This book examines the divergent medical, political and legal
constructions of intersex. The authors use empirical data to
explore how intersex people are embodied through these frameworks
which in turn influence their lived experiences. Through their
analysis, the authors reveal the factors that motivate and
influence the way in which policy makers and legislators approach
the area of intersex rights. They reflect on the limitations of law
as the primary vehicle in challenging healthcare's framing of
intersex as a 'disorder' in need of fixing. Finally, they offer a
more holistic account of intersex justice which is underpinned by
psychosocial support and bodily integrity.
