intersex people are real.

The term "intersex" is no longer used by the medical community, as it wrongly implies that there are some people who are "between" male and female. The contemporary term is "differences in sex development" or DSD. E.g. people with complete androgen insensitive syndrome are male, even if they may outwardly appear female.
We're not talking about intersex people.
