intersex variation

CURIE: gmeow:intersexVariation
IRI: https://blackcatinformatics.ca/gmeow/intersexVariation
Category: property
Defined by: gmeow:slices/gender
Box roles: RBox role (What is this?)

An optional free-text note recording an intersex variation, for inclusivity where gmeow:sexAssignedAtBirth gmeow:saabIntersex is insufficient. Deliberately a plain note, NOT a clinical DSD taxonomy and NOT a value vocabulary — GMEOW does not model medical sex characteristics in depth.

Structure

Property shape: datatype property; gmeow:Person -> rdfs:Literal

Practical Pattern

Use gmeow:intersexVariation from gmeow:Person to rdfs:Literal when the relationship itself belongs in the native GMEOW graph.

Projection Coverage

Source	Kind	Profile	Predicate/Relation	Target	Evidence
`gmeow:intersexVariation`	projection	`gedcom`	projects to / <=	gedcom:husband, gedcom:wife	`gmeow:mapGedcomHusbandWife`; confidence 0.85; lossy: the traditional husband/wife terms emit ONLY in the clean documentary M+F configuration; any ambiguity, contestation, or absence degrades to symmetric spouseIn; gender identity is NEVER a source (SEX != GENDER)
`gmeow:intersexVariation`	projection	`gedcom`	projects to / <=	gedcom:sex	`gmeow:mapGedcomSexF`; confidence 0.9
`gmeow:intersexVariation`	projection	`gedcom`	projects to / <=	gedcom:sex	`gmeow:mapGedcomSexM`; confidence 0.9; lossy: the documentary sex-assigned-at-birth datum flattens to GEDCOM's SEX code ONLY when unambiguous; gender identity is NEVER a source (SEX != GENDER); any ambiguity degrades to 'U'
`gmeow:intersexVariation`	projection	`gedcom`	projects to / <=	gedcom:sex	`gmeow:mapGedcomSexUVariation`; confidence 0.85; lossy: an intersex-variation note marks the binary datum as insufficient; the code degrades to 'U' (the note itself is never exported)

Usage Advice

Use when

Use only to carry a brief free-text inclusivity note about an intersex variation that the coarse gmeow:saabIntersex value cannot capture.

Avoid when

Avoid using it as a clinical DSD taxonomy or a value vocabulary, and avoid it for ordinary sex-assigned-at-birth recording (use gmeow:sexAssignedAtBirth); GMEOW does not model medical sex characteristics in depth.

How to use

Attach a short plain literal alongside gmeow:sexAssignedAtBirth gmeow:saabIntersex; treat it as the deepest sensitivity and keep it out of public projections.
