More quotes by 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
The Internet is accelerating the speed of acceptance and social justice.
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'll be a YouTuber for as long as I love it.
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
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.
Tyler Oakley
I keep a lot to myself, and I cherish the things that are for me and the people closest to me.
Tyler Oakley
Best thing about doing Youtube as a job - the Youtube friends that I've met all around the world, that I never would have got the chance to meet without Youtube.
Tyler Oakley
One thing I've learned best from my mom is to be yourself and not everyone will get you and that's okay. I try to bring that into everything that I do and just understand that I will not be everyone's cup of tea and that's fine.

Julie Chen. She's my ultimate celebrity idol. I think she's one of the most amazing interviewers and hosts ever - and would kill to pick her brain. 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
The only constant you have from Point A, your birth to Point B, your death is you. There is no point in changing who you are to appease others when they're gonna leave your life. LOVE YOURSELF because you're the only one who's stuck with yourself. Fall in love with who you are and if anybody wants to join in on that. More Power to them.
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
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
The movie was always something that was always kind of like a dream. From the start of making my YouTube videos, I've always been sharing my thoughts or opinions or just updating people on my life, but the movie is more of a behind-the-scenes look at what actually goes into my life.
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'm a human just like any of the people that you adore, whether they're in TV shows or movies or they're writers or YouTubers. Their lives are not perfect.
Tyler Oakley
I try to surround myself with a good support system. Whether that's other creators or my family or my friends, or even my viewers, who encourage me just as much as I might encourage them and they're just as much a part of my life as they let me be a part of theirs.
Tyler Oakley
I literally believe I'm going to do everything I set out to do, which is a pretty amazing feeling.
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
My life and happiness speaks for itself.
