    Transvestite, I believe, is also a term applied to intersex persons as well, as far as I know… At least historically.

    The condition of being intersex, as far as I’m aware, is a well known condition dating back really far.

    Those people truly have no gender (and/or they’re both genders? IDK), so “trans” doesn’t really apply to them IMO.

      People used to use hermaphrodite as a slur not that long ago for intersex people, as well.
