The Intersex Rights Movement

Episode 13 explores the experiences of intersex individuals- individuals who vary from the biological and societal norms for what are deemed the male and female sexes. As a community often- for better and worse- absorbed into the LGBTQ+ rights movement, intersex individuals are fighting for both social & legal recognition and bodily autonomy. Sean Saifa Wall, intersex activist and co-founder of the Intersex Justice Project, is our guest this episode and helps us unpack what the intersex rights movements looks like in both the UK and around the world.
