"People who are born with physical differences currently classified as having
intersex variations are part of the WHOLE human family. OII does not wish
to underline our differences from other groups, whether they be
heterosexual, homosexual, trans or whatever identity because we belong to
all these groups. What we wish is to build bridges between people and
groups from all over the world in the hope of ending human rights violations
against people with intersex variations and others who also suffer as a
result of these sexist norms which affect humanity as a whole."
