Well, happy International Transgender Visibility Day, guys.
If you didn't know that existed until today, neither did I, actually.
Neither did I.
And this is coming from a trans person, actually.
And a lot of you guys think I'm disrespectful.
And you always tell me, oh, you're making fun of trans people?
Well, first of all, we don't call them trans anymore.
We've evolved beyond that.
We call them T people, right?
Because you couldn't use the word.
That's now just reserved for cars only.
And then we short it to trans.
Now, trans is actually objectifiable.
So now you need to actually use T people.
Anyway, welcome back to the Daily Dose, of course, with your favorite queer person of color, me, Elijah Schaefer.
Today's going to be a great show.
We're going to talk about all things people of the letter T.

Anyway, is this a real holiday?
Is this real?
I don't know.
I'm not sure it's real because sometimes I don't know if it's the right trolling the left on Twitter that makes these hashtags just to make fun of them or if this is a real thing.
So I looked it up and today really is International Transgender Day of Visibility.
I know that because there's a website here called outsports.com.
Yes, gay people play sports too.
Who would have known?
But it says here that today, March 31st, is the day on the calendar that is marked by many transgender people around the world as a day of personal pride, presence, and persistence.
Nice alliteration.
The International Transgender Day of Visibility or TDAV.
You thought I was bad if I calling myself a QPOC, a person, a queer person of color.
Well, I'm a Q person of color and today's TDAV.
Stick with it, kids.
Get down the lingo.
It's certainly being celebrated in a different way this year due to the global emergency caused by the spread of the coronavirus pandemic.
TDAV was founded in 2009 by Rachel Crandall, a licensed psychotherapist specializing in trans issues.
Social media is already brimming with posts showing support from people, corporations, and places all over the planet.
And if you don't celebrate this, you're a transphobic bigot.
And if you do celebrate this, then you can pat yourself on the back because while you're a terrible person, you're a gossip and a slanderer, you're sexually promiscuous and alcoholic, at least you used a hashtag on Twitter to make up for your useless piece of filth of a life that you call your very own.
Anyway, that's not for me to talk about.
But we got a lot of people celebrating it.
We got Mona from the Vanilla Queen.
Today's Transgenders.
Here's some pics of me spanning from 2010.
To be honest, I'm not making fun of trans people at all.
And I'm not being a jerk.
This trans person looks better as a woman than a man.
If you're going to transition, like I say, at least do it right.
Don't Caitlin Jenner yourself.
You know what I mean?
You don't want to look worse when you're coming out.
But anyway, even Wikipedia, it's on Wikipedia.
And right here, you see it's International Transgender Day of Visibility.
If it's on Wikipedia, then it's real.
You know that, right, kids?
But I was going, well, what is it?
How do we celebrate it?
And if you were like me and you woke up this morning, you go, holy hell, it's Trans Visibility Day.
What can I do to celebrate this day?
How do I celebrate it while I'm cooped up in my house trying to fight off a global pandemic?
I'll tell you what.
If you want to get your mind off of trans, I mean, the coronavirus for a day and think about trans people instead, which I know is a lot of you guys watching this video.
I found this great article by transstudent.org.
Apparently, trans people go to school too.
I found that out today as well.
I didn't realize they're very talented people.
But it turns out there are 10 things you can do on Transgender Day of Visibility.
Number one, you can go to local transgender day.
See, a lot of these things didn't factor in.
You factored in people changing their gender and going through surgeries and taking drugs, but you didn't factor in China.
So, you know, that's the problem.
What is the biggest factor that's stopping trans people from being visible these days?
It's China.
This is why I don't like the Chinese because the Chinese stop people like me from being seen.
Not to mention, not only can you not go to the events like it's saying, but how are trans people going to be visible when they're literally invisible inside of their homes?
That's a good question, quarantine people.
But here's what you can do.
You can learn about trans history.
You can support local trans-led organizations.
Why are all the trans people black?
I don't know.
That's really weird.
Don't out your trans friends.
You know, I haven't outed Todd, my producer, in a long time.
It's like his surgeries look better than most people that I know.
Honestly, it's his voice.
You can five, know the differences between gender identity, gender expression, sex assigned at birth, sexuality, and emotional attraction.
I don't even know what that means.
Do you?
Find out today on Visibility Day.
But there's a few more, actually.
You were thinking, ding, is there only five things I can do on trans remembrance or not remember?
Sorry, Trans Remembrance Day.
I got to put this point.
I accidentally thought it was Trans Remembrance Day because I myself have a lot to learn in the woke culture.
I found out Trans Remembrance Day is in November.
This is Trans Visibility Day.
Now, I don't know why I can't remember them today.
But if you forget, November is coming and so is another video, apparently.
But number six, you can recognize the intersections of transness.
Did you either know transness was a word?
I didn't, but I found out right now.
And yes, this show is so slapped together last minute every day that I read these articles for the first time on air.
Believe it or not, I know who would have known.
But trans educational resources, black trans lives matter.
We've heard that one.
We do.
I do.
You can make women's spaces encompassing of trans women.
No, you can't.
Imagine it's like, I just go into a woman's locker room.
No.
Okay.
You can learn trans terminology.
This might be a whole nother video we go over how to learn trans terminology.
Todd, take note of this.
Tell people when they say something transphobic or six or sissexist.
Did you know that was a word too?
Cis-sexist.
Look at this.
That's a word.
So cis is the opposite of trans.
You know, we invented the word trans to delineate the fact that some people are not like the rest of us.
Not that they're less valuable, not that they're not important, but just saying, oh, there's trans people.
There's people that like take time to change their physical morphology.
And then they came back and called us like cis people.
And so if you're cissexist, that means that you only prefer cisgendered people, which is the whole idea that if you don't want to date someone who's trans or have sex with someone who's trans, then you are cissexist.
Ladies and gentlemen, we're all learning new things today.
We're actually doing what the article is suggesting while we're on air.
Gosh, we're so woke in this show.
Trans misogyny is still misogyny.
Remember that.
And 10, celebrate and fight for trans lives.
And if that list was more exhaustive and useless than you wanted to know about, it was for me too.
And I'm sorry I put you through that.
But what are the Republicans doing about Trans Visibility Day?
Because I mean, gosh, isn't everybody in the country as excited as the 172,000 people tweeting about this on Twitter?
I don't know.
Let's check in with the Idaho governor.
What is he doing?
Idaho governor bans trans people from changing their birth certificate gender on the eve of International Transgender Day of Visibility.
Okay, maybe not everybody's as on board as I am, and you are with the greatest day in history.
But I will say, I will say this: a lot of people aren't buying this trans ideology because what they're saying is you can't change your biology.
You can play dress up.
And quite frankly, if you get a boob job like Blair White did, you can pass off as a girl.
But that doesn't make you one.
That doesn't define you as that.
And what they're trying to do here is not say that trans people can't be visible.
Because as Steven Crowder said today, believe me, trans people are very visible, we notice.
And that's not a mean statement.
I can tell trans people all the time.
The thing is about this is they're saying, we'll give you the right to be visible, but not the right to change science.
And so you can't go back and change your birth certificate gender because medical treatment needs to be offered to you based upon your real gender.
You cannot have an actual normal gynecologist if you're a trans person.
They might not know how to treat you and you're going to confuse doctors.
And by gosh, doctors already seem to be very confused already as it is with what we're going through with the coronavirus.
So it says here that on the eve of International Transgender Day, the Republican Idaho Governor Brad Little Brad Little signed two bills regarding trans people into law.
The first bans trans people from changing the gender marked on their birth certificates.
And the second prohibits trans females from competing in women's sports.
You know what?
Good.
Thank you, Mr. Little.
Mr. Little, who actually, if you didn't know, Will Witt's dad is the governor of Idaho.
They're a family of littles.
And the thing about this story is, is that I'm not against trans people, okay?
This show is by no means against them.
We love trans people.
In fact, they create about 30% of our content here on the show.
But you're not going to be able to play against my daughter, okay, in some sports.
You're not going to compete against her and take away from her scholarship because men can't outperform.
And we're not going to get to that in this video.
But what I do want to tell you is that a lot of people are celebrating it.
In fact, while I read this article here, I just want to play this video quietly just so you see this.
It says every person featured in this video identifies as trans, gender, non-conforming, or non-binary.
AK, everyone in this video has a therapist.
Flavia is a cisgendered ally and identifies as she or her.
Nobody asked.
I'll take nobody cares for 500.
This video is titled Them.
And we start out here with people touching their boobs and just like, yeah, look, I'm a straight person.
And you want to know why we're not showing you the lyrics is because we're going to get a copyright strike if we do.
And this video is doing so well that it has 340 views.
Now I'm in color because trans people have colored skin too.
And then you then skip through this.
I don't know what this is.
I don't know what's going on here.
I guess it's just, whoa, stop there for a second.
What was going on there?
What was that guy?
I don't even know.
I can't even look at, whoa.
Hey, this person right here, if you're trying to be visible on the street and this is how you look, you are very visible.
There is nobody more visible in society than this man right here, our woman.
I'm not going to miss gender on TV because I'm not a bigot.
You're the bigot.
But if you can tell, if anyone can tell me confirmation, if this is a man or a woman, I'll send you a free pack of stickers in two months because the mail's backed up and I can't get them out to my post office.
Anyway, that being said, I noticed something.
I found this Kool-Aid guy going, oh yeah, trans rights.
Because you got to drink the Kool-Aid to really be down with this indoctrination.
And I wrote this.
I said, you know, today is Trans Day of Visibility.
By the way, follow me on Twitter at Elijah Schaefer.
It says, if you click on the hashtag, most of the trans people featured are very young.
It's almost as if they've never been as common as the media portrays it.
But rather, it's only recently becoming a growing trend due to targeted indoctrination.
So when you look at the people celebrating and have all their surgeries, they're like probably in their early 20s, which is really interesting, which means that people back in like the 40s, there wasn't as many trans people, I don't think.
And yeah, you might say it's because they didn't have access to the surgery or it was suppressed in society and people have been trans.
They just haven't had the ability to come out.
Maybe.
I don't know.
It's still, it's still, it still like makes me uncomfortable sometimes.
But I have trans friends.
I really do.
I have a friend named Dikini who wears dick bikinis that I met at a pride parade while I was interviewing.
Yes, there is a bikini.
And I think that the person spent like $1,200 on it.
And I was as shocked as you were because if I was going to get a dick bikini, I wouldn't spend less than $2,400.
That's some rare stuff right there.
Come on, $1,200 Dikinis.
So I named this person Dikini from here on out.
And I've met Dikini a few times in Hollywood.
Very, very great person, actually.
So I don't really care if you're trans or not.
But I am wanting to notice this.
I'm going to show you this.
If you come down here, of course, Kamala Harris, our favorite trans politician, Nikita Dragoon, I think that's a big trans person.
But these people are all young.
You go down, they're posting anime.
There's no 50-year-olds, unless you're in Japan, posting anime.
What's up with trans people in anime?
I don't know.
But that being said, I want to bring this up.
I want to conclude this with saying the reason why hashtags and days like this exist is not because anybody really cares about the trans people that exist.
It's not because anybody wants to bring visibility to people who are transgender because I feel bad.
If you woke up one day in your body and you said, what the hell is this?
Then you're every single person that's ever lived in the history of the world that's ever looked at themselves in the mirror.
What the hell's wrong with you?
Everybody wants to change their body.
Nobody's fully satisfied.
You're not special because you look in the mirror and you go, oh no, what's this?
I don't like this.
I wish I was different.
So do I.
So do freaking I.
And so does everybody who's watching this video, the four people who made it this long into it.
So you're not special because you feel not like you're not in the right body.
When I drink more than four beers, I wake up and feel like I've gained a second body.
In fact, some of you see the chin that comes on my face when we film because I inconveniently drink too many beers the night before we always film.
And you know what?
I don't get to change and cut off my chin and do all this stuff because I feel uncomfortable.
I accept it.
I embrace it.
And you know what changes I make?
If I want to change my body, if I want to change the outside, it's a symptom of the fact that I need to change what's on the inside because what's on the inside is never going to change through surgery and through money, through investment, through psychology.
And yes, through hashtag trans visibility day.
But it's to influence the kids.
And that's why this article ended with five young transgender activists to know on Trans Day of Visibility.
It is about getting kids familiar with this to confuse our children, to get them on this doctrine, to make them feel like the way that they can change themselves is outwardly and not to grow inwardly.
And we have a culture that celebrates, oh, you should feel so, you should feel so proud of yourself when you brush your teeth in the morning.
That was a bad, that was not a good movement.
That's how I get memed.
When you, you know, oh, I saw a meme that said, if you brush your teeth in the morning, you should feel really good about yourself.
No, you shouldn't.
Don't congratulate yourself for doing nothing.
Congratulate yourself for doing something.
And that something should not be cutting off your genitals.
Anyway, if you do, you're free in this country, and I'm not judging you.
We call them T people here.
I'm one of them.
You can be too if you just believe.
Anyways, have a great rest of the day.
As always, may God bless the United States of America.
