Abstract
Growing awareness and interest in understanding and addressing the occupational needs of transgender and gender-diverse (TGD) populations calls for further discussion surrounding how occupation is vital in facilitating trans joy and gender euphoria. Dominant discourses referring to TGD experiences largely focus on stories of challenge, statistics that demonstrate poor health outcomes compared to cisgender populations, and the medicalized aspects of gender transition. While recognizing that these experiences are relevant and important for many TGD people, it is equally important to include stories of joy and positivity. Within occupational science, there lies potential for exploring and deepening the understanding of how occupations facilitate positive gender-based experiences and feelings. This paper defies deficit-based understandings of TGD experiences and discusses the undeniable connection between gender euphoria, trans joy, and occupation. Finally, actionable steps are offered to ensure the ways of thinking about occupation from a place of centering joy can be integrated in tangible and impactful ways.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
