Intersex people are born with sex characteristics, such as genitals, gonads and chromosome patterns, "that do not fit typical binary notions of male or female bodies".[1]

It is important to note that intersex people have many different gender identities,[1] and so there is no presumption that people on this list have any particular identity. This list consists of well-known intersex people, followed by a separate list of notable researchers on intersex issues. The individual listings note the subject's main occupation or source of notability.

Discussion in media and on internet

  • There has been intense speculation about Caster Semenya, the South African middle-distance runner, being intersex. The way she has been dealt with by the sporting community and the media has itself been the subject of debate in the media.[49][50][51] Tests she was subjected to included what were described as humiliating genital photography.[52]
