    All orientations include non-binary people, but not all orientations include all non-binary people. If you are a woman who is attracted to woman aligned/feminine aligned nb people that can be included in lesbian attraction. If you are also attracted to male aligned/masculine aligned nb people that would not fall under lesbian attraction. If you are attracted to neutral/unaligned nb people you may still identify as lesbian but it is up to your digression and how you think your attraction is best described.

    Intersex is not a gender identity. It is a physical, sex variation which is present in one's chromosomes, hormones (naturally produced), gonads, genitals, or combination of those things, that you are born with. If you were not born with such a variation then you are not intersex. And no, if you go on HRT you are not intersex. No, if you have surgery you are not intersex. No, you cannot "transition to intersex".
