  • Roshaante Andersen was born intersex.
    Intersex is a general term used for a variety of conditions in which a person is born with a reproductive or sexual anatomy that doesn't seem to fit the typical definitions of female or male.
    Roshaante was born with a vagina and internal testicles. He did not find out he was intersex until he was 11 years old.
    In this interview he takes us through growing up as intersex, why he chose to live as a man, and what sex feels like with both genders.

    If I had ever met you and you'd told me this, what I would have wanted to know from you, would have been, so who are you inside? Our genitals don't define who we are, so forgetting what's between your legs, who are you? That's the most important part of you. Working out who you were growing up, must have been so tough, and you seem to have a wonderful mother who has given you the foundation to be happy to just be you, whoever that is!

Doesn't excuse their behavior but in the same breath I really feel if ur different in a kind of way that strangers are going to bother u about it, then u should have something quick lined up to say. Stick and move. I am extremely heavy chested and have been that way since the age of 12. I had to learn how to stick and move. No woman in my family could explain to me where these things came from, I went through lonely nights but when it came to strangers... Just like him u put it in ya mind like if ur asking these stupid questions then ur stupid. But it doesn't mean I have to show u what I'm thinking. The LGBQT community gotta learn the world is still learning.

      He said "I get more respect as a Man than I did as a girl.
      This can be 100% taken from his experience just by listening to his story. He lived the first part of his life as a female in which NO ONE saw him as a female and questioned it all the time. An experience no normal looking woman would go through unless she had a genealogical issue or was 7 levels of ugly.
