How beautiful, I was incredibly moved! I came out as a lesbian in 2015 and I have been fighting this part of myself since then, coming in and out of the closet so I know how scary it is and how confusing it is this whole journey. We love seeing people support our community and I'm glad Will is such a good friend geninuely, and of course that Harper is finally happy with herself.

Delusional and demented. Try not to splash this brain disease onto the normal people.

I hope just about everyone watches this movie. It is so human, moving, funny, and real. Sometimes the only thing we need to do to understand those you don’t get, is just to get to know them a little. Harper and Will does just that.

Harper is such a beautiful soul. We should all be blessed with such an incredible friendship. This film brought me to tears because no one should feel alone or judged . I am just respectful and honored to have learned more about Miss Harper Steal and Mr. Will Ferrell friendship. I love you both. Harper, be happy and find awesome joy.

Whatever you do…..don't read the comments sorted by Newest First.
I mean….do if you want of course. In fact, if you're feeling too hopeful about humanity and would prefer to have your faith in humanity crushed a bit, go ahead and do it. If you'd like a succinct reminder that the intelligence and ethical capacity of a good chunk of humanity is astonishingly small, then by all means….sort the comments by Newest First and read on….

I have a feeling feeling this may win the OSCAR. So much heart this doc has. Maybe the one time Will Ferrell wins an Oscar. And I have a feeling Kristen Wiig may get nominated as well. Her song is perfection for this film. Sadly, she may not win as she's going up against Wicked. Hope she wins though! For sure they'll get nominated though, they're all beloved in the industry.

We pretend that people can change sex, by calling it gender.
We all know that they really can’t.
Harper will never go though menopause.
If Harper’s body is ever found, he will be identified as a man.
The pretence is very unhelpful for people who are unsure about their sexuality.
Instead of coming out as gay, they can now just change their pronouns, and be straight.
It’s called transing away the gay.
Men of Harper’s age, when their daughters become teenagers (around the age of his daughter), start to fetishise themselves as women.
Harper said he looks gorgeous in a photo.
This is called autogynephilia.
They don’t really think they have become a woman. They get turned on by thinking about themselves as women.

Men need to stop pretending to be women, and vice versa. Just gross

Thankfully she took the hair style note since Harper’s hair finally looks better than in the film. 😁

You know what, it doesn't matter how much you tell us Will. He is not a woman. I know in your mind everything is a joke, but womanhood is not.

Seth, I love you. I've been a fan for years, not only of you but of SNL, Will, and all the alumni. But, I would hope you might reconsider your comment on "ignorant people talking about regret." I am a detransitioner, and a vocal advocate for supporting survivors of the gender cult that young people fall into. Trans regret is not a myth, there is a cultural crisis occurring with young girls and women having identity issues being neglectfully affirmed by therapists and big pharma. This has become a mental health and medical scandal with girls like myself having their breasts cut off, sterilized, brain and bodily growth stunted, and even genital mutilation. The predatory gender medicine industry is a bipartisan concern, and much different than your friend Harper's decision to be gender non-conforming later in life after growing up healthy and fathering children.
Your show has helped me through dark, suicidal times before, during, and after both transition and detransition, but it is incorrect to discuss regret as a myth when countries like the UK and Netherlands have done systematic reviews of evidence for transition outcomes and found the data does not support it. This is a medical ethics issue, not about phobia.
