Surgery on children with intersex variations is described as a human rights violation. Citing a UN report that equates these interventions to torture, the inquiry recommends laws be implemented to stop the possibility of conducting “irreversible, normalising genital surgery and involuntary sterilisation, which leads to suffering and stigmatisation.” However, when the inquiry refers to similar interventions on children it has named transgender, these are called a human right. The term is now ‘treatment’ and is “aimed at adjusting the body so that normal conditions are achieved.” This sounds oddly similar to the “normalising surgery” on intersex children condemned by the UN. The fact that surgery in this case is also irreversible and often leads to infertility no longer seems to be a concern. On the contrary, long waiting times for surgery are now cited as the main problem.
