- We Forgot to Break Up (2017) | Trans Male Short Film
Evan Strocker, a trans man played by Canadian trans actor Jesse Todd, has written a memoir about his former bandmates, and meets them backstage to give them a copy of the book. We Forgot to Break Up Short Film 2017 Canada Evan Strocker, a trans man played by Canadian trans actor Jesse Todd, has written a memoir about his former bandmates, and meets them backstage to give them a copy of the book. Watch. Available Summary: After a few years absence, Evan unexpectedly returns one night to face his now-famous former bandmates. The surprise reunion is bittersweet, in this intimate depiction of the knotty complexities of relating to old friends after everything has changed. -Vimeo. Note from Jack: There was one particular moment that I really didn't appreciate, amongst the deliberate misgendering and unapologetic transphobia... A cis woman repeatedly touched the trans man's chest and asked, "Is this real?" What she was referencing is his post-op body, and she was touching him to feel the shape of his chest. Quick tip: Don't do that to any trans person. If you wouldn't repeatedly touch a cis woman's chest to feel if she's had a boob job, don't do it to a person of another gender. If a trans man has not, in fact, had top surgery, and he is just using a chest binder, I really doubt he'd be comfortable with someone touching his chest to feel the shape of it.

- Strange Circus (2005) | Trans Male Movie
Yûji Tamiya, a trans man played by Japanese cis male actor Issei Ishida and Japanese actress Rie Kuwana, takes violent revenge on those who abused him during his childhood. 奇妙なサーカス (Strange Circus) Film 2005 Japan (日本) Yûji Tamiya, a trans man played by Japanese cis male actor Issei Ishida and Japanese actress Rie Kuwana, takes violent revenge on those who abused him during his childhood. Available Summary: The erotic novelist Taeko is writing a morbid story of a family destroyed by incest, murder and abuse. Her assistant, Yûji, sets on a mission to uncover the reality of this story, but the reality might be too much to bear. -IMDb. Jack's Summary: For starters, I highly recommend reading Alyssa Miller's review of this film . Strange Circus deals with many themes which are extremely confronting and deserve dedicated in-depth critique. Miller, a survivor of child sexual abuse, eloquently and thoroughly reviews Strange Circus in a way I simply cannot. In summary, while Miller asserts that the movie is an "incredibly accurate portrayal of the long-term effects of sexual abuse on children", this film will not be watchable for many people. There is gore, child abuse, spousal abuse, incestuous rape, self harm, suicide, torture, forced voyeurism and exhibitionism... the list goes on. My personal opinion is that this movie is grotesque and awful, but that's the aim. If you're really into horror drama and have a very high tolerance for awful shit, you might even enjoy the campy, exaggerated violence with which the trans male gets his revenge. But otherwise, Strange Circus may not be worth the distress it could cause. Within the genre of Japanese ero-guro (huge qualifier there), this is a good film. The trans man who is violent and unpredictable and threatening isn't the embodiment of a classic anti-trans trope . His motivations are thoroughly explored. If anything, he's portrayed as a survivor of years-long abuse, who also has the superhuman strength to exact revenge beyond what most people would be capable of. When it comes to his gender identity, Yûji explains his female-to-male transition by saying, "To me, the body is a vase you put your flowers in... I wanted to be a vase that compliments the flowers." Put simply, he wanted his external appearance (his sex) to match his internal reality (his gender). While also entwined with self-mutilation themes and body horror (his top surgery scars are incredibly unrealistic), his trans identity is ultimately presented as an expression of autonomy and inherent gender incongruence. He felt that he was a man, at heart, so he manifested that truth. Yûji with his childhood self. There is a scene in this film where Yûji walks alongside his younger self, the pair of them literally taking a stroll through their memories and watching as traumatic events play out. It's utterly baffling that this movie, which is disgusting and repugnant in so many ways, could present such a poignant and gentle illustration of a trans man being at peace with who he used to be, and with trauma from his childhood. I wouldn't exactly recommend watching this film... but it is amazing in that way. I couldn't call the ending happy, necessarily, but Yûji is ultimately victorious against his abusers.

- The Good Doctor (S04E09) | Trans Male Character
Rio Guitierrez, a trans man played by American trans male actor Emmett Preciado, is discovered to be pregnant while in hospital. He is in an established relationship with a gay man. The Good Doctor (S04E09) Show 2021 United States of America Rio Guitierrez, a trans man played by American trans male actor Emmett Preciado, is discovered to be pregnant while in hospital. He is in an established relationship with a gay man. Available Summary: Lim is challenged by the unique circumstances surrounding a pregnant patient with an aggressive tumour; after misdiagnosing a patient, Claire makes a disconcerting discovery about certain practices at the hospital. -IMDb. Jack's Summary: This episode uses an autistic character as a vehicle to show what is, and isn't, acceptable to say to trans people (which is my observation as an autistic man myself). A trans man named Rio, who is in hospital to have a brain tumour treated, is discovered to be pregnant, which complicates the treatment options available to him and prompts some inappropriate comments by the autistic protagonist. I did like some aspects of the episode. The trans man is in an established relationship with a gay man, he is played by a trans male actor, he discusses his desire for fatherhood, and the seriousness of his dysphoria is addressed. The autistic protagonist overcomes ignorant views and apologises for sexually-inappropriate comments, which was nice. It was very sweet to see Rio say "we're going to be dads" to his partner. Rio's partner initially insists that it's impossible for Rio to be pregnant, because Rio is on testosterone. This is misinformation, as AFAB trans people could fall pregnant even while on HRT (though the chances are far lower), so birth control is still recommended.

Five trans men are interviewed about their experiences with transitioning and testosterone. Trans Men at 5 Different Stages of Transitioning Interview 2021 United States of America Five trans men are interviewed about their experiences with transitioning and testosterone. Watch. Available Summary: We ask trans men who have been on [testosterone] for different lengths of time the same questions to see how time has shaped their feelings about the experience. -Jubilee, YouTube. Jack's Summary: This is a very sweet video where five trans men, all different ages and with different backgrounds, discuss how long they have been on testosterone and how transitioning has changed their lives. Luckie, the oldest interviewee, has been on testosterone for eleven years. Noah, the youngest interviewee, is yet to start testosterone. Be aware that the video (while it ends on a hopeful and happy note) includes discussions of suicide, deadnaming, misgendering, and being kicked out of home. Everyone's experiences are different, so these men's experiences may not necessarily reflect your own journey on testosterone. Please also note that Jubilee (the channel which posted this video) should be approached with caution overall, as they often present disinformation and bigotry as being legitimate worldviews.

- Chilling Adventures of Sabrina (2018) | Trans Male Show
Theo, who began the series as Susie, is a teenage trans boy played by American non-binary actor Lachlan Watson. He is sexually attracted to guys and gets a boyfriend later in the show. Chilling Adventures of Sabrina Show 2018 United States of America Theo, who began the series as Susie, is a teenage trans boy played by American non-binary actor Lachlan Watson. He is sexually attracted to guys and gets a boyfriend later in the show. Available Summary: Chilling Adventures of Sabrina is an American supernatural horror television series developed by Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa for Netflix, based on the Archie comic book series of the same name... It is set in the fictional town of Greendale. It is a dark coming-of-age story that includes horror, fear and witchcraft. Sabrina Spellman must reconcile her dual nature as a half-witch, half-mortal while fighting the evil forces that threaten her, her family, and the daylight world humans inhabit. -Wikipedia. Jack's Summary: At the beginning of Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, viewers are introduced to "Susie", who is actually a closeted trans boy not freely able to explore his identity. He is played by Lachlan Watson , a trans non-binary actor. The series itself is a weird mix of juvenile and violent (I'm still not sure what its target audience is), but many young folks will likely relate to depictions of dysphoria, same-gender attraction, and masculinity in a trans kid. That being said, hate crimes and sexual harassment are immediately tied to Theo's character arc, and he has to endure some pretty awful experiences before being afforded a cute romance and less violent scenes. Theo in episode 1. The writers waste no time establishing "Susie" as the punching bag of aggressive cis guys. In the very first episode, Sabrina finds him crying alone in the locker room after being hit in the face and sexually assaulted. The jocks who exist solely to torment Theo. In season 2, Theo is sexually harassed while trying to use the boy's changing room, by the same jocks established as antagonists in episode 1. They stare directly at him, deadname him, and say they're "waiting for the show to start" before encouraging him to undress entirely. Later, they fill his locker with menstrual pads and tampons. He's also repeatedly targeted with a lesbophobic slur. Theo coming out to his friends. He comes out to other main characters after a basketball game, during which he beats cis guys with the help of Sabrina, the central character with magical powers. She uses spells to make him shoot the ball perfectly and easily dodge other players, when he was previously unable to play the game at all. This led to criticism from within and outside the trans community, especially from trans guys who were frustrated by the implications of a trans boy being weak and powerless unless he resorts to cheating. I personally agree with this criticism. Dorothea Putnam. Theo chose his new name after his relative, Dorothea Putnam. Dorothea, a masculine-presenting ghost, appears solely to Theo and offers endearments like "brave boy" before Theo has even taken steps to voice his gender identity. This spiritual link and storyline was pretty fascinating but, to my disappointment, the writers didn't explore the Putnam connection very deeply at all. We learn that Theo has an ancestor who dressed "like a man" and helped both witches and mortals escape persecution, but that's about it. Part of the reason I was so interested in Dorothea Putnam was because the Digital Transgender Archive has photographs of a real-life Dorothy Putnam "crossdressing" in masculine attire. Chilling Adventures of Sabrina overall weaves real-life history with fictional timelines, but it's not clear whether Theo's ancestor is inspired by Dorothy Putnam and/or Ann Putnam, an accuser in the Salem Witch Trials. Jesse, a gay man. The only other gender non-conforming character in the show is Theo's uncle, Jesse Putnam. He gets possessed by a demon which refers to him a "sodomite" and an "abomination", citing these qualities as the reason Jesse is the ideal host. Theo's father, brother to Jesse, mentions that Jesse wore their mother's dresses when he was young, leading to physical abuse when he was caught doing so by his father. This behaviour and his attraction to men are referred to as "proclivities". Given the fact that Jesse spends his episodes foaming at the mouth, snarling curses, and then being tortured in the afterlife, this isn't exactly top-tier representation. "I'm not an abomination, Sabrina, and I won't be one." As a result of being psychologically tormented by a possessed Jesse, Theo struggles with his gender identity and becomes ashamed, forcing himself to wear feminine dresses for a short time. Theo meeting Ruth. The only other character to recognise Theo's gender before he comes out is Ruth Walker, a blind woman with psychic powers. She calls him "handsome fellow" and refers to him with he/him/his pronouns. I appreciated the implication that Theo's male gender has always been innate, and that characters with special abilities could sense that part of him. Theo telling his dad the truth. I also enjoyed the scene where Theo comes out to his dad. It's the right balance of positive and realistic, with Theo remaining determined and calm despite his father's initial unwillingness to listen. Joe, Theo's dad, supports him despite feeling confused, and takes him to get a new haircut. That's the end of the story, when it comes to Theo's family journey. We don't see much of Joe beyond that point, beyond the occasional scene, which I enjoy. Theo is allowed to be himself, and there's no extra violence or family conflict which is piled onto him... which is fortunate, considering how much shit Theo faces, courtesy of his classmates. I don't personally think the transphobia directed at Theo is cheap or needless, especially since Theo is afforded an actual personality later on, including hobbies (drumming, singing) and sexual desire (towards other boys). He becomes less of a token character as the show progresses, gaining strength and physically standing up for his friends. The violence directed at him might upset some viewers but, if you want to see a trans boy triumph over transphobic people, this show will provide that. Speaking of Theo's bullies, it's important to discuss one bully in particular; a young man named Billy, who physically abuses and sexually harasses Theo. The show fails to treat the sexual abuse of cis boys/men seriously, and this is especially apparent in Billy's character arc, despite him being framed as the aggressor in most scenes. Before I delve deeply into the issue, I highly recommend the 1in6 Survivor Stories page, to get a better and more realistic understanding of how abuse actually affects boys and men. Hilda Spellman talking about Billy's childhood. To defend Theo, Hilda Spellman outs Billy as a survivor of CA (child abuse), in order to humiliate and humble him. It's heavily implied that he, specifically, was the victim of CSA (child sexual abuse). The abuse occurred at the hands of other boys, and was extreme enough that it provoked violent denial from his family, to the point that his mother washed his mouth out with detergent until he stopped trying to seek help from anybody. This awful, confronting revelation is glossed over. At most, viewers are encouraged to laugh at Billy's vulnerability and deep emotional scars, rather than considering the sickening hypocrisy of outing a CA survivor in the name of supporting another young person. In the same conversation, just for good measure, Hilda outs another young man as being attracted to Billy. Worst of all, in a separate scene, Sabrina uses magic to force Billy to kiss and grope his male friend. She takes a photograph of this occurring and uses it as blackmail to stop him bullying others. He, and his jock friends, are all placed in this non-consensual situation by Sabrina, and this is supposedly a... funny... moment. Even when viewers find out about Billy's history of being abused by his peers, no thought is given to how he must have consequently felt when Sabrina forced him into a situation where he was being kissed and touched without his consent, by his peer. So, to recap... Billy is a survivor of CA, and likely CSA. Either way, he was abused by males at just eleven years of age. The writers (through Hilda's dialogue) assert that, because he was abused, he became an abuser. The answer to this, apparently, is to make a teenage Billy the target of further non-consensual intimacy with a male, and blackmail him over that touching. Pretty fucking horrible, right? Beyond the apathy shown towards Billy's trauma, his arc echoes an old, harmful myth that boys/men who survive CSA automatically become abusive themselves. This is just one example of how Chilling Adventures of Sabrina fails viewers who have themselves survived CSA, specifically men and boys. Nicholas in Chapter Twenty-One: The Hellbound Heart. The misrepresentations of male trauma don't end with Billy. The show also features a cis male character named Nicholas, who is abandoned to suffer alone after being tortured, leading to a horribly-handled allegory for male rape. The parallel to being sexually assaulted isn't subtle, with Nicholas describing how he took his abuser inside him, was stripped naked, was "tortured on the inside" and "humiliated and debased on the outside". He abuses alcohol, drugs, and unsafe sex in the wake of his experiences, viewing his own body as "dirty" and "polluted". He is sexually harassed by women who mock his trauma and suggest that he wanted to be abused, claiming that he had "the hots" for the man who abused him, saying he was made into his abuser's "bitch" and that he enjoyed the abuse. He experiences flashbacks, extreme distress, nightmares, anger, shame, and understandable grief. Unfortunately, an immature Sabrina is solely responsible for fixing him and, shocker, that doesn't end well. Nicholas miraculously gets over being abused, all on his own. The writers don't even bother to show him being supported by an authority figure or therapist/healer of some kind, because God forbid the trauma of a cis guy is taken seriously. Sabrina is established as a poor, downtrodden girlfriend, with Nicholas the selfish antagonist who dared to have a breakdown after being abused. He grovels until she deigns to date him again, and ultimately kills himself to be with her in the afterlife, which really cemented the show's descent into irresponsible and crap storytelling . Considering how trauma often manifests in boys/men , it makes complete sense that Nicholas would become angry in the wake of being abused. The way his anger is handled sends a very alienating message to male viewers who have suffered abuse; if you express how you're feeling and show your anger, you will be left on your own. You will be the bad guy. It's your fault. Handle your trauma alone and get over it, or suffer in a way that is palatable to your partner, AKA the only person who will help you. Don't bother seeking out a safe teacher, doctor, therapist, or community healer. A magical, super fast detoxification ritual to fix alcohol addiction. If you have experienced victim-blaming or been distressed by the erasure/mockery of male survivors, Nicholas and Billy's storylines may distress you. If you have battled addiction, you may experience similar distress. Proceed with caution. Chilling Adventures of Sabrina is a somewhat fun show, but it's not without plentiful flaws. It touches up against serious subjects and doesn't handle them well. The writers were too busy loading Sabrina's dialogue with ham-fisted feminist power slogans to realise that abused men don't just magically heal on their own, and humiliation/abandonment isn't the best way to help a traumatised survivor of any gender. I know that some people, reading this review, will roll their eyes and say, "it's just a dumb show, don't take it so seriously". My answer to that would be, if the show wasn't going to take the abuse of boys/men seriously, such themes shouldn't have been depicted at all. A series having juvenile and supernatural themes doesn't mean it's harmless, and the abuse of cis boys/men is so rarely handled well in film and television, as explored in Part 1 and Part 2 of Sexual Assault of Men Played for Laughs . Modern media needs to do better than dismissing or laughing at male trauma. Cis boys and men need to know that they're supported, and that their trauma matters. Young men take in messaging from media, just like young women, and the media needs to do better by them. Anyway, back to Theo... Theo excitedly seeking romantic advice from a friend. After coming out and triumphing over the people who abused/harassed him, Theo is afforded a romance that, while cheesy, is a breath of fresh air for those of us who never got to have such experiences in our youth. Theo's eventual boyfriend, Robin, is a humanoid Hobgoblin with supernatural abilities. He was initially tasked with sacrificing Theo to a Pagan God, but falls in love with him instead. Theo and Robin. Their scenes are a checklist of stereotypical teenage tropes, including cute dates and Theo choosing to lose his virginity with Robin. They're an adorable pair, as long as you're fond of cliché-heavy writing... but that caveat applies to the entire show. The massive age gap between them is never really dealt with. Robin refers to Theo as "the Putnam child," which I personally found incredibly creepy. Provided you're comfortable with the fact that trans maleness is treated completely differently to cis maleness, with cis guys typically not attaining justice after being abused (unlike Theo), Chilling Adventures of Sabrina is a relatively fun watch. Just don't expect too much. If there hadn't been a trans boy among the central characters, I wouldn't have continued watching it. The last season is particularly shit, and the final episodes ruined my favourite relationship in the show (a wonderful bisexual/lesbian pair). In terms of general warnings, prepare for the following: Gore, blood, and human dissections. Murder, including graphic deaths, the killing of an infant boy by his own mother, and the serial killing of multiple pre-pubescent children. Psychological horror. Torture of adults, teenagers, and children. Cannibalism, ranging from the cooking/consumption of humans to the eating of a newly-killed, fresh human body. Violence against people of colour, including a widely criticised lynching scene. Incestuous themes, specifically the planned marriage of a father and daughter, and the planned marriage of a brother and sister with the goal of producing incestuous heirs. Sexualisation of underage characters, including a fifteen year-old child (Sabrina at the start of the show). Multiple suicides. Underage drinking and drug use. A heterosexual relationship which closely resembles an abusive marriage. There are also Satanic themes, which doesn't bother me in the slightest, except for the fact that the show isn't at all sure how it's defining Satanism, Christianity, the occult, or Paganism... or, more crucially, good versus evil. From the perspective of an atheist, it's lazy writing. From the perspective of some worshippers, it's offensive . I can't personally speak to that but, if you are spiritual or religious, consider yourself warned. Entry last updated: 8 Feb 2026 Related Media Trans Male with Male Browse
- Gendernauts (1999) | Trans Documentary
Max Wolf Valerio, Texas Tomboy, and other trans people are interviewed about their gender identities, sexualities, and lives. Hida, an intersex person who was presumed female at birth, describes their non-binary experience and masculine experimentation. Gendernauts: A Journey Through Shifting Identities Documentary 1999 United States of America Max Wolf Valerio, Texas Tomboy, and other trans people are interviewed about their gender identities, sexualities, and lives. Hida, an intersex person who was presumed female at birth, describes their non-binary experience and masculine experimentation. Available Summary: An illuminating and compassionate look at the world of transgender identity, as seen through portraits of some of San Francisco’s leading gender mixers. Whether by birth or by choice, sometimes with the assistance of hormones or surgical prostheses, we meet those who blur the lines of male and female. - Vimeo . Jack's Summary: One thing that deeply disappointed me about this documentary was a discussion about Brandon Teena, wherein a gender-variant person claimed that they couldn't know how Brandon Teena identified, because he was dead and therefore couldn't be asked. This betrayed a willing ignorance of Brandon's identity, and a determination to ignore his own words. A film still from an art project about Brandon Teena. In The Brandon Teena Story (a deeply-distressing documentary released one year before Gendernauts ), several interviewees insisted that Brandon identified and lived as a man, and wished only to be known as a male. One of Brandon’s ex-girlfriends, when interviewed, said, “he just wanted everybody to know him as always having being a man”. Another of his ex-girlfriends described him rejecting the idea that his relationships were lesbian, stating instead that they were straight, because he was a man. Brandon, according to testimonies, would say that he had begun transition surgeries, to make people believe in the legitimacy of his male identity. Therefore, I was disappointed that a gender-variant person in Gendernauts made an art project speculating about Brandon’s gender, and treating Brandon as a fictional character. It felt cruel, and very similar to the way that cis people refused to take Brandon’s maleness at face value. The motive seemed to be to use Brandon, in death, as a platform to project the artist’s own non-binary experience, rather than respecting Brandon's binary maleness. That said, I do recognise the value in Gendernauts . I enjoyed its interviews with trans men, ally doctors, and non-binary people. Hida on their motorcycle. One interviewee, a female-presumed intersex person named Hida, describes a gender-ambiguous childhood, presenting "high-femme" during their younger years, discovering their intersex traits as an adult, and experimenting with masculinity. They describe learning how men walk, talk, and present, and discuss what it was like to pass as male so easily, especially in situations where they faced homophobia from strangers who assumed them to be a young gay man. Towards the end of their interview, they talk about how they are now trying to "inhabit the middle ground that I feel is me", explaining, "I think the middle ground is a place where people aren't sure what you are." I really enjoyed Hida's interview. One of the interviewees I was most impressed by was a woman named Chrystal Weston, who worked for the DA’s Office as an advocate for LGBT+ people. I really liked that her education about trans people included, in her words, transsexuals, transvestites, and both pre-op and post-op individuals. A very progressive understanding for the time, even if the language has changed nowadays. Les and Annie. Annie Sprinkle, a sex worker and activist, talks about her trans male lover Les Nichols, and pornographic footage is shown of the pair together, following Nichols’s phalloplasty operation. The footage is originally from the 1989 film Linda/Les & Annie—The First Female to Male Transsexual Love Story . The beginning of this segment is largely positive and affirming, and actually quite lovely, but then Sprinkle’s voiceover dreamily remarks about how trans men could “become a new political force of women taking over the world as men”. She also uses explicit language which could be incredibly dysphoria-inducing for many men, referring to all trans men as being men with cunts . Sprinkle then proceeds to describe how much “shock and outrage” came from the FTM transsexual community in response to her film. I think I may know where some of that negative response came from, her good intentions aside. This documentary definitely gave me mixed feelings. I didn’t like that a trans female interviewee compared all trans people to cyborgs, as part of the "genderfuckery" theme underlying the whole film. I found it dehumanising. That said, such themes are central to the film's advertising and branding, so viewers (myself included) are forewarned of those ideas, and I am aware that many trans viewers may find such comments affirming or compelling. Less excusable are comments made by one of the cis interviewees, who shamelessly misgenders a trans man because he has not had bottom surgery. Overall, while I think it's a worthwhile watch, I would say that this film is not really for binary trans men. The disrespect shown to Brandon Teena is enough to make that clear. Lastly, please know that this documentary includes the word "hermaphrodite", which is widely viewed as a stigmatising and misleading term which should not be used to describe intersex people, unless a person self-identifies as such.

It's really fascinating and gorgeous to listen to these men telling stories of how their relationship ended, both having conflicting memories of certain events, hugging each other tightly in response to a rekindled emotional connection. It's so humanising and real. Entry last updated: 8 Feb 2026 Related Media Trans Male with Male Browse
