<a general for intersex people>~•PASTE BIN•~>what is INTERGEN?INTERGEN is a general for intersex people to talk to each other about their experiences or just to hang out>what is an intersex person?Intersex people are those born with any of several sex characteristics, including chromosome patterns, gonads, or genitals that do not fit typical binary notions of male or female bodies>am I intersex?We are not doctors, please seek medical advice, but dont be afraid to ask questions here to maybe understand things better >are trans people intersex?Trans people are not inherently intersex, however an intersex person can transition if they want>how is this /lgbt/?We share similar experiences of discrimination and social prejudice based on sex and gender norms, even though intersex is a variation of sex characteristics, not a gender identity or sexual orientation itself—————————>QOTTWhat do you do for work? Do you enjoy it? Does being intersex or other medical reasons limit or impede what you’d like to do? >QOTT2It’s cold, how do you like to warm up?
>>41518355I’ll start>What do you do for work? I work pressing and cleaning books for collectors and dealers, and also in cosmetic sales>Do you enjoy it? It’s okay and chill, but it can be really boring but that’s because there’s no windows and I’m in a concrete box every day>Does being intersex or other medical reasons limit or impede what you’d like to do?Kinda I have problems with my stomach and using the bathroom, so I need multiple bathroom breaks a day. I also had them provide sterile gloves and wear a mask so I don’t breathe in mold or other gross stuff that’s on the books>It’s cold, how do you like to warm up?cozy clothes, blankets, and warm beverages (I’ve been on a hot cider with a toasted cinnamon stick kick lately)
>>41518355are you the madchan person or a different anon
>>41518612different anon, no trips in the thread
tits and facial hair nightmare gang
>>41518355>What do you do for work? Does being intersex or other medical reasons limit or impede what you’d like to do? I'm a software developer. I live in the shadows. Mostly I wonder if it limited me being hired before. I transitioned to something I can actually reliably pass as and the interview experience suddenly got WAY different, but it's hard to know exactly why.>Do you enjoy it?Sometimes! I I definitely enjoy having the skillset. Your own computer is more yours when you can write code to make it do your bidding.>It’s cold, how do you like to warm up?Me? Warm up? People used to take bets on how cold it'd have to get before I'd wear a coat. I am a human furnace.Plus I don't hang out outside much so I gues artificial heat is how I warm up.
>>41518803>I am a human furnace.I am but only when I sleep, I’ve had past partners tell me it’s like sleeping next to a mixture of a cat and a radiator lol ..: that also says weird things lol
>>41518844My body is always fucking frigid to the touch and it is terrible if my hands or feet touch you in the middle of the night.
>>41518944>no it’s totally fine lol
>>41518844Does that mean you purr?I haven't had a partner in * thinks * 15 years, give or take? So I have no peer feedback.But I know if I ever feel unusually cold it's probably because I haven't eaten enough.
>>41519082I just seem very bad at regulating my body temperature. I don't do well in high temperatures either and will start vomiting or having heart issues.
>>41519082I do purr, I tend to make a lot of cat sounds … it’s fun to be a cat
god i miss being healthy
>>41519207What’s going on anon?
>>41518355>QOTT1I am a mid level engineering plan reviewer for a county. I look at the contracts and plans for all developments that are going in, being improved, or subdivided ranging from single bungalows to large multifamily developments, commercial projects etc. Check to make sure they adhere to local regulations, EPA requirements and so forth. It is a boring job, but it is stable. I ultimately wish I could go out into the field more but it is a desk jokey role. Being intersex does not impact the job, just peoples expectations of how I should be. (it took me years to get moved from a concierge desk...as an engineer... to a hard office. In general when people call my office, they think I am a secretary, and not the person they are trying to reach)>QOTT2Flannel PJ's, a sweat shirt, and some hot tea with honey and whiskey.
>>41518355How many of you are just fat retards who got gyno from antidepressants?
>>41519288Your job sounds kind of amazing ngl, also what type of tea O.O
>>41519360my body was this way since birth, retard
>>41519410The tea depends on the seasons. Sometimes I like a basic earl grey, sometimes fruit teas, and others still herbal ones before bed. Sometimes with honey, sometimes with table sugar, and sometimes with milk...again just depending. I have a local tea farm, but their tea tastes weirdly soapy...so I just go for boxed stuff from the store.
>>41519455>from birthyeah you know you arent intersex lmfao
>>41519489seethe harder, jealous delusional troon
>>41519494Seething about what? Every time Ive talked to an "intersex" person here its a troon who took antidepressants and got gyno from it, and convinced themselves that it totally wasn't the hardcore drug they were ingesting every single day, and instead some sign from god that condones their faggotry. And not to mention the cis women misconflating their normal biological abnormalities to convince themselves theyre an uwu uterusboy
>>41519190Mrow!>>41519115I'm sorry to hear that :(May all your summers be mild and/or adequately air-conditioned.
>>41519520sir i have MRIs of my insides and shityou have issues
>>41519520>normal biological abnormalitieskek
>>41519494Nah this is a chudpost. It just has that aroma.>>41519520Those drugs are hardcore man. I took a Celexa once and it actually went back in time more than a decade and fucked my puberty.
>>41519488>fellow tea connoisseur :)I really like a wide variety, this is my favorite companyhappymugcoffee.com/collections/teaI love their apple cinnamon but all their blends are amazing, I used to go to the facility they had and they would give free samples so you could taste test it
>>41519554I took Zoloft in my 20s it did the same thing except it went all the way back to when I was a fetus and gave me mixed reproductive organs. I don't take psychiatric meds anymore, shit's bad for you.
>>41519527>MRIsAre you under the impression that not every single person can get those??? They want to sell you, your insurance, tests, anon.>>41519538>PCOS MAKES ME INTERSEX(sorry for ai but come on)>>41519554Holy fucking cope. Yes those drugs are hardcore especially when you slowly dose yourself for every single fucking day of your life. Even the fact that you're unable to conceive of how that could affect you in a big way proves how bad faith + in denial you are about it. Just have a real conversation about it dude, not even the pharmaceutical companies who make that would agree with you.
>>41519618you are brain dead
>>41519522Mrrrooow!
>>41519618I'm not on anti-depressants. You're screaming at shadows.
>>41519693Im talking to the fucking people itt that are you dip shit. Statistically, there are not this many intersex people. I used to believe there was until started talking to these people and found out that they will convince themselves that ANYTHING makes them intersex>me being an ectomorph proves i had high estrogen concentration in the womb!!! im intersex!!!!!! or the time this fat retarded bitch genuinely thought pcos made her intersex. Fucking so many coping retards in these intersex threads
>>41519717I mean, I have pais. Being a faggot and now sort of a tranny are most likely unrelated. I am just fucked all around.
>>41519749>paisYeah this too. You ain't intersex.
>>41519717I have… treatment resistant depression
>>41519785I didnt write this
>>41519797that sounds like you're not depressed. you're just an asshole.
>>41519797I genuinely want to fucking kill you. Reading that sentence genuinely made me fucking furious. You are so fucking gullible you deserve to be taken advantage of every fucking second of your life. We dont even know what depression is, if it has a consistent source, what the solutions are for it. Theres no such fucking thing as treatment resistant depression, especially if you're taking a fucking treatment??????????? Holy fuck you people deserve your fat/chemically induced depression/bloated acne faced lives
>>41519717Based on writing style and such I get the impression that there are maybe 3-5 regular posters in these who aren't Powers-brained tourists or chuds coming to derail. I've thought about making a trip just so I don't accidentally look like multiple people but trips made someone (you?) mad so I won't. Or if I do I'll keep it out of here.But if I did and if you felt the need you could piece together my story reliably and decide for yourself if it's a LARP or not.>>41519785OK Biden
>>41519831NTA but this reminds me of when I post in trans threads and people accuse me of being a hon. Like they can see me through their screens.Screaming at shadows, man.
>>41519685I didn't make this but here have some cube art from a previous job.
>>41519837I believe there are intersex people and there are some here. Im saying that this tranny board, full of people trying to convince thmselves that god has a secret little plan for them that he subtly makes known to them by making them short faggots, are all larping retards. They come to here, to lie about GENUINE MEDICAL SYMPTOMS to convince themselves that they actually were "never even a boy to begin with because my penis is so tiny and my body type is short teeheee~~~~~~~~"
>>41519831> Theres no such fucking thing as treatment resistant depression, especially if you're taking a fucking treatment???????????Im sorry Dr anon I can’t believe I trusted doctors and psychiatrists over your scientific position, I’m no longer depressed
>>41519891>god has a secret little plan for themMy oldest sister literally encouraged me to see my body as an apology from God for making a mistake when He made me and I hate that interpretation so much. So, so much.I know she means well and is just ignorant but it makes me want to scream.>body type is shortI do and don't want to ask what you mean by this specifically.
>>41519894>Nigger thinks I'm saying its not a real diagnosis Damn dude those pills fucked up your brain already. You realize that doctors recant their diagnosis all the fucking time, right? Are you this attached to what 1 doctors opinion on YOUR problems are?
>>41518355being trans is a form of neurological intersex
This whole thread is full of the same attention seeking niggers who feel like they have to go "OH MY GOD IM GONNA FUCKING HANG MYSELF IF I CANT GET MY PENIS CUT OFF" just to PROVE how SERIOUS they are!!!! Niggerishly retarded, self-centered autists. All of you. The rest of society genuinely despises you people>>41520005I am talking to you specifically. This whole conversation you've used as an opportunity to pronounce just how *SPECIAL* you are. Fucking rapist.
>>41520081>>41519891get helpyou are a seething delusional faggot screaming at walls about boogeymen that aren't even in the room
>>41520076the brain is not a sex organ. learn what sex organs are, retard.
>>41520081You don't even know who you're yelling at anymore.>>41520076Thinking this is weird transmedicalist bullshit and nobody cares how valid you are but you.
>>41520136>validhas nothing to do with it
>>41520121>>41520136Man fuck you both. Im genuinely having an open conversation with you fucking niggers. I would untrip just to actually have a good faith conversation but you two are in such fucking denial. Worthless scum fucks
>>41520208seethe harder, narcissistic loser
>>41520214This means nothing to me. You are fucking up your body, mind and health, refusing to actual learn about what youre talking about or listen what doctors and psychiatrists tell you, and then acting smug about it. This was supposed to be just for you babe.
>>41520234You are psychotic lmao. I have doctors, MRI images, endless tests, and decades of living in my body. The only thing I'm refusing to listen to is you, because you are seething little troon bitch.
>>41519520This is exactly like when people tell me they have tourettes. Except they only got it when they were 18. And they started taking Adderall when they were 17.Its like, okay you dont have tourettes, you have a drug problem.
>>41520249>have doctors, MRI images, endless testYour sense of logic is very poor.
>>41520263I have been this way my whole life. Nothing I did later in life gave me a combo of male and female internal sex organs--that is not possible. You people are retarded and probably weird bitter jealous troons.
>>41520277>Noooo you can't have medical proof of your bodily existence, it makes me feel inferior!!! Nooo!!! I'll call you dumb but in pseudointellectual speak!!!!fucking moron.
>>41520249>>41520279Cope and deflect
>>41520298>YOURE NOT ACTUALLY INTERSEX, YOURE SOME SELF-DIAGNOSED TRANNY >yes i am i have medical documentation of this >UHM COPE AND DEFLECTyou are legitimately braindead.
>>41520208You don't know me or my medical history, which is why you keep taking stabs in the dark at it. Next you'll blame anti-psychotics or the COVID vaccine.>>41520277Are you prepared to demonstrate that current events can cause past events? Because that's what you're claiming over and over again.I don't think that's been disproven so I'm willing to hear you out.
>>41520305Did you even listen to those fucking doctors when you got those tests?? Evidently fucking not
>>41520319>Are you prepared to demonstrate that current events can cause past events? Because that's what you're claiming over and over again.>I don't think that's been disproven so I'm willing to hear you out.What? Im saying that Doctors and tests are all extremely fallable and they dont claim to be otherwise >Insert logical fallacies here
>>41520325Yes. I have had many tests across many years and continue to see doctors to this day. You live in dysphoria fueled delusions where the existence of intersex people triggers you, so you need to erase us to feel valid.
>>41520339There are VISIBLE ORGANS on images, retard.
>>41520149Valid has everything to do with it. You come in two flavors:Some of you need tangible justification for your transition because you can't accept yourselves. For some a psychological diagnosis is enough. They unironically run around talking about their Benjamin type, or saying they have Harry Benjamin Syndrome, a Very Real diagnosis used by Serious PhD Psychologists in Present Year.But for some of you that's not enough. Some of you need a demonstrable medical sign, and for those people an intersex diagnosis would be ideal. But odds are you'll never get one (frankly even if you do have a condition sometimes--it's not like the genetic tests are any good unless you have something obvious like a large degree of mixed chromosomes or unusual chromosomes). But Dr. Powers has got you there. He can tell you're valid and he's gonna prove it. Nevermind that we're something like 50:50--maybe even worse--on confirming PAIS by genetic test given visibly different anatomy at birth.The other flavor is people who think a better argument for transsexuality will stop the enormous political backlash against transsexuals. Especially if your category excludes all the weird freaks, which of course you, dear sir or madam, can demonstrate that you're not.Both of them are full of shit.>>41520339>Im saying that Doctors and tests are all extremely fallableOh yeah that I know. But how often do they incorrectly diagnose someone with an intersex condition? Got any data on that?
>>41520399>projectionnope
>>41520059Of course!
>>41520409Nah I've lurked in your spaces. Truly deranged shit.Gatekeep me daddy! I'll do 2 years of RLE before I get a pathetic hondose and 400mg spiro, daddy! Anything for you daddy!The only way forward is liberation.
>>41520475>your spacesholy schizo
Well now that the dust has settled and civility can return, I have an announcement my socks have cats, believe it fellow intersex anons! It’s freezing here, o-o
>>41520535Awww!I see your kitty socks and raise you live action kitty!
>>41520558Pulling out the big guns I see, time to pull out computer cat!
>>41520579Gahhh it’s not letting me select the pic to add more cats
>>41520638Nooooo I'm sorry! :(I've had weird issues with uploads sometimes.Here, have this... chicken?
>>41520688:3 (if I could upload it would have been a surprised cat with an exclamation above its head)
i get to carve pumpkins with my bf tonight :3
>>41518355>qottnothing stable atm, I'm studying. Medical reasons limit and impede me, difficult to say what is related to the decreased blood circulation to my ovaries and what isn't though. pissing blood suckssss. i need to go get checked again soon :/ >qott2layering up and drinking hot cocoa!>>41519837nta but I think 3-5 non-trip regulars plus minus a few non-commital losers like me who only posts once or twice per thread sounds about right>>41520535aw man mine are in the laundry pile at the moment so i cant contribute, but yours are cute
>>41520535I don't have socks with cats, but I have a cat with socks.
>>41520876Congrats! The squirrels at my pumpkin this year :,)>>41520897It’s okay anon, but be ready tomorrow will be spooky cats!>>41520926What a cutie pie!!!
>>41521012She's adorable, as will all our critters!
>>41518355>~•PASTE BIN•~erm
>>41521065Yes anon I’m slow, and messed up on that, I’ll make sure next time for you it’s fixed >>41521047She looks soo comfy in there!!
how do i actually get tested for an intersex condition if i have genuine reason to believe i may have had one not noticed at birth
>>41521198My advice, talk to your pcp first, make an appointment with an endocrinologist and get your medical records together. It’s really expensive if you don’t have insurance (don’t be stupid like me)
>>41520926>>41521047Hey let's be black and white cat friends!
>>41521198you probably don't, especially if you're trans and asking this later in life but on the off chance its not just tranny brain rot, tell a doctor your "genuine reason" instead of 4chan. they will probably do hormone tests and/or refer you to an endocrinologist.
>>41521198there is no such thing as "an intersex condition" the medical system does not use the term intersex. it used hermaphrodite until 2006, then the DSD category was made and anything categorized under the hermaphrodite category was moved into the DSD category alongside many more conditions that had never been under the hermaphrodite labels. intersex originated as a community/activism term and was popularized in the 90s by people who had a "hermaphrodite" diagnosis. hermaphrodite is not 1:1 with DSDand intersex is not a medical term; there is no "intersex condition" category the original hermaphrodite and pseudo hermaphrodite categorization from which intersex arose primarily applied to those with ambiguous genitals or incongruent internal and external reproductive organs--as in, some possession of both sex organ development/persistence.
>>41521460Thanks Dr anon could you tell Cleveland clinic to update their website again, I think those knuckleheads messed up didn’t bother asking you first
>>41521512Yes, that does describe intersex people. But as I said, there are no "intersex conditions". The conditions are categorized in as DSDs, but not all DSDs result in an intersex person. Notice those are all social terms. "Intersex people", "people who are intersex". It does not describe a medical condition; it describes a type of person. It is not a medical term.
>>41521512>being intersex isn't a disorder, disease, or conditionit's literally right in front of you, retard
>>41521411>>41521460Except for the "go to a doctor" advice that was already covered better above these replies were more disruptive than anything.The vibes were good and we were chilling and getting along and then this shit again.
>>41521560>waaaa you won't let people regurgitate the same misinformation and improper word usage despite how important it is to our rights and preventing societal understanding waaaa
>>41521579I mean clearly someone's gotta be a huge diction around here
>>41521560I agree! And so does my fren
>>41521608>explaining important differences of words and history is disruptive and ruined my catpostingthis is why no one knows jackshit about us or our bodies
