@5tristanvm You're beautiful and more of a uniqueness in your collective brilliance, stand up for your people. =)

i think the director puted " xxy " to the movie for publish, but "akex," is hermafrodite,

well, i,m xxy man, and is not really that happend with the xxy men,

i have boobs, and female caracteristic, but never what have in the movie,

[mishakailana]

XXY IS a a beautiful film. The Title had nothing to do with the Character's condition. So please do not assume that XXY was meant to explain the Character Alex condition. XXY why was used because the writer's mother had a XXY fetus that she had been conned into aborting. When the writer heard that story from her mother, she felt it was important. Now their are XXY females, not just because they chose to reassign as females, some are infact born phenotype females rather then male.

[mishakailana]

Just because most medical texts only report that XXY affects males, how all are born is important, there is variation in most conditons. So please stop being so defensive about Klinefelters, you can end up putting down alot of people who are affected by 47XXY and they have the same condition you do.

XXY is a wonderfull movie

it's about kids try to found their own sexuality

that's all

it's not a XXY's documental

[kabardinka1]

I liked the film, and Ines' performance, but I didn't like the title, which is totally inappropriate to Alex's character (who seems more as if she has Classic CAH and not Klinefelter's. Calling it XXY seems like a marketing move.

[coaster1robert]

Now I'm mosaic

Klienfelters. which effects men Only ,The problem of the movie,when people see it they will assume that all XXY are inter sex,and that's not true. That's the problem with the movie. Now since

complexbiology turned out to be a female that's life,but's it rare for that to happen.

[x3somevanillasex]

@coaster1robert a mosaic huh? like xxxy or what? you know some with klinefelters choose estrogen right? most are dudes. and yeah the character was not xxy, but dude you used the term hermaphrodite in your your other post. movie title is misleading but you yourself are mislead... take care dude.

[coaster1robert]

XXY effects Men only. hermaphrodite effects woman only.

i wish this film director stop lying about Klienfelters.

[complexbiology]

I'm sorry but its not as simple as that. I'm XXY but my gender is female. I've met XXY people who are all different in their physical make-up and identity, so please don't try and write our existence out, thanks!

[Zeanu]

@complexbiology This is a kind of coming-of-age movie and finding your identity. Not a documentary about a specific kind of gender dysphoria.

[beatleishh]

coaster1robert sucks! xD

[peaceandparty]

muchas gracias

for doing something

anything to make aware intersexness

and xxy happens to be what i am

so it was a good portrayal of possibilities for xxys and for intersex people and for many transgender people

we are all people but we are not the same!

peace
