Intersex is a term used to describre a range of what medical professionals call “disorders (or differences) in sex development” (or DSD’s), where people have some atypicality in their sex chromosomes and/or phenotypical sex development. Sam just completed his Ph.D. dissertation from Wheaton College on the topic of intersex, and Julie has an intersex condition called Swyer Syndrome.
