variations of sex characteristics (VSC)

Variations of sex characteristics (VSC) are differences in physical features related to sex, such as chromosomes, hormones, or reproductive organs, that don't fit typical definitions of male or female. These variations can include differences in genitalia, gonads, or hormone levels, and may be present from birth. Examples include conditions like Turner syndrome or Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome. VSC are natural differences that highlight human biological diversity and should be understood without stigma, emphasizing that sex traits exist on a spectrum rather than as strict categories.
