Intersex people are individuals born with any of several variations in sex characteristics including chromosomes, gonads, sex hormones or genitals that, according to the UN Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights, “do not fit the typical definitions for male or female bodies”.This range of atypical variation may be physically obvious from birth – babies may have ambiguous reproductive organs, or at the other extreme range it is not obvious and may remain unknown to people all their lives. Intersex people were previously referred to as hermaphrodites or “congenital eunuchs”. In the 19th and 20th centuries, some medical experts devised new nomenclature in an attempt to classify the characteristics that they had observed. It was the first attempt at creating a taxonomic classification system of intersex conditions. Intersex people were categorized as either having true hermaphroditism, female pseudohermaphroditism, or male pseudohermaphroditism. These terms are no longer used: terms including the word “hermaphrodite” are considered to be misleading, stigmatizing, and scientifically specious in reference to humans. A hermaphrodite is now defined as “an animal or plant having both male and female reproductive organs”. In 1917, Richard Goldschmidt created the term intersexuality to refer to a variety of physical sex ambiguities. Intersex people face stigmatization and discrimination from birth, or from discovery of an intersex trait, such as from puberty. Full HD.
