Today is Intersex Awareness Day

We stand in solidarity with the intersex community, celebrating the diversity of human bodies and identities. Intersex people are born with physical sex characteristics that don’t fit typical definitions of male or female.

Let’s raise awareness, promote acceptance, and advocate for the rights of intersex individuals. Together, we can create a world where everyone is respected and valued for who they are. 💜

Join us in spreading knowledge and support!

This week we are celebrating Ace Week, formerly Asexual Awareness Week.

Ace Week has been growing alongside the ace community ever since it was first established as Asexual Awareness Week back in 2010.

It is an international campaign dedicated to raising awareness and expanding education of asexuality.

The week gives all of us an opportunity to celebrate how far our community has come and to dream about the future we will create together.
