Abstrakt: Political debate regarding trans youth's access to gender-affirming care (GAC) has pushed many to advocate for GAC by pointing to tragic, pathological outcomes of non-treatment, namely suicide. However, these pathologized arguments are a harmful ethical "shortcut" which should be replaced by a meaningful engagement with the ethics of providing GAC to youth. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
