Intersex: Fiction, Memoir, Film
Staff-created list
It can be difficult to find media that accurately represents intersex people's experiences and isn't fetishizing or othering. Most of the material on this list, whether fiction, poetry, memoir, or academic nonfiction, is created by intersex people themselves. The rest has been vetted by intersex reviewers.
