Intersex and Gender Diversity
Intersex refers to individuals born with physical sex characteristics (such as chromosomes, gonads, or genitals) that don't fit typical definitions of male or female. Gender diversity encompasses a range of gender identities beyond the traditional binary of male and female, including non-binary, genderqueer, and genderfluid identities. Both concepts highlight the complexity of human biology and identity, emphasizing that not everyone fits neatly into established categories. Understanding intersex and gender diversity fosters inclusivity and respect for individuals' experiences and challenges societal norms regarding sex and gender.
