things that ive seen non-intersex people on tumblr call intersexist:
- me, an intersex person, because of a personal vent post about my body that i made and got spread around by non-intersex people
- literally thats about the only use of the word ‘intersexist’ ive seen here
things that are actually intersexist no one will call that:
- futanari
- xx/xy chromosones in place of just saying dmab/dfab
- equating genitalia with gender bc its somehow ok to do that to us but not to non-intersex trans people
- ‘you cant be intersex and trans youre just intersex’ vs ‘you cant be cis if youre intersex youre automatically cis from birth somehow’
- a lot of things that are already transmisogynistic that people wont make the step to say also heavily apply to intersex ppl (notably ‘lesbians dont have dicks’ bc thats gross and inaccurate and excludes intersex lesbians + trans women, and yknow, even intersex trans women)
I never see much from an intersex person’s point of view, this is a really good post
and a lot of this is because radfems etc say “intersex people don’t want to be brought into this” so they can’t be called out on their shit.
