Content Notice: References to intersex surgeries and other anti-intersex violence. End of Content Notice. Image Text: Intersex Experiences in the United States [by] Tena Gordon (tagged as @reformistrevolutionaryrose) [of] Eastern Florida State College. Word count=1,747. End of Image Text. Part 7: Models and Theories The intrinsic inclination model frames sex, gender identity, gender expression, and sexual orientation as distinct traits that are largely immutable (Serano 2016:99). According to this model, intersex people’s identities are beyond social influences. Proponents of the intrinsic inclination model reject biomedical and surgical interventions, as they are not believed to determine or change an intersex person’s sex (Lugones 2000; Rosario 2011; Rubin 2012). However, the aforementioned model does not consider how society shapes whether someone identifies or even is knowledgeable about being intersex. In contrast, social control theory acknowledges the medicalization and other state violence against intersex people’s bodies. The sex binary is so deeply held by Western society that it is physically and socially forced upon intersex people. Intersex genital mutilation, other non-consensual surgeries, and gendered athletic exclusion act as negative sanctions against perceived deviance. Those who conform to the sex binary are positively sanctioned through government and other agencies recognizing their identity. End of Part 7.

Los Angeles! The US premiere of my documentary film, The Son I Never Had, screens TODAY at @outfest 11:30 AM at the Directors Guild of America (7920 W Sunset Blvd.) It's screening as part of 'Queerer Than Fiction' series. I'm really beside myself that my film, which started as a writing project, that then turned into a radio piece, which then turned into a storytelling project, which is now the #intersex short documentary that it is today, was selected for such an amazing film festival. I really was not good at promoting this, but if you're in LA, and can come, I'll see you there! Thank you so much to the Women's and Gender Studies Department at @depaulu who encouraged me to do creative thesis project for my master's thesis (especially my committee Francesco Royster, Beth Catlett, and Elissa Foster). Also, shoutout to Gary Novak in DePaul's DePaul's then Digital Cinema program for taking our undergrad class to see the documentary Tarnation at The Music Box theatre and changing my life. Your classes and showing us thst beautiful film made was the seed for this project was possible. I hope that with this film, people around the world can see why we need to #stopIGM (intersex genital mutilation). I love my intersex body and community, and this is for both. (P.s I hope to release this film next fall for intersex awareness day!) . . . . . #lgbtqia #lgbt #lgbtq #lgbtq🌈 #queer #film #outfest2017 #outfest #queererthanfiction #TheSonINeverHadFilm #sonineverhad #nonbinary #genderqueer #thefutureisgenderless #toocutetobebinary (at Directors Guild of America)

Just heard of an intersex baby born with tryphalia. This is the first recorded case in humans and the scientist in me was excited for exactly three seconds before my fear was confirmed - they've already been mutilated, with their family's consent.
Anyway donate to StopIGM. They're an international organization dedicated to reporting IGM perpetrator states to the UN and fighting for intersex infant rights.
