Sarah Graham (intersex activist and addiction therapist) joins Nicoletta and Simone to talk about intersex means. You might not have heard the term before, but being intersex is as common as being a redhead! Sarah discusses the problematic nature of infant gender assignment surgery, how it feels to be lied to for years by your doctors and being a part of the coolest lesbian gang in London. Note: At the time of recording, Sarah’s preferred pronouns were she/her/hers. They now use they/them/theirs.
