Tarik Tesfu studied journalism and communication sciences, as well as gender studies, in Vienna. He ended his studies »independently (without a degree)« and he's been »hopping around the web as a gender-messiah« since 2015. On his YouTube channel Tariks Genderkrise, he posts weekly videos »with a clear message: Genderlove!« In his humorous, ironic clips, he appears on camera at various sites around Cologne and comments on current topics such as homosexual marriage (»Yes we can«), racist literature and the BILD newspaper's sexism.
