Non-binary is a gender. "Intersex" means "my sexual characteristics are not as easily slotted into male and female as you'd think."</p><p>Some intersex people are non-binary. Some use "intersex" as their gender label. Some are cis. Some are binary trans. Intersex people can have any gender you can think of frankly they're people just like you.</p><p>Intersex people are not "assigned non-binary at birth." They're assigned a binary sex like everyone else. Hence why there can be cis or trans intersex people.</p><p>While I'm certain the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/human" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>human</span></a> experience is vast enough that there must be someone out there with a working dick and pussy at once, the large majority of intersex people do not have that sort of body. </p><p>:antifa_100:</p>
