Fox News reports that Oren Ganor is that co-director, and he is making this call in the wake of numerous Republican states moving to outlaw the procedure of sex changes for minors.
Ganor’s article was first published in the Journal of the American Medical Association on March 14, 2023. He directly calls for the capacity to perform sex changes on minors to increase. The article reads:
“Physicians who provide GAC will face a greater burden due to constraints in certain states… work to criminalize GAC for adolescents,” and “Especially as certain states work to criminalize GAC for adolescents, there will be an increased flux of patients traveling to seek care in states with more open legislation.”

GAC stands for “gender-affirming care” and is a term often used by those who feel that individuals favor allowing sex changes on minors to be performed. It includes procedures and methods such as puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, and even major sex-change surgeries. In other words, it includes procedures that fundamentally change the nature of the way that a person looks and who they are.

Ganor calls for more clinics to be opened and for more training to be offered to doctors and other medical professionals who want to help people choose their sexual orientation and presentation.
The authors of this report say: “[P]lastic surgery residencies currently do not have a recommended number of gender-affirming surgery cases that plastic surgery trainees see during training,”

The Post Millennial reports that many conservative states, including Tennessee, Georgia, and Utah, have decided to ban sex change procedures on minors. The logic behind this in those states is that minors are too young to make this decision for themselves, which is why they have put those laws in place to protect children from having sex-change operations performed on them.

Those who are in favor of allowing these procedures to move forward say that these interventions are medically necessary procedures and cite suicide statistics as their reason for being in favor of allowing minors to change their sex at this time.
Boston Children’s Hospital told Fox News Digital the following:
“It is important to recognize that for many gender-diverse young people, the decision to engage in gender-affirming care can be lifesaving and life-changing. Without this care, gender-diverse youth can experience severe distress, anxiety, and depression,”
