[–]OPPRESSED_REPTILIANIntersex male | GNC | Don't call me "a gay", "twink" or "queen" 32 insightful - 1 fun32 insightful - 0 fun33 insightful - 1 fun -  (4 children)

The intersex one is, unsurprisingly, completely medically inaccurate and offensive. Most of us ARE male or female, it's insulting AND scientifically wrong to say that, for example, a male with XXY syndrome is not male. And we are NOT "part of the LGBTQ+ community." Intersex people have repeatedly been asked to NOT be included yet trans activists keep doing this shit against our wishes.

This is disturbing because intersex is not an "identity" and it's not trivial language changing. if you teach your kids this shit and they meet someone with an intersex disorder then they will proceed to see them as an "other" and be more likely to discriminate. As well as the fact that the chance a kid with an intersex disorder reads this they're going to feel shit about themselves because the book is telling them they're basically an alien he-she that doesn't belong with men and women. It's gross.

Personally, I’m kind of impressed that the author managed to incorrectly define or obfuscate the meaning for almost every single term.

I absolutely agree with you though. The way this is phrased implies intersex people aren’t men and women. It’s degrading and offensive. Furthermore, it’s clear to anyone actually listening that including people with legitimate medical conditions is only to use them as a shield for trans people. Again, degrading and offensive.

You know intersex condition is used by TRA as example that there are more than two genders. That's why they say you're not male.
