For years I’ve worried about the lack of respect Jews show to their transgendered rabbis.
You’d think the Holocaust would’ve educated us to be more sensitive.
Does not our Holy Torah command us not to judge men who dress as women?
I don’t see why a person’s unconventional gender choice should be a disqualification from the rabbinate.
Is a man wearing a woman’s clothing any less likely to work in Torah? Is a woman who chooses to live life as a man any less qualified to lead the davening?
What about a Yisrael who chooses to identify as a Cohen and tries to deliver the priestly benediction in an Orthodox shul?
