SUMMARY:Creating the "Worthy" Patient in Transgender Medicine with Dr. Stef Shuster 
DESCRIPTION:
 For much of the 20th century, health providers 
 of transgender medicine have tacitly worked 
 within the logics of assigning "worth" to their 
 trans patients. In the 1950s, "worth" was 
 based upon patients who conformed to rigid gendered 
 expectations, held respectable jobs, and 
 acquiesced to medical authority. Notions of 
 worth continue to shape how medical providers 
 understand trans people, although "worth" 
 is now covertly defined as trans people who are 
 compliant, dutiful, and authentically trans.\n\n
