Inter

Inter people are people whose physical gender (e.g. genitalia or chromosomes) cannot be assigned to the medical norm of 'clearly' male or female bodies, but rather lies on a spectrum in between. To this day, the genitals of inter children are surgically adapted to one of the two genders corresponding to the medical norm, usually the female, after diagnosis. This is sometimes accompanied by considerable health restrictions and psychological problems.
