I'm Madison. And people judge our relationship because I'm a trans woman
0:04
And I moved to Rhin after the first date. We've definitely had to learn a lot of our personality quirks
0:12
We have a 17-year age difference. We did definitely jump in this relationship very quickly
0:18
So Kmart is my best friend. The pace at which they're moving, it's giving red flag, you know, love balmy
0:27
What did you think when I told you I was moving in with him
0:33
I'm 41 years old. I am 24 years old. Justin, I met at an after party
0:42
So romantic. She was wearing a black dress. She had her hair down and she looked really stunning
0:49
My first impression was that he has a nice beard. She was really sweet and kind
0:56
and the part about her being a trans woman didn't bother me at all
1:00
His and I first date, we went out to eat and it was a really good night
1:06
We ended up drinking a little bit. I moved in right after the first date
1:10
which was a big concern for a lot of people that we know. We've definitely had to learn a lot of our personality quirks
1:20
We did definitely jump in this relationship very quickly, so my friends were very skeptical
1:27
We have a 17-year age difference. But to me, I feel like age is just a number
1:33
I just enjoy the friendship aspect. You know, I think that's something that I lacked
1:39
in my previous relationship is, like, the friend part about it. I think you're fun, you're uplifting
1:46
You're a vibe. Ah, thank you. You're a vibe, too. How would you describe my look, babe
1:53
Sexy elegant and I think fun I like to see her transform from a casual laid back look into a glamorous look What time is K meeting us again So K is my best friend She a local artist here I known her since middle school
2:12
so we go way back. When I introduced her to Joseph, she was very skeptical and very protective
2:19
She probably won't hold back. Oh, she will not hold back. My name is K-Mar Woods
2:26
Maddie, she just got out of a pretty toxic relationship. I'm really just concerned for the safety and like the longevity of the relationship with how quickly things are moving
2:37
Hey, well, I'm ready. Are you? It's giving red flag, you know, love bombing
2:43
I'd like to ask him what his intentions are with my daughter. Hey
2:50
Hey. How are you? Good. So good to see you. Hello, Joseph
2:58
Nice to see you. Good to see you again. I just wanted to kind of hang out and have like a conversation that I've been wanting to have with you
3:08
You know, about me and Joseph. So I just want to know what did you think when I told you I was moving in with him
3:17
Um. Oh my gosh. There are so many challenges when dating as a trans woman
3:22
I've been through so many bad guys, through so many bad situations with men
3:32
So yeah, it's been a challenge for me. And honestly, I thought I was never going to find love at this point
3:39
When I met Joseph and I saw that he was a good guy and that he was willing to be in public with me without any hesitation, that was really eye-opening to me
3:49
I thought it was like a little, very soon, you know? It was very quick
3:57
So like how the dynamic going Are you guys getting along We been doing good We haven been having that It been really good We been trying new things trying like hikes and going outdoors and trying new restaurants and foods
4:12
It's been actually pretty fun. That's fun. Yeah. It's like the dating process, but you guys are already moved in together
4:19
Yeah, like fast forward. Although moving in together, I'd say would be a red flag behavior
4:28
and meet her for my intuition and who you are as like an individual I say I really vibe with as
4:35
well. At the end of the day I just want you to be happy and I know you've been through so much
4:41
with previous connections and I want you to take good care of her and you know just make sure she's
4:47
safe. Unfortunately the horrible thing about being trans is like you just never know who's looking
4:55
at you and who knows you know you kind of just have to put on your you know your big girl shoes
5:01
and keep walking i mean we don't really get that much hate in person it's more online when i
5:09
mention that i'm trans through a video then it's like hundreds of hate comments commenting with no
5:15
profile picture i've been a content creator since i was 13 years old when i was younger it was
5:22
It's definitely a way of escaping my reality, but now it's become very important to me
5:31
As a trans woman, I do have a lot of people who look up to me
5:36
Kiss the air. Okay. Like right there. Okay Cruella, let's go. What
5:43
Ever since I introduced Joseph to my platform, he has also been receiving that level of pain
5:50
That was cute, I guess. I mean, I've had death threats. So yeah, I've had death threats sent to me
5:58
I get comments like, so you both are gay, nobody cares. He gay People calling me queer Yeah the comments are not very nice but there a lot of comments just saying that my boyfriend gay for dating me To me I am who I am and I don have to
6:15
explain that to anybody else. What matters the most is that I love this person next to me
6:19
and that we are in a positive and healthy relationship. It makes me feel a little sad
6:24
that people are so judgmental, but at the end of the day, I feel like my voice is being heard
6:31
because of my platform and it makes me feel on the other side really grateful
6:35
and privileged that I'm able to be such a light in others' lives
6:41
The fact that you live in your authenticity and are who you are
6:45
I think it draws love to you more. And I think it's a really good example, well, a good example to the trans community
6:52
to give people hope that there is love out there. I love that you say that because that's my goal
6:59
is to just, you know, because at one point at a time
7:03
like, I was just a little trans girl who didn't think that I would find my partner
7:07
And I just want to show these girls what's up and show them that they can and that they will
7:13
Cheers to love and abundance. Cheers, baby. Joseph has definitely changed my life for the better
7:21
I feel like before him, I felt like a sense of just loneliness
7:25
and feeling like I'm lost. Joseph gave me that sense of security and fulfillment
7:32
You and I, we work because we are unique and we are empathetic for not only ourselves and our relationships, but for everyone around us
7:45
People that judge mine and Joseph's relationship, find a new hobby. Because we're not going anywhere, honey
