Nikki Araguz, on trial for being born intersex

IN Texas, Nikki Araguz, an intersex woman, born in California, owning a California-issued birth certificate stating she is female, married in Texas to a fireman tragically killed in the line of duty, is fighting to be recognized as the legitimate wife of her husband and to receive benefits as his widow.

In the process she is also by default fighting on behalf of intersex Texans for the right to be married and her case has implications for intersex people in the rest of the United States of America.
