www.Intersexions.org

The idea was to make a site for the French speaking population which primarily existed in France. So a member of the Google groups, that the OII run, decided to start if off by opening a forum from forumotions, a server that I had never considered. After handing this to me, I started on the graphics with the aid of a dear friend of mine, another xxy who had talent and the tools for such a task. Curtis asked to have this site in the setting of a Café. This site was called Café Intersexe.

This was a challenge for me as the entire site was French. Although I do speak and read French in my secular work, this was something a little different as it was Parisian French, a whole different ball game than from the Quebec French. But things went along smoothly and in no time was it open for conversations while the graphics and technical details were finalised.

As I was excited about this site, I had asked Curtis whether he would like the same in the English board. The answer was yes and so I started on it. This one is called Intersexions Café as I thought everyone from around the world will be convening on this one site. The graphical themes were set accordingly. Again my dear friend had helped me on some things that were out of my realm or reach even.

You know that famous shoe that drops ? It was in a form of a cement shoe in the Intersexe Café where members of that forum were quite disrespectful towards other members and the atmosphere quickly became poison. No matter how hard Curtis and I tried, the people there were insistent that prejudice was to be a part of their posts. It soon became apparent that this site would not work and so Curtis and I made steps in closing this site down. We handed it over to the trouble maker in the group and he shut it down not 5 days later due to the overwhelming responsibility that suddenly fell on his shoulders.

In a discussion, Curtis and I immediately stepped up Intersexions Café to include the most common languages such as French, Spanish and German all along that same theme. The Head Admin there, Gina, made sure that none of this nonsense in the other Café were present in the Intersexions site and it is to this day.

Presently, we are enjoying the different thoughts and conversations from all corners of the earth and I must say that site is doing very well. Curtis is ever thoughtful to give us news on what is happening around the world where Intersex is concerned and many others give their reports in a well. So we are well informed of the goings on Internationally.

It’s nice to see that we have an impact everywhere in the world, truly a feeling of belonging is to be had in www.Intersexions.org .
