Intersex Advocacy Groups

Intersex advocacy groups are organizations that support individuals born with intersex traits—physical variations in sex characteristics that don't fit typical definitions of male or female. These groups work to raise awareness, promote education, and advocate for the rights of intersex individuals, focusing on issues like bodily autonomy, informed consent, and the harmful effects of surgeries performed on intersex infants without their consent. They strive to create an inclusive society that respects and recognizes diverse identities, ultimately aiming to eliminate stigma and discrimination against intersex people.
