What is intersex and how does it fit into ISGD?

The use of a new umbrella term: intersex, sex and/or gender diverse (ISGD) to bring together people with diverse sex and/or gender identities or variations to campaign for civil rights has caused some controversy. Two Australian intersex ISGD campaigners, Tracie O'Keefe and Ind! Edwards, discuss the issues.

Intersex, sex and/or gender diverse (ISGD) people includes people who are intersex, transexed, transsexual, transgendered, cross-dressers, androgynous, without sex and/or gender identity or people with culturally specific sex and/or gender differences. No one person can be ISGD – it is a phrase to describe a collective of groups of people.
