Machine translation, like DeepL or Google Translate, is a useful starting point for translations, but translators must revise errors as necessary and confirm that the translation is accurate, rather than simply copy-pasting machine-translated text into the English Wikipedia.
Consider adding a topic to this template: there are already 5,024 articles in the main category, and specifying|topic= will aid in categorization.
Do not translate text that appears unreliable or low-quality. If possible, verify the text with references provided in the foreign-language article.
You must provide copyright attribution in the edit summary accompanying your translation by providing an interlanguage link to the source of your translation.

Growing up, Kergil presented himself as a tomboy, and associated with a butch lesbian group in high school, cutting his hair and wearing baggy clothes, and playing in a punk rock band. At age 15, Kergil met a trans woman, which led Kergil to realize he was a trans man. Over the next several years, Kergil met with a gender therapist and started going by a gender-neutral name. He later came out to his parents as trans, and began taking testosterone in early 2009, his senior year of high school, in order to attend Skidmore College presenting as a man.[1]
In 2015, he featured on the first episode of PBS's First Person series, an LGBTQ-themed web series,[3][4] as well as in a Transgender Today editorial from The New York Times.[5] He was awarded the "Youth Innovator Award" by the Trevor Project in 2014.[6][7]
His music style has been described by Billboard as "a folk sound that sends a statement".[8] As of 2024[update], he has over 109,000 YouTube subscribers and over 12 million views.[9]
