Gospel Artiste Opens Up About Growing As an Intersexual and Being Sexually Abused by His Father
Intersexual Society of North America (ISNA) describes an Intersexual as a person born with a reproductive or sexual anatomy that doesn’t seem to fit the typical definitions of female or male.
People with this condition often become a taboo or an object of sexual fantasies.
But this will change soon thanks to Kuchu Times, a magazine created by the gay community in Uganda that that highlights stories of the gay community.
In their latest edition, they focus on an intersexual, depicting him as a real person, not objects to be gawked at, or to be fantasized upon.

“I underwent a medical examination and the doctors confirmed I have a normal uterus, ovaries and I can bear children.” He says.
Adding that “My mother tells me that she had to conceal the truth for fear of wrath from the community. The Luo community treats such cases as a bad omen. I could have been killed had my community gotten wind of my condition. She also told me that she feared that we could have both been thrown out of our home.”
He also confesses about having his first period “I was shocked when I experience my first monthly periods, my breasts and hips begun to grow. However, my mother took me to a local dispensary where I was given some medication and some of the features like the growth of breasts and hips stopped.”
According to the site, the musician had also been molested y his step father as a kid but was not too keen to open up about his traumatic past. But despite all this, he has managed to live a normal life and even has a wife and kids!
