http://www.stuff.co.nz/waikato-times/news/3255840/Frank-talk-on-intersexWaikato Museum hosts a seminar this weekend that will be a national first.
The panel discussion, initiated by the Human Rights Commission, entitled Intersex Conversations will be the first time two people who identify themselves as "intersex" have given such a presentation in New Zealand.
This afternoon local artist Yann Bradburn and Wellington counsellor Mani Mitchell will address issues such as terminology and working with intersex people. They will also talk about their own experiences.
Tomorrow there will be a professional workshop where Ms Mitchell talks to professionals who work with intersex and gender variant clients.
