Thesis (S.J.D.)--University of Toronto (Canada), 2023.

This dissertation examines how Canadian courts deploy scientific authority as an epistemic and discursive resource to allocate power and shape the autonomy of trans youth within the family. To understand how courts use scientific authority, I draw on the conceptual tools of trans-affirmative scholarship-most notably the notions of cisnormativity and transnormativity-and on the sociological theory of medicalization. By carefully analyzing the case law on social gender affirmation and parental behaviour towards trans youth, I demonstrate that scientific authority acts as a double-edged sword in the legal lives of trans youths. On the one hand, scientific authority secures limited forms of social gender affirmation. On the other hand, judges' deployment of scientific authority medicalizes transitude and expands the power of healthcare professional over trans youth's lives. Having medicalized transitude, family law seeks less the self-determination of trans youth than their management. This dissertation contributes to the growing body of legal scholarship on trans youth by problematizing family law's recourse to science and forging a path towards gender self-determination.
