i guess i gave them a more charitable framing of their comment like: “there are many possible states of being intersex; individuals of all sexes can find themselves anywhere on the gender spectrum regardless of sex”
without hearing what they meant, both your framing and mine are valid given such a short comment i just didn’t immediately see yours at first. cheers 🥂
For what it’s worth thanks for giving me the benefit of the doubt. Given that this whole post is about trans folks I think sex, sexuality, and gender are all applicable topics (with gender spectrum focal when talking about trans). I do understand the difference. To defend the person who wants clarification, perhaps I could have framed it better but it’s correct, was meant as a short summation and I’ll leave it as is change it to “and gender spectrum” I guess. What is meant is pretty apparent to anyone who reads the article or looks at the expanded graphic - which addresses concepts of sex, sexuality, and gender and explicitly uses the term “gender spectrum” when talking about trans choices/identity.
no problem! language is the key thing that trans people need to understand and represent themselves and so any and all discussion towards modeling language to support that need is a positive :)
