DSD-identifying intersex people are a bit delusional.

Binary female/male identifying intersex people fascinate me. They say the term intersex is offensive but the words "sex-disordered female/male" which just conveys to "you're fe/male failure" is totally OK and accurate. 

Not only to say "DSD" was chosen as a term by endosexuals with 0 consultation from any intersex individuals. Many intersex people feel uncomfortable with the term DSD (Wow. You don't want to be called "fe/male abomination who failed at being their normal sex? Wow.)
They be intersex genital mutilation survivors saying how the very same boxes of fe/male who mutilated them are accurate biological classification. The boxes who need to mutilate children to fit their fictious reality. Lol.

DSDuderinos and binary fe/male identifying intersex people don't realize they are not binary fe/males, and never will be because of multiple factors. Fe/males do not need HRT to start their puberties, because their bodies naturally produces it. Fe/males don't have steak gonads. Females don't need uterus transplant to have children, because their body naturally comforts this feature. Males do not have uteruses. Fe/males either have ovaries or testicles, not both at the same time. Females have XX chromosomes, not failed SRY XY chromosomes. Males have XY chromosomes, not SRY having XX chromosomes. Fe/males sexual functions such as fertility are possible. Fe/males don't need to have their genitals mutilated to fit the fe/male boxes, because they're born fitting their criteria.
THIS is the difference between you and other fe/males. It will never change the fact you are not a normal female or male. It will never change the fact that 99% of the human population fits their sex perfectly, but you don't. Absolutely nothing can change this.

You'll be an intersex fe/male, or fe/male with DSD, but the DSD and intersex adjectives will always follow you, because that's how simply your biology works. You experience discrimination that normal fe/males do not (genital mutilation, medical maltreatment regarding your variation, people fetishizing your condition, needing gynecological care as a male or androgenical care as a female. Your biology requires extra care from the opposite sex camp. You are a life-long patient to HRT, things that 99% of the world does NOT need. Your biology demands specific medical assistance that isn't and never will be typical of the 99% world, services only available to the intersexed). ALL of this is why you'll never be a true female or male, or atleast an endosexual one. Your BIOLOGY and SOCIAL EXPERIENCES define this. No amount of cope will change that. I do not care what the "medical experts" (the same ones who mutilate children to fit the fictious category of sex, and the same ones who called us hermaphrodites for centuries) have to say about this. 

Another thing to consider is the fact that sex , whether DSDuderinos like it or not, is socially constructed. The categories of sex, male/female, are human-made boxes which categorize biological reality (such as ovaries, chromosomes, etc) into a criteria. The female and male sex criteria is strictly imposed on us everywhere, since birth. If you don't fit the fixed criteria and can't checkmark all boxes of each sex requirements, you will get mutilated to fit one. A female is ____. Someone who doesn't fit ____ is not a female. This is how "biological" sex works. If a is b, and c doesn't fit b, then c is not a. This is simple. If a somebody with ovaries is gonadally female, then someone without ovaries is not gonadally female. Same goes to the other sexually dimorphic traits. This is obviously socially constructed. While gonads are biological reality, who they're supposed to be attached to, and what label do the people with ovaries have, is socially constructed. The thing is that the DSD-identifying intersexed are not female nor males by their own strict definitions of it.

They are strong advocates of the sex binary, whilst the social definitions they have of sex excludes them. They could, for example, advocate for a change in what "female" and "male" means, to include the Intersexed in it too. To abolish the strict binary system, and purpose the bimodal system which benefits everybody, and doesn't mutilates those outside it the inflexible and intermisogynistic crietia of fe/male. DSD-identifying people don't know what binary or bimodal means either, as binary implies 0 exceptions from the rule.

I get them to a degree. It is pure ropefuel to be born apart of that 1-2%. It is pure ropefuel to know you'll  never be like other fe/males. It is ropefuel to know your boy/girl/man/womanhood was and is radically different from the 99% of population. I understand.
But the solution isn't to make the exact system who makes you feel this even more rigid or claim to be something you are not. Embrace your intersexuality (or "disorder"), rather than using stupid copes. I also strongly dislike being seen as a third sex thing (or anyone seeing Intersex people as a third sex and reinforcing an inaccurate pseudoscientific sex trinary). It's totally okay to be an intersex female or intersex male. I am one too, but my needs are different from those non-intersexed, and you should accept this reality.

Don't shove the DSD label up the throats of those who reject of being seen as failed fe/males and simply prefer to be "intersex" and nothing more. They don't claim they're third sex, or both sexes or neither sexes. They're just intersex and thats what comfortable for them. I personally am very dysphoric for being an intersex male and I wished everyday not be intersex (and still am) and just a simple male. But this isnt how I was born and I accept it. I am still male, but one with intersexual origin and experience. I know I don't fit the rigid binary of fe/male, even if I wish too, and I won't deny that as a cope. Variations in sex development exist. There's nothing wrong with that. Not fitting the binary doesn't make you are lesser or invalid. It means you have different experiences and label which you must accept.


Its beyond me on how people insist that misogyny and patriarchy is embedded everywhere but somehow the male/female categories (which are assigned by the patriarchy) are immune to any criticism or reflection.
