See, it's hard to say.

Surrounded
1 LGBTQ+ Activist vs 25 Conservatives (ft. Zander Moricz)

I would say queer and trans.

Surrounded
1 LGBTQ+ Activist vs 25 Conservatives (ft. Zander Moricz)

I think queer is an all-encompassing term, and trans is inclusive as well.

Let's talk about intersex, right?

Surrounded
1 LGBTQ+ Activist vs 25 Conservatives (ft. Zander Moricz)

So intersex itself... LGBTQ plus.

Surrounded
1 LGBTQ+ Activist vs 25 Conservatives (ft. Zander Moricz)

Well, intersex itself, right...

Surrounded
1 LGBTQ+ Activist vs 25 Conservatives (ft. Zander Moricz)

that still does not make a third gender.

Surrounded
1 LGBTQ+ Activist vs 25 Conservatives (ft. Zander Moricz)

The chromosome itself, it still identifies a male if it has a Y chromosome, still is a male.

Surrounded
1 LGBTQ+ Activist vs 25 Conservatives (ft. Zander Moricz)

So there are many people that are born XX that would have what you would describe as male reproductive organs, right?

Surrounded
1 LGBTQ+ Activist vs 25 Conservatives (ft. Zander Moricz)

There are many people who are born XY that actually have female reproductive organs because chromosomes themselves don't define biology.

Surrounded
1 LGBTQ+ Activist vs 25 Conservatives (ft. Zander Moricz)

Sex is actually a biological characteristic that chromosomes are a part of.

Surrounded
1 LGBTQ+ Activist vs 25 Conservatives (ft. Zander Moricz)

And we also see that it has to do with hormones and it has to do with sexual organs on the inside and outside of the body.

Surrounded
1 LGBTQ+ Activist vs 25 Conservatives (ft. Zander Moricz)

And so it's not a singular thing that can be defined.

Surrounded
1 LGBTQ+ Activist vs 25 Conservatives (ft. Zander Moricz)

There are 40 different chromosomal structures.

Surrounded
1 LGBTQ+ Activist vs 25 Conservatives (ft. Zander Moricz)

It's not just XX and not XY.

Surrounded
1 LGBTQ+ Activist vs 25 Conservatives (ft. Zander Moricz)

There are so many different people that fall within the intersex category.

Surrounded
1 LGBTQ+ Activist vs 25 Conservatives (ft. Zander Moricz)

And that's why gender-affirming care originally existed was to help these people receive the medical care that they needed.

Surrounded
1 LGBTQ+ Activist vs 25 Conservatives (ft. Zander Moricz)

What we're seeing is that it is so essential to help people

Surrounded
1 LGBTQ+ Activist vs 25 Conservatives (ft. Zander Moricz)

be who they are and it saves their lives when you do that.

Surrounded

LGBTQ plus acceptance does not.
