Yellow and purple were chosen for the design as alternatives to the strongly-gendered colors of blue and pink.

The purple circle in the middle symbolizes "wholeness and completeness" as well as "the right to be who and how we want to be."

DEFINITION

Intersex is a term for those born with physical sex characteristics that cannot be traditionally classified as male or female. Variations may appear in a person's chromosomes, natural hormones, privates, or gonads, secondary sex characteristics, or some combination of these things. Many intersex individuals can be intersex without even knowing it, and some after being born have non-consentual surgeries to "correct" them with the excuse of it being a disability or disorder.

The intersex awareness day is on the 26th of October.
