Minors should receive gender-affirming care

"Gender-affirming care" in this context refers to:

- Social/psychological support, including:
     - Speaking with therapists with experience in gender-identity questions
     - Using gender-appropriate pronouns and names
     - Clothing, hairstyle, and voice changes appropriate to their preferred gender
     - Accommodations in school and other social places (e.g. name use)
- Medical interventions, including:
     - The use of puberty blockers to pause puberty
     - Hormone therapy to help develop gender-congruent physical traits

Eventually, when the minors become adults, they should be allowed to undergo surgeries such as:
     - Chest reconstruction
     - Breast augmentation
     - Genital surgery
     - Facial surgery

As adults, they should continue to receive hormone replacement therapy as needed.

Gender transition results in numerous benefits for trans people, including:

- Improved mental health, social functioning, the alleviation of gender dysphoria, and improved body satisfaction (https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38998870/ & https://opa.hhs.gov/sites/default/files/2023-08/gender-affirming-care-young-people.pdf)
- Lower odds of depression and suicidality after 12 months (https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35212746/)
- Results in high satisfaction and a very low regret rate (https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36149983/)
