Popular YouTuber Jeydon Wale Comes Out As Transgender
“Hi, my name is Jeydon Wale and I am female to male transgender — holy shit.”
So reveals the popular YouTube star in an emotional video posted on November 13th, in which Wale says he’s “always been a boy… [but] my body said otherwise at birth.”
I felt so alone. The people around me were not accepting me…I felt like I was suffocating. I felt like I was drowning. I felt like my skin was smothering me and I was trapped in my body and it honestly felt like a nightmare that was never, ever going to end,” he said.
“I never thought people would love and accept me for who I am…I just can’t thank you enough; thank you for letting me be myself, something the world was trying so hard to take away from me…You guys are the reason why I’m still here and I want to show you how happy I am.”
