#intersex stuff
intersex bodies are just as natural and regular as perisex bodies, the only difference is that perisex bodies are more common. being intersex is not a birth defect in the same way being a perisex woman is not a birth defect. nothing broke, nothing is “wrong” with us, we are just less common.
being a perisex woman or a perisex man isn’t a medical condition and neither is being intersex. when our intersex conditions cause other health complications it is not because we are intersex, it is because of a medical condition associated with being intersex.
a person with a uterus who has endometriosis isn’t experiencing a symptom of having a uterus they are experiencing endometriosis.
intersex bodies are heavily medicalized. they are treated as problems that need to be solved, but being intersex isn’t a medical condition. we don’t need to be diagnosed and forced through “treatment” to make us as close to perisex as possible, we need support, awareness, and acceptance.
tldr; intersex bodies are just as natural as perisex bodies. intersex existence needs to stop being medicalized
