Hi! Intersex person and site admin here to correct you from both the perspectives of lived experience and relevant post-graduate education.
You are wrong. Entirely wrong. You have not said a single correct thing in this entire thread. I will give a single final warning: stop pathologizing. As leftists, we should all know that it’s not acceptable to reduce people to traits like “defective.” It’s even less acceptable to do so when it’s patently untrue.
While there are a few very flashy intersex conditions that can be associated with significant, visible effects like the two trisomy conditions you mentioned, but these are far from the only intersex conditions that exist and the overwhelming majority of intersex people do not experience severe, debilitating conditions like the ones you describe. Limb deformity or pulmonary hypoplasia are far from common amongst people with intersex conditions. In fact, a large percentage of intersex people live entirely normal lives without any unusual medical experiences. They might be born with ambiguous genitalia corrected during infancy and not even find out they’re intersex til adulthood. They might live their entire life and never be aware that they have an intersex condition because there are no visible effects. They have happy, healthy children and live out their normal lives without ever realizing they had an intersex disorder.
Reconsider your viewpoint on this from the ground up immediately.
