Interphobia—the fear, discrimination, and social stigma against intersex people—remains a pervasive challenge that undermines human dignity and rights. As we strive for a world that honors diversity, we must confront interphobia head-on. Equality means no one is left behind.

Intersex phobia—leads to social exclusion, medical abuses, and a lack of legal protection. This must end. Together, we can create a Ghana where everyone is valued, and intersex phobia is a thing of the past. #EmbraceDiversity #EndIntersexPhobia #IntersexRightsAreHumanRights

Menstrual health is a fundamental human right. Intersex girls and women and non-binary individuals deserve equal access to hygiene facilities, education, and affordable menstrual products.

There has been some debate in the medical community about whether conditions like KS should be classified as intersex. Some researchers argue that since KS involves a variation in sex chromosomes, it should be considered under the broader umbrella of intersex conditions.
