More quotes by Tyler Oakley
My ideal guy is my future husband. Not sure who he is yet, but he's out there. What impresses me in a gay guy? A warm smile, stubble, easy to talk to, thoughtful tattoos, kind eyes, wit, positivity, wanderlust, ambition, and a cute ass.
Tyler Oakley
I come up with new ambitions all the time - and the coolest thing is, I think of something I want to do, and I don't really imagine it as Oh, I've never done that. I think of it as, Oh, I haven't done that yet. I literally believe I'm going to do everything I set out to do, which is a pretty amazing feeling.
Tyler Oakley
I'm one of those YouTubers who doesn't daily-vlog, so my life may seem very open, but my audience only really sees probably 50%. I keep a lot to myself, and I cherish the things that are for me and the people closest to me.
Tyler Oakley
I literally cannot even. I can't even. I am unable to even. I have lost my ability to even. I am so unable to even.
Tyler Oakley
It feels like an amazing opportunity to positively impact the world. That's what I hope to do.
Tyler Oakley
I am a fangirl of talent, so to see someone slaying the competition doing what I'd love to do, that's inspiring to me.
Tyler Oakley
I first discovered YouTube while browsing the web, and then I found people just talking into their cameras. I never even knew it was a thing you could do.
Tyler Oakley
My life and happiness speaks for itself.
Tyler Oakley
I'm a firm believer in making it happen - no matter what 'it' is.
Tyler Oakley
I came from a pretty accepting community, and my school had a lot of openly gay and LGBT-plus people. When I joined YouTube, I saw a lot more hostility than I saw in my everyday life.
Tyler Oakley
Over the last eight years of being on YouTube, I've seen so much progress. I think the reason for that is that a lot of young people are having open dialogue and honest conversations about social justice and human rights.
Tyler Oakley
I try my hardest to not let hate mail influence me - because anybody can put out hate, it takes a much stronger person to put out themselves.
Tyler Oakley
I literally believe I'm going to do everything I set out to do, which is a pretty amazing feeling.
Tyler Oakley
Three things that always bring a smile to my face: making guacamole for my friends, getting pedicures with my mom, exploring an airport I've never been in.
Tyler Oakley
How many likes you get on a selfie will not be what you remember 10 years down the line. The relationships that you form and the memories that you make and the connections that you make with people day to day are the things you remember.
Tyler Oakley
The type of person that might thrive on Vine in a six-second clip might not be the same kind of entertainer who would shine on a 10-minute vlog on YouTube. If anything, having these different platforms gives more people a chance to creatively express themselves.
Tyler Oakley
I remember having 100 views on a video and being like, I don't have a hundred friends. So that was a moment.
Tyler Oakley
Everybody on YouTube starts with zero subscribers. You think of everyone you look up to or have watched for years or whatever, they may seem like this is their life now, but it wasn't always that.
Tyler Oakley
Check thyself before thy wreck thyself.
Tyler Oakley
There will always be people that will have assumptions about you, about my character, my personality, or that I might put on a show of being gay or something, or that I play up stereotypes or anything like that. It's always funny to me that those people are typically the people that know me the least.
