"What does DSD mean?"
It means "Disorders of Sexual Development"; this is what intersex bodies are denoted as in a medical context. Most doctors don't even know the word intersex.
This term is harmful.
This term is intersexist.
This term is not preferred by us.
The term “DSD” is one of the many ways in which intersex people are told we don’t exist as whole fully-formed people in our natural bodies. The medical establishment attempts to sort us as male or female; the only way to do this is to denote our intersex traits as disordered. Which implies we must be “fixed”. Framing intersex bodies as a problem and a disorder will always lead to violence against intersex people.
You may have heard the term “DSD” be used to stand for “Differences of Sexual Development”, this is not what the term was originally coined to mean, it is backpedaling in a poor attempt to appease those who dislike the actual meaning of the term. This is not a preferred term due to the fact it is the same acronym.
The term DSD was chosen over intersex in 2005 at a conference where intersex people were barred from attending. It was then included into the DSM-V, and adopted across all medical fields, without any input from intersex people themselves.
The community is actively fighting back against this term.
We do not like that it is the accepted label, I personally consider it derogatory. The vast majority of us prefer the term intersex. If you see someone using the term DSD, they likely align themselves with bigoted spaces, and believe in the pathologization of intersex bodies, which is the dominant medical standard.
Please recognize that otherwise reputable medical sources use this terminology and believe we should be "fixed". This is not a source to cite as to why DSD is correct, this is an oppressive stain that reminds us that our movement for liberation is in the fucking toilet. This is BAD.
Do not be afraid to challenge the medical field. Things never improve without pushback.
Black people are STILL believed to feel less pain, this is in currently used medical textbooks, and causes black people's pain to not be taken seriously.
People with cluster B personality disorders used to be lobotomized.
Homosexuality used to be called 'homophilia' and was treated with electroshock therapy.
A woman showing literally any emotion would be slapped with a hysteria diagnosis and all her feelings and concerns were immediately discredited.
The medical filed is not perfect and unchallengable, especially around matters of minority groups.

I don’t know who’ll end up writing the history of Palestinian genocide. But I desperately hope that despite whatever lies they spew, however they try to rewrite their actions, people don’t forget the perpetrators. Israel yes, but also the USA. UK. Germany. France. All the motherfuckers who are directly funding, and directly preventing a ceasefire. This is not “being complicit”. This is abetting, supporting and committing genocide. Do not forget. Don’t just dismiss and forget about Joe Biden. This man is a war criminal.

honestly i was not built to fall asleep.
I WILL NEVER SLEEP... EVER!
i will stay awake for all if eternity, i WILL be concious for all of it.
this life has done things to me im not yet fully aware of and the result is that i do not actually know how to go to sleep and will actually subconsciously avoid going to sleep.
like going to sleep is not actually in my skill set, i have not unlocked 'falling alseep' on ny skill tree...
is this trust issues on coke???
i just never want to be alseep its top 10 most displeasing and unwanted things to think about and experience the knowledge of that thing existing.
so on top of the horrors that have been bred from society and just the universe as well. i also have to experience THINKING about HAVING THE KNOWLEDGE of the existence of the horrors (knowing also that they are inevitable and half of them im almost guaranteed to experience it actually happening) but ive got the fun traits of imagining them things happening and having to experience the thought of the thing existing. wtf is this bs ?
anyone relate?

for fuck sake why am i cursed with being ferociously in need of being in the full time company of another person who is almost exactly like me in every way. i might even be happy with a clone of myself to hang around with all day.
WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS CALLED AND WHY DOES IT EXIST!!!
but also if what im craving is just more of me...why can i not be satisfied with just being alone...with myself...???
i literally love so many things but always being alone doesnt help me...
what do i need?? what do i doo??
HOW DO I FUCKING MOVE OUT WHEN THE COST OF LIVING IS NOT POSSIBLE AND HOUSING IS LIKE NAH " U AIN' GOT THE FACILITY FOR THAT BIG MAN 🖕"
🤬😖😫😵💫😵

when I see something dated 2019 I think “oh that’s not too long ago” and then I remember that 2019 was not only five years ago but those five years have somehow contained several lifetimes
