Intersex, Trans, and the Irrationality of Gender-Affirming-Care Bans

This Article provides a comprehensive legal analysis of gender-affirming-care bans, concluding that their internally inconsistent treatment of trans-affirming care and coercive intersex-normalizing interventions renders them irrational and thus unconstitutional under even rational-basis review. We further provide a normative vision for bodily self-determination to support both trans and intersex interests.
