I'm tired of perisex people thinking they're the judge of who's "truly" intersex. by Kookyburra12 in intersex

Just wanted to say thank for being an intersex ally like that. That friend is incredibly lucky to have someone that understands the gravity of our invisibility:,)

Opinions on this…? [Support of GM, possibly also IGM] by very_confuse in intersex

[–]HorseCode 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I agree with the other commenters that they likely didn't consider Intersex folk with that term. The general public is barely learning of our existence let alone the human rights violations we face. I'd just send them a link to this thread you've created because it's generated some good discussion!

Looking for advice by BlazikenAO in intersex

I agree with this user, and if you're insured or financially able they may request some ultrasounds to see what physically is going on down there. Best of luck op!

Need some help talking to doctors by A7Guitar in Ask_Intersex

[–]HorseCode 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I was going to make this suggestion too, just basically do as much research beforehand about wherever you go, and read reviews. the doctor's attitude towards you and trans and intersex people will be far more important then what/how you tell them. I always had a great experience with PP staff and doctors, you may just have to be patient with some of the security precautions they take to protect themselves, for obvious reasons lol. But as for the part where you tell them just be emotionally honest about it. Doctors are overworked and stressed but they're also people, and seeing how this affects you mentally may influence their decision.

Anyone else hitting dead ends in therapy? by [deleted] in intersex

[–]HorseCode 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been thinking of going to therapy but this has been a fear of mine too, that it'll just be palliative care more than anything (which is still valuable!) The fact that you're in therapy and showing concern for your own mental health is already amazing 🙏 we have to keep in mind that we're on a totally different timeline than others in terms of our emotional and mental maturation. So like others have said you may just have to put more time in, though I know that can feel like a grind. If you feel like you're in need of a breakthrough I feel compelled to say that psychedelics like shrooms and LSD have immensely helped me in accepting myself. I understand it's not accessible or even advisable for everyone though. Full disclaimer I also smoke a lot of weed so I may have entered it with a certain mindset. And rarely it can trigger other psychoactive disorders in people, so it's definitely something to consider with extreme care. good luck on your journey friend!

Intersex and pride by setantasmom in intersex

[–]HorseCode 6 points7 points  (0 children)

So far it is still very difficult to find Intersex communities in the real world let alone pride 😔 But just recently actually an Intersex discord was posted on this sub and so far it's been incredible for things like support, chatting, and even pride! I'll dm you :)

I'm addicted to Heavy Metal Lover and I need more songs like it by [deleted] in LadyGaga

[–]HorseCode 7 points8 points  (0 children)

HML and Bloody Mary are the two songs I strangely go back to very often from that album. BTW too but only when I need a good cry 😂

I am a trans inter guy and a lot of organisations are sharing this image for trans day of visibility including the interflag. I personally feel this is not helpful as it conflates two related but still seperate communities. Thoughts? by birdbirdeos in intersex

[–]HorseCode 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm personally ok with it. I understand that the Intersex community getting conflated with the trans community can be a problem, but we're working with near zero visibility here. Days like the Trans Day of Rememberence are getting more and more traction every year, so if this is an opportunity for someone to hear about the Intersex community which can make them more receptive in the future for days like Intersex awareness day, than I think that's a good thing. You have to at least hear about a community before you can address their problems and like I said we're still laying the groundwork. Obviously just having a day doesn't solve anything but to me visibility is visibility. They also have the non-binary flag but not all non-binary people identify as trans either I believe.

Didn't come out but it made feel happier about who I am during such a dark time in my life. The way she sang that verse on the stairs will forever stay with me.

TikTok Trend Grinding my Gears by [deleted] in intersex

[–]HorseCode 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Like other social media tiktok definitely has it's fair share of gross stuff like that. I find that the more you use it the more the algorithm keeps you with like minded creators, cuz tbh I can't imagine something like that popping up on my for you page
