Californias state legislature passed a new resolution today (28 August) affirming the rights of intersex people. This makes them the first state in the US with such language and protection. https://www.gaystarnews.com/article/california-first-state-intersex-rights/ --- Witness The Trio Of Terror! https://i.imgtc.com/pvRMyIx.gif ...

If you're born with sexual characteristics of two genders, then yeah - you should have the right not to be surgically altered by your parents to make you present as one or the other.
More education for intersex people and their parents, and more freedom for an intersex person to decide their own course of action, is great for intersex people and the world around them. --- But if I've come here to drown, I'm gonna take a few people down.

Doe posted...Because such things tend to be particularly involved with someone's mental development and their eventual self identity? The problem is that choosing one sexual organ over the other might not be what the child is wired to. They may be wired to grow up male but their penis was cut off as a child. The comparison to cleft lips doesn't work as the self-identification aspect of the brain isn't really connected to the lips. There is a good SVU episode about this as well as interesting studies about growing up intersex. --- PoW '09 Topic of the Year Co-Winners (Rada and Texy) FFD ... Copied to Clipboard!

Mal is arguing the concept of infant surgery while removing the context of what being intersex is. Intersex people do run the risk of identifying as another sex than what their parents "chose" for their genitalia. Completely separate issue than even Trans, but often ignored / neglected.

Don't most intersex kids grow up identifying as the gender they resemble? Kastrada posted... The comparison to cleft lips doesn't work as the self-identification aspect of the brain isn't really connected to the lips. No i'm fairly certain that growing up looking like Quasimodo would have a much more profound effect on a child's psychology than what their junk looks like. --- The person who writes for fools is always sure of a large audience.

I don't have the numbers of that but it's still pre-emptive surgery that isn't really necessary. People can and do have healthy lives with both sex organs. B. The implication that cleft lips being the same as Quasimodo is a bit problematic. Cleft lips can be just cosmetic issues whereas having a hunched back could severely shorten a life span. I understand what you are saying about it hurting a child mentally but fixing a lip is less invasive and less tied to the brain than sexual organs. More so, fixing a cleft lip or palate will not cause undo harm to a child's mental state.

Except I'm pretty sure intersex kids mostly just grow up identifying as the gender they resemble. By not forcing one gender onto a kid, you're actually forcing sterility on them.

Are intersex people predominantly one or the other, or are they pefectly in the middle, and could be either one? Like, are they capable of getting a woman pregnant, but they could also be impregnated themselves? Or is it just more or less a deformation, and they otherwise have all the given features of either a male or female?
I have profound ingnorance when it comes to these people, so I apologize. --- Voted worst user on CE 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, and 2017 Current e-argument streak: 0 wins. 25404 losses. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Or is it just more or less a deformation, and they otherwise have all the given features of either a male or female? It's a variety of cases. Think of it as an umbrella term. Folks can be born with an enlarged clitoris resembling a penis or a micropenis conversely. Same with having XXY or XYY chromosomes. The old term was Hermaphrodite but that was someone having both set of genitals, which is just one conditions amongst many. In some cases they end up sterile. ... Copied to Clipboard!
