The Queen's Tiara – androgynous or intersex?
[edit]The Queen's Tiara is described as having an "androgyne" main character. Is this character actually intersex (biological), or presenting as androgynous (gender expression), or nonbinary (gender identity)? I can't find a source to confirm this character is actually intersex. Does anyone know? Of course the main character can be all of them at once, but let's not conflate gender identity, gender expression and sex characteristics! LanaK (talk) 14:59, 30 May 2023 (UTC)

- Move to intersex representation in literature. This is to be WP:CONSISTENT with intersex representation in film. Also WP:CONCISE. Theparties (talk) 17:13, 18 November 2024 (UTC)
- comment - the problem with this proposal is that "intersex representation in literature" isn't the same as "Literature about intersex", and that this article actually covers both; factual literature relating to the phenomenon that is intersex, and intersex characters in fictional literature. Might be better to even split out this article, then rename - Alison talk 17:26, 18 November 2024 (UTC)
- I agree. The reason I didn't propose this way for Television is that "Intersex television" is strange, though Category:Lesbian-related_television implies it could be "Intersex-related television", which also isn't okay I guess.
- And, for example, French Wikipedia (along several interwikis) distinguish(es) "LGBT themes in literature" from LGBT literature. Web-julio (talk) 17:49, 18 November 2024 (UTC)
- Support Intersex literature. Keep it simple. Lewisguile (talk) 17:28, 18 November 2024 (UTC)
