Media which includes or discusses intersex people.
Intersex is an umbrella term for people born with innate variations in their sex characteristics, which do not fit medical/social norms for male and female bodies. Sex characteristics include chromosomes, gonads, genitalia, hormones, and physical changes which emerge with puberty.
Being intersex is not the same as being trans or gender-diverse (TGD). Many intersex people are cisgender. As this is a TGD-focused website, intersex media is only included where TGD people also happen to be intersex, or where intersex experiences also happen to be discussed in TGD media.
