"This is my body. To be more specific, this is my intersex body.

As an intersex person, my body has carried me through so much trauma and pain. My body has never fit into a box, but those around me have tried their hardest to put it into one through forced medical interventions, coercion, and shame.

Despite their efforts, I love my intersex body.

I love that it allows me to exist between the lines.

I love that it shows me that the world isn't as binary as I previously thought.

I love that it can be my home."
