In honor of Intersex Awareness Day this 75-minute webinar will provide an overview of what it means to be intersex and some of the complex issues surrounding the experiences of people who are born with one of several intersex conditions. The webinar will address the difference between biological sex and gender, why the term "hermaphrodite" when referring to humans is outdated and offensive, and common microaggressions that inadvertently harm intersex people will be identified. Participants will leave with recommendations for how people who are not intersex can serve as allies to members of the intersex community.
