There is infrequent strong language ('f**k') along with milder terms which include 'shit', 'piss', 'ass', 'butt', 'God' and 'hell'.
sex
There are references to sex and gender within the context of medicine or identity. These included mention of surgical procedures performed on children with the aim of determining their sex, such as implanting prosthetic testes, removing testicles, as well as performing medical interventions on the clitoris. Several people express regret and anger at not consenting to these procedures and one describes, in undetailed fashion, having someone's fingers inserted in his anus for a medical examination. A vaginal dilator is described as a 'medically designed dildo'. A brief clip from the American Horror Story: Freak Show series is shown in which we see a woman with three breasts, her nipples hidden behind tassels.
discrimination
There are references to transphobic, homophobic and intersexphobic beahaviours and attitudes; some of these are attributed to historical approaches of the medical profession in the US to those with an intersex condition. A television presenter behaves in a mocking way toward the term 'intersex'.
nudity
We see photographs of naked people in the context of an art exhibition, with sight of breasts and pubic areas; this nudity is not sexualised. There is sight of black and white medical photographs of naked bodies. We see drawn and painted artistic depictions of nudity.
additional issues
There are undetailed references to a man taking his own life by shooting himself, and brief references to suicide ideation. There are brief, undetailed references to alcohol and drug misuse, as well as to bullying behaviour. People talk about the death of loved ones and there are scenes of emotional upset around people's experiences of medical intersex treatment and advice. There are brief, undetailed verbal references to cancer.
