Summary
The U.S. Supreme Court will hear US v Skrmetti on December 4, a pivotal case on whether transgender youth have a constitutional right to gender-affirming healthcare.
Tennessee is defending its ban on such care using testimony from six “expert” doctors, most of whom have been discredited in past court cases as biased and inexperienced.
Critics, including medical associations, argue the ban denies life-saving, evidence-based treatments.
The ruling could have profound implications for trans rights, bodily autonomy, and state control over healthcare, echoing parallels to abortion rights restrictions.
The eventual goal is to put all queer people back into the closet where they can update the old ‘Boys Beware’ movie from the 60s and put every queer person in prison for corrupting the youth.
