Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Intersex, Ageing, and Intersectionalities explores intersex lived experience through a Western intersex lens. Intersex people comprise almost 2 percent of the population and are born with physical variations that defy binary, medical definitions of male or female anatomy. Since at least the 1960s, it has been standard practice in many countries to perform genital surgeries and other irreversible 'normalising' procedures on intersex children, purportedly for their benefit, but without consent and without patient follow-up or conducting longitudinal studies.This book centres the voices of those most often excluded from conversations on intersex - that is, intersex people. It contributes to feminist intersectionality studies in novel ways by examining the lived experience of older intersex people - intersectional beings themselves - and how their lives, bodies, and identities converge with structural intersectional oppressions and barriers to wellbeing in areas such as family, medicine, education, employment, and relationships. The book is intended for academic audiences who are interested in intersex and the complexities of sex and gender. It is also intended for students from a wide range of disciplines, as well as for practitioners, professionals, and activists who might encounter or work with intersex people.…
