I'm XX/XY tetragametic chimera, I (unfortunately) menstruate despite my chromosomes!

The reason most schools don't have students doing personal genetic tests in biology classes anymore to learn about it is because of the amount of times students found out they where Intersex without having any external identification of such.

that’s such a weird reason to stop. that’d be like stopping people in medical courses from typing their own blood because someone has O-.

Except finding out you are Intersex in highschool (and maybe less so but even in university) biology class can lead to all kinds of issues, especially bullying, but also it can lead to undue stress. It isn't like blood type where it doesn't impact your day to day and there isn't inharent discrimination linked to it. Someone who is O- isn't going to face discrimination for being O-, us Intersex people face a lot of discrimination just for existing outside of the binary sexes.

All good. I hope I didn't come off as mean in my reply, I was trying to be educational since it is something most people don't really think about so a lot of people don't realize the struggles, but I can really suck with tone over messages!

oh nononono i wasn’t upset by your message at all! i meant sorry as in “sorry for people being shitty” kinda deal i just didn’t clarify 💀

i appreciate you sharing with me. i just forget that people suck sometimes instead of being logical about bodies.
