Most TERF arguments I see against intersex people seem to not actually be responses to things intersex people are actually saying.

For example;

"The only gametes are sperm and ova"

"Humans can't be hermaphrodites"

"There is no third sex"

Exactly what intersex person is saying there are isogamous humans, we are hermaphrodites, and intersex people are a third sex? This all seems to be stuff that comes from well-meaning but uneducated perisex trans people, and most of these TERFs have never actually spoken to an intersex liberationist.

For this reason I think it's very important we (the intersex community) teach our perisex trans siblings about intersexuality and intersex liberationist ideas, such as the abolition of binary sex categorization, not a creation of a sex trinary. Sex traits are real, but "biological sexes" are just names we have given to clusters of sex traits which don't necessarily need to appear in specific tandem, and often can be changed later in life.

The first 40 minutes of this video is a great resource for learning about the general complexity of gonochoric sex determination as well as the specific ways in which a person can be intersex and what it means. It's an incredible introduction to the topic and Forrest Valkai is in general an excellent science communicator.

Intersex people do not prove the existence of trans people, but we do provide a very glaring examples of problems with bigoted frameworks about sex and gender. It's not intersexist to point this out as long as you do so correctly and with the intention of actually making a point about intersex people instead of using us as a rhetorical tool only for the purpose of validating perisex trans people.

And importantly there is no "correct" or "incorrect" way for a person's sex traits to develop. The idea that intersex people were "supposed to" develop differently but failed to do so is the reason the abuse enacted upon us is considered "corrective".

Intersex liberationist ideas generally follow the idea that the binary model of sex is what causes our abuse and suppression, and should therefore be changed or abolished altogether. What this means on a material level is not considering sex trait clusters to be "sexes", instead seeing these as individual anatomical features of a person, essentially nobody (including perisex people) should be assigned a sex and ASAB as a system of categorization should be done away with. Having a penis or a vulva or testes or breasts or a uterus should be viewed as just an anatomical feature you posess, such as brown eyes or being tall, rather than an inherent multifaceted category you are part of.

Bucky: Eats leafs. They sit still but he can't get a grisp on them. Sometimes little pieces end up sitting on top of his little head. But this does not deter him… slowly but surely, he will eat this lettuce

Sami went to this place today to bring some flour for his large family who are suffering like many people in Gaza. Sami is putting himself in danger in order to feed his family. He could have bought flour, but there is no source of income for him and his family because of the lack of life and the complete destruction of the infrastructure. Even baby milk is only available at very high prices. Netanyahu says all the people of Gaza must be killed. Even the children must be killed in his view because they were born there. Donate anything to Sami's family, anything that saves their lives.

"trans men benefit from female privilege" is the most out of touch statement ever. Yeah we don't see you as a man, just a broken woman. You benefit from this, somehow, because I don't like you, because you are transgender & an evil power-wielding bitch. Like aang the last privilege-bender

+ if trans men benefit from being seen as women, do trans women that are seen as men have male privilege?? + what in the actual fuck is female privilege. + how can I as a trans man have male privilege, despite also being seen as female & having ""female privilege."" has the power to stop misogyny been in my hands this entire time??? Do you just need to say you're transmasc to escape any type of gendered oppression, despite facing misogyny ever since I was born?? It stops just like that?? Have I cracked the code???? When I was being sexually violated by guys in school did I just have to say ERM I use he/him pronouns & then it would've stopped?? Just like that??? Like if you can gather all the magical gender stones & insert them into the door to eternity in the cave of supreme destiny they cancel each other out & you become the ultimate lifeform????? Shadow The FTMhog???????? But also being seen both ways isn't a benefit to other trans ppl, only trans men, who have the Secret Power that makes it okay to hate them. Because we're so supremely fucking incredibly super duper powerful. & if we take off our inhibitor rings we can skate around in our cool shoes & kill Mephiles the Dark. Crazy

+ again what the fuck is female privilege. Is that something from 4chan
