Back What are the main differences between intersex people and transgender people?
The term “intersex” refers to all those people who exhibit innate variations (that is, since birth) of their sex characteristics, not in line with what are considered to be feminine or masculine bodies. These variations can affect sex chromosomes, sex hormones, external genitalia, or internal components of the reproductive system. Whereas the term “transgender” refers to those people whose gender identity (i.e. the intimate and profound sense of belonging to a gender) is not the one typically associated with the sex they were assigned at birth
