Transgender rights, including the medical treatment of transgender youth, is one of the most contentious cultural topics in 2020s mainstream media, invoking the topic of youth agency and potentially problematizing negative utilitarianism.

The topic of trans youth (in particular, gender-affirming healthcare, a topic of relevance to the culture war between conservatives/gender critical feminists and modern social justice orthodoxy) has been frequently linked with attraction to minors and the MAP Movement in the 2020s. This linkage takes two forms, theoretical (as described below), and associative - where the trans-ness or trans-inclusivity of MAPs or vice versa is weaponized by conservatives in political discourse. Some youth-liberationists, neutral and pro-c MAPs have advocated that the ongoing medicalization of transgender youth must be encouraged (or at least not resisted), as it will inevitably lead to the abandonment of negative utilitarianism, and adoption of evidence-based approaches with respect to the sexual agency of minors in general.
