[EmmaThorneVideos]

Thank you for watching! Let me know your favourite comment down below, and remember to tell Jasper he did a great job 🦆❤️

[jumpthegun]

My favorite thing about this video: Half of these people think you're a girl who looks like a boy, the other half think you're a boy who looks like a girl, and ALL of them think WE'RE the idiots who don't have gender properly figured out.

[Hachizukatenzo]

"Jesus is coming, everyone look busy" Was indeed good humor.

[lollorosso]

As a Biologist the “human DNA has got no ape cells”-one got me.

Also, the “lesbian Harry Potter” is quite hilarious. Worth printing on a t-shirt if not for JKR and a wizengamot of lawyers hunting you down afterwards.

[falsfire]

When people imply sexuality is a choice, I challenge them to "choose to be gay" for just 15 minutes. When they inevitably say they can't, I say 'presto'. One's sexuality is not a choice, whether you accept it or repress it is the only choice :)

Cheers Emma!

(and for the benefit of those who say, "older and wiser", I'm 45 lol)

"god left you to judge others' As a fellow atheist that cracked me up more than it probably should have. The thought a god left someone who doesn't believe in him to judge others is exactly the type of christian thinking I've come to expect.

[raechuuu]

Them: “you can’t change your gender just by dressing like a guy/girl”
Also them: “U have short hair. R U boy?!”

[kacomeau]

As someone who makes a LOT of typos... I absolutely love that you read ever single one completely as written.

[Ratciclefan]

*Transphobes:* "you always know when someone is trans"
*Also transphobes:* [Attacking cis women for even daring to have short hair]

[merxy]

As a queer woman myself, I too have sometimes gone down on women for 2 years straight and missed tons of news... I'm glad I'm not alone in this struggle, thanks for sharing Emma.

[shauno]

"Such a basic atheist channel"... As if Christians haven't been regurgitating the same debunked rhetoric forever.
This was a fun video. Thank you for curating a Greatest Hates Playlist so we don't need to wade through the comments ourselves.

[thlogician]

"If you are anything under the bi umbrella, remember: you are valid and I see you. Also, remember that we are visible this month... so don't commit any crimes"
You are so awesome Emma 😆

[pseudotasuki]

"Our DNA has no ape cells"

There's a great response to this sort of nonsensical statement: "Not only is that not right, it isn't even wrong."

[RealTanku]

As I told a friend once, "How I yearn for the days where sexual orientation has as much impact on a person as something like... hair color preference."

Imagine a world where a girl saying she's into girls would garner the same "huh, okay, cool for you" reaction as saying "oh, I'm more attracted to redheads than blondes". Wouldn't that be wonderful?

[cosgrovemanning]

I wanted to contribute some of my life experience. I am 47 years old, a combat veteran, a math teacher in a small American town, and an atheist. Screw the haters. You are bi and that seems to me to have nothing to do with religion. You give good skeptic content. You positively represent both science and feminism. Don’t feel put off by the freaks and detractors. Keep the videos going.

[GlenGarcia]

P.S.: I came out as bi in 2020, when I was 59. I've been this way, as well as presenting some symptoms of ASD, all of my life.

The majority of reaction that I've received, from my employer and coworkers, to immediate family members and longtime friends, has been a wonderful mix of "Happy Pride, so glad to see you having the courage to be yourself, " and "yes, I pretty much figured that out years ago, So glad you are able to be yourself and not be afraid anymore."

I've been extraordinarily blessed with a wonderful support network of friends, immediate family, coworkers, my employer (which has an open policy of strong support for its LGBT employees to be honest about their sexuality and gender without fear in the workplace), and many others, mostly old acquaintances, who pretty much figured out that I was "different" years ago and have no problem with it.

Surprisingly, one of my best friends who has remained a close and tolerant friend who expressed his congratulations at being honest with myself is a man who is a lifelong fundamentalist christian evangelist. He began his response by saying that Jesus, in the bible, didn't just break bread with observant devoutly religious people, but he went among, broke bread with, and told jokes with and gave comfort to "people who were, at that time in Judea, considered outcasts, and in marginalized communities, who were looked down upon and not acknowledged by almost everyone, and yet he recognized them, stayed in their houses, and refused to treat them as invisible."

In my life, I have found very few people who are declared christians, whatever their sectarian background, who have more eloquently expressed the compassion and humanity to be found in the teachings attributed to Jesus than this man has, nor had the fortitude and goodness in their innate conscience to put it into practice. This guy has never tried to proselytize me into joining his religion, or condemned me for being myself, and is, in fact, a fellow musician who I like to send rough drafts of my music when I'm working on a new piece, because he has great insights into what is working on a potential piece, and what might need to be dropped from an arrangement.

I can't believe, for all the trauma and misunderstanding I suffered as a child, and later as a teenager in high school, that I have been so lucky as to have the right people in the right place at the right time in my life to step out and find my freedom.

Wanted to share some good news with you from one wordy old hippie with long curly gray hair everywhere except on top, who is happy to be free to be himself, and in the middle of Texas, at that.

[GayGothPirate]

Jasper did a great job, I'm proud of him

Also, as a trans man with long hair who transphobes often get confused about I get your exasperation every time someone confuses you for a trans man because you have short hair

[chrissighful]

I love how some of these "slurs" are things I'd think would be real fun to be. Like being an actual witch doctor with actual witch doctor powers sounds amazing.
Really happy you let us laugh at these angry silly people together with you.

[rebeca]

As a 32 y/o woman who gets sideways glances when being carded for alcohol while my 33 y/o boyfriend does not get carded at all, I feel you.

[barbaral]

Love the " our DNA doesn't have any cells" comment
