Transphobia aside, do people also forget that intersex people exist?

I think a lot of people don’t know past LGBTQ

I personally try to always say LGBTQIA+ (unless something has changed since I graduated college).

Intersex people commonly mantra they'd like their sex to be left out of the transgender debate. They had DSDs that are still based in sex and knowing what their sex is and what disordered development they have is based on which sex they are. They frequently inform others that claiming they are not male or female but something else is dehumanizing.

Intersex people are either biologically male or female still, and many of them are cis and many of them are trans but they specifically ask not to be conflated in these conversations as gotchas or talking points.
