Abstract
The article aims to discuss if and how medical labels and practices create sex-anatomical standards with respect to which those who do not align with them are labeled as “abnormal”, thus also legitimizing some forms of violence and social marginalization. The case study of the German legal framework, where the third sex registry has recently found space, will then be explored to reflect whether non-normative bodies are liberated or governed, with related normalizing repercussions, through their legal recognition.
