More quotes by 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.

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
I hope you learn to love yourself for who you are and what you look like, and how you were born to be, because you are perfect in your own way.
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
It feels like an amazing opportunity to positively impact the world. That's what I hope to do.

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'll be a YouTuber for as long as I love it.

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.

You have to fall in love with yourself first, and if someone wants to join you, more power to them!
Tyler Oakley
The Internet is accelerating the speed of acceptance and social justice.
Tyler Oakley
I think everyone just goes to London and says like, oh I went international!
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.

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
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
I literally believe I'm going to do everything I set out to do, which is a pretty amazing feeling.
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
My life and happiness speaks for itself.
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 just try to surround myself with good, positive supportive people who are trying to make the world better.
