Ro Boat
Transgender man
The T in Listen (Support Group)
Ako si Ro Boat, isang transgender man, at ito ang aking storya sa panahon ngayon ng
pandemya.
Isa akong content creator sa Youtube, ang mga content na ginagawa ko ay mainly
focused on transgender men’s health and wellness. My aim is to educate our transgender
brothers about basic SOGIESC and also the proper and safe way to undergo Hormone
Reinforcement Therapy (HRT).
During this pandemic, a lot of our trans brothers felt hopeless about their transition. I
feel for them because this is very personal to them, it is their dream, of being their true self.
Kaya naman I decided to really focus on their issues and concerns. I created videos on how
they will be able to have their consultations online via Victoria by Loveyourself.
Also I experienced the true hearts of our trans brothers, their resilience during this
unthinkable crisis. Some of my trans brothers recommended and shared trans-friendly doctors
that we can ask for consultations. It made me really realize that proper information for transition
is very necessary for my trans brothers; because I believe that little information is a dangerous
thing.
Nagpapasalamat din ako sa bumubuo ng PFTM ang aking mga kuya, dahil sa kanila
ako natuto ng mga naiishare ko sa aking youtube platform. Their insights are comforting for
me, because napapagtalunan ko ang aking anxiousness about the things I didn’t know before
I joined this organization like top surgeries and the likes.
Hindi na ko nakabalik ng trabaho. Kung kaya I tried to focus on my online selling
business, I sell transgender men related stuff such as tapes and beard growers. Pero yun nga
dahil mahina ang demand, mahina rin ang benta. It feels so depressing to be in this situation
that I really felt hopeless.
