I’m intersex. Non standard genitals. Times and times again I’m being made to choose to be a man or a woman. My pleas to get minimal hormones just to be healthy are ignored. I’m in medical debt due to dealing with debilitating complications from doctors forcing my body to be either female or male. Letting my body be it’s normal self minus what was causing actual issues was never an option. I’m deeply convinced if nonbinary people were acknowledged this wouldn’t be the case. I’m given zero control. Asking to be put on low dose is ignored. My only option is refusing all hormones and hoping my body will manage. I don’t have natural dysphoria, I get dysphoria from the surgical and hormonal changes forced upon me. I’m tired. Fuck nbphobia.
What the fuck they want you to be binary trans? For fucks sake. There are more nonbinary trans than binary ones!
Are they trans, though? They’re not transitioning, they were born with chimerism. Turns out no, on both counts!
I assumed based on context that they consider themselves nonbinary. I mean if they say its cisgender then fine I can respect that this isnt a medical transition but rather a medical hormone adjustment because they’re intersex. That is maybe a more accurate medical understanding of their sex and why the OP deserves an accurate hormone treatment.
Well, “intersex” (the word OP used) is nonbinary, no? And sometimes characterised by “nonstandard genitalia”. I was only aware of the genetic condition though, if OP is in a different situation then I’m completely unfamiliar. Hopefully I can find more to read, or they can provide a link; I’ll update here if I find anything else.
Ah, I see. I won’t ask, because you’ve said that’s not cool, but when I did Google it I only found similar to the article I linked. I’ll see if I can find anything else, but if you have paper(s) you feel describe what you’re experiencing and would like to provide link(s), I’d love to understand better. Of course, no pressure 😊
