This is a place to ask questions about intersex; be respectful and don't speak over intersex people here. Thanks!

If you're intersex and want to speak about your experience, feel free to do so here, or you can also head on over to r/intersex!

#Rules

1. No rudeness or bigotry.

Be respectful to others and don't engage in bigotry or -phobias of any kind. This is a trans- and nonbinary-inclusive space, and does not gatekeep what "counts" as "really" intersex. However, this is an intersex space first and foremost, and all posts must relate to that.

2. This is an intersex subreddit.

This is an intersex subreddit and all posts must relate to that. LGBT issues can overlap with intersex issues in a lot of ways (and many of us are LGBT too!), but this is a place where intersex voices are heard first and foremost.

3. No "help me make an intersex character" posts.

This sub is about understanding intersex people and our experiences. You should first listen to us and read about who we are before considering making an intersex character.

4. No fetishization or vilification.

This is not a place to fetishize or villify intersex people or our bodies. Posts and comments idealizing us, dehumanizing us, or sexualizing us will be removed.

5. Read the FAQ before posting.

Please don't post questions that are easily-answerable by reading our FAQ, such as "what is intersex", asking about the h-slur (which is not a term to use towards intersex people), etc.
