I thought that surgery wasn’t typically recommended for minors, anyway? Isn’t this already the status quo even among providers of gender affirming care?

Its not common, only a few hundred a year iirc and almost all are 16+. Theres a ton of gatekeeping short of like super wealthy and supportive parents bypassing some of that stuff but its not the norm at all

i don’t think they’d just fabricate a statement and guidelines if that’s what you mean?

yeah it’s entirely possibly the admin doesn’t follow through and issue the guidelines reflecting that

I don't know what's worse-- the Times for turning this nothingburger into a "Biden doesn't support trans people" narrative or the trans activists who took that narrative and ran with it, knowing full well that GA surgery for minors is Not Standard
