Polish politician quits homophobic party after revealing he's dating intersex model
"People who are intersex have genitals, chromosomes or reproductive organs that don't fit into a male/female sex binary. Their genitals might not match their reproductive organs, or they may have traits of both. Being intersex may be evident at birth, childhood, later in adulthood or never. Being intersex isn't a disorder, disease or condition."
"I was imprisoned from birth, I lived against myself. My body and mind developed toward femininity, but my genitals didn't. I was ashamed to go to physical education classes because I was embarrassed."
"Catholic, Pole, nationalist. Confederate activist, member of the National Movement and the Union of Soldiers of the National Armed Forces."
Dawid Szóstak left the anti-LGBTQ+ Confederation party after announcing a relationship with Michalina Manios, a Poland's Next Top Model finalist who was raised as a boy until age 18 and identifies as intersex. Intersex describes people whose genitals, chromosomes, or reproductive organs do not fit a male/female binary and is not a disorder. Szóstak removed his X account after previously listing Catholic, nationalist and conservative affiliations in his bio. Szóstak and Manios met on a dating site and bonded over shared Catholic and traditional values. Manios placed third on the reality show, appeared on The Voice of Poland, is studying sexology, and lives between Sweden and Poland.
