Intersex and Transgender


Intersex can also be contrasted with transgender, which describes the
condition in which one's gender identity does not match one's assigned sex. Some
people are both intersex and transgender. A 2012 clinical review paper found that
between 8.5% and 20% of people with intersex variations experienced gender
dysphoria.
Non-binary gender
Recognition of third sex or gender classifications occurs in several countries.
Sociological research in Australia, a country with a third 'X' sex classification, shows

that 19% of people born with typical sex characteristics selected an "X" or "other"
option, while 52% are women, 23% men, and 6% unsure.

LGBT and LGBTI


The relationship of intersex to lesbian, gay, bisexual and trans, and queer
community is complex, but intersex people are often added to LGBT to create an
LGBTI community. A 2019 background note by the Office of the Moduleed Nations
High Commissioner for Human Rights has stated that intersex persons are a distinct
population with concerns about "representation, misrepresentation and resourcing",
but who share "common concerns" with LGBT people "due to shared experiences of
harm arising from dominant societal sex and gender norms". The paper identifies
both how intersex people can suffer human rights violations "before they are able to
develop or freely express and identity" and how "stereotypes, fear and stigmatization
of LGBT people provide rationales for forced and coercive medical interventions on
children with intersex variations".

LGBT+, is an initialism that stands for lesbian, gay, bisexual, and


transgender, and others. The initialism has become a mainstream as a self
designation; it has been adopted by the majority of sexuality and gender identity
based community centers and media in the United States, as well as many other
countries.

Another variant is LGBTQIA, which is used, for example, by the "Lesbian,


Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, Intersex, Asexual Resource Center" at the
University of California, Davis.
The Moduleed States National Institutes of Health (NIH) have framed LGBT,
others "whose sexual orientation and/or gender identity varies, those who may not
self-identify as LGBT" and also intersex populations (as persons withdisorders of sex
development) as "sexual and gender minority" (SGM) populations. This has led to
the development of an NIH SGM Health Research Strategic Plan.
