    Hey guys,

    I wanted to compile a list of Youtube videos which do a really good job of explaining prevalent FtM transgender issues and topics. It would be really awesome if you guys could contribute some of your favorites for me. I'm trying to make a resources "playlist" that I can give to people (such as family or friends), to help educate them on what I'm going through.

    I'm looking for specific videos, not just channels. Though if you do have a good channel in mind, you can list it also. Some examples are listed below, though are by no means limited to:

    What does transgender mean?
    What is gender dysphoria?
    Importance of names & pronouns?
    What is binding/packing?
    Trans statistics and risks?
    Information on surgeries?
    Steps to getting T?
    Gender therapy info?
    Advice for family & allies?
    Legal steps for trans-people?
    Good transition collages or results?

    And anything else you can think of that would be a valuable addition. Please contribute! This is important and any help is good help.

    Thanks in advance.
    -Peter-

    So I've been looking for appropriate videos and I think I found a couple. I'll add more if/when I find them.

    Dara Hoffman-Fox, gender therapist:
    What does transgender mean - http://youtu.be/e3jeT9_RWn0
    Coming out to your parents as trans (if it helps) - http://youtu.be/3_eQr6jmmBY

    She has a few good videos on her channel that look into some more of your questions.

    UppercaseCHASE:
    What is gender dysphoria - http://youtu.be/yXBPHnLCAQE

    I remember you including Chase in a list when we talked about FTM YouTubers, so you may have seen a few of his videos which explain some of your video questions well. So I won't list them all.

    Buzzfeed:
    Pronouns (though I think this advice works well for names, too) - http://youtu.be/N_yBGQqg7kM

    Typing Buzzfeed and transgender brings up a couple of good videos.
