>>Nonetheless there are still millions of intersexed people who experience relatively normal lives

Relatively normal you say. What's their fitness as measured by reproductively viable offspring over multiple generations?

Most individuals in a bee hive never reproduce... well, until the queen stops laying anyhow.

Is that "normal", and what role do the related hormones play in that social behavior towards the fitness of the hive/(or the socially engineered human culture)?

“Relatively normal you say. What’s their fitness as measured by reproductively viable offspring over multiple generations?’

“Most individuals in a bee hive never reproduce... well, until the queen stops laying anyhow.”

Are you trying to say a person who is not fertile enough to parent a child must perforce be mentally ill?

You do realize some transgendered and inersexed people are fertile and can produce children?

“Is that “normal”, and what role do the related hormones play in that social behavior towards the fitness of the hive/(or the socially engineered human culture)?”

That has always been an open question within the secular cultures. The MTF (Male-to-Female) priestesses and the FTM (Female-to-Male) people have played significant roles in past cultures. Within the Christian societies eunuchs have played significant roles in the culture/s despite their gender non-conformity. The social conventions are not necessarily reflective of the biological realities or the biological imperatives.
