As a kid I just assumed I’d been born intersex and they’d “corrected” it. It was fun learning it wasn’t the case and then later learning that actually I was intersex and no they’d never noticed because I was only barely so and completely unrelated to that
Something like 2% of people are intersex. It's a huuuuge spectrum of intersex that many individuals don't even realize they have.
Holy fuck the YouTube comments are toxic lmao
Bigots are really active in their bigotry unfortunately, they're just more active in popular places (I'm not sure if it's because it's easier to access, which I disagree with or if it's because they want to expose the most number of people to their views)
Yeah people really underestimate how many of us there are.
If it isn't something you mind telling - what does 'barely so' mean in a context like this? Slightly larger clitoris, or just a lot more of both hormones because something something humans grow weird?
Vestigial second urethra. It and the main one were both slightly off location and mislocated urethra is an intersex condition. I’m also probably a chimera given that it’s not my only uncommon spare part.
Cool. Thanks!
