Trisha Paytas is a widely popular presence in the social media sphere. Best known for their iconic videos crying on their kitchen floor and, more recently, as a co-host on Ethan Klein\u2019s \u201cFrenemies\u201d podcast, Paytas has witnessed quite the transformation throughout their career as a YouTuber. However, Paytas has most recently made headlines for a video uploaded on April 9, where they revealed that they\u2019re nonbinary and genderfluid. In the video, Paytas reflects on friend and fellow influencer Gigi Gorgeous\u2019 own \u201ccoming out\u201d journey, which \u2014 alongside Generation Z and TikTok \u2014 helped them to better understand their own gender and gain the courage to come out. View this post on Instagram \u201cWith \u2018nonbinary\u2019 \u2014 and I have to give credit to TikTok and Gen Zers \u2014 I finally\u2026 that feels like the perfect label for me, right?\u201d they said. Paytas also expressed immense gratitude and admiration for their fianc\u00e9e, Moses Hacmon, for accepting their gender and referring to them as their preferred pronouns \u201cbased on what I was feeling that day, that week, that hour.\u201d \u201cThis is what I\u2019ve been struggling with for so long, is for people to just accept that I\u2019m all genders and no genders at once. The more I was researching nonbinary, I was like, \u2018This is the label. This is who I am.’\u201d Thus far, Paytas has been met with an overwhelming amount of support from their fans \u2014 but their current spat with fellow influencer Nikita Dragun has brought up accusations of transphobia against them, due to a previous video they uploaded in 2019 where they came out as a trans man. \u201cThat video was never meant to be offensive or a troll,\u201d Paytas said of the video. \u201cIt came across as bad and wrong, and I didn\u2019t know \u2018non-binary\u2019 back then. I really just thought, \u2018I\u2019m really a male.’\u201d \ud83e\udd7a\ud83e\udd7a this is so sweet. They\/ them is my preferred at the moment. I really adore u. Thank u for this \u2014 Trisha Paytas (@trishapaytas) April 10, 2021 As for what pronouns Paytas prefers, they revealed that for now, they prefer to go by \u201cthey\/them.\u201d \u201cA lot of the time, I\u2019m a \u2018they,\u2019 in the sense that I don\u2019t know\u2026 but I am a person, and it\u2019s okay if I\u2019m just a person.
