Intersex children and their rights are painfully hard to listen to, and I am proud to be a part of the new legislation we are trying to pass that protects all surgeries and modifications on children unless medically necessary.

Didn't mean to be offensive, it was mainly uneducated curiosity on my part... I understand the good-natured work that you described and commend you for it... It just seemed very odd to me to spend that much time on something that impacts so few people.
Take care and continued success on your mission.
