      ​​​@@Y1836Y i was waiting for the Rabbi to mention the Jewish idea of gender roles: masculinity is giving out infinite abstract potential. Femininity is choosing one option and realizing it. Everything that exists in Creation has a male and a female component, even something as basic as a line, which begins with an intangible point with the infinite potential to go anywhere, but only gains dimensions by being extended into a line. But a line is only one possible reality that the initial point could have formed.
      Action is binary (do or do not, there is no try), like Halacha must be binary, and since the body concerns acting out the relative missions, I suspect any soul leaning masculine in purpose gets schlepped into a male body, and likewise any soul leaning feminine gets a female body. Thus souls ranging from 100% masculine to 51% masculine get a male body, and vise versa, which preserves the reality of both binary sex and also the reality that each person has a slightly different purpose.

    I think that people who want to change their gender are searching for their own authenticity.
    Two-component paint is like a marriage - two parts that mix and never agree on who is really responsible for the mess in the garage.
    One part of the color always says, "This is my chance to shine!" The other part quickly replies, "You can't shine without me!" And so, their comical battle for attention begins.
    Some say that when two-component paint is mixed, magic is created. It's true, but sometimes that "magic" ends up being a vague shade that no one is happy with.
    Two-component paint on the wall often behaves like two people trying to tango without a practiced step. In the end, the wall ends up with a few unexpected patterns that weren't part of the plan.
    The joke is that, while these pieces of paint fight and compete with each other, the walls become like a canvas on which artists tirelessly create their unconventional masterpieces.
    In short, two-component paint is like a sitcom where two characters keep getting into funny situations, and the result is always something unexpected and incredibly funny! 🎨😄

    As a psychotherapist, I had a client who transitioned from female to male. I was not treating him for a gender transition. When I first met her, she was in a lesbian relationship, and I was doing couple’s therapy. They moved to Seattle. In Seattle, my client, let’s call her/him X, discovered the trans community, and decided that being a “butch” lesbian was the best she could do, but that her soul (she didn’t use that word) was masculine. So she began the process of transitioning from she to he. His female partner accepted it. Tragically, she died of illness, while still in her thirties. X decided to move back to Minnesota. He was well on the way to transitioning, dressing in male clothes, using hormones, had changed his name. Over the next few years he had major surgeries to remake his body. The hardest part of working with him, on other issues, was changing his pronouns. When his voice changed, it was easier. He believes he was always a man, somehow trapped in a woman’s body. Although I am very empathic, I could never really understand what it was like to be him. In his sixties now, he is having serious health problems, which I believe are due to the drastic surgeries he went through to change his body. So the question that occurs to me is, is it possible that he was a male soul in a female body.

  • @zaydeshaddox7015
    @zaydeshaddox7015 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    With all due respect to the Rabbi, I disagree here. I can think of people who think they are trans coming up with arguments that counter everything he's said. If I may be so bold, what people are missing here is that male and female are biological synergies, meaning, you can't reduce it to just one thing like a uterus. A woman is defined, first of all, by the fact that she is human (as opposed to any other animal) and has reached fertility or has aged beyond it (as opposed to a little girl), and then the female aspect is a whole bunch of stuff: XX chromosomes, all or at least most of the reproductive organs, containing eggs, wider hips, narrower shoulders, certain combination of hormones (lots of estrogen and comparatively little testosterone), a thin layer of fat under the skin that softens her contours and makes the skin feel softer, a different tone of voice, shorter than most men, smaller hands and feet, and then a variety of behavioral characteristics. A woman isn't every single one of these things put together, but at least a majority of them put together, the most critical being the XX chomosomes, which determine the rest of it. Any given woman may have a deeper voice, as Shorah Agdashloo does, or narrower hips, or she may be infertile, or she may have big hands and feet or a more manly face or she may be 6'2", but the rest of the characteristics are there.
    The same could be said for a man. I won't go down a list because I think everyone gets the gist. There is a multitude of biological and behavioral characteristics that all combine together to determine a person's sex. A single or perhaps a small number of characteristics may be missing from that person, but the remaining majority still shows what sex that person is.
    And "gender" has become a somewhat ambiguous word that is thrown around very carelessly, but then regarded with an undeserving precision. Depending on context, it can be synonymous with the biological sex, but it can also refer to each of those individual characteristics associated with the sex. OR it could have little to no biological reference at all, as is the case with gendered languages, since some inanimate objects are given masculine or feminine pronouns for no ostensible reason.

      Therefore we must begin to define "free-will" in all its relationships. Typically its the obviation of "choice" that begins it. (the results, based on the anticipation of the ramifications of the choice) Meaning the fulfillment of a decision based on choice of stimulus. Is an animal free to roam anywhere and eat what it chooses? Is that free-will, or not will? what's the difference? One could say animals have free will based on this obviating choice. I pose that self-awareness and free-will are not the same neither are they extensions of the other. As you said Adam had free-will before he became self-aware... However He now became aware of his choices within his own conscious, he could "reflect" on the choice more than obviate the choice.. He always had free-will to make choices, therefore free-will has nothing to do with self-awareness!@@johnny12022

    Rabbi Friedman, have you forgotten something? Jewish law, taken almost entirely from the Torah, recognizes SIX genders, not just two. There are men and women, but there is also tumtum, ay'lonit, saris and androgynos. Tumtum - is a person who's sexual characteristics are hidden or obscured. Ay'lonit - is a woman who doesn't develop secondary sex characteristics and is assumed infertile. Saris - are men that do not develop secondary sex characteristics or have those secondary characteristics removed, for example eunuchs. Androgynos - are those people that exhibit sexual characteristics of men and women. Even in Liviticus it lays out specific laws for men, women, saris, and the other three genders. How can you claim only make souls go into male bodies? What about the male bodies born with these other characteristics that would change how and what Levitical laws apply to them? What happens if there is an accident or the male bodied person chooses to have characteristics removed or changed making them fall under the laws for saris and the laws fir males no longer completely apply to them? If you're going to talk about gender and what Judaism really says about transgenderism, then you need to do your research and bring in every gender mentioned in Torah and the laws from Leviticus and how they apply to each gender and how each gender is defined. You can't JUST talk about men and women as uf thise are the only two genders mentioned in Torah. I would feel ashamed to call myself a rabbi if I were speaking on a topic from the Torah and did not do my best to fully research and present all all the facts. Just as we need to remove our egos we also need to remove our own personal prejudices and social engineering and approach all Torah with an open mind to whatever it may have to teach us, even if it contradicts our own long held beliefs. We can be wrong, but Torah can not be wrong.

There seemed to be a lot of jumping around, going from “what is a man” to “sexual dysfunction” and disjointed analogies (the president having the power to veto equates to people getting nothing done because everyone just debates all day. Vetoes are implemented by the president if he disagrees with a majority-based decision made by congress) perhaps someone can help me make his discussion sensical? I felt as if nothing was accomplished here on the topic.

    Thank you for this video.
    For my part, I've been considering this and other LGBTQ subjects for a long, long time, trying to decide what to make of them. I'm coming to the conclusion that the destination I will arrive at eventually is to honestly look up to these souls as people who carry some of the heaviest burdens of all and wrestle with some of the biggest battles life has to offer, while not agreeing with the easy answers most seem to come to. I think it's hard to do both at the same time, our current culture seems to discourage that, and many don't seem to feel respected if you disagree with their conclusions. But yet it certainly seems to me to be the highest and best place to be and the place the road I'm on seems to be leading to.

      Wow. You are so kind. I have such a différent take on the subject.
      I think these people were never taught self control and they put their sexual desires over everything else.
      I think they are sick individuals ( we all have something to fix and eliminate) who have been given the gift of fixing their sexual perversions and returning to a pious life.
      Or, to keep sinning in sexual immorality. We all have free will.

      @@avalerie4467 I understand what you're saying. What I'm saying, though, is imagine if the issue you had to wrestle with was wrapped around your very identity as a person, and not just some relatively peripheral habit. Or if it basically rendered you completely infertile and cut you off entirely from the normal flow of life. This isn't a drinking problem or anger management issue. These cut to the core of a person's existence. This is why I say these are some of the heaviest burdens a person can bear, and why I think I'll end up looking up to those who fight and win the battle. This is heavy stuff.

      I'll agree though with a few qualifications. You're hearing a minority, albeit in the public domain, and attributing it to all of us. Some people talk and it's all about I. Not me or myself which are more subordinate references to the self. Have noticed too with much saying "my" in places it's not appropriate. It wasn't like this previously. Part of our devolving towards a country in absolute and utter confusion and chaos. All the easier to control, their ultimate goal. That's why these videos are so important. Get us away from the me monster or more accurately the I monster.

    there are times though when congress is deadlocked and nothing happens. the american president cannot force a decision.

    agree with you a man is a man and a woman is a woman and no one can do the other roles as you mentioned a man can't be pregnant and also can't do much more as a woman do and woman can't accomplish same genetically task as man .
    about the main subject
    israël was cited in all holly book torah bible and quran and not all israël population are Jewish ,but jewish can be everywhere ,i leave you response what was the mean of israël in all holly books and what was the mean of jewish also especially in mitzvah;
    roman and grec and israël population are not all a real christian but a real christian can be everywhere ;
    arabs are not all muslim but a muslim can be everywhere ;
    the advises was for everyoned
    can be everywhere=peaceful-er
    about gender and transgenderism:
    an addictive to drugs or alcohol or others things like cheating was born as addicted ,he need psychological trait care
    it's the same things is like a vice an addiction that devil push a human to do to finally made this earth not proper .
    GOD said the devil was and is your enemy don't follow his path .

      i suppose you mean "be fruitful and multiply" among other things. my point is, does everyone know and ACCEPT this when told?
      by extension, the prohibition of putting on that which pertains to the opposite sex is also linked to our respective missions. the fly on a man's pants allows HIM to procreate, but does not allow HER to be delivered of her child. yet fashion is full of legged lowers made of newer fibers to allow a woman to pursue an active lifestyle. as if a scotsman in a tunic and great kilt was too restricted by his clothing to ride horseback and defeat the english time after time.

    The problem is, a young child does not know what it means to be either a man or a woman in all its ramifications. He is a child and lacks experience. The child may sense, on a very deep level that he is meant to be a man, and she is meant to be a woman. However, because the child is innocent, he is all too easily influenced by teachers and other people in his life, and if he is hearing from them that he should change his sex, he far too often comes to believe it.; That is when public schools - far too often - step in to administer puberty blockers, and convince that child that he, or she, should have sex change surgery. This surgery is not reversible, and the effects of the puberty blockers may not be reversible, either.

We can't guide our children I've we don't get it. And if we're willing to let any outsiders direct us as if they know better.
      Want to know how many people who got reassignment surgery are still uncomfortable in their bodies? Or now they're also mutilated. Surgery doesn't help a psychological.issue, it exascerberates it. We can't guide our children if we're confused. Yes the government is trying to take thise decisions out of our hands. All meant to destroy that which we know to be true. All the better to control totally.

    The men in my family were protectors
    They were patient and sensitive and answering all
    Questions and when I was a child I had a million questions how come the flowers are different colors how come we have different fruits how come there's so many different smells how come I would ask my father continuously my father said since the day I started speaking my first words were how come I wanted answers
    I find myself still asking how come
    And I find wise men like Rabbi Friedman
    The magnificent a strong
    Ethics and moral character high-fiber to look up to to believe in to gain understanding and wisdom from to be able to rest and close your eyes and know that you are safe what is a man a man is
    Strengths and the house of a home is ability to work and to guide and to love and to devote himself to God putting one foot forward
    To becoming better version of himself every single day to be the best father the best husband possible to walk away at times of frustration but yet to be soft gentle and understanding to their children when they are little but be wise enough to teach them the meaning of no to teach them discipline so they have guides that will help them out for the rest of their lives so they can be a good student to be the best that they can possibly be to have the best possible life.
    That is what a man is to me.
    Not just a joke.
    But a man to be admired for his daughters to look up to to sons to have a hero to want to be like for their parents to be taken care of by their good sons of a man or the explorers the adventurers the kings of their homes to provide all that is needed for a mother's love cannot proviy the everlasting wisdom of father
    But you never want to disappoint
    So discipline is rare
    The given swiftly when necessary to teach and curved the animal intentions within all children so they can grow up to be a human being separate from the beast and wild
