If you’re even remotely familiar with YouTube and streaming, MrBeast needs no introduction. He is, after all, the biggest individual YouTuber. And his journey and the work he does is nothing short of inspiring. But it doesn’t stop with him. Even his teammates have stories that inspire the world in so many ways. Among all these stories lies the journey of Kris Tyson, the story of acceptance and finding the ‘real you.’ 

The YouTube King MrBeast’s long-time friend, Kris Tyson, took the internet by storm when she openly came out as a transgender back in July this year. The courageous public confession didn’t just inspire a lot of other individuals struggling with their identities, it also ignited very important discussions about the sensitive nature of the matter. Over her HRT period, Tyson has kept documenting her progress, inviting a lot of wholesome love from the community. Meanwhile, through her latest update, Kris Tyson revealed the hardships of going through the ‘transition’. 

MrBeast’s best friend has a message for all the people who are “trying to get it right” 

As a medical process, HRT is itself challenging on so many levels, but with social elements and with social strings attached, there’s a lot an individual has to tackle. For instance, a lot of individuals going through HRT feel physical insecurities, lack of confidence, and self-doubt. And most importantly, the therapy tests your patience. A social media user described the same through a beautiful post on X (formerly Twitter). She wrote, “I feel like we need to start sharing early transition selfies too as a way to encourage baby trans girls who feel they aren’t seeing changes.” 

The user’s post garnered a lot of attention and it was intriguing enough to invite the reaction of Kris Tyson. She wrote, “Every person transitioning goes through babytrans. It’s different for everyone, but you are finding yourself and allowing yourself for the first time the space to be your authentic self. Don’t feel bad for trying and not getting it right at first. You will find yourself.”

When she began expressing herself as a lady is uncertain. However, certain changes—like longer hair—had already become noticeable by the end of 2022. videos such as her longer hair, lack of facial hair, and fashion sense have all been more noticeable in the last several months, as shown in the MrBeast YouTube videos. In July of this year, the public announcement was made later.

For a lot of people, the discussion around all the social and psychological challenges that are faced by individuals seeking gender identity might come across as newfangled. However, when looking through the lens of the people going through the transition, one can understand the problems. 

The everyday challenges of people seeking their real self 

Of course, the public confession of Kris Tyson received wide applause from the community all around, but it also invited strong heat from one section of the community. An infamous social media influencer in association with the brand of MrBeast being thrashed over the web makes you wonder what a regular individual going through a similar phase might be subjected to. 

There’s no denying the fact that society’s hatred is a major contributor to individuals not being able to express themselves as who they really are. “It’s so funny to me for people to say the things they say to try and get me to ‘go back’? Like you think the race is still going? When I transitioned I finally won in my life. I’m just doing a victory lap now,” Kris had written a note addressing the hatred she had been receiving earlier. 

So, the most basic ask from anyone is to be kind. ‘Acceptance and empathy’ is the way to move forward. Certainly, not much to ask!
