People Took To Twitter To Share Their Deeply Personal #IntersexStories - Buzzfeed Recap

Intersex Awareness Day (IAD) began as a grassroots initiative in 2004 to help others learn about intersex people and our lives. This years IAD included the world's first ever Twitterstorm! It was an amazing worldwide event on Twitter that provided a platform for intersex folks and our friends and family to share our stories, provide support, create community and ultimately spread the message #IntersexStories, NOT surgeries!
