Definitions for "Intersexuals"
An individual who was born with anatomy or physiology which differ from cultural ideals of male and female." The newborn may have an enlarged or protruding clitoris, or a "micro-penis". In about 90% of cases, intersex infants undergo genital surgery to make them appear as a "normal" female. There is growing opposition to such surgery. As adults, they often " manifest physical characteristics, expression or identity" that differs from the sex that was assigned to them at birth.
