Intersex Awareness Day

October 26 is Intersex Awareness Day.  It’s a day to share knowledge and stories from people who have intersex variations and highlight important issues to the community.

A member of the Intersex community here in Victoria is Paul Byrne-Moroney. Paul was diagnosed with Klinefelter Syndrome at the age of 28 and is a national advocate for people with X and Y sex chromosome variations. Paul recently had a chat with Joy team member Dave Samuel about his journey to finding the Intersex community and what his hopes are for the future.
