Meet the Transgender Man Who Could Be a Men's Health Magazine Cover Model

A transgender man could end up a cover model for Men's Health after thousands of votes have poured in for the magazine's cover contest.

================

Sorry if this has already been posted about somewhere else.

I first came across Aydian's youtube videos when I was starting to come out to myself as transgender. He seems like a great guy who's trying to do a lot of good for the trans community. So I think it's really awesome that this is happening. Of course the article says that the votes only count for 10% of the final decision so who knows what will happen in the end, but it think it's great that he's so far ahead in the leaderboard.

I voted for him and shared with friends. Aydian is a decent dude, and it would be huge for the community if he were to win.

Buck Angel is also on their leaderboard, at #18.  Not too shabby, to have two trans guys in the top 20.

I hope he gets on the cover *only* because it would be a step in the right direction but meh, I think there are a lot of better looking guys than him.  Just my opinion.

You build on failure. You use it as a stepping stone. Close the door on the past. You don't try to forget the mistakes, but you don't dwell on it. You don't let it have any of your energy, or any of your time, or any of your space.

I literally just skimmed across him yesterday on youtube. I'd been watching Skylar Kergil's trans related videos. I subscribed and I'll definitely check him out later. I hope he wins.


Msg me if you want to Skype! I'm always down to talk, lend an ear or exchange resources.

^Skylar is awesome!  Also, check out upperCaseChase (aka, "Chasey Poo") on Youtube.  That guy is fantastic; his videos are my absolute favorites.

I really hope the dude wins, I mean he deserves to in every way for working so hard.
Guess we'll have to keep our fingers crossed, eh? 🙂

I am pretty sure he did win. I saw an article about a transman on a men's health magazine so I'm assuming it's the same guy
