In this episode of Here’s What I Think, Steven Franco takes on one of the most uncomfortable topics facing the Orthodox Jewish community today: transgender identity and Jewish law.

This is not a political lecture and it is not a sugar-coated conversation. Steven looks at the clash between modern gender ideology and traditional halacha, asking hard questions about male and female identity, minyan, tefillin, modesty, mechitzah, Jewish schools, and the boundaries every Torah community must protect.

The episode is blunt, provocative, and unapologetic — but it also ends with an important Jewish principle: teshuvah. A Jew who is struggling is still a Jew. A person who regrets and wants to return is not lost. Jewish law has boundaries, but the door back to Hashem is never closed.

Warning: This episode discusses sensitive topics including gender transition, religious law, and bodily alteration from a traditional Orthodox perspective.
