The standard practice also goes against ethics laws and informed consent laws. And it isn't just infants who are treated this way. Adults found to be intersexed are treated like garbage too.
It also goes against the doctors Hippocratic Oath that they will "Do No Harm". By inflicting their binary gender notions on to people who are naturally born gender variant, they are in fact committing a form of "Medical Genocide" and medically eliminating a naturally occurring "3rd Sex" or "Gender Variant" sex out of existence via means of surgical mutilation of the persons genitalia and the use of forced androgen or hormone replacement therapy.
Surgically imposing a sex on an intersexed infant or child is a heavy handed way of dealing with a natural variation of the human theme. Making a child's gender conform to the doctor or the parent's notions of what is "normal" is a rude violation of a unique human being. As the woman interviewed here says, just wait five or six years, they will tell you what sex they are.

i watched this without sound
because i know what they must have said because i feel similarly
i am glad that someone like effeminate got a spot on a documentary!
i always liked natalies attitude!
many intersexed people do not look physically different to other so called "normal" people!
so lets not incorporate ambiguous genetalia with intersex people
just like,lets not be automatically included with the lgbtq´´s of the world
most human beings display intersex characteristics
middle gendered
