Transcript

There remains a lingering stigma surrounding AGP specifically, but there’s a complexity to the breadth of proclivities, fixations and traits compelling certain behaviors and beliefs around sexuality and gender identity. And like discussed in The Many Roots and Presentations of Gender Dysphoria in Males, what might have otherwise remained latent in some males, has perhaps only been amplified by today’s internet-driven world. 

This is a special free release of one of our bonus episodes for premium subscribers! We hope you enjoy our conversation considering what it’s like for parents who are fearful, feeling isolated from their son’s experience gender dysphoria, and feeling trapped by the sensitive nature of the topic, specifically where AGP traits are involved. The discussion highlights the emotional challenges and societal stigmas faced by families navigating this sensitive topic.


As Sasha mentioned in the discussion, be sure to check out Ray Alex Williams, a detransitioner who discusses autogynephilia and shares his experiences through insightful videos offering valuable context for understanding experiences related to gender dysphoria and autogynephilia.
