Thank you so much. I don’t have a gender questioning child but I am the parent of 4 gen z young people. I am learning so much from you both on how to help my kids. My kids do have trans and non conforming friends and I have two children who are active in the LGBTQ community.

Wow. Oxygen and light pouring in in a topic area where we there is no space for growth and evolution. I have needed space to think my thoughts and feel my feels and I have only found politicos and belligerents and thought police on both sides, until now… There is real thinking happening here...Read full review »

This is a great show - very useful information from different perspectives.
LizAnne S via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 03/14/23
Here’s my question for the hosts: Can you tell me your unconscious reasons for your gender? You seem very invested in your “curiosity” about the unconscious reasons “why” trans and non-binary people express themselves. So, please, tell me your process for becoming the gender that you are! I’m...Read full review »

Incredibly illuminating to see the 5 vs 1-0 reviews on this podcast which neatly encapsulates the topic that I believe to be one of the most complicated and important discussions of our time . Bravo to Stella and Sasha for taking this on in an open and compassionate way. I don’t have a dog in...Read full review »

The invalidation of non-binary identities, consistent misgendering of gender non conforming people, and regular reiteration for parents to brush off their child’s coming out while give false platitudes has true potential to cause more harm than help to gender non conforming people and misinform...Read full review »

Wow. I am so relieved to be hearing these perspectives! Thinking about these gender issues often keep me up at night and I felt so alone. The hosts speak with such clarity and reason, and it’s hard to swallow that they are being “brave” for doing so, but they really are! These conversations...Read full review »

Gender, a Wider Lense is a brilliant podcast. Both of the hosts are experienced and knowledgeable therapists who work with gender questioning youth and their families. They talk about the issues around gender identity, but they go beyond the “affirmative” model of care and look at underlying...Read full review »

I was hoping to find a podcast that presents information about both sides of what seems to be currently a very hot topic. This podcast unfortunately is very one-sided and anti-trans without presenting sufficient evidence to support this sentiment. The podcasts are based on opinions which are...Read full review »

This podcast has consistently talked to the people who matter in the world of treatment for gender dysphoria. Interviews with proponents and critics of puberty-blocking drugs and gender ideology help the listener form a fully informed opinion. The episode with the pioneers of the Dutch approach,...Read full review »

Great balanced podcast Definitely helped me understand a world I never thought I would experience
warrij via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 02/04/23
If you care about gender issues, especially questions around the appropriate care of gender questioning kids and teens, you should listen and support this excellent show. It’s been a godsend to me and I can’t wait for the next level programming Sasha and Stella plan to deliver in 2023.
Bobby's batteries via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/04/23
This is a very thoughtful podcast that has helped me a great deal in thinking through issues of gender at a time when it is difficult to find a safe space to ask questions
Shadey Kay via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/23/23
Great source of support and information for parents of gender questioning children. Fully recommend.
Rrs4 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/23/23
Basically everyone should listen to this. Commonsense, compassion, humour and detailed information in a world gone crazy. Thank you

Offensive and misinformed
jade89899 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/06/22
This is a podcast about sticking to the binary and not supporting our lgbtq2+ communities. First listened to episode 92, where I was blown away about the lack in interest of the actual story but more interest on how she engaged in sexual activity. Furthermore, listening to the next few episodes...Read full review »

Sasha & Stella are bringing an important issue to light with thoughtful conversation and the research to back it up.
Megpie206 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/02/22
I am one of those people who always are listening to different podcasts. Honestly this is one of the best. Very informative simple and at the same time deep and science based. Great job Sasha and Stella. I wish all psychologists and psychotherapists are deep, understanding and responsible as you.

Let’s explore the unconscious in this area in depth Vs compulsion vs borderline PD
lovealways# via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 11/06/22
Stella and Sasha are amazing. We started listening shortly after our 17 year old told us she wanted to transition. We simply would not have known what was going on without this podcast. If your child has been caught up in Gender, you need to listen to this podcast from 1st to now.
Sawchuk3360 via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 11/04/22
This show is such a breath of fresh air. Stella O'Malley is fun and easy going, but she knows her stuff and has a personal history that is relevant and interesting. Sasha Ayad is one of the most thoughful people I have ever heard. I am constantly suprised and enriched by her ability to see...Read full review »

Excellent interviews and powerful first hand experiences which I have no doubt - will stand the test of time. Politicians should be listening - this is the biggest medical scandal of our age.

Thanks this podcast is giving voice to the silenced.
Poorinda via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 10/14/22
Thank you, Sasha and Stella, for your calm, curious, sane approach to this issue. You have led me to all sorts of further research as I’ve looked further into your guests who deep dive with you into so many facets of the trans debate. Your kind voices keep me from panicking as I go on this ROGD...Read full review »

Hands down, the most valuable discursive podcast available right now. Every single episode adds more to my understanding of gender, of adolescence, identity transitions, existential questions, the ambivalence of the human experience, meaning and psychoanalysis, the therapeutic process and the...Read full review »

Institutions in the West have been captured by gender-identity ideology, and more broadly by “critical social justice” ideologies particularly surrounding race, but we are in the midst of a profound pushback from the wider society now that people have begun to wake up to the falsehoods,...Read full review »

This has quickly and unexpectedly become my favorite podcast. The hosts are thoughtful, even-handed and engaging. I have heard some amazing stories and conversations here that have given me a lot of food for thought, in sharp contrast to the typical “conversation” around this topic. There is a...Read full review »

Unfortunately we are living in an age of mass delusion about sex and gender. There has been a dangerous current of sex denialism in favor of self-selected gender identities. This has led to everything from unnecessary and irreversible medication of children to housing men in women’s prisons under...Read full review »
Shadow Rosie via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/24/22
Forget the ideology. Ignore modern activism on either side of the debates about gender. Critique is fine, but what does science and honest practice tell us about the gender diverse population, and Heck, about all of us? Our hosts are honest clinicians who I believe truly understand what is...Read full review »

Evidence based approach to advocacy for gender questioning teens. Brilliant.
Doctor Jane via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 08/21/22

There is nothing about this podcast that is coming from a place of transphobia. As the mom of a gender questioning teenager, I found it to be a source of balanced information. If you believe in the scientific method, this is for you. If you believe that the current new movement of gender...Read full review »
kikisummers1976 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/05/22
The negative reviews of this podcast are unwarranted and many seem to be made without even listening. The hosts are knowledgeable and open to criticism. They both clearly care about their patients and want parents to have the best information. It comes across as very rational, measured and...Read full review »
B'Elanna Torres via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/02/22
I was really hoping for a objective and balanced consideration of the complex set of issues surrounding gender. While the hosts avoid the common practice of using the transgender movement to whip up sexist and homophobic bigotry, they very clearly have an agenda that is generally hostile to...Read full review »

Whenever someone says something along the lines of “these voices are being silenced” or “we need a balanced discussion” I know there probably isn’t that much of worth that they have to say. Just because an opinion isn’t heard as much or is unfavorable in the public eye is not a reason in and of...Read full review »

I’ve been a faithful listener from the beginning. Chock full of insight and facts that I can’t find anywhere else. Perfect to have in my knowledge base which is incredibly useful when speaking with others about this subject. Very easy to listen to.

This podcast undermines genderqueerness. If you’re looking for a pod to explore more about gender, THIS IS NOT IT! Don’t hurt yourself and listen to these harmful narratives full of really cringey language
chaoticpodfreak via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/19/22
I think the 1-star reviews are from people who are too scared to consider views and situations that go against their ridged and ideological world views. This podcast has helped me so much on my gender journey/journey to self acceptance. It explores a lot of topics that many others avoid for...Read full review »
the forbidden candy via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/19/22
It’s very clear from the subjects they choose to cover that they don’t have transgender peoples best interest in mind. While they might give off an air of impartiality there is a powerful agenda at play here. They want to fear-monger and mislead people, both transgender people and their would-be...Read full review »
The Octopus Cats via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/15/22
Title says it all. Trans people feel free to skip this one. It’s pretty obvious after about 5 minutes that these hosts mostly want people to detransition, not transition healthily. Listened to about half of the episode until I couldn’t anymore. Highlights - comparing trans people to addicts (no...Read full review »
Does now work at all via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/09/22
I’m prefacing my review by saying I’ve only listened the Non-binary episode (E39). Both hosts seem knowledgeable and intelligent, and seem like they are operating in good faith. It is also apparent to me that they don’t believe in the validity of the trans, non-binary, or, frankly, even the...Read full review »

Comprehensive studies of critical sexual development and identification. Well done! Brilliant. So good to have the tools and words to understand these issues. Thank you.

These ladies are both brilliant and brave. They deeply care about the mental health of our children. Their perspective is life changing and life saving.

So I’m a trans person ok and I think a lot of these episodes are ok and perhaps helpful but please I swear to god please don’t be promoting the idea that ROGD is real.

These podcasts have brought me understanding and helpful talking points that I can discuss with my child as we try to figure out the road of ROGD.
