Summary:  "Intersex and/as/is/with disability. The connections between intersex and disability deserve nuanced attention if we are to strengthen intersex human rights claims and understand the experiences of intersex people living with the disabling consequences of medical intervention. Cripping Intersex explores three key themes: the medical management of people with intersex characteristics; the mainstream fascination with sport sex-testing policies; and the eugenic implications of preimplantation genetic diagnosis. This necessary work offers radical new understandings of intersex-with-disability by investigating how intersex and interphobia intersect with disability and ableism, and pushes analyses of intersex experience further than feminist or queer theory can do alone."--Provided by publisher Genre:  2SLGBTQIA+ Holds:  2   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Item type Status   Sheet Harbour Public Library Adult Nonfiction 306.7685 O75c Adult books Item being held Add Copy to MyList
