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
