking an antidepressant drug for patients

with depression, and patients taking a placebo for migraines reported at least a 50% improvement

in their pain symptoms compared to no treatment - even if they knew it was a placebo!

And it turns out that those psychological effects may be connected to actual changes

in the brain and body.

In one small study, researchers used positron emission tomography, or a PET scan, to track

glucose metabolism in the brains of patients taking placebos to treat depression.

Because your brain requires lots of energy to function, scientists believe that more

glucose metabolism corresponds to more neuronal activity.

Patients who felt like their depression was improving while taking a placebo showed changes

in metabolism in the neocortex and limbic areas similar to those seen in patients who

were taking the antidepressant fluoxetine - also known as Prozac.

And in another small study, patients with Parkinson's Disease showed an increase in

dopamine release in the striatum, similar to that seen when patients were given a traditional

L-dopa medication.

Placebos are also known to have an analgesic effect, helping to reduce or eliminate pain

in many different situations - and in cases where placebos do help alleviate pain, they've

also been found to have effects in many different associated brain regions, including the prefrontal

cortex, cingulate cortex, and basal ganglia, and even into the brainstem and spinal cord.

Scientists believe that many of the effects of placebos can be linked to top down processing.

Our brains have to do a /lot/ of work to take in, process, and understand all of the information

it receives minute to minute.

So in addition to bottom up processing - where the brain integrates and responds to raw sensory

information - top down processing lets different brain regions give each other feedback based

on our memories and goals.

So essentially your brain is like, "Hey, I remember taking this medication.

It makes me feel better.

I better send a message telling everyone to get to work feeling better!"

This is especially true of complex conditions, like pain and depression - unlike something

like a heart murmur, which just kinda happens by itself and doesn't get processed through

the brain, these conditions have a big cognitive component, and require a lot of that top down

processing.

This may be why placebos seem to be particularly effective for those kinds of conditions.

The effects of placebos are a really incredible example of just how powerful our brains can

be; our minds can actually affect the way that we perceive intense physical stimuli

like pain, increase the effectiveness of medications, and impact how we cope with illnesses like

depression.

But that isn't to say that these kinds of illnesses are "just in our minds".

The real takeaway here is that brains are complex, and lots of different approaches

- from therapy to medication to pure mental strength - can be effective and useful when

it comes to these conditions.

Now, don't you feel better, just knowing how placebos work?

You do, don't you.

Yeah, you do.

Hopla, and you?

No I don't do that.

No? I don't believe that.

What??

Sexting: sending horny texts and pictures to your loved ones or flirt.

Rarely because we are always together.

Yeah I do.

I have a boyfriend so.

Okay, for how long are you in a relationship? - 4months.

4 months, so you guys Sext?

Sometimes yeah. Do you show spicy pictures?

If you include snapchat, yes.

Tonight we will find, which one of you 3 couples, is the most kinky one.

Because I will ask: Do you Sext?

No - No really? Is this true?

No it's not true.

Why do you lie to me? - Oh I don't know.

Mate, you shouldn't be lieing, thats punishable.

That's true, sorry. - Don't lie to me anymore okay.

Good evening miss, are you sending a sextmessage?

No. - But i see that you are texting someone on your phone.

No I was just checking something out.

No spicy text to your husband or boyfriend? Maybe to your loverboy?

For how long are you in a relationship? - 3 weeks.

What?? You guys should be sexting nonstop!

Make sure he is hard when you get home baby.

I'm just giving hints and tips. This will be a kinky relationship, I will upgrade this.

You don't send nudes to your boyfriend?

Nope. Wanna try?

Sure, I'm totally down for that.

Explain sexting please.

She does it, I was with her once when she was doing it.

And did she ask you for advice, what to sext?

No I was just laughing at her.

I don't know, it's a little bit embarrassing to talk about.

Then, when you dont feel comfortable, you don't have to talk about it.

And how about a nip-slip?

What? - A nipple-slip. you know

What is that? - Well when a celebrity is on the red carpet and her bra is not sitting well and you can see a piece of her nipple.

So you guys sext from time to time? - Yeah.

What is that for a name.

We will be sexting tonight. Can you give me a warmup?

I don't know. What would you say?

I would say: girl, if i were there with you right now, I would throw you against the wall.

I would slap you on the ass, and bite you in the neck.

Sure, come and give it to me.

Imagine that we will be Sexting tonight. Can you give me a warmup please?

First I would ask you what you are doing.

Well I am in my bed, naked because it's so hot.

I would reply that I am also naked, because of the hot weather.

I would propose you to come to your place.

I reply saying that you're always welcome.

Okay nice, what would you want me to do as soon as I get there?

I would say: rip the clothes from my body, but I am already naked.

I would be speechless for a bit.

I will reply: I would throw you on the bed, spank your ass and jump on you like a predator.

Biting my neck is not necessary, but jumping me from behind sounds cool.

How about neck licking?

Maybe, yeah.

And how about biting your ear?

That's allowed.

Nice, that's really nice.

Dirty mind! - Thanks, thanks.

That's easy, you have to reply when I say something sexy.

Like, when you spank me I will scream and jump.

And I turn myself around and bite in your bottom lip.

She knows all about lips.

Are you a lipbiter?

Not really.

I am a right lip biter, i like that.

So there are couples that don't practice sexting.

I highly recommend it though, as it gives the relationship an extra dimension.

Don't forget about it, my friend.

Sometimes I have a tip slip. When my tip just slips out my pants and is visible to the eye.

Why do you laugh? It's a serious rare condition.

Imagine that you go work in another country.

You go grab a drink, come back to the hotel, and you are very horny, you have this rocksolid in your pants.

And you text her: Baby I really miss you, I want you here.

And she replies that she might have a solution to your horny problem. Would you continue the convo?

Yeah I would continue the sexting session.

So the kinkyness is within you guys, you just have to extract it.

A little bit of flirting, but not really hardcore sexting.

Do you mean like sending nudes etc?

Yeah, for example.

No, not that.

But a little bit of teasing is okay?

Wait till I am with you, like that?

yeah, maybe.

I'll rip the clothes from your body - Nononono

There are limits.

Some mumbling no one can understand.

What is he saying? That looks like a special dude to me.

I don't really do that.

But you are a good looking guys, with a nice chest. So you haven't sent a girl a picture from your body before?

I even do that with my little small chickenchest.

Not really, rarely.

If he says: wow you have small hands, and I reply: Yeah but you should know what I can do with them.

Yeahh! that's exactly what I mean.

We are turkish, we want to keep our virginity.

But you know, you cannot lose your virginity through texting.

Respect for the ladies who can keep their virginity untill marriage, respect.

That is what? - My sister!

Your little sister you mean.

Your little sister is more kinky than you are.

Apparently yes.

What about you?

Not really, just some flirting yeah.

I will gently slide my nose in your neck untill I reach your ear.

How will you react?

I don't really like noses.

What the fuck dude? so you rather have my penis in your neck from the start?

No that is not allowed.

Okay so a little picture with some nice text? - Yeah.

How about you?

We just type some text, no pictures.

Okay so we have a winner!

Today my nickname is: Rocksolid.

What is that? - Hard like a stone.

Oh that's good.

Sorry, you are not kinky enough for me. I need a crazy lady.

Have a nice evening ladies.

As you can see, Antwerp is filled with spicy ladies, and I like that alot.

I wish you guys a nice evening, what will you be doing?

Sexting in real life.

What is Love? | Episode 2. How do I know I'm not straight? (Part 1) - Duration: 22:21.

I'm Ellie I'm 28 and I'm a queer woman.

My name is Adam Noviello

I'm 24 years old and I am a gay male.

My name is Enoch I'm 21 I'm a student.

My pronouns are them, their. I identify as queer

I'm Sam I'm 24

and I identify as a male who likes men

My name is Kristen I am 28 years old and I'm a

lesbian but at the moment I am in

Justin Teliqure mode [DRAG KING]

he's also 28 and he's bisexual.

Hi I'm Brian I'm a 52 year old gay man and I am

the father of an 8 year old beautiful boy.

My name is Ruby Clark I am

24 years old and I identify as human.

Hi I'm Evan I'm 29 years old and I identify

as gay and I believe I'm asexual.

Hi my name is Robbie I'm 25 years old

and I'm a drag queen from Melbourne my drag name is Lazy Susan and I'm also a

cis white gay man.

Hi I'm Angela I'm 55 years old and I identify as heterosexual

and Christian and the mother of a gay son.

Hi I'm Nick I'm 24 years old and I'm

a same-sex attracted male.

My name is Tash I'm 22 and I'm gay....

AF!!

I grew up in a small town and I hesitate to say bogan but it was really bogan and

it was a lovely place to grow up because it's like stunning but then you could

also like get like stabbed just like a little bit like just in some areas or

like have your hair that on fire on a Sunday, when you're just trying to catch the

train to get your new job going and trying to pick your ipod nano.

I grew up on the Gold Coast Oh actually I grew up all over Australia that was stupid.

- When did you move back to the Gold Coast? -

When I was in grade 3 maybe two.

I remember coming out to my mom when I was in grade

10 as I really liked my best friend's and she told me it was just a phase.

I've just sort of been confused ever since like I just don't really know I don't

think anyone needs to actually come out or not come out or have a clear idea of

what they are what they identify as I don't feel like I'm the lesbian I don't

feel like I'm straight I don't feel like I'm bisexual I just feel like I'm a

person who likes people.

I was never really friends with lots of gay and

lesbian people until I started doing theatre

and now I think everyone's beautiful.

So i don't think it matters what you look like.

I grew up in Geelong it's

a very well I would say a very small minded city. It's one of the reasons why

I had to leave but yeah I always grew up not feeling fully comfortable with

myself based on the fact that I felt like I needed to fit this identity.

So I grew up in the eastern suburbs of Melbourne Templestowe so I went to

school in the 70s and then I went to a private boys Catholic College and again

it wasn't really you know hammered home that you know being gay was by the

school you know and the teachers but just in the peer group you know you know

it was like... you know you don't wanna be a poofter and in fact I have

a memory of at the end of year 8 a couple of guys come out and say hi we've

decided we don't think you are a poof it's just you've got four sisters you know

that's why you are what you are because you know I wasn't a football player

sort of lad you know I was uh yeah just not one of the guys necessarily but they

attributed to I've got four sisters so that normalized you know my being a bit

different in their eyes so yeah it was the funny sort of reaction. One those

things you always remember when of course I'm thinking will actually, no,

I am a poof.

I grew up in London so born in England and lived there until I was 11

and then my mum decided one day that we were gonna move to Australia so we did

that when I was 11 and then I grew up in St. Andrews which is a tiny country town

about an hour outside of Melbourne and lived there until I was 20 then moved to

uni which was in Bundoora.

As a teenager I kind of always I had little crushes on

other girls but I kind of wrote it off as you know everyone has crushes on

their friends and because I still like boys as well I didn't really think too

much of it and then um I mean I went to uni and I also had crushes on girls

there and I still didn't think too much of it I was really really just in denial

I guess and it's such a cliché but it wasn't really until I started playing

roller derby that I went hey I don't think I'm straight.

Everyone has the same story

everyone starts roller derby and then they're like ah look at all these

women now I know I'm not straight anymore.

I grew up in a town called Mill Park

in Melbourne I think I always sort of knew there was something different

going on I think there was always a an element of not fitting in so I think a

lot of it was the fact that I grew up in a sort of a very heteronormative

suburban place and so as a boy in those sort of environments you played sport

and behaved a certain way and dressed a certain way and I didn't do any of those

things so I think there was always that sense of there's something different

about me but I wasn't really sure what it was.

There's this thing in pop culture

that there's you have this enlightening moment where you lock lips with someone

at the same sex and everything before this has been a complete and utter waste

and this is who I am I've never really had that because after I met this guy

and we had a bit of a very brief fling I continued to date and see girls the

immediate fear is the association with gay sex and so you know I don't think

about it like that it's more that emotionally and and intimately I just

connect with men more on that level.

Ah, so I was born in Brisbane I lived in

San Jose California we moved over there because of apartheid in South Africa and

then when I was 8 we moved to Cape Town in South Africa my mom remarried and I

moved to Switzerland I lived there for five years

finished high school and then I moved over to Australia and I've been here

nine years now.

I grew up in a small town which is about a two hour drive south of

Sydney it's a little closed-minded there are not many gay people in that

community and I was a little scared to come out there but it worked out in the

end they're a lot better now.

I remember when I was in high school I was always

looking at the other guys that were in my year and always thinking you know why

don't I feel that kind of attraction to too girls as I do to them and I thought

what was something wrong is there something different about me um and then

it just kind of grew from there I just thought no I I'm attracted to this set

of people I'd I'm not attracted to girls and even though society is telling me

you should be attracted to girls.

I grew up in Melbourne.

-Where abouts? -

Oh northern suburbs

Lawler and then after I got married I've lived here in Reservoir for 31 years.

So I grew up here in reservoir and yeah locally around the northern suburbs

down at Northland.

I grew up in Redfern and Waterloo, which is know for it's hi representation of Indigenous community.

I grew up in housing commission probably until I started high school

and have just been moving around since then.

The Tongan culture is so

embedded in religion it tends to be really homophobic society but the great

thing for me to be like in this, sort of, generation where a lot of Polynesian

youth are not afraid to come out of the closet and for us it's sort of like

amazing because at a young age it's sort of like I know like

I feel like I'm the only one and it tends to be like that I think for a lot

of people like in Polynesian culture tends to be super like isolating like

the feeling and for me it was seeing someone who was Tongan and was gay

at such a young age that made me feel like it's okay like I never spoke to this

person but the fact that they were there it was great so it's great to have like

this group of Polynesian queer people coming together like growing in the

community and and that's great because like there was a lot of culture that was

lost when a lot of the islands were sort of emancipated to God the culture lost

being the queer sort of culture that a lot of whole nation islands had prior to

that like so and we're talking about like the third genders in some islands

and like gay people being a part of society and having a place in society so

that's been really great to be a part of sort of like a reclamation and

decolonization sort of idea

I never did.

are you kidding no I never did. I have really understanding parents who'd been exposed

to a lot of queer culture by the time they had a queer child so they never

imposed a heterosexual expectation upon me like they were never like when are

you bringing home a girlfriend or whatever people all turned vegetarian at

school for like a year but in our school everyone went gay for a year

- and with you it just stuck -

yeah just suck you know I'm just I really commit.

I was actually 14 it was

a very overwhelming sensation I got very emotional actually cried the first time

I kind of started questioning my my identity and I just thought I was ill

and that there was something wrong with me and that I needed to get help

basically I went to an all-boys school and I always I would didn't compare but

I would always look at men and just like look at their torso and their physical

appearance and I didn't realize that I was actually attracted to them I was

kind of comparing them to me and like what I would have liked what I would

like to see in myself like I'm like what parts of that their physical parts I

would like I would just put it right out there I first discovered it or started

questioning my sexuality when I decided to watch a gay porno and yeah that's

where it happened and the journey began there.

I wouldn't say that my identity

was ever really a question for me when I was little I always felt very different,

I had different interests different things I wanted to do when I was 14 I sort of

finally realized I was attracted to Zac Efron I guess I was lucky in a way

because I didn't feel like this was suddenly throwing everything up in the

air I'd already worked on being different in so many other ways you know

it's obviously pretty terrifying but I don't know to me it just sort of seemed

another difference to have to deal with.

Since I was a kid it's so weird. I always

say like the hottest person for me to come out to was myself because literally

I was questioning it since I was like like 10 years old

in my room thinking it and literally being like no no you can't you cannot

think that that's an option like that makes no sense

because I never saw anything that told me I could be that like it anything that

was gay was always so out there or so like it was never normalized or it was

never like I don't know like I was very girly growing up and I love dolls and my

room was all pink and I'm not necessarily like that now but as a

little girl growing up it was like you you can't be both like you have to be

really masculine you have to be like which is cool and there's nothing wrong

with that it's just not me it's not something that I ever identified with

it's so funny looking back on things like all of my dolls growing up that I'd

play with they never had guys that they were partnered with all the boys were

their brothers or like their best friends.

Last year of primary school

probably about 12 I felt attraction to the same sex during high school that

kind of crystallized more and more but didn't do anything about it until in my

20s yeah it was really challenging to think that I was different to my peers I

didn't want to be gay really if I could avoid it so I was in denial dated a

couple of women I'm sure they're still in therapy so yeah it took me, my

journey was a long one.

I didn't have any sort of gay moments until I was like

nearly twenty so I had girlfriends all through high school and absolutely did

not suspect myself of being LGBT in any sense because I think being a kid in

those sort of environments you were always bullied for being gay

openly singing and performing in high school and those sort of things it was

always you were labeled as gay and then bullied for it and so as a person..

.. I didn't believe there was many around me that were similar to me

is that I didn't embrace that as a thing I assumed it was something negative

because it was I was told quite aggressively and awfully that it was not

a good thing I was until I left schools at it and I met a man

who pursued me and I was so I was 19 I met

this guy he was lovely and he he pursued me and flirted with me and obviously

like most people probably assumed I was gay but and didn't think any of you else

of it so I just sort of embraced it and so I don't hate this.

These days I

comfortably identify as homosexual just because I think I don't know organically

I just connect with men on that level on that deeper level.

I think I was around

the age of 14 - 15. I was always obsessed with Jennifer Lopez she was just

gorgeous absolutely gorgeous and I think I was sitting in my room at one point

and just looking at a magazine and I just sat down and went I'm gay I'm gay.

I think what really started that questioning of my sexual identity was

being really involved in the Mormon Church at the time so for me like the

teachings that I learned every Sunday a lot of things were really talking about

homosexuality and why it's like wrong and etc and I think that's like a really

universal theme that LGBTQIA+ people really experiences difference I always

felt a bit different but I never knew what it was although like I learnt about

it in the church I didn't really understand until I got older and I think

for me it really like came to like an apex when I turned 18 and in the Mormon

Church you're supposed to like serve a two mission where you go over seas and

teach the Word of God or whatever and really like you become a missionary and

for me that wasn't really the life I really wanted to live because I knew

who I was deep down.

I started uni and there was a girl in the year above me

who I found out had like dated girls before and I was like oh but she's

gorgeous like she's beautiful and feminine

I called her being like oh I think I might be gay and she was like

"I ***KEN KNEW IT!"

She was like, "I've had bets on this with someone."

your identity is your identity it doesn't matter what anyone else thinks

and whatever you feel and whatever you think it's not going to be exactly the

same as what someone else feels and what someone else thinks so trust you.

I've been coming in and out of the closet for years and years and years and I still feel

like I'm in the door frame but I don't think that matters because that's my

identity and that's all that matters like to me.

Like that's the issue is that

we like think that we need to just stay stay fixed and that once you figure out

like when you're 18 or 19 you're like this is just who I am now it's like hey

no you're gonna be like yeah you're gonna be a completely different person

in three years three days.

Take your time with it and don't be afraid to change

your mind I think when we talk about gender and sexuality we often tend to

pigeonhole people of all oftentimes people have to come out of the closet of

million times before they figure out who they are.

I think it's good to have a

good support network around you I was very lucky that I went to a high school

where I kind of walked in one day and was like I'm gay you can deal with it

and they're like we love you it's all good but I think it yeah it depends on

your circumstance and and where where you are and what time it is and and

what's what's what but as long as you feel safe, be open be yourself because

there's only one of you in the world and you know you only have one life so

everyone else just needs to get over it.

As soon as I started like properly

questioning my identity when I was well I was about 23 when I started Derby and

when I started questioning things fully I googled so much like thank God for

safesearch on my browser history would be really weird but yeah just if you

have a question you're probably not the first person to have thought that or

felt that and it was really helpful to just google it and find out that there

were lots of other people who had felt or were feeling the same way as me and

know that it's okay it's okay to be who you are

well some people won't be accepting there are

a lot of us who will and we're here for you and it does get better

It get's heaps better.

You don't have to put like a title on it if that's not helpful to you,

you can be you and do what you want to do without like having to stress

about like calling it something or it being a big deal I'm in such two ways

about it because I'm not because like who cares like just be you but that I'm

also like I'm gay okay I did love being gay I like blah blah blah I would say

empower yourself so I am obsessed with drag race because that's exactly it it's

like it's showing that you can be a minority in any sense and empower

yourself. Just stick up for yourself I love yourself and just like be proud of

it and be chill about it like be you about it.

Everything else around you is

telling you it's wrong so that's where all the the questioning comes into it

but to me the actual fact of the matter never upset me at all it was just what

people told me should be upsetting me about it and before I even said anything

about it, obviously people pick up that you dance around a lot but when I

actually came to the point where I said not only do I not have a problem with

this but I'm thrilled about it, that was really big for both of us I think do you

know this is not only not a problem but the opposite like, it's a good thing, it's

a great thing yeah I think being gay is so great and in a way I almost feel

sorry for hetero guys because when you're gay you get

to dress how you want make as much noise as you want almost say whatever you want

you know you can I mean anyone can do anything of course but since coming out

I've found the freedom and acceptance to be what I never thought I was allowed to

be and to go even further I mean I performed in drag and I don't know

laughed at the top of my lungs and - danced in the supermarket - well I've

always done that maybe I kind of stopped that actually.

In a way being able to come out has been the best thing that's ever happened to

my life in every aspect relationship wise career wise happiness wise it's the

best I'm so glad you found this video because I didn't have this and I wish I

had there is so much out there now and I would urge anyone who's questioning

their identity to go and find library books and magazines and websites and

YouTube videos and people who will help you work out what this means because

there's a lot of really positive stuff out there it is so great to fill your

head with that stuff instead I promise you you will find people who will love you

so hard that every raised eyebrow and ignorant politician and hurtful facebook

status will just be so drowned out by it and if you can't find those people to

love you go and look for them because they're out there everywhere and maybe

one day when you're 24 your mum will walk with you in a Gay Pride Parade

You go.

You Weren't gonna cry, remember?!

and we have a town wizard where I'm from who walks around with a staff and does

healings cuz a lot of like you know that hippie culture it was like Reiki

healings and one time one of my friends mom's got told to piss off oh **k off

by the town wizard which is like I guess how you get sent to hell. There was this

thing called Aura Points which is what what people would use like instead of

money they'd have Aura Points and see it was like a pun I was like a battering

system where you could trade like a crystal healing for a sack of potatoes and

then like in the '90s of course the Aura economy collapse people were really

jumping out of the building

What is Love? | Episode 4. How do I know I'm bisexual/pansexual? - Duration: 25:12.

I'm Caitlin I'm 22 and I identify as pansexual

Alex 26 bisexual

I'm Ellie I'm 28 and I'm a queer woman

my name is Callum Sandercock I'm 23 years old and I'm pansexual

I'm Rachel, or Rae, I'm 24 from Melbourne and I am non-binary

more specifically demi femme or gender fluid

and I'm also pansexual and a Christian

I'm Alana I'm 19 and I'm bisexual

my name is Kate I'm 31 years old and I identify as an aromantic pansexual

hi my name is Alana I'm 19 and

identify as a bisexual cisgender female

Shalom veAhava brothers others and sisters

my name is Rayne and I'm 31 years old

I am unapologetically queer and Jewish

I am a bisexual I am a non-binary female and I am married

I occupy schrödinger's gender being simultaneously cis and trans

and I identify as a camp metrosexual butch dyke

and a strong and powerful woman

I grew up in the south western suburbs of Sydney

I grew up on the Mornington Peninsula in a little town called Hastings and, yeah, I still

live there but I sort of spend most of my time on public transport now

Out in like suburbia in Melbourne yeah very happy house my parents have been

together 27 years now I think

and you know I went to Catholic Primary School, went on to Catholic high school

you know got a really decent education

so I grew up in Sydney, Australia in the

North Shore suburb of St Ives, I went to primary school there and then I went to

Newtown High School of the Performing Arts which was real, real good and so my

dad kind of encouraged me that's like a really nice way of putting it, to do

Rugby Union so I played it for seven years. I'm not a religious person but I

would pray for rain every morning that we had to go. Instead of playing rugby

and being like a normal boy I just just skip around the field and do dances so

my mom was like maybe we should put him in dancing

I grew up in a really happy home

me, mum, dad, [a] few pets. We grew up in

Doncaster, really nice area. Everything was really good. I had the most loving

parent could you imagine. Overfed, overslept, like, it was fantastic. Primary school

pretty good. Like, the way everything just landed and it was really small bunch so

everybody knew everybody. Everybody was really nice before you know getting to

high school and the bullying and all that bullcrap starts

I grew up in the Blue Mountains in New South Wales which was nice but the most

exciting thing you could possibly do was spend an hour on the train to go to

Penrice which is like the New South Wales equivalent of Frankston so

I grew up in Melbourne

In sort of the shire of Melton but like not quite Melton the stigma of Melton without actually being Melton

So I grew up in regional New South Wales, 3 hours west of Sydney in a small town of about 3,000 people

My primary school had 15 kids in it, it was in a house, we had a river down the back

and we went yabbying at lunchtime

sexuality wise I grew up

culturally without the ideas that people could be of different sexuality

woman married men, men married women, some people stayed single

our family did know some gay men only on the basis that they remain single because they believed

it was wrong to be in a relationship

it was something I learned about when I moved to the city

I moved to Canberra when I was 17 you know I accidently joined a

motorcycle club because I liked riding motorbikes I learned that everyone in

that club was a butch woman predominantly lesbians and that was my

first experience and I didn't realize that that was me at the time but I

certainly felt a great comfort with those people. Probably 19 I had 19, 20

20 I had a major breakdown I was diagnosed with a whole bunch of mental health

issues but in reality if I think about it I was coming out and understanding

that so yeah I came out as bisexual and that was the beginning, six months later

I was in my first relationship with a woman and that's the person who I

married we've been together for 10 years this year so yeah

- just for anyone specifically who is questioning that within themselves

- what about how you felt led

- you to know that you were bisexual?

well I'd been in a relationship with a

male, a serious relationship, we were engaged. I certainly, like, I loved him and

and it was a great relationship in that regard

obviously didn't last. Yeah, so I was very aware that I was into men and it

wasn't necessarily that a normalization for my child it was actually something

that existed which was very challenging because mostly we don't see butch women

experiencing themselves as bisexual. I don't know if that's cultural or

real but that's not an identity that tends to come out, and then yeah I was

very aware that that I was into women. That was kind of simple and

the relationship I had was with my now partner was that experiment in that

space and that feeling and the comfort innately understanding that

that's right and it feels good even with all the negative stuff in your head so yeah

I started questioning my sexuality probably around 15, maybe 16

I guess it wasn't really until high school you know that I knew I was

not just attracted to girls but also to boys

uh it was such a whirlwind for me

um because like now that I think back on it a very long time ago but I was like

very much in denial about that. I can think back to times when I was like 10

that I sort of knew but just pushed it aside I would sort of feel some level of

attraction to like some older girls that I really admired and I just assumed that

it was a platonic kind of admiration but it wasn't [laughs]. Even though it was a very

similar attraction to what I was experiencing to boys at the time I just

constantly was brushing it aside and I started sort of thinking to myself maybe

I'm not straight and then another part of me will be like no you are you are

[I've] only ever really been with boys, still only been with boys and so it took

me a very long time to like finally come to terms with those feelings and be okay with it

It was actually quite late in my teens sort of when I started uni

I mean before that I'd been like very open to other people being gay or bi and you

know all that kind of stuff but partly because I was quite religious when I was

younger I wasn't kind of open to me being that way. Once I kind of hit uni

and people were talking about you know being bi being gay and all that kind of

stuff I kind of recognized some of my feelings in that because I had very

close relationships with girls when I was younger but I kind of hadn't

recognized that it could be romantic and it could grow into something else. To me

it was just really intense emotional friendships.

I was in pre-prep, it was Princess and the Frog, and it was-

the got to the end of it, she kissed the frog, he turned into a boy and I just around remember

yelling I was like Ah I wanted to be a girl And I was so angry.

I was like don't we get to choose?

and from then on in I always - I really questioned my identity. Going into middle

school was very interesting. There were lots of different stages I thought

I only like girls or I only like guys and well now I like a girl so I must be a

lesbian and now I like a guy so I must be straight and that was really - that was

really horrible not knowing and not having clarity I've

I didn't hear the word bisexual until I think I was about 14 I

It was really hard until somebody actually like sat me down I was like this is what

bisexual is and this is what it means that I was like oh my god this is like

I'm not I'm not like the missing puzzle piece, like, I actually fit somewhere

I am very aware of people's genders pronouns and such in that sense

I'm very aware that my current boyfriend is a cisgender male and he's straight you

know I like him because of his masculinity and because of the way he

dresses and he's voice and he's he's hair and stuff that I would associate

with masculinity and it's social constructs but then when I like a woman

it's that I like femininity and that's just my personal taste, and so the women

that I've been with have been very feminine and I think it's a very big

difference for me in the male's I like and the females that I'm attracted to

I remember a few boys calling me a ballerina or something like that

and getting really, really angry at them and then afterwards sort of

thinking about why it affected me so much and I wasn't just on a sort of

purely you know bullying like they're throwing words around it was because

there may have been some truth in the fact that I was perhaps a little more

effeminate - effeminate than some of the other boys

It took me a long, long time so I came out as gay because I thought I was and I

always grapple with you know what like what is bisexual? Can you actually be that?

I struggle with that constantly because I feel like I - it's all dependent

for me on like the environment that I find myself in, the headspace that I find

myself in. Sometimes I'll be a little more gay in certain situations

and a little straighter in others it's determined by that sort of the people

I'm around and and my sense of humor at that at, that time which can sort of sway

how I feel in a social situation and that's hard and it's hard because in

my head there still a there's a way of being when you're straight and a way of

being when you're gay just because you know you look at - in pop culture or

television, film, you've read books about how you know how a straight sort of

brooding man is at the same time you and you think about what a - what a gay

man is or what a more sort of effeminate man is and so the the way to approach a

male and a female to me is something - is different which gets confusing

It feels like there is a sort of a gearshift between dating a girl and dating a boy

So I think now for me it's about sort of exploration and finding out what I

am and who I love and, you know, doing that

my definition bisexuality I think is quite simple. I'm attracted to people

like me and people not like me with great variation

mine is being able to

find anyone sexually attractive regardless of sex or gender or even

their presentation. So I consider that it is a subset of bisexuality because

bisexuality, my definition is attracted to people of both the same gender and

different genders where but I find my issue with that is that your own gender

identity kind of plays into the attraction you feel to other people

whereas I don't find that my gender identity - like I'm female but it doesn't

really affect me I just am female

well it obviously it varies a lot from person

to person, for me it is the attraction to anyone of any gender like it does not

bother me, it's very rarely comes up, gender doesn't - like I don't think oh I can't

like that person because they're not a boy or they're not a girl or they're not

non-binary like I just, anyone I see who's attractive I'm like I am

attracted to you. I know some people say that bisexuality is the attraction to

two or more genders which is my favorite definition of it because I think that

that's the most inclusive of everyone's experiences. People like sort of try to

force me into identifying as pan, like I've just always, like growing up when I

was questioning my sexuality I always thought like maybe I'm bisexual

I never thought maybe I'm pansexual so I have like I guess just a long intrinsic

connection with bisexuality that makes me more liable to identify as it what

bothers me is when people tell me I have to identify that way. I think policing

other people's identities is really problematic.

- it's good for people to know

- that their label, if they want one, is up to them

I've questioned myself before, I've been like does that mean I'm pan

Thenit gets to this like very gray area where I

don't know what the definitions are anymore and I sit there and I freak out and

I think the thing is, that no matter who you love if you can just accept

that that's what you are and what you're going to feel you're going to be really

happy. I think as soon as I start questioning all that stuff I go into thi

like weird academic world of what things mean and what we are and at the end of

the day they're words labels are fantastic because I can say I

am a bisexual and I'm proud but I - I shouldn't have to say that

My understanding is that where

pansexuality and bisexuality tend to differ is that bisexuality tends to more

stick within the gender binary a bit. I have had people say to me that whilst

It sticks within the gender binary they do feel attraction towards people who are trans

but again a lot of them will say they feel attraction to people who are trans

within the gender binary so trans men or trans women, less frequently gender fluid

a gender and all that kind of stuff whereas pansexuality is regardless of

gender so it's more about, I think, the emotional for me, in that you can feel

that attraction to anyone because you're not so much attracted to them as their

gender you are more attracted to who they are personality and who they are

their soul.

I kind of just think it's that, you know, age old saying love is love

the way I think about it is like we're just people you know that whole like, gender

is a social contract, thing, I eye roll but it's true. Love is not about physical

stuff or physical parts, it's about personality and that's so much more

complex than physicality

So for me it's just not seeing gender at all, when I In terms of my sexuality

so it's being attracted to everyone essentially

no matter where they are on the gender spectrum, trans, not trans

cis, anybody, yeah

being pansexual, not many people actually know what that means

a lot of the time I just tell them I'm bi because it's easier because they

don't understand and I constantly have to explain myself over and over again

and even then when you say I'm bi it's like oh well you're just confused I

think sometimes being queer can feel, like, being queer or bisexual or

pansexual can feel very lonely because you do get a lot from gay and lesbian

people sort of going off just phase you're not fully out yet. Quite often it

can be viewed as kind of a stopping point on the way to being fully gay and

then you also have sort of straight people who think oh it's just a phase

you know everyone goes through that queer lesbian phase in college you'll

get over it especially if you then have a partner who is of the opposite gender

so I have dated both men and women since coming out. You kind of do see almost a

little bit of disappointment from gay and lesbian friends when they see me

with a man. Kind of like oh I thought you were one of us

so that can be quite tough. Bi Erasure and Bi visibility is a really big issue

I mean I'm fairly certain I stayed in the closet and considered myself

straight for so long cause it was just the easier option of I like men as well so

I'm probably straight. That and the first time I tried to sort of do anything

about it I had some really, really terrible sex with girls. It was just awful

like if they ever see this, I'm sorry it was awful on my part as well. It was

just, yeah awkward fumbly terrible and I was like

okay cool I'm straight then that has settled that I am into dudes and no, no I wasn't

and you know people always say oh no clearly you know bi now, gay later

or whatever which is interesting because I never went through a like just a

bisexual stage I just went like straight to - straight to gay

and then you know went in reverse

there's a lot of really negative

stereotypes which sort of were a lot of the reason why it took me so long to

come to terms with my sexuality. Growing up I had a lot of relatives who were like

they were like I'm fine with gay people and straight people that's fine but

bisexuals are just greedy. They're making things up, they can't pick, like they

don't exist. Like, I had a lot of relatives were like I don't believe in

them, very adamantly, and so I guess that was kind of ingrained in me I was like

no that can't be me because they don't exist

because people just don't get it

they don't they sort of think especially if you're something other than gay or

straight if you sit somewhere in the middle I find that people assume that

you're automatically really driven by sex and you're, you know, sexually

attracted to everyone and that's all you think about, when it's nothing like that

at all

it's usually - I hate saying this, but from the experiences I've had it's from

within the community and from lesbian and gay people. I've been like surely you would

understand the struggle

I was in year 12

I was out at Poof Doof, you know I was dancing with

this girl I really liked her and I was like I get your number and everything we

were talking and she like asked me what I was and I was like I'm bisexual, I was like yeah, this is what I am

And it was just kind of like her face dropped and it was just like

Oh, so you've been with guys?

And I was like, yeah? She was like sorry, I don't do that and she what like - I watched the back of

your head go into the dance floor before and I was like what the f***

I've never - I never even thought that was real that people did that

Oh, what did she say?

I've never been with a chick who's had a dick, and she walked off [laughs]

And I was like, okay bye, I'm sorry. It was so uncomfortable. And then like

You get those people who are like, but aren't we all a little bit bisexual?

And I'm like, yeah, you could be. If you are that's great

But, like, don't devalue my experience by saying that

there we're all something

what you're feeling is valid. You're not crazy and you know that age old saying

It gets better, or as some drag queens say it gets better

I think that's really

important to take your time and not be afraid. I know this sounds so cliche - not

be afraid to reach out to people who you trust

and don't be the bystander

You know don't be the bystander when it happens to you cause I've been the

bystander when it's happened to me. I just sort of been like, ha, laugh it off, walk away

act like it never happened and I was the bystander to my own bullying and

that doesn't help anyone. Doesn't help the bully, doesn't help you, and doesn't

help the people who saw

There's some really great resources that I was led to

like Minus 18 is fantastic, if you go on their website and just search for everything

like it's all there anything you might be feeling you will find something that

helps you understand what that means and what it is and that there's

names for it

Being honest with yourself is the most important thing, cause at the end

of the day like you're the one you have to go to bed with. It doesn't

matter like where you come from, who you're with, what you identify as. If you can't

admit to yourself what you are and who you are then [you're] going to be in a lot

of pain for a long time trying to accept that

people like to see you as something

it's easier for them to deal with you when they know exactly what you are you

You know but I think that it's nice to, you know, stick to your guns and be

fluid, I guess, it's more fun

I am who I am

and some days that's like really flamboyant, other days I'm you know I'll

sit down and watch an episode of RuPaul's Drag Race and then I'll

go and like watch the Richmond Tigers lose

you know which - and I don't think that anyone should have to like - should say

any different

when you're coming from a background where you're kind of taught

well, being anything other than straight is bad, you'll go to hell you know

it's frowned upon and often people can be

you know cast out from families, from churches. It was really nice to find

these people who were happy you know because up until then a lot of the

people I'd come across who were struggling with their sexuality had been

really unhappy about the fact that they were not straight. A male friend who was

gay who had so much trouble accepting that about himself, that he was closeted

for years in a really bad depression because he was very religious and he

didn't want to lose that community that's really hard to see and think, well

yeah okay I'm like that you know because that kind of is like accepting

unhappiness but when you find people who are from that community who are living

their lives happily and fighting for rights and you know actually getting the

good things in life, it actually makes it like it - it's okay and you're not going

to be unhappy

What is Love? | Episode 6. How do I know I'm gender non-binary? (Part 1) - Duration: 24:40.

What on earth is a non-binary? well, this is going to be quite a process so bare

with me. The gender binary refers to the way that our society has constructed

gender. Two genders, male and female. And we're all basically more or less aware

of transgender, so you can be male and transition to female, or you can be female

and transition to male. But what hasn't really been spoken about until recently

is what is in between. This is the non-binary space. You'll also hear

references to maybe a-gender or gender fluid, gender-neutral

all applicable, all the same idea. Since we've just been talking about sexuality

I'll compare it this way. So we have gay and we have straight and we've just seen

a lot of what comes in between so bisexuality, pansexuality, asexuality

aromantic, anything, nothing at all. The same applies to gender and its fluidity

because I suppose it's so new there is not a lot of language that defines it

just non-binary this refers to being inside this binary and feeling neither

male nor female or being outside of the binary and not conforming to any of it

genderless you could say. If you actually sit down and think about what it means

to be a boy or a girl or a woman or a man you might start to see some holes as

society is now starting to break down the stereotypes associated with these

roles more and more. So we're going to meet some non-binary people we've

already spoken to Enoch and Rayne and Rae a bit we're going to meet a couple more

but before we do that we're going to talk to some cis gender people so as I

said cis female, cis male, just female just male. We're going to talk about

gender roles and stereotypes and we're going to talk a little bit about how

this is actually really harmful for a large group of people. The importance

that we've put on it. So if we start to look at it a little deeper you'll see

that all of the discrimination faced by diverse genders and sexualities is

because of gender. If no one cared about gender, if we didn't put such

an importance and structure on gender no one care what gender you were dating

or marrying or transitioning to or identifying as. Further on you wouldn't

get paid less because of your gender, you wouldn't be seen differently because of

your gender. Feminism wouldn't be a thing. I know that that is big call and it's an

intimidating concept but it's true. I am not coming after cis gender identity

there's nothing wrong with it I am cis gender. I am female. I am a

feminist because today in 2017 that is important. I can only speak for myself but

definition of feminism is gender equality across the board. It's just as

much for guys as it is the gals as it is for trans as it is for non-binary

babes. Gender equality across the board. To quote FEM power

what I'm trying to say is

that we're all fighting the same battle. We are all allies. It's starting to

happen. This movement is starting to find its ground even creating this series

when we started our Vimeo account and the YouTube account we had options where

we could select different genders that were outside of male and female. It's

actually going to be really easy as soon as any resistance to this understands

that there is no threat. We get to live our lives comfortably every day as cis

people. It's time to let those who don't identify as such have a little bit more

safety and comfortability in exploring and identifying as their true selves. So I

hope that this will inspire you to educate about the gender binary and you

can lead that education with kindness and compassion and patience and love

My name is Adam Noviello I'm 24 years old and I am a gay male

Hi my name is Alanna Baschera

I'm 19 and I identify as a bisexual cisgender female

My name is Callum Sandercock I'm 23 years old and I'm pansexual

I'm Ellie I'm 28 and I'm a queer woman

I'm Sam I'm 24 and I identify as a male who likes men

Alex 26 bisexual

My name is Kristen I am 28 years old and I am a lesbian

But at the moment I am in Justin Teliqure mode

He's also 28 and he's bisexual

hi I'm Kyle Chapman I'm 23 and I'm cisgender white male and I'm gay

I'm Alanah I'm 19 and I'm bisexual

my name is Louis Hanson I'm 21 and I am a gay cis male

My name is Ruby Clark I am 24 years old and I identify as human

Hi my name is Robbie

I'm 25 years old and I'm a drag queen from Melbourne, my drag name is Lazy

Susan and I'm also a cis white gay man

Hi I'm Angela I'm 55 years old

I identify as heterosexual and a Christian and the mother of a gay son

Hi I'm Nick I'm 24 years old and I'm a same-sex attracted male

So I identify as male as my gender

and my sexuality I attribute to being homosexual

But my stylistic expression is androgynous and gender fluid

and that is is purely because that's how I'm comfortable

It's purely about how I feel confident and strong

and feel like I'm actually myself

So you know there are plenty of gay males who dress in a typically masculine way

and that's them, but for me

I feel comfortable and feel good and feel like

I am living authentically

In terms of the way I dress and everything I sort of really am

connected to and inspired by gender fluidity and through androgyny because

I've always felt comfortable pushing boundaries in terms of what I wear

I've never ever felt 100% comfortable in a suit

I've never felt myself in just like t-shirts and jeans and things like that

Quite recently one

of our recent opening nights of the show I wore a really beautiful Jack London

blazer but I wore black shorts and high heels and it was not at all an attempt

to make a statement or it wasn't at all a kind of showy thing it was more that

this is - I feel comfortable and I feel happy walking around like this

It revolves around my mood for the day or just wanting to experiment and it's more

about things like painting my nails and how I wear my clothes than like the

clothes in particular, if that makes sense?

- absolutely

- what are your thoughts then on gender stereotype clothing?

I could talk for hours about this

- hit me

I can't fathom walking into a store and then

half of the clothes on this side is designated for men and half for women

I just can't even fathom how a piece of fabric hanging from your skin can

somehow define who you are or what your roles in society should be, I just don't

get it. Because to me it's just a piece of fabric

I love really colourful

dresses and things like this is one of my favourite dresses which is why I wore it

yeah just lots of colours, yellows, pinks

this is my favourite lipstick

I guess you could call it like really feminine but I

also don't like gendering [laughs] people's style

I find the guys style so boring so

boring and doesn't change and you get all this like fabulousness in girls

clothing. They play with - it's like art, it is art

one of my friends has described

me, and I think it's kind of a perfect description, as a lazy femme. I present

quiet kind of traditionally stereotypically girly like long ish hair

I quite like makeup but I'm also really lazy so like if I put effort into the

top half of my body then it's going to be track pants on the rest of me. I think

it's kind of bullshit that things are stereotyped for genders like I like to

wear dresses and things like that but I don't see that as really having anything

to do with my gender so much like I think anyone who wants to wear a dress

should be able to wear a dress I think anyone who wants to wear pants

should be able to wear pants. I would really love to see a time when it's

completely normal for people to dress however they feel comfortable and

for that to have nothing to do with their gender identity or it can like if it's

important to you that wearing a dress is part of your gender identity then that

should be fine as well. I think people should just be allowed to wear clothes

or you know if you don't want to wear clothes and that's fine too just there

are colonies for that

just yeah do what makes you happy

and I was actually thinking

about this on the way here when I was having my wardrobe meltdown and being

like what am I going to wear. I wore something last year that's something I

wouldn't normally wear. I got shamed for it in public, someone just didn't like

what I wore and from that made me feel really uncomfortable in what I was

wearing. There needs to be a lot more acceptance, it's such a big -

There's such a greater journey to be had but all I say is like dress the way you want to dress

- do you feel like you'd wear more extravagant things that there was more permission to do so?

That's a change I feel like I'm going through now. I feel like I'm slowly

broaching that gap because I remember even like two years

ago think that's like a girl's piece of clothing like I could never wear that

whereas now I've got like catsuits, I've got - like you name it I got it. No that's a lie

but I will own it in the end

This was like a woman's vest, women's pants

women's shoes, everything I have is women's and that's just out of

preference. I just cannot understand how that it can be so segmented and

compartmentalized in fashion. It just, I can't. I cannot with it! [laughs]

I think it's really interesting that we can look at someone's outer body and have a really

like strong judgment or opinion on that outer body when that's not them. When I'm

looking at you right now like yes you're Jemma but that that's not Jemma like Jemma's

inside of that vessel and so I find that really interesting that we can

dress up our vessel which is our body to represent what's inside I guess and what

you feel like you are inside you can express externally because like this

isn't me like this is just hands that I've been given and I'm inside this body

This is just a face that I was given. I can't help that I have this face, I can't

help that I have these hands but I can help when I put on this face, I can help

what I put on these hands and on my body and that's what makes me feel

comfortable about being in my vessel

I'm pretty passionate about you know

masculine gender expectations and how I relate to almost none of them really and

you know growing up that in some ways terrified me, it's something I love about

about being gay, is that you get to you get to say like ***k gender standards, sort of

***k anything like yeah it's very liberating to get to say not only does that not

naturally relate to me but I don't have to - I don't have to do any of that stuff

what's the worst that anyone can say to you? What are you poof?

You didn't get the job [laughs]

You're untalented

That's the worst thing someone could say to you

Yeah, if someone called that out the car window I'd be devastated

we don't see long hair is for girls and and beards for men

and all these different things and because that's the way you are when

you're younger. I think that's the beauty about meeting transgender people as well

I'm like wow just, you're so you

just somebody just owning themselves and I feel like

sometimes I don't know how to own myself and the space I'm in and the clothes I

wear and the way I do my hair and how I do my eyebrows and you know I've put up

with so much weight on who I am and then what I'm feeling and my labels and at the

end of the day for I'm happy with who I'm with and who I am and where I am

then if anyone questions that they can ***k off

Hannah Gatsby in her show that was talking about how

you know even now it's when babies are born there's a gender like

placed on them immediately which is like you know you've got a bald baby and

where you've chuck a little bright blue headband on them or a little pink

headband on them you know at a few weeks old and that determines who they sort of

are or who they should be. It's nice to see that that is sort of changing

they're just letting - letting kids be whoever they want to be, but clearly

there's a long way to go

I've been like collecting photos of unnecessarily

gendered food, like the man burger at this burger place in the city and the

man salad at sumo salad and the lady parma at this pub in Melbourne that's

just a smaller version of the actual parma which makes me so angry

There doesn't need to be gendered toys in the kids aisle at Kmart, just put them all

together and let the kids pick what appeals to them and if we did that and

if we didn't market certain things at boys and certain things that girls and I

can promise you that there will be boys picking up so many feminine toys because

they haven't been taught that they're not supposed to

so I work as a relief

teacher during the week. Every day I go into different

schools and the kids always come up to me I introduce myself as Kristin's, that's fine but

they always come to me and go are you a boy or a girl, every single day without

fail and even though I write my name mrs. whatever on the board they still

say no no you're a boy, I'd say why am I a boy? Oh, because you have short

hair. Well girls can have short hair, boys can have long hair. So I try to educate

them, it's quite interesting the fascination with kids trying to

understand what gender is and what sexuality is and I try not to go ok boys

in this corner girls in this corner, I try to include everybody which I think is

hard for teachers to kind of not do that but I think it's really important to

start trying to see them as people instead of boys and girls

I hate the

binary way of thinking and I hate that it's there and the assumption that

comes with the binary obviously assumes a hierarchy and privilege and it really

does exclude a lot of people that obviously do not conform to this or this

I am really big on respecting people's pronouns obviously that's so important

and I think there definitely needs to be so much more of a focus on that in

society like so many people have no idea what gender-neutral pronouns are like

I've mentioned it to a few people and they're like what does that mean? Like

one of my friends came out as a non-binary recently and I had to explain

it to my dad and he had no idea what was going on he was like what? Like there's

just been absolutely no education about those kinds of things at all and it

really is so important that we start having that conversation a lot more

because I mean I only graduated high school three years ago but there was

nothing that taught me about sexuality or gender or anything so when I had a

few friends come out as trans and non-binary I had no idea what that meant

and I had to seek out all this information myself which I was more than

happy to do but I kept thinking to myself why this is so important how

school missed this, how does school keep teaching me really irrelevant maths

problems and not this really important part of society like it just gets

completely ignored in sex ed, it's never brought up, not once, not even mentioned

that some people identify with the gender different to that that they were

assigned at birth and I just think that's so sad, it was always just like

girls have periods and boys don't and that was it. And that's so untrue because

like trans men have periods, non-binary people have periods like it's so behind

it is quite important to understand where someone's coming from and what

kind of pronouns they would like to be known as, like I was seeing a non-binary

person for a while and one of the first questions I asked them was so tell me more

about your gender and that just opened up a whole discussion to understand what

they wanted from me and what - how I could like help to ease the situation

- what did they want from you?

they just wanted to be called they and not he or she and yeah

they were pretty easy going about it and I didn't once mess up their pronouns

which was great because it took me a while and when I was talking my friends

about them at times I was like, oh, no, you know, it's hard to get used to it but

after a while it was pretty easy. I try not to gender people very often like I

quite often don't even refer to my friends as he or she even if they do

like even if they do prefer to be called he or she I kind of just try to leave

gender out of it, leave gender out of most parts of my life

I come from a very

sort of straightforward easy place on that because my pronouns are she and her

I'm a cisgender woman, I present as femme it's really, really easy for me but I

know that there are a lot of other people who don't feel comfortable with

pronouns that are gendered and they would prefer they and them and that's fine, that

should be absolutely fine. I don't see any problem with it. I know that there

are some people who go on about it being grammatically incorrect, I've heard that

lot which just seems like the stupidest argument. If it makes you happy or at

least just comfortable in your own skin because they, then that's fine. But I do

screw it up all the time. I find myself constantly misgendering friends who

use they/them pronouns and I feel like an asshole every time I do it. I think

the important thing is just to correct yourself and apologize

it's put us in a really bad place where like men are so far ahead

because they're men and they've always been told that they're the leaders

they're the strong ones, they're the tough ones and women are supposed to be subservient

and complacent and pretty and quiet and do the cooking and the cleaning and the

housework and the raising of the kids and that is just so not relevant in

today's society yet we still focus on it so much

and the only way that I can see

it progressing in any way shape or form is through visibility and through

representation. We need a whole lot of people in our community putting their

hands up and being visible and saying this is who I am and through teaching

and educating because I feel like it's so easy to shut out these issues if it

doesn't apply to you or if you don't know anyone who's going through these

issues or these people who have these different beautiful identities it's so

easy to just shut out the issue but we need to be bringing it into the

foreground of this dialogue, we need to be starting it, we need to be saying

hello yes this is me like this is all of us, we're so unique, we're so different

and that is ok. We need more people putting our hands up and saying this is

who I am and I'm unapologetic about that

it is a problem the way that society, if

you want to generalize, has built gender norms because we live in a really

heteronormative society where heterosexuality is the norm and anything

outside of that is other and to categorize a huge amount of people into

an other is discrimination so I think that as a culture we need to try really

hard not to make gender that isn't heterosexuality other and just to see it

and accept it and move on and I guess that's the only way that you're going to

change anything is to understand and become educated on that topic and to see where

people are coming from and to have friends who are LGBTIQA because that's

just you know that's the only way that you're going to get comfortable with

it and to understand it in a better way

I am really proud to be a woman, as a feminist

I think that women have come so far over the last few decades and I'm really

proud - I do identify very strongly as a woman and I don't think that gender

should be removed in the sense that we should stop existing as men and women

and non-binary people and start existing as just I'm a person like I definitely

think we should still have the ability to identify with the gender that fits

us more strongly. It's going to be a long time before gender can be eradicated in

the way I was talking about, like gender roles and gendered colours and gendered

clothes, that's not going to happen overnight, that's not going to happen for

a very long time unfortunately because I think it would be amazing if it did

I remember the first time that someone that I was really close to came out as

trans and it was really hard for the first year to figure out my like my shit

about like not like that I was uh what are you doing but just like they're

like you go to use the pronoun you've grown to know that person in and now

when I - when someone that I know comes out as trans or you know identifies [as something] else

like it's a lot more easier for me to pick up the vernacular and actually use

the correct pronoun so I'm really excited for when I am like old news and

there's like a whole generation of kids who grew up just being like sorry how

would you like to identify? Like, how do you see yourself? Because it is that next

question of just not assuming that everyone is straight which is the world

that I grew up in and now it's that next level of like not assuming that everyone is

the gender that they were assigned at birth or that they even subscribe to a gender

and we're just like we're going through the revolution moment which means that there's always going to be

this agitation and frustration from people inside the community and from people outside the community

and it's gonna be hard like it's gonna be hard for everyone involved and I think that that's a good thing

Like it needs to be that adjustment and people should be consciously trying to adjust themselves

to allow for everyone to identify how they are

for everyone to be themselves goddamn it

I sound like an ikea commercial now but yes
