Discuss the dilemmas that arise from an intersex assignment.
What will be an ideal response?
Varies. Intersex occurs when an infant is born who is not clearly biologically male or female. Sometimes these biological characteristics result in ambiguous genitals but other times intersex conditions are only evident later in life. Many parents are very uncomfortable if their child is intersex and some use surgery to assign their child to one sex or the other. It is easiest to assign an intersex person to being female and that is the most common practice. Among intersex people, there is a growing movement against sex assignment-related surgery.
