How much of a role does internalized homophobia play in the decision to transition?
This podcast is the regurgitation of an in depth conversation about the experience of autosexuality (sexual or romantic attraction to oneself), which often manifests as homosexuality. Meta sexuality is the ingredient that seems to turn auto sexuality into homosexuality.
Here is a glossary of terms for anyone not already steeped in sexological discourse:
Auto = self
Allo = other
Gyne = female
Andro = male
Meta = self-referential
To use in a sentence… an allogynephilic male is the clinical term for straight man. He is male, and experiences external attraction to females. Lesbians, which both your hosts here are (regardless of how Aaron feels about that word), are also allogynephilic. But in the hosts case it appears to be the result of autosexuality. For Tali, that was attraction to her own female body projected externally. For Aaron, that was the manifestation of an internal desire to be male (meta-attraction). How many other lesbians can trace their allogynephilia to autosexuality?
