| In its 2012 statement on inter*sexuality the German Ethics Council wrote that the medical treatment of inter*sexual people constitutes a violation of bodily integrity. Nevertheless, the recommendations at the end of the 200-page study do not take a clear stance on clitorectomies . In my article I investigate the psycho-medical discourses in the fi eld of inter*sexualization which have been found in binary coded gender-assignment practices and theories since Freud. I focus on publications of the research collective formed by John Money, who has worked at the Johns Hopkins Hospital (Baltimore, USA) since the 1950s. These publications still dominate medical practices concerning inter*sexuality. The very specific readings of Freud’s theories on female sexuality which can be found in this context play a key role and influence the pathologizing approach which must be seen as a violation of the human rights of inter*sex individuals. | |
