I think the reason this is a thing is because queer theorist Guy Hoquenghem says in one of his books ("Screwball Asses" I think, which also declares that gay, lesbian and straight "nationalists" will have to accept that there is nothing but universal pansexuality which requires them to submerge their idividual identities. Like his fellow "queer" Mario Mieli, he belieives that real radicalism comes from gay males shafting lesbians.) that by using the term "intersex" frequently as a rhetorical device it should be possible to destroy the supposed m/f binary. Its a rhetorical gesture unrelated to facts.
