Description: Iain Morland, an intersex scholar and advocate--and a former patient--explores why medicalization is so embedded in contemporary society and how to challenge it.
Review Quotes: With writings that span three decades, there is no one more qualified to offer directions forward than Morland...Through Intersex, we can begin to imagine the true demedicalization of intersex. By admitting the failure of the promise of normalization and examining the layers of physical and emotional scars that this failed promise created, we can see the necessity of charting a new way forward that eschews sex/gender as a simple binary, embracing those whose bodies defy this false opposition.-- "Science"
