I wrote this term paper for my Critical Race Theory Class, which I took this summer, 2024, at Meadville Lombard Theological School while working on my Master of Divinity. My professor was Dr. Barbara Fears, a Black woman from Howard University School of Divinity, an accomplished religious educator, Chaplain, Scholar, and Professor. I proudly received… Continue reading Black, Indigenous, People of Color (BIPOC) and Intersex People: How the Invention of Two Binary Systems Do Harm
Created by Mx. Anunnaki Ray Marquez Shared on Facebook January 9, 20201: All humans can be assigned wrong at birth. I saw another version of this floating around and took the liberty to make it more gender diverse and intersex friendly.Not all people assigned wrong at birth are transgender. Not all people assigned wrong at… Continue reading Human Sexuality is Diverse & Greater Than the Binary
The way I see, and many other intersex born people see it: Intersex is not a term that should not be adopted by people who “feel” like they are intersex, but have endosex (non-intersex) bodies. I also feel that "intersex" can not accurately describe as an intersex person's gender identity, due to sex and… Continue reading “Intersex” can not be an Endosex Person’s Gender Identity.
Here is a sample that might work in respecting everyone when filling out forms for hospitals, doctors, mental health, or councilors. This would be a huge relief to me if I showed up at an emergency room and was given this instead of some conflated two options "male" or "female" that would not be accurate:… Continue reading My idea: How medical forms could respect everyone.
Here is my blog in response to lots of people assuming that my gender identity would be "Gender Neutral" due to being born intersex. This assumption is profound and not accurate for so many of us born anatomically intersex. A "Gender Neutral" birth certificate is good only for people whose gender identity is gender… Continue reading My Anatomical Intersex Body Does Not Create My Gender Identity
Four years ago today I emancipated my true gender identity to nonconforming gay androgynous man. As of December 19th, I am officially FOUR years old. Four years old, you say? How can that be? Well, in the transgender community we often count our birthday from the date we started our transition against our… Continue reading How I became pronoun fluid at four years old.
By Jim Costich December 2018 Being gay is not just a sexual orientation. It's a gender. Or rather there are different genders of gay. This surprised a friend of mine who is a tad new to gay culture. He didn't realize that among gay men gendered pronouns change in mid-sentence such as: "We had the worst… Continue reading Gender, Sex and Orientation Over(your)lap
The World Population as of May 2018 is 7.6 Billion (7,600,000,000) People. Most all of us are assigned at birth our gender identity and it is based on ONE thing, our genitals. This blog is to show you an estimated number of intersex people and transgender people who are being hurt by the practice of… Continue reading How Many People Are Assigned Wrong At Birth?
I WISH THIS WORLD WOULD STOP EQUATING GENITALS and Body Parts to GENDER. I believe it is harming intersex children, gender non-conforming people and those transgender people who want genital integrity and the genitals they were born with. NOTE: Biological Sex is of or relating to the physical, whereas gender is of or relating… Continue reading STOP! Surgery Does Not Create an Intersex Baby’s Gender
This is well done. I appreciate Hollie Howitt in their effort to change society to stop equating that our genitals equal gender. Hollie uses adult language, while also using controversial words for vagina and penis, she makes a very good point about the human right to orgasm. Plus, they elaborate on how the male… Continue reading Genitals Do Not Equal Gender
