Intersex

As our scientific capabilities have expanded, we have had to come to terms with the fact that our binary concept of gender—male and female—is incorrect. Whether you measure it using genital morphology, hormones, or chromosomes, there is simply too much variety to try to force all human sex into one of two boxes. Intersex is the general term for any gender that’s neither male nor female. Today, intersex people are advocating for heightened understanding and fair treatment in medical and political fields. Pride has the latest on the intersex revolution.
