To our President and all his sychophants who willingly erase the humanity of #lgbtq, #trans, #queer, #intersex, and other marginalized Americans, we say: HANDS OFF OUR HISTORY!!! #HandsOff #HandsOffHistory #GoodTrouble
Thanks to everyone who showed up at the Pioneer Courthouse Square to speak and support Intact Global announcing the Hadachek v. Oregon challenge that fights to expand genital autonomy rights to all children including boys, men, and intersex children.
Special thanks to the person who dedicated their 1 year AA chip to me and our fight for the rights of all children including trans intersex and gender diverse children. It brought a tear to my eye and once again.writing this. Heartfelt often private thank yous push me to continue fighting for the end of non consensual circumcision.

# Hadachek v. Oregon Intact Global 2025 Press Conference
Please let me know if you find more news coverage on this. We at the Genital Autonomy Collective spoke about intersectionality at the Intact Global 2025 press conference and hopefully some of the news will also mention that. The Hadacheck v. Oregon case will expand opportunities for trans, intersex, and gender diverse people in ways that more people need to be aware of. Circumcision impacts gender affirming surgery options, and impacts our freedom as well, and we're fighting with the broader genital autonomy movement for our shared rights.
An excerpt from my speech:
"Genital cutting is often talked about in the categories of male, female, and intersex, but those categories are not distinct in reality. People inherently defy those arbitrary boundaries. Because of this, many of the children assigned male at birth and subjected to penile circumcision, or other childhood genital cutting, are transgender, intersex, and otherwise gender-diverse
... Circumcision, by removing genital tissue and creating scars, physically limits options for adults seeking genital surgery. This stands in the way of our freedom to make the choice for ourselves as adults just like it does for boys and men. We are working with the intactivist movement for our shared freedom." https://www.youtube.com/live/S4-Cva6dVu4?si=uO4-J9OzUMfypDZD&t=5127
With attention and advocacy opportunities the challenge is bringing, The Genital Autonomy Collective is in need of more volunteers to help. Please message me if you're interested in supporting intersectional genital autonomy for all children in Oregon. While we welcome help of all kinds, we specifically need help with: Graphic design, web design, contacts with press, fundraising, social media management, writing, non profit experience, academic research opportunities, tabling events, etc.
Intact Global is also looking for Intersex plaintiffs who have experienced Intersex related genital cutting in Oregon at any date to add to the Equal Protection Challenge against forced, non-religious genital mutilation. As well as trans plaintiffs who have experienced penile circumcision in Oregon to add to the legal challenge.
Please email me at Allie@autonomycollective.org if you'd like to come forward as a plaintiff or are interested in volunteering. If you're in need of support on violated genital autonomy or would like to help advocate you can join a group at our website: https://autonomycollective.org/groups.html

Interpłciowość. Czym jest? Jak się z nią żyje w dzisiejszych czasach? Co jest krzywdzące dla osób interpłciowych? Czy interpłciowość występuje w naturze? Czy to to samo, co niebinarność?
Interpłciowość (ang. intersex) - termin określający naturalną różnorodność w budowie ciała. Nie można ich jednoznacznie określić jako kobiece lub męskie. Oznacza to, że część narządów osób interpłciowych jest żeńska, a część męska lub też ich narządy nie są ani męskie, ani żeńskie.
Interpłciowość niestety nie jest klasyfikowana jako płeć, co oznacza, że rodzice przy urodzeniu wybierają płeć, jaką wpiszą dziecku w dokumentacji. Może być to dysforyczne dla osób interpłciowych, ponieważ mogą one nie czuć się związane z płcią przypisaną im przy urodzeniu.
Jeszcze bardziej krzywdzący może być proces determinacji płci. O ile coraz łatwiej jest zmienić oznaczenia płci w dokumentach, o tyle fizyczna zmiana płci wiąże się w wielu krajach z dużym wydatkiem i nie każdy może sobie na to pozwolić. Dysforia jest w takiej sytuacji jeszcze większym zagrożeniem.
Nazywanie osób interpłciowych “hermafrodytami”, “eunuchami”, “obojniakami” a co gorsza “transwestytami” jest bardzo stygmatyzujące. Podobnie nazywanie interpłciowości zaburzeniem rozwoju płci. Dyskryminacja na różnych płaszczyznach może przyczynić się do zaburzeń lękowych czy też depresji.
Jeśli uważasz, że interpłciowość nie występuje w naturze, to mam dla Ciebie ciekawostkę:
* niektóre interpłciowe zwierzęta: brzuchorzęski, nicienie, małże słodkowodne i morskie, pijawki, dżdżownice, tasiemce, ślimaki lądowe, ostrygi, krewetki, hiena cętkowana;
* niektóre interpłciowe rośliny: sosny, świerki, dęby, buki,
brzozy, pszenica, jęczmień, niektóre gatunki fiołków.

So, I wanted to highlight this quote from #TransAthlete #ChrisMosier [which I totally identify with]:
"An increased scrutiny on athletes' bodies creates serious harm to all women and girls who are perceived as 'more masculine' due to being #queer, #intersex, or otherwise out of alignment with narrow, white-centric norms of femininity."
Or those of us with higher androgen levels naturally!
#CaitlynJenner issues surprising statement after #Trump signs executive order affecting #TransAthletes
The former Olympian has left some of her X followers feeling 'confused'
One follower wrote: "Legitimate question - as a trans woman, are you cool with them just slowly erasing trans people, their rights, and everything they’ve worked towards?"
Rhianna Benson, February 16, 2025
"According to Reuters, enforcing his ban 'may be difficult' for Trump 'to enforce', being that his current options 'range from looking at birth certificates, which can be altered, to inspecting the bodies of children, an alternative that most would find unpalatable at best'.
"Transgender athlete Chris Mosier, who also spoke to the publication, has since responded: 'Anti-trans school sports bans are difficult to enforce because they rely on #SexTesting and #BodyPolicing for implementation and enforcement.
"'An increased scrutiny on athletes' bodies creates serious harm to all women and girls who are perceived as 'more masculine' due to being #queer, #intersex, or otherwise out of alignment with narrow, white-centric norms of femininity.'" [Or those of us with higher androgen levels naturally! ]

Lawyers say Oregon genital cutting law discriminates against boys; seek circumcision ban
Zane Sparling for Oregonian/Oregon Live
"The plaintiffs ask the court to declare current Oregon laws banning only female genital cutting a violation of the state constitution’s Equal Rights Amendment and Equal Protection Clause. They say the court must either ban it for children of any gender or overturn the statute entirely."
Also Daffy Duck is now canonically trans and/or intersex. He lays eggs while still identifying as male and explicitly comments on how hard it is to lay eggs as a male duck.
Eine absolut großartige TV-Sendung von 1989 aus den USA. Interessant vor allem wegen "Toby", inzwischen besser bekannt mit dem echten Namen als Jim Sinclair.
Sinclair ist intergeschlechtlich und erklärt nichtbinär - "I remain openly and proudly neuter, both physically and socially" Quelle. Ausserdem autistisch und in dieser Richtung seit den 1990ern ganz besonders aktivistisch unterwegs. Das kommt in der Sendung noch nicht so raus. Etwas deutlicher wird, dass Sinclair auch asexuell ist.
Ich bin absolut beeindruckt, wie klar und schlagfertig Sinclair alles beantwortet. Auch die Nachfragen dieses Psychiaters, der hartnäckig wissen will, wie Sinclairs Chromosomen sind. Sinclair: "Wenn ich ohne Augen geboren worden wäre und Sie mir sagen, 'ja wenn du welche hättest, dann wären sie grün', welchen Unterschied würde das machen".
Fünf kurze Teile, alles englisch, ich hab es sehr gefeiert. So weit war es schon mal 1989. Leider leider sähe das heute immer noch nicht viel anders aus.

Es gibt noch mehr von Sinclair zu Intergeschlechtlichkeit, zu Sexualität und warum das irgendwie ganz schon seltsam ist
Does anyone have any #intersex educators they recommend?
I am some cishet people's only source of queer/trans education and I want to add some external resources for intersex education by the actual community.
The clinic is letting me pay at a later date! Still in need of $160 to cover it all. Meds are taken care of for the time being, this will cover the rest of the appointment. Please help, I need to be able to continue treatment to stay alive and healthy and be able to work on my game.
