Intersex people comprise nearly 2% of the world’s population, but exist largely in the shadows—marginalized by that “H-word” or physically conformed to fit a M/F box on a birth certificate via surgeries and hormones without their consent. Intersexcellence chronicles how activists like Alicia have survived and thrived beyond the binary, resisting erasure and hustling to raise visibility of their identities so that future generations of intersex children can see, and achieve, success. (Background: According to Planned Parenthood, intersex is a general term for a variety of conditions where a person is born with reproductive or sexual anatomy that doesn’t fit typical definitions of male or female bodies.)
Gender is fluid and sexuality is a spectrum, but the false binary of biological sex remains. While 150 million Intersex individuals worldwide stand as evidence to the contrary, they are often “normalized” in their youth by un-consented surgeries and stigmatized into silence thereafter. Whether by “bathroom bills” or medically-condoned genital mutilation, humans will continue to be forced into boxes that don’t exist until the Intersex movement has its moment. Gender equity activist Alicia Weigel shares her own experience as an Intersex individual and a call-to-action for more intersectional advocacy within the LGBTQIA+ and reproductive rights communities.
