If you are a woman, being intersex does not make you less of a woman.

If you are a man, being intersex does not make you less of a man.

If you are intersex and nonbinary, being intersex doesn't change who you are.

Your intersex status doesn't determine your gender. Your gender belongs to you.
Intersex isn't a bad word. Your intersex status doesn't determine your gender. Your gender belongs to you.

And this is why I stress that we cannot let genAI take over library processes. Try having genAI figure out how to catalogue that book. Humans use reasoning, our knowledge of the field, patron needs, and yes, our own biases and priorities. Cataloguing tells you a lot about a system's values.

Hateful behaviour. Yeah let's teach little girls that their bodies require monitoring and pruning and changing as soon as they pop out of the womb. Let's squeegee our newborns' skulls. Not if they're boys tho ❤️

Every person, including intersex & disabled people deserves affirming and knowledgeable healthcare rooted in the right to make decisions for their own bodies. We show up to
demand an end to medical violence and to create
systems where intersex rights are honored.

Tell your friends you love them as often as you can. You don't know what they're all going through, and the same goes for yourself to open up and let them know about you too.

Just try to take it easy, and one day at a time.
You are enough.

My latest silly art piece is this Lucha Libre poster of my friend Stephanie's dogs (collectively referred to as The Girls) having a wrassle while the eldest of them referees
A brightly coloured poster showing two small dogs in leotards and masks facing off above a bust portrait of a third dog wearing a whistle around her neck. The text on the poster reads: "CLEVER CLOVER VERSUS THE WILY WILLOW, with DAISY as referee! Sponsored by FLLC; La Federacion de Lucha Libre Canina" The text is rendered in cool toned primary colours.

Happy Pride, we will not be forgotten! We brought intersex visibility to WORLD PRIDE. Being out & proud as intersex isn't always easy. We can face misunderstanding & stigma—even in LGBTQIA+ spaces. But we also find community. We find resilience. We represent the beauty & diversity of intersex lives.
interACT Staff, Youth, friends & parents of intersex people march in the World Pride parade carrying an interACT banner. They wear yellow and purple, several wear intersex flags as capes, and they carry mini intersex flags. The audience looks on from the sidewalk. Closest to the camera is Apollo, in a purple bandana and mask, who wears a shirt with the intersex flag and an intersex moth. He also carries the asexual flag in his pocket. interACT staff Maddie and Bria smile under an intersex flag. Maddie is a white nonbinary person and has blue eyeliner, lipstick and curly hair, with a nose piercing and chain. Bria is a Black nonbinary person with curly hair pulled back and glasses. Both wear a shirt with the intersex flag and an intersex moth. Staff member Apollo and a youth member smile at the interACT table at world pride. The table has an interACT banner and lots of materials, buttons, stickers and resources. It also has a quiz wheel. They sit in front of a background with the intersex and the intersex-inclusive pride progress flag. A group of Pride attendees stands at the interACT booth talking to a Youth member. the interACT banner is visible and intersex flags are strung along the front.

happy pride month

gentle reminder that intersex people do exist, we're not a gender or automatically nonbinary, we matter, please do some research about the many conditions that fall under the intersex umbrella because we are vulnerable socially and legally but the science is fascinating

a photo of two cardstock prints. The print on the left has the text "You can't spell together without "T". The word Together has a rainbow drop shadow while the T has the stripes of the trans flag (blue/pink/white/pink/blue). On either side of the T is a trio of roses in the same three colours of the pride flag. The print on the right has the text "You can't spell inclusion without "I". The word Inclusion has a rainbow drop shadow while the I is yellow with a purple ring in it representing the intersex flag. On either side of the I is a yellow orchid with purple detailing that vaguely resembles the same purple ring on the I. a photo of two laminated stickers.

#Intergender: An #intersex person whose gender identity is connected to, or influenced by, being intersex.

Intersex is not a gender. But for some of us, our experiences of being intersex are inseparable from our gender journeys 💜
