THANK YOU to the person who confirmed periods hurt a lot more than getting kicked in the balls.
Yipee
My biology teacher(I graduated this year,fortunately)doesn't know what intersex is. When one of my classmates asked if it's possible for a human to be born as somewhat different from strictly male or female my teacher just went like : " Nope. The human sex is way to complicated system so it's always one or the other, no third option,we're not WoRmS". She just doesn't realise that to be outside of binary sex characteristics you don't have to be able to impregnant and be pregnant at the same time - that is something that really doesn't exist among humans as far as I'm aware but if I'm wrong here then don't be afraid to correct me^^ Well,my country is pretty lgbtq+phobic(I used this word to indicate that any forms of lgbtq+ related phobias co-exist here) so no wonder that biology teacher is so uneducated about biology :P
Did that teacher really get a degree in biology 🤔
@@ellabella001 Well,she said she did. At the very least,she got hired for this job. Guess some people prefer to stay ignorant due to their own beliefs. Or maybe she really didn't know somehow 🤷
@@adalunar1550 Maybe the education system for educators isn't very bad. I also didn't ever learn about it besides chromosomes once, but still
Somebody skipped genetics.... I have a bio minor, so she's correct that sex determination in humans IS complicated, which is precisely why sometimes things don't go exactly as planned. Rule number one of bio: the rules will be broken at some point
@@Cloudy4Days Funny thing is that she actually loves genetics 😐
An intersex fact I will always remember forever is the fact that intersex people are as common as redheads :)
Edit: I typed this BEFORE 7:46, I didn't know this fact was going to be here lol
Yes haha your intuition 😯
I'm a redhead, and my best friend is intersex :D
Hi I'm a redhead
The reason they are as common as readheads is because of NCAH/hormone differences, the amount of people who have ambiguous is wayyyy less than that. But me personally I believe hormone differences are still intersex!
@@doodoofardass I wish there was more debate about it.
What hormone differences are considered intersex? Must it be something that causes visible changes or if there's only minor ones that would be intersex too? For example, I have PCOS, my levels of testosterone are a just a bit higher than the average, not enough for the androgynous apparence that I want. It just gives me extra body hair and makes my period not monthly.
I think about conditions that may happen once in a while, someone may ocasionally have higher/lower level of testosterone or estrogen for what is normal for them, but the hormones go back to what they generally are. In my opinion, that would not be intersex because it's not permanent, but I'm just a person who likes to study LGBTQIA+ stuff, not a doctor
im intersex, and i didn't know until i was 7 so this video is very nice.
I'm glad you liked the video!
I didn't know till I was 17, so don't worry your not late to the party. (I was)
That is very impressive 😁my childhood sweetheart my wife found she was an intersex chimera when she was 4, but around 6 in a half was when she learned more about it. I forget which year it was idk if it was 2007-8 when I had to be around 6-7 years old, and she had to be 11-12 years old, but when my bae told me her intersex condition. From this day, it still fascinates me, and I had also met some intersex people which it is very cool :)
Thanks for making these! My partner is intersex and makes content about it on tiktok, I'm gonna send this to them to help them find others like them!
No problem! Happy pride to you both ❤
if you don't mind, could you drop their @? I'd love to see some of their content!
@@westleykim9161 @_irl_angel_dust_ unfortunately they wont be active for a while, but their already posted content is great
@@aspen9273 Thanks so much!
Are they actually intersex or do they just identify as intersex
I am a demigirl who uses any pronouns, but nobody really seems to respect that and uses purely she/her bc i am very fem presenting. I am not intersex, but hearing that person use all pronouns for than intersex cockroach made me feel really valid for some reason 🥰
Yeah I also liked the video of the cockroach (which is why I included it).
Not intersex, but my BFF is! This helped me learn more stuff about the intersex community and how I can better support my friend!
TYSM!!! 🤗🤗🤗
You're a great friend! Happy pride to you both
All I can smell is validness
All I see is facts
@@phoebeats yes
My sibling’s intersex, and I’ve been searching for more ways to understand them and represent them correctly in the different stories I write. This has been really helpful!!
I think we all learned something today
Thats great :)
When that girl mentioned that orchids are used in the intersex community to represent people with androgen insensitivity syndrome, for some reason that made me really happy. I'm a writer, and I have a character who's they/them genderfluid with CAIS, and so I guess seeing that yeah, there are people out there with this thing that I gave my character, made me really happy.
I have known about intersex people for a long time, but I had an insatiable curiosity for biology so that's the main reason really. If you're incredibly interested in a subject, then, with the help of the internet, you end up learning a lot about it.
Intersex is a wide and wonderful spectrum. Whether it's a gonadal, genital-related, chemical/hormonal or chromosomal variation, or any other variation, you are valid and you deserve love, and you deserve freedom and bodily autonomy. The cruelest thing anyone can do is strip these rights from you just to make you fit into a box, and you don't deserve that.
Stay safe and happy, everyone. I love y'all
I have more than a strong suspicion that I’m intersex (likely chromosomally) but can’t afford a karyotype test. I went through two distinct puberties as a teen: first a pretty average female puberty (I was assigned female at birth) then around age 17 I stopped having regular periods, my voice got deeper (I went from an alto to a tenor in one year) and I started growing facial hair. I don’t know anything for certain and have more pressing health issues than what chromosomes I have. So, for now I live as non-binary (MAYBE intersex?) and try to be happy with that.
that must suck, not being able to know for sure because of money :/ wish you the best!!
@@evi6784 Thank you! Maybe someday I can afford the test. I just want to know. In my heart of hearts I feel it’s true, but who knows?
@@RianLyonsI hope you can someday! If not, your intuition is something to be trusted i'd say. Happy pride anyways!
@@evi6784 Happy Pride to you, too! 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️
Sounds like it could also be NCAH or PCOS, you should go check out the symptoms of those conditions too
Intersex person here! I feel like I hardly see any intersex related videos but, maybe im just looking in the wrong place. I recently found out I was intersex and its nice seeing this kind of stuff, I genuinely feel validated 💕
im also intersex!
I am as well!
6:13 if you’re in a survival situation and you happen to be surrounded by ice or snow, most likely you’re in a very cold environment with no shelter. In this case, one of your biggest priorities is to stay warm. If you’re thirsty and you try to eat raw snow or suck on ice, you’re taking in cold substances, lowering your body’s core temperature. This is no bueno, as you are already in danger of freezing to death. Your best bet, if you can’t light a tree on fire, is to try and find someplace you can create an enclosed shelter, someplace small so your body can work to heat up the small space. Then you can work on warming up some snow or ice to consume so you don’t die of dehydration.
Alternatively, if you’re in a survival situation in a hot environment, you’re going to want to eat ice if you have it, because in that case, you want to cool down your core temperature so you don’t die of heat exhaustion.
Something else I’ve heard before is that the amount of energy it takes your body to melt the ice will actually use more water than you’ll absorb by eating it, so it can actually dehydrate you more than if you were to eat/drink nothing at all
I thought it was because it can have bacterias
Actually the thing about the orchid being a symbol of intersex is true! This might be a bit TMI (or possibly incorrect) but it's supposedly because the flower is supposedly shaped like breasts and male genitalia at the same time😅. Personally, I see a really cool looking flower. 9:30
PS I might be wrong about this, feel free to correct me! I don't want to spread misinformation.💛💜💛
Thank you so much for making this! It was really fun to watch and learn about intersex people. Happy pride everyone!🏳️🌈
No problem! Happy pride
it must be such a funny experience growing up intersex, manage to live outside the binary in a binary ass society, being nonbinary, and then realising that just means you were cis all along 😂😂
I get what your saying, but a close friend of mine is intersex and it's not fun at all for him. Growing up he was treated really terribly by people, and he spent a lot of the time in the hospital. He's told me about discrimination and prejudices against intersex people, especially in the medical community, and it's just terrible.
I apologise for any errors, my English is poor.
Still doesn't necessarily mean you're cis, you still differ from what you were raised to believe you are (assuming your parents or doctor placed you into one of the two binary categories) and it's just an added layer of complexity to experience for them. I am not intersex (at least I haven't had any indication that I am) so if I got anything wrong, any intersex person should correct my perisex butt.
@@ewm6219 Mmmm no I can imagine it wouldn't be fun. I guess my philosophy is that you find the humour in whatever situation you're in regardless of how bad, but that said I haven't really had any problems of the same caliber as other people, like your friend. I do hope my comment was an okay joke to make and that no intersex people feel like I'm making fun of them or diminishing their experience, that was never the intention 🙏🏿 Hope your friend is okay!
@@ewm6219 I believe they meant strange and maybe funny to look back on, more than meaning an enjoyable experience.
@@SoularSlothesk I'm also perisex (from what I know), but I'm trans non-binary. Well, modern concept of trans is "someone whose gender is, at least in part, different from what they're as at birth". You're right, in most cases intersex people are forced to live with a binary gender, so I think both intersex and perisex trans people have a lot experiences in common. That way, an AFAB intersex person who's not a woman, for example, would be trans.
Found out a couple weeks ago that the son of my parents friends is actually intersex, so, yeah, they are more common then you think
Happy pride to everyone 😁🌈
To you too!
I don't know much about Intersex people and this helped me learn a lot!
2:57 aargh. I literally hate when males and females argue because of this. Like, it’s sooo annoying. At least we know the truth now 😏😏😏
yeah lol
My periods never really hurt very much, so it varies. Maybe it's worse for that person, but it doesn't mean they're that bad for everyone. It's such a subjective experience, I don't know why so many people want to try to make objective comparisons. You just can't, because the amount periods hurt, if they even do at all, is far from standard.
@@conlon4332 I think for some people it's worse, I also think periods are worse, because they happen more often for most people.
@@anonr.4862 My point is that for some people it's worse, and for some people it's not. It varies massively.
@@conlon4332 Yeah, you are right. For some people, like my friend, it doesn't hurt at all.
I didn't mean to deny that.
2:57
One: thanks
Two: how
they are intersex
I'm intersex and love looking at these videos because it's way to hard for me to find some positive content thanks alot for making these
1:00 Intersex isn't just about reproductive organs/genitalia, but also chromosomes and Hormones aswell. It's people born with variations in their Reproductive Organs, Chromosomes, and/or hormones that do not fit neatly into traditional Male and Female Binary categories. The Intersex identity is an Intersectional identity that is a part of Disability, Gender, and/or Political identity; though each Intersex individual is different and may not feel their Intersexuality is associated with 1 or more of these.
I've heard about intersex but I didn't know what it meant. I'm glad I can learn.
2:58 is incredible, made my day
I actually learned so much from this. Thanks for this!!
8:00 Redheads are uncommon across the world, largely because there are huge areas where nearly everyone has black or brown hair (like most of Africa and Asia). If you live somewhere with a lot of white people, especially if a lot of them have Celtic backgrounds, then it's going to be far far more common there than it is worldwide. Meaning, you may well have met many more redheads than intersex people, or many less depending on where you live. Intersex people are relatively evenly distributed across the globe, redheads are anything but.
There are about as many intersex people as there are redheads. That was the point. You absolute dunce.
Thank you for putting these together here, I'm not intersex myself and I don't know if I've met anyone who is but I am writing a character who's intersex and this was really helpful for my research sessions I think :)
Green eyes are also roughly as 'rare'. Actually lived with someone who was red haired, green eyed, and intersex.
2:57 glad to see this made it
Love you and your content! Keep it up!
I read 2 daughters as 12 daughters... was confused
Another great view video
got a trevor project ad 💗💗
Wait so I’ve met a intersex person before?I never knew
I always assume intersex people are common knowledge until I hear people who this gender is sex say there’s two sexes lmao
This has nothing to do with your comment but I love your username
I AM INTERSEX!!!
COMPLETE ANDROGEN SYNDROME!!1 WOOOO
I learnt a lot and now I wanna learn more!
question, do you know if there is a pangender day, and if so when it is. Thank you -Z
Yep! Pangender is actually on the nineteenth, aka Father’s Day and Juneteenth this year
^ pangender parenting
omg yes please I need to know since my younger sibling is pangender
Im intersex snd youth! I was left intact and im i can actually get pregnant. My semen contains no sperm so unfortunately i can have kids that way. I have irregular periods and i present myself as more masculine though i do identify as non binary/ intersrx and use he/him or she/her pronouns. I didn’t even know till a year and a half ago so this is all super new to me. Im out and prideful about it. But a lot of straight guys ask me if i have virgina*** to have sggs and stuff like that. I do however it’s actually located inside a skin flap thingy very shallow into my anis
My cosplay is intersex!
as a natural redhead the ratio of intersex people to redheads was pretty neat to hear
Thank you for the intersex tik tok. This is beautiful. I am intersex. My intersex variation is cryptorchild. Good luck to you!💛💜💛
Where can I buy the gay cookies? I need to know XD
Regarding the into at 5:00, there actually are women with XY chromosomes, there is a condition called androgen insensitivity disorder where a genetic xy person does not respond to their body producing testosterone so they still become physically female. You would never know from outer inspection that their vulva did not lead to a uterus, it is usually only found once a woman reaches adulthood without beginning menstruation and is examined by a gynocologist. They usually do not have a uterus or ovaries but where their ovaries should be are sort of testes, not exactly usually called gametes. I don't know that they consider these people intersex because while they lack the ability to reproduce, their external genetalia are not ambiguous. There is an opposide one where babies seem female at birth and then go through male puberty and what look like the labia are actually testes, and usually the clitorous is enlarged but I don't know as much about that one and their genetals are a little more difficult to identify by inspection. There are so many issues about someone's biology that can vary, including having some cells be different than others. It is true that a lot of intersex kids are put through surgery to make their genetals "look" a certain way and I hope that stops, some cases of intersex also involve issues with the bladder or kidneys and the urethra in those cases surgery may be neccesary but I am a proponent for doing as little as possible to help normal health and urination because you don't know what sexual functions you might be ruining by changing things, for example a teenager who is a girl but had no vagina had a vaginaplasty to create one, she basically had a flap of skin that would lubricate when aroused, and afterwards it no longer did, so she regretted it and felt like she had basically had a hole installed for someone to use. Her parents had pushed her to do it because (wanting what they thought was best for her) they worried she wouldn't find love and happiness and a husband having ambigious genitalia. I am glad more people are learning about what intersex actually is.
@@amandarae5337 really I wasn’t aware of PCOS being possibly a type of intersex condition, but I honestly know little about PCOS.
@@MommyOfZoeAndLiam I have PCOS, but I don't know if it's an intersex condition.
My body produces some more testosterone than it's expected from an someone who have ovaries. It leads to multiple little cysts to form on my ovaries and often it stops periods from happen. It causes some other things like more body hair and some acne. I wish I had a deeper voice, like some people do
@@amandarae5337 If you don't mind my asking what changes does XXX cause? Are they exacerbated by the PCOS or do they cause separate types of outcomes for your body? (Obviously you don't owe me an answer if you don't feel like explaining on the internet).
@@laiclaro9100 I knew PCOS caused acne and more than typical body hair, but I thought the majority of the issues were internal and painful and so I thought it was more considered a medical condition due to causing pain, I hope you are not suffering (Or Amanda Rae or anyone with PCOS). I know it can cause fertility issues as well, but I thought that was due to the damage to ovaries from the cysts, that then caused them to have issues producing esterogen, I didn't realize the hormonal imbalance was the root of it. Now I am wondering if taking T can cause trans men to have PCOS like symptoms. I will have to look up more info tomorrow when I have time.
@@amandarae5337 Well... I like how even my body says fuck you to binary. I just don't know if it's right to say I'm intersex. I kinda need that science agrees about it, because intersex is different from gender identity and sexuality
1:43 Since they consider it a misconception does that mean none of that stuff is real and no one has both then? Who even thought of it if it’s not real? Whose idea was it?
If if ur in a survival situation n ur around ice, good chance ur tryin 2 stay warm. Eating ice will cool ur internal body temp. Dats y it's a bad idea. It's a better idea 2 heat it n melt it. Also, n I could b wrong, but I'm pretty sure ders bacteria n such

Is it bad to say I want to be intersex? Ik it’s not possible, but just- I- I’m trans/non-binary and I want,,,,,
I think it is probably bad to say bc it's like saying you want to be among people who are discriminated against and ignored constantly... even more so than trans/non-binary folk. However, I feel the same way. Somehow, I feel like that would make me _less_ sad/dysphoric abt being (most likely) physically male??? I am not a fetishist or a creep, but I feel like the _only_ person who feels this way.
It's okay to like say it when just expressing the experience of life you wish were having. For example I felt jealous of the person at 3:40..
But it becomes not great to say when adding on "because then like my life would be so much easier, or better" (like how hetero ppl may say they wish they were gay just because they assume it is easier dating that way)
I kinda disagree with the other comment...You aren't saying "I wish I could be apart of a marginalized group" just for the heck of it bring similarly marginalized...you just wish you shared that experience because it may resonate with you. If it does resonate with you more you may want to ask yourself more about why that is.
You can’t trans to intersex but you might be altersex or salmacian ( www.lgbtqia.wiki/wiki/Altersex )
I'm late but yeah that's pretty bad. Intersex people are systematically oppressed and constantly have to deal with discrimination and sometimes childhood mutilation just because they were born different. Also a lot of them have mild to severe health issues because of it. It's just wishing you were more opressed and it's really weird (coming from an intersex person) imo, especially because we're fetishized 24/7
4:46 Wait, what's an O chromosome? And how can you have two Ys? Also I'm pretty sure you can have just one X.
I was wondering the same thing. Apparently it's how Turner's syndrome is represented now, which is when you only have the one X chromosome you were talking about :)
@@user-dg3ug7ny5d Huh. I wonder why they'd decide one X is an O...
That’s why they’re called intersex. Their chromosomes made a mistake
Hey does someone here know? if intersex is as common as redheads, do a lot of intersex people just not know that they are intersex? or is the topic *that* shunned that nobody outs themselves even to good and queer friends?
i'm so confused please help :D
It's largely the former, but I'm sure there are a lot of people who never speak about it because of the social stigma. To elaborate, most people don't know they're intersex because their biological differences are internal, not external (think the secondary sex characteristics that arise at puberty). So by having the "correct" external anatomy to your assigned-sex-at-birth's, most people just never know and never will, unless something happens (or an expected thing doesn't - like menstruation or male infertility) that is a cause for concern, and GPs, gynaecologists, and other specialised doctors are contacted. Hope that explains it :)
Probably both
Alright who else's condition didn't show until puberty and dod your hair also change colour ar roughly the same time? I got a dick and ginger hair the same summer and I WAS NOT prepared. Especially since I'd started my period 2-3 years prior.
That must’ve sucked, I have 45x 46xy mozaicsm. But there’s nothing you can tell to see if I’m intersex except testing my chromosomes. My endocrinologist doesn’t think anything will happen to me as I get older, but I wonder lmao
okay, so I'm genuinely curious about the "can't define a woman" thing. why don't we just say any person who identifies with the term "woman" is one? i know it's a really broad label, but is there anything actually... wrong with that definition?
