SUMMARY:Intersex Awareness Day
DESCRIPTION:Intersex Awareness Day\, celebrated annually on October 26\, is a global day for grassroots activism to end shame\, secrecy\, and non-consensual surgeries on intersex people\, advocating for bodily autonomy\, physical integrity\, and self-determination.

This is a fun social game for all skill levels. Come on your own or grab a friend and have some fun. The best part\, there are no fees because the game is on us.
