I think we've talked about AGP quite enough already. It has already been debunked and disproven to the ground multiple times already. It really doesn’t need to be resuscitated again. Just let it rest

You do so much damage to your credibility when you refer to women as “he” and men as “she.” Not to mention that your willingness to confuse people who are new to this topic with doublespeak is extremely concerning & problematic. It’s crazy that you want families to put their trust in you & rely on your honesty when you’re so willing to throw truth out the window in support of some crazy agenda you seem to be pursuing rather than just being clear & honest. IDK how anyone trusts their children to you after watching this. I find all this deceptive language and blythely confusing back-and-forth obfuscation of who is female and who is male completely appalling. And the question is ultimately, who does it serve? Not families.

Great video. You are spot on.

Ask yourself what feelings are socially acceptable for a man to express. Neutral and anger. Its an incomplete human experience. The sex gratification is part of it no doubt but its alot more than that, its the seeking of a full emotional range and feminine socialization and not being stigmatized for it Thats why it all endures after hormones when sex drive has been reduced. The weight of be a man, is lifted.

Thank you for talking about a topic which so many try so hard to deny is a thing.

thanks awfully from Goldap for keeping bursting my bubble

I started eating a carnivore diet in January this year and, wow, it's changed so much about how I view all these addictions we have. I now easily limit my screen time and I'm able to focus again. For years I couldn't even read a book because I couldn't focus long enough to absorb so much as a few sentences. Now I've taken up new hobbies, I spend way more time outdoors and being active at things I neglected for years and I feel really really good. I can't say it will do this for everyone but it's made a huge difference for me.

The power went off here a while back. It was only off for a few hours but of course I didn't know that was to be the case. Instead the length of time it would be off was unknown. So I was forced to spend time without my computer being on. It surprised me to find I felt happy to be free of it! Thank you for not loading up your video with whatever the video equivalent is of clip art.

why is the modern culture so insistent in its need for attention? i'm old now; never made money, never fit in. i don't think i ever grew up. still, every aspect of technology seems desperate for my attention. i've got this laptop, no phone at all. had to let go of my facebook account because i can't do 'double authentication' without the phone. i put a few apple trees in the place i stay. blueberries are a bit more productive. grapes coming in. no more sailboat. no more motorcycle. it's okay. it's not just you letting go. it's letting go of you, too. enjoy that sun, those walks, the rain. the ridiculous tech shit. nothing wrong with you.

I'm a HSTS and AGPs is 100% a thing. ❤❤❤❤ Calling agp an orientation is offensive. The orientation is straight. Everything around it is just a fetish

You lost me at calling Lawrence a "she" 🤦🏻‍♀️. Typical transmaid

So... I have a simple question that isn't addressed in this video... Why does this only apply to Male to Female trans people? Is there any comparable diagnosis for the Female to Male group, and if not, why?

I think Jenner falls into this category.

Where can I read any research on hsts internalized homophobia? That makes a lot of sense to me because I grew up very religious but never made that connection till you said that! Love your channel!

Is an AGP that has fought this shiz since a child and dont watch porn or fantasise about it, it still gets to me mentally and i do hate being a man. I have alot of emotional distress daily and struggle with my mood, and dont like socialising with men, im soft natured and would love to socialise with women more, and for the record im not attracted to either sex, dont get aroused at all. Kinda lonely existence. Ive tried intimacy with both men and women and just dont get sex. I just want a bit of love and compassion. A hug will do. Btw im on the autism spectrum which probably explains alot.

I am wondering how this works with kids with BPD. All I hear are demands for apologies "for what you did" and affirmation. Anything that doesn't unequivocally state complete responsibility for wrongs is deemed gaslighting.

Thank you for doing this conversation. It is so needed for us parents of older kids.

I have watched many of your videos, and I remain on the fence as to whether you are attempting to support transgender folk or kick them to the curb. I honestly believe you think you are helping, but you need to review the way you approach topics.

I want to watch the full video. Which Tier do I need to subscribe to in order to access it, Tier 1 or Tier 2? Thank you.

This was so timely I can’t believe it . Today is 4 months that our adult son came out to us . He is likely given all signs , going to cut us off. We do not affirm his decision or use his name and pronoun. Estrangement is a real problem in this community and is encouraged ! Thank you for discussing this painful issue.

I have self identified as having AGP. I am respectful of women’s spaces. I have never been turned on by porn. The rest of the description is pretty accurate in my case.

Secondary sex characteristics do not match primary

Did you say “kind of Aspie”? I hope you didn’t. 1. Asperger’s is no longer a term. Those people are now seen as being on the autism spectrum. 2. You can’t be kind of autistic. You either are autistic, or your aren’t.

Phil illy has written a new book on AGP and AAP called "AutoHeteroSexual". --- www.youtube.com/@phililly He has done many interviews about this subject on CZcams in the past year (2023-2024) Might be good to bring him on your channel for an interview.

I see a lot of transgender, transexual and cross dressers who look like a stone cold 'fox.' ... there are some 'tens' out there with XY chromosomes.

Thank you, this is a much-needed content. As someone struggling with AGP, I would like to leave a comment. Why do AGPs transition in middle age? It is simply because if AGP is not tamed, properly managed and kept in check, it can spiral out of control. Add to that midlife crisis and years of cross-dressing or fantasising, which fueled your addiction and hijacked your dopamine system leading often to some delusions. If you treat this condition as a paraphilia or very bizarre sexuality and manage it, it won't hijack you. It takes a lot of work, if you don't indulge, you will weaken those neuropathways. The worst thing a man can do is to transition. It will ruin your life. Most AGPs know that they are not a woman, especially when post-nut clarity kicks in. AGPs are straight and most of them have normal heterosexual desires directed outwards. If we focus on that and cut the addiction, we will heal. AGP tendencies will probably stay lifelong, but you can manage it.

So much is spent on agp and hsts clusters that it forgets about us trassexuals who actually have a brain developement anomaly. My transition to live as a woman is not based on sex or sexuality. When a hormone does not coordinate correctly in your brain medical intervention is needed. One has to be aware of their own sex/gender before transitioning. Women are Women. Transsexual women are transsexual women. This whole agp situation is very creepy. Women are sex objects for male fantasies again. A Woman (l refuse to use cis) is between her ears, not her legs. LGBT is so rediculous. LGB is credible. Give the T back to us real T's. No, l am not attracted to men. This is a hard road to take in a world full of Women. As with most things in this world, momentum increases with the use of technology. Puberty for me was going to doctor to find the reason for growing breasts at 14 while the boys were talking about sexuality. It was a different puberty for me.🦄

Transgender should be homosexual, so jealous 😢

As a 30 year old AGP who decided not to transition, I can say you are right on track. Its a torturous existence always second guessing yourself. A very lonely path and always feeling like you are wearing a mask but dont know what is the mask and what isnt. Those who transition are cosplaying as women and some are dangerous with erotic fantasy intention... yes they quite literally get off to the idea of being in womens spaces. It feels like something overtakes you and the more you compromise and allow it to, the more fantasies it wants to act out. The best comparison I can give is a straight heterosexual man driven by lust and saying that its only fair they are allowed to exercise their sexual fantasies in public at all times and society has to accept it. I do not think we are born with it but something in early childhood imprinted itself into our mind and we've never been the same since. Imagine seeing yourself as a man in every way, but then something (sexually driven) telling you that you are a women and wanting to see it manifest into reality. I apologize to any woman that this may seem to objectify, its quite literally out of my control. There seems to be no real cure and it is never not on my mind. I feel for the teenagers that this is affecting now, it can be a dark reality. :(

I am Andrew, 24 years old guy from Greece🇬🇷. The last few years i dont know why but i have started these feelings of want to dress like woman. I have somehow sweet facial characteristics and i can for sure become travesti. But i love to be boy just many times in sex with my gf i have the sexual desire to become and dress like woman in sex. I dont like men at all. I like only women and transwomen. But i am into monogamy and i love my gf. So when i told her about me she got little shocked in start but now we are fine. In society and my outdoor life with my familliar people i have my natural male appearence ( i like it i am not forced in that) and in sex many times my gf she dresses me like woman with her clothes and wig and she does me make up too. I dont like to become woman permanent but many times during sex only. We are both very happy cause nowdays we bought a strapon and she pegs me too 😁i love it cause is a way of expression of me to feel like woman amd express my feminine energy and being submissive to my love while she is dom and tops me.

As much as medical gatekeeping has primarily been motivated by hatred and disgust, I have some degree of sympathy for doctors who'd base whether or not they'd provide treatment based on a patient's ability to pass effectively. The sad fact is that for a lot of trans people the process of transitioning will only worsen their quality of life because not only will they never be able to look enough like the gender they want to alleviate their own dysphoria, they'll be seen as uncanny mockeries by everyone around them.

Genuine question: why are you referring to AGP as a sexual orientation and not a fetish? To me it seems like a sexual orientation is innate while a fetish is learned, and I find it extremely hard to believe that AGP is innate

Few actually indiscriminately pursue random stimulation, because real randomness is not interesting. Of course there are limitations to our mental capacity, but the key to information processing is organization and quality, not unqualified limitations on quantity. Our ability to limit our intake to those sorts of information sources which are actually useful to us is being dramatically enhanced. It is for us as individuals to wisely manage those sources, as it is with all resources at our disposal. Low quality information is not forced on us by technology, it is our task to manage technology in our lives responsibly. When we drive our car into a tree, it is not the fault of the car.

We go to church every week. For the hour and a half, I focus on that. Then we have lunch together. We then sing in the choir for the next hour. We don't have cellphone attachment issues because of that. Which enabled me to perform on full cylinders at work... 🎉

Ah, you nailed it beautifully. I too have been aware of mood changes in myself, because of too much coming at me, trying to take it in. Enough. I have chosen to spend much of that time in my veggie garden (on a the steep slope of a learning curve). I also am blessed to have a spot where I love to beachcomb and watch the variety of sea birds. Before all this, starting my day in The Word and prayer sets the tone of my day. I am intentional about what I read and listen to and am now sensitive to when it's getting to be too much. There are so many issues one can be concerned about. Having lost my job as a guidance counsellor for expressing concerns about teaching gender theory to elementary kids and refusing to do so, this is my main concern I focus on. Your podcasts with Stella are my go to as I trust your good sense, experience, and wisdom. Thank you so much for this Sasha! 😊💕

Once again, I went to bed last night, promising myself that I would NOT look at the internet when I got up, but here I am.. I have a life-long history of distracting behaviour, but it used to be books, magazines, newspapers, television.. At one point, I used to institute what I called a periodic "word fast" - where I stopped reading, except for work. Stopped watching tv. And only listened to instrumental music. For a week or two. The internet has me in its grasp to such a degree that I can't imagine doing that now.. But I think I'd better figure out a way to do it somehow. Sometimes, substitution works. So - I may start by substituting reading (instead of listening) to a book, instead of going online. And classic rock radio might just be better than podcasts, etc.. - And then, instrumental music... etc... Anyhow, thank you for bringing this up at a time when I really need to tackle this problem!

Agreeing with you as I'm watching you on CZcams is creating cognitive dissonance.

With knowledge and understanding of Wilhelm Reichs work, this transgender issue could be more clearly understood. Perhaps that is why the communists orchestrated the campaign against him that got him locked up jail, where he died, and had his books banned and burned in the USA in th 1950s. They already had the madness planned? In any case, from a Reichian viewpoint auto gyno philia can be understood as a "secundary perverse drive" arising when the "primordial love impulse" is denied its natural outlet, and neurosis forms. The most vicious aspects of this Reich called "the emotional plague of mankind", sexual neurosis in its most malignant form, ultimately as the hatred of life and everything natural, by those denied normal outlet of their sexuality. To understand what is going on I think one must have an idea of what I call "the original situation". What humanity was like before "the fall". Luckily there are a few examples of societies that seemed to have retained a lot of the qualities of this original situation surviving in isolated pockets almost up to our time, such as the Trobriand people. There, the children were breastfed for three years by the mother, they got to play freely all the natural exploratory games of children without the intervention of adult perverts sexualising the innocent games of children either by shaming and punishing them and threathening them with hell, or by perversly joining them and abusing them in that manner. They could do this freely and safely since there were no adult perverts, since all the adults had had the same natural childhood and hence become sane adults. When the Trobriand reached adolescence they moved to seperate huts and enjoyed their adolescense there, also in playful innocense. There were no incels there. Some homosexual activity could occur in this phase, just as some masturbation could occur, but everyone knew that that was inferior to the love between boy and girl, which all wanted and all got to share. They did not do ugly, dirty, pornographic stuff, which all comes from "secundary perverse drives", but only the natural, innocent and beautiful. Hence some homosexual play is not unnatural at that early stage, probably a remnant from our Bonobo like ancestors, where the boys learned to love and tolerate eachother like brothers, and not be so deadly jealous, but rather empatize with eachother, and share the girls without so much jealousy , like among the Vikings that an arab explorer encountered. Then that homosexual or bisexual phase would pass, and natural relation with women became the more exclusive interest. Homosexual mutual masturbation does not compare to "the loving embrace between man and woman", the true sexual union, so noone would remain stuck in that phase except through traumatization and being deprived. Offcourse in our society noone has a childhood and adolecense like this, hence all the mental illness and perversion . Auto gyno philia is then easily understood. Men long terribly for the love of women, but if they cannot develop a full natural relationship to them in real life, they must fantasize, in desperation, to try and fill the need for the complimentary feminine they don't have fulfilling access to in real life. Even if a man gets in the position to "mechanically fuck" a woman, this is not a full satisfactory love contact. As Reich discovered "mechanical fucking" only makes the man ejaculate prematurely, whereas the loving embrace leads to a full whole body extacy for both the man and the woman, a trancendent experience (probably involving endogenous DMT production). But as Reich discovered, neurotically armoured individuals are incapable of this full expression of love, due to the permanent neurotic muscle tensions in their bodies, which renders them emotionally crippled and insensitive, and unable to feel their own life energy. Being cut off from this union of love is what is driving people crazy, and the more broken their upbringing has been the more crazyness they are prone to. The most horrible thing is to not have a loving mother the first years, and/or to experience abuse or bullying. But even with a reasonably sane childhood, being denied a sane natural adolecense can be totally destructive in itself, so it's no wonder there are a lot of mentally ill people around with sexual abberations. No bonobo can live without love. Pretty much everyone, especially every boy/ man cut off from love will be driven in some direction of madness, suicide, perversion, hatred and evil. Since all societies in recorded history, save anomalies such as the Trobriand people, have been "broken" in comparison to the original situation, all that has been known has been perverted hateful situations, filled with repression, and sex maniacs. Especially since the dawning of manhood tests in order to become a warrior, where those who failed were considered women or children, and denied the possibility of marriage, and hence being cut of from women, leaving the option of homosexuality, fucking animals, or young boys. This is probably the root of adult passive homosexuality. Generally it affected the weaklings. Among the Spartans however it affected the "alpha males" too, as they had to deny themselves contact with women until they were over 30 and could marry. Before that they had to stay away from women, in order to avoid becoming soft, and hence ended up in the situation normally suffered by the weakling loosers. So they became homosexuals, and even pederasts. Most greek tribes developed this custom. It is important to realize that from a Reichian perspective mechanical fucking is antisocial sexual behavior. It is the sexuality of the neurotically armoured individual, and is driven from fantasies in the brain, developed during years of unhappy neurotic masturbation in the form of "jerking off"( in our days with ideas implanted from porn), not from a natural love impulse from the heart in the moment. It usually involves either the man dominating the woman using her like a fuckdoll, or the woman using the man as a dildo, both of which are ugly and inferior . In the loving embrace man and woman both humbly yields to, and is overtaken by, the energies of love, and there is no vulgar and brutal domination. Fucking is pseudoextatic trancendence downwards, the loving embrace is true trancendence upwards. Fucking is also something one more brutally competes for, with winners and loosers. It breaks the love in the people. (There is probably also a connection between fucking and warrape, and raping slaves.) According to Evola virgin originally meant a young woman who had not given birth. Why did it change meaning? I believe with the spread of fucking, which again spread due to armouring due to the traumatization from war, but also from traumatization of being denied a natural life in an increasingly "unnatural" society, a compounding effect of several factors creating a situation further and further away from the original one. Especially in multicultural areas, where jealousy would increase exponentially, as men would have to watch women of their own people fuck men of other peoples, creating enourmous amounts of hatred, even if several peoples cohabited in relative peace, such as in urban centers. A woman can share love and retain her innocence, but she cannot be fucked and retain her innocense. (Neither can a man fuck and retain his innocense.) It was probably this that lead to compulsary sexual morality being instated, it was an attempt to curtail the antisocial multicultural fucking. But then, as Tolstoy pointed out, the man would have to remain innocent until marriage also, not just the woman. But then they both should marry young, in their teens, since going without for too long would foster malice and perversion, and the man would be driven to prostitutes and "fallen" women. Initially there was perhaps true sacred prostitution, but the institution would have been increasingly abused, and eventually desacralized, to an unfortunate and disgusting industry where women would have offered their bodies to be fucked. When the prophets railed against unnatural lust, it seems reasonable to assume it was fucking they meant, not the loving embrace. The loving embrace on the other hand is driven by the primordial love impulse from the heart, and fosters love, it is a continuation of the "love indoctrination" by the mother, and upholds the love in the people. The original tribes of humans lived in "Eden "perhaps. But eventually as they differentiated what I call "the curse of multiculturalism", which eventually lead to "the situation of the middle east", manifested, due to internal societal changes and the traumatization from external war with other peoples. Then the love between man and woman in the people was broken, and primordial Matriarchy gradually degenerated, until finally patriarchy took over in a revolution of the warriors, perhaps originally as a response to female tyranny arising with degenerating matriarchy. (Patriarchy started as a mens right group perhaps, to restore gender equality.) In this situation, hell is other peoples. Other peoples are lethal threats. But with the mixing of people things get even worse, a total dissolution of society will occur. The final stage of the curse of multiculturalism. The emotional plague will become rampant. With knowledge and proper understanding perhaps things could be rectified. The knowledge of functional orgonomy. Perhaps once more we could become loving human bonobos, and not mechanically fucking demon chimpanzees."

Thank you so much for this information.

Thank you for discussing topics that I believe need to be addressed. Scientifically, we need to be objective on this topic, and many ideas are shunned. I believe I have AGP, many of these feelings mentioned resonate with me.

I'm actually genuinely curious how a 15 year old girl internalized the murder of George Floyd to somehow be all about her? You don't even ask her how she drew such lines, whether through her own flawed thinking, her mental illness or something that is actually happening in society that isn't her own delusion. This has been brought up in many of your interviews and you nod along like a lemming, offering no pushback or further clarification. I get that you're working in the "these kids are trans because of white guilt" angle, but who's ACTUALLY pushing that? Are adult black people telling white children they are responsible for racist cops? OR are immature teenage blacks telling their immature teenage white classmates in a fit of anger that they are connected to racism? You could help your guest to gain some clarity by dissecting this or clearing up any flawed thinking or misconceptions, but you don't, because you don't want your audience thinking too critically about these things. You are actually old enough to have witnessed (first-hand just like I did) the social contagion of the 1990's for white girls, cutting and anorexia were the popular ones, come and go, and this was decades before any "wokeness" or talks about internalized racism, and are a FAR better explanation than, "I thought I was trans because 2 of my classmates tried to make me feel bad about George Floyd". But let me guess, all the white girls starving themselves and cutting themselves was somehow black people's fault 30 years ago, too, right? Because diversity. or the LA riots. or proximity to melanin. or Whitney Houston on the radio. Or Naomi Campbell walking the runways of Paris.....or..... You do a disservice to this topic and your guest by not having any critical thinking behind any of this. You de-legitimize what is actually a necessary counter-conversation to the current dominant narrative about the origin of this new social contagion and how it manifested.

Typical biased argument focusing one a very specific condition. Sexuality, physical sex and gender identity are an infinite spectrum.

The point of exposing children to sexual content and sexual orientations is to traumatize and confuse them. Couple this with the child being told by a trusted mentor that thier parents will not accept them, alienating them. This leads the child into the arms of those who wish to use this malleable state. The state uses pdf.files in the school systems to enact the trauma. The castration, both surgicsl and medical, ushered on by instructors and doctors is nothing short of pure evil. Children cannot consent to gender treatments. The fact that the critical theories were being instructed in k-12 was hidden from parents until online schooling during covid. These people are sterilizing and traumatizing children. At alarming rates. This is evil. Pure and simple.

Do you support gender non conformity in males? Eg more fem presenting males of any orientation, being free to wear more "feminine" styles, but having it instilled that does NOT change their sex, worth, or orientation? Or are you more about maintaining sex based dress and grooming codes, or gender rules limits and stereotypes?

Kids likely desist due to bullying, which is REALLY over looked.

Here's an idea. Stop stigmatizing gender non conformity period. Stop shaming boys wanting to be "feminine" or girls wanting to be....oh wait, girls are encouraged to be more "masculine" to an extent. My parents' aversion to my gender non conformity might have pushed me more toward the trans path, and very likely if I grew up today, would have been far more pressured to transition.

I think you are completely on the right track. I'm 58 and have only in the last year become familiar with the term AGP. I live as a male but have always seen myself as wanting to be a girl. Yes, in my mind to be seen as and become female. I have fantasized endlessly what it would be like to transform into a woman. I do become excited when dressed and am turned on by my image in the mirror and in photos. so, self-love as a woman is the best way to describe it. I am not attracted to men but do like the aition gained by being seen as a woman. being told I look good. Or that they would want to date me. That part fulfills the idea I have of being female. Once I transform from male to female it does feel very powerful. the adrenalin rush is so strong and I feel very content in that moment. Thank you for what you are doing to help people understand another part of this puzzle!!!!! there is no straight line for point A to B. and it is very hard to live this life when it feels like no one understands!!! Thank you very much.. Jennifer

Speaking from personal experience, I would 100% recommend parents steer their children away from the University of Oregon, even more so than the Ivies. The degree to which that university is on board with the worst aspects of the trans stuff is shocking. Pronoun sharing is mandatory in every possible social setting. Being trans is social capital in the campus culture. Dorm rooms, as you said, are mixed-sex. I shared a 142 square foot dorm room with a male who "identified" as female, who sexually harassed and intimidated me for months. Upon trying to speak up about this, I was bullied to the point of having to leave campus permanently. I even got kicked out of a sorority for my troubles. The quality of education at that school has also plummeted in recent years, unsurprisingly. I moved to the UK to change universities and, while still very captured over here, there is opposition. It's not terribly loud or strong on campuses, but it is present in a way it simply is not in the States. Any American parent who can afford to, whose kid has taken AP exams, I would recommend looking into UK universities. They're cheaper than out-of-state tuition in the US, and the degree is worth more. Please don't send your kids to these insane institutions.

@10:20 We used to call this teenage angst.
