Are Trans Women, Women? An Interview with Taf Taj on the Philosophy & Psychology of Gender

In this interview, I sit down with Taf Taj—trans woman, writer, podcast host, and incisive philosophical thinker—to explore one of the most controversial questions of our time: Are trans women women? Taf discusses her personal story of coming out at age 14, her experience with autogynephilia, and the psychological, cultural, and biological dimensions of gender. We go well beyond standard boilerplate to discuss the deeper ideas at play: medieval Nominalism and its consequences, natural law theory and its rejection, philosophical skepticism, and much more. Topics discussed include: The limits of medical justification for transition Autogynephilia and taboos around male sexuality Social contagion and adolescent gender dysphoria Cultural feminization and the decline of sexual dimorphism Religion, natural law, and post-theistic ethics The Objectivist theory of concepts Transition regret and the spectrum of outcomes #transgender #transwoman #philosophy #lgbt #religion #politics #morality
