S1 EP7: How I F*ck as an Intersex Person
9/9/2020
Show Notes
Sean Saifa Wall was only a teenager when he was tricked into having a surgery he didn’t need. Born with intersex traits, doctors assigned Saifa female at birth even though his sexual anatomy didn’t match that of what is considered traditionally female. Still, his genitalia hasn’t stopped him from having some of the best sex of his life, nor has it prevented him from being an activist working to end intersex surgery once and for all.
