bullies in school
Hey there Buck,
Thanks for getting back to me on tumblr it means a lot for me, you are such a huge inspiration to me and my friends. I’m apart of a GSA in my school, and we do all sorts of activities that would help our school be more accepting with who people are, and that bullying isn’t the answer of stopping someone from being gay/bi/trans and so on. I think it would be amazing if we were able to arrange something for you to come to my town and talk to our school and our GSA that people should be able to feel comfortable who they are in their own skin, and not be worried about who they are because of bullies in school.
Hope to hear back from you, thanks[:
Thanks for writing. It make me feel great that I can be an inspiration to you. When I was your age there were no role models or people I could look up to. That is one of the reasons I do what I do. I am not sure who books the speakers from you school but like I said before they can go to my speakers website here http://buckangelentertainment.com/ to see my work and contact me. I would love to come that would be amazing. i think I could really help to change some minds there. Young people need to see people like us and not have a preconceived notion about us.
I usually have a big impact. So let me know and like I said before keep you head held high!
WOOF!

I am a trans guy (FtM) and im only 16 years old
Hi there Buck
Im R, And im a big fan from sweden and admire all the inspiration you give to people,
and your speeches inspire me alot too C:
I am a trans guy (FtM) and im only 16 years old and trying to be who i really are
even if im not proud of it.
Im just curious if you are going to speak at pride in Gothenburg 2012?
i heard that you were in stockholm but i couldn’t make it there
and it would be nice too be there.
Thank you so much for the email and letting me inspire you to be yourself. Sorry to hear you are not proud of yourself I do hope that will change.
Learn to just not care what the world thinks of you, It is important to love yourself then everything else will come.
As for Gay Pride in Gothenburg no I do not think I will be there.
Maybe I will have the chance to speak again in Sweden next year.
WOOF!

You are a true inspiration to me
Hi man, how are you?
I’m a transguy from Sweden. I wrote to you on youtube.com and i was so happy about your respond.
I knew you were going to Stockholm Pride this year and i would love to have been there, but i couldn’t make it because I didn’t have the money..
Some of my friends went to hear you speak and I saw you on TV. I regret so hard that I didn’t make the opportunity to meet you and hear you out.
You are a true inspiration to me and i don’t have anyone to talk to about what I’m going through.
I started my hormones for about 3 weeks ago and I feel great, but it would be nice to have a friend who actually knows what he’s talking about.
I don’t have any trans friends and it get’s kinda lonely even though I have a fiancé. She is so amazing and loving. She was my missing piece of The puzzle of Life.
I’ve been trying to get a hold on your new film; Sexing the transman XXX. It’s not very easy to find here in Sweden, i’m afraid. :(
I think your film would help me and my girl to explore ourselfs and our sexuallity in a way that we’re not familiar with yet.
Anyway. I just wonder if you’re ever coming to Sweden again sometime soon? It would mean a lot to me to meet you in person.
I know you think it’s weird and all with all these fans and I’m sorry if I’m one of them, but I can’t help that you are the most admireable
person I’ve ever seen. ;)
Hope you’re having an amazing day!
Tell your wife I said hi! (I’m a piercer too, so i’ve heard a lot about her.)
Best Regards,
Thank you so much for your email! Sorry we missed each other in Sweden I hope to back again next year. The Outsiders show has been really great for me so many Swedish people have seen it and really are so happy. I hope this can help swedish transmen be able to be more excepted there.
As for your trans friends. When I started my transition it was the same for me because I did it so long ago and there was really no one doing this. So the friends I had hated me for having a sex change. I think there is a really good trans awareness group in stockholm.You should find out how to go to meetings and hang out with them.
I don’t think any shops are selling Sexing the Transman XXX in Stockholm because the shops are very few. But you can always order it from the website I can ship it to Sweden

I will tell my wife hi from you!
Thanks again for emailing and hope that you have a great transition! Stay healthy and love yourself!
WOOF!!

The way you hold a mirror to the society and their gender norms is an inspiration
Hey Buck,
I just became aware of yourself and watched the video where you talk about a hate mail you received. What a shame! I am sure those aren’t the only kind of emails you would receive, but I still think it’s important that we praise as much as the ones that hate.
Well…What a beautiful man inside and out! The way you hold a mirror to the society and their gender norms is an inspiration to many more than the haters I would guess. You keep it up, and derive strength whenever you need, from the fact that in the distant corners of the world, there are people, not necessarily transgender or gender nonconformotive, just people, who are inspired by you simply because you are a remarkable and an inspirational man.
Much love from Istanbul,
Thank you so much for taking the time to email me with kind words. I do get many many emails like yours and really not as many hate ones. But I though it was very important to address those as well.
Hate is a very scary thing and many people hate me or my message because they do not want to understand. That is ok because there are people like you who get a positive message from me and really that is the most important.
People are not always going to like what I have to say and that is ok too.
Thanks again for taking the time.
WOOF!!
