intersex justice

Intersex justice is about ensuring that individuals born with variations in sex characteristics—such as differences in chromosomes, hormones, or reproductive organs—are treated fairly and their rights respected. It advocates for ending harmful practices like non-consensual surgeries and stigmatization, promoting acceptance, informed consent, and access to appropriate healthcare. Intersex justice seeks to affirm intersex people's autonomy, challenge discrimination, and ensure legal protections so they can live free from prejudice and unnecessary medical intervention, fostering dignity and equality in society.
