| Summary: | This commentary responds to Moti Gorin's article “What Is the Aim of Pediatric ‘Gender-Affirming’ Care?” We argue that Gorin's case against pediatric gender-affirming care rests upon numerous false conceptual binaries: female/male, public/private, objective/subjective, and medically necessary/elective. Drawing on feminist bioethics, we show how such dichotomous thinking is both inaccurate and marginalizing of gender minorities. |
