This is a MAJOR WIN for intersex & trans people in California! The law prohibits health plans & insurers from discriminating against individuals based on sex, including intersex traits. It ensures they cannot be denied coverage for medically necessary healthcare, including gender-affirming care šŸ’œ

Dakota West was told by Kansas to give up her driver's license.

She was born intersex and lived as a girl since childhood. Now, if she wanted to keep driving, she needed a license that said male.

She's suing with the @aclu.org. ā€œI’m just a girl trying to have a life like everybody else.ā€

When intersex young people first look for others—it’s often out of necessity. They want to feel less alone or find support through struggle. At our healing retreat, being intersex isn’t just about the hard times. It's a reminder that being intersex can make your life richer than you’d ever imagine.

Like any other worker, an intersex employee’s talents and contributions should be what counts—not others’ biased beliefs about who ā€˜counts’ as male or female. These forms of sex discrimination will have consequences.

BREAKING: We’ve filed a complaint with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission on behalf of Shepard Scalf, a teacher who was fired without cause because he is intersex. Firing people because of their identity is illegal discrimination, plain and simple.

ā€œI wish people understood that, really, these regulations do target intersex people as well,ā€ said Amelia, an intersex woman who competes in track and field. ā€œI think a lot of times we do get sort of pushed to the side and seen as collateral damage or an unintended consequence of transphobia.ā€

I wrote for @slate.com about the new IOC sex testing policy and the intersex women directly targeted by it
