I am a SEAHORSE Dad

For fun, I compare myself to a seahorse dad.  For it is the seahorse dads who give birth.   Yes, I am a gestational father, a term I got from my intersex friend.  I am an intersex person, who identifies as being a man and gender nonconforming because my body is not male.  My body… Continue reading I am a SEAHORSE Dad

Where is A Safe Place?

Written October 2015 I was born an intersex person.  I was declared female at birth.  I am now 10 months, and 2 weeks into reclaiming my true gender male.  Although I also identify as being a non-binary male.  I started my transition to my true gender at forty-six years old.  I remain with my dedicated… Continue reading Where is A Safe Place?

Very few conditions of intersex cause disease and need medical attention.  Being born with intersex traits is truly no different than being born with red hair, or green eyes.  It is simply unique and rare. Abnormal is used in describing a… Continue reading My Body is Not Abnormal. Please Don’t Call Me Broken.

Intersex Children: Waiting to Decide on Sex Surgery

This documentary, from ABC news, is about a person born with both male and female genitals and their meeting with the surgeon who operated on him as a baby. This surgeon sadly shows little regret for the error made in assigning gender wrong.  Children born with both genitals used to be called hermaphrodites, now they're… Continue reading Intersex Children: Waiting to Decide on Sex Surgery
