Abstract
The intersex movement refers to work undertaken by various organizations and individuals in the Global North from 1993 to the present to publicize the existence of intersex conditions (and intersex bodies) and to critique both their pathologization and their traditional medical management in infants and children. Activists attacked the generally secretive and unexplained submission of infants and children with intersex conditions to physiologically unnecessary, experimental medical interventions such as genital normalizing surgeries and gonadectomies without their consent that left individuals sterile, and, often, with impaired sexual function and a deep sense of shame. This movement was dominated for many years by the US‐based Intersex Society of North America (ISNA), founded by intersex activist Cheryl Chase/Bo Laurent. However, following the group's controversial endorsement of the 2006 reclassification of intersex conditions as “disorders of sex development” (DSDs) and its practical and political transformation from an activist organization engaged in a queer identity politics to an apolitical medical lobby group, the Accord Alliance, in 2008, the movement has continued through the efforts of an array of international online‐based organizations of varying politics and approaches, such as Intersex Initiative Portland, Bodies Like Ours, Organisation Intersex International, and Advocates for Informed Choice.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
