Ryan, Los Angeles, CA “My first AOL Instant Messenger screen name was ‘littlemanskier’. (Basil and Ryan laugh) … I mean I was a 6 year old! I grew up in Long Island and as a #kid I had no confidence at all. When the teacher would call on me at school, I would just start crying. No confidence at all... I also had no teeth. I think it was third or fourth grade that I had lost both of my front teeth at the same time. I’m emotional, so I was just basically always awkward and crying. I was still very #artistic though. I knew from age six that I wanted to be an artist, but I didn't know like what type of artist to be. At that point I had just started playing #guitar and I was awful at it. But my #mom kept encouraging me. She’s why I got better. But it was hard growing up because I had no self-assurance. I ended up evolving later on by meeting older LGBT kids when I was in High School. Around that time, I started figuring my #gender out. Even though my #parents didn’t support my transition, they supported the fact that I existed. That’s an important thing to distinguish. I went to school and I had a sandwich every day. Even if it was super uncomfortable and my parents and I weren’t talking at all, and I felt invisible, I didn’t get kicked out. So many trans people have a much different story and harder path. I am lucky for that.” Transilient: “Your new song ‘Daughter’ is about your father. The song touches on the struggle you two had during your transition, have you healed from that?” [CONTINUED IN COMMENTS] Follow the link in our bio to watch @ryancassata’s video for “Daughter”, also available on iTunes, and #SupportTransArtists. #RyanCassata is #MoreThanTrans #WeAreTransilient #Musician #Artist #Son #Transgender #Transman #Family #Father #Daughter #FathersDay #ftm #ftmmagazine #singersongwriter #lgbt #lgbtq #pride #transisbeautiful #activist #transactivist #topsurgery #transandinked (at Saint Paul, Minnesota)

So nice to finally meet up with Ryan Cassata at his last concert on his tour before he heads back home! 😄💙🌱@ryancassata #ryancassata #tour #musician #ftm #trans #transgender #washington #seattle #ftmtraveler (at Seattle, Washington)

To celebrate Pride month I decided to post some pictures of myself (sorta). I'm ftm transgender. I've been living as a man for almost three years and I've been in testosterone for 1.5 years. My top surgery is at the end of August and I'm so excited. I look up to Chase Ross, Ryan Cassata and Ty Turner for inspiration.

Ryan thank you for not taking, but instead #givingback to organizations and communities that need it most. And, as a secondary thought ... their smiles say it all ... Happy Coming Out Day!

At 15 I went on international TV and came out to the world. Coming out and living my life authentically as Ryan has given me so much joy in my life. I am so grateful for everything I’ve accomplished, all the people I have met, and the strong queer family I have. 🌈🌈🌈 I am choosing to give back funds this year for national coming out day because our community is in need. 40% of homeless youth are LGBTQ. 20 Black Trans Women have been killed this year. LGBTQ youth are being bullied! We can all do our part to help those in need! 🌈 I just got off a national tour that was sponsored by @tomboyx and have donated proceeds to 3 different orgs for National Coming Out Day. If you feel inspired you should donate as well! 🌈 @genderbands - a community center I got to visit in Utah that is doing amazing work for the trans community, providing support groups, events, as well as funding needed trans surgeries! 🌈 @itgetsbetter - an .org that provides resources to those in need. I left a note to put it towards black trans women. (We passed out cards for this project throughout the tour) 🌈 @trevorproject - a suicide hotline for lgbtq youth that I have also gotten to visit and believe in a lot. 🌈 📸: @karencordellartistry from a recent shoot with @tomboyx of @_cocoamelia @ms.briqhouse and @ryancassata // I chose to share this photo because it shows the joy that I have in my life because I get to live my life authentically. I am so grateful to be out! It’s a privilege to be out and feel mostly safe. Wether you’re out or not this NCOD, I love you and support you and you’re part of the fam! 🌈 (at Boston, Massachusetts) https://www.instagram.com/p/B3fmhPAgGGS/?igshid=qi2rd77xno12
