It was overheated before the medicos noticed what had happened. The machine was on the wrong setting, the doctor had made a mistake.

Years later, David Reimer visited that doctor in his office, planning to "have it out" with him. The doctor didn't recognize him, of course, but the instant he figured out who Reimer was, as the story goes, his eyes filled up with tears and he could not speak. Reimer couldn't bring himself to do or say anything to the guy — he just left without another word.

Good thing. IIRC, Reimer was armed at the time.

Several articles lately about children in the UK one day coming to school in dresses and calling themselves girls names.

This is not much different than what this article said is a dead idea. As a matter idea this whole “transgender” thing follows those sorts of theories. Its aimed at the kids.

They used an electric cauterizer to circumcize him and botched it. ( I read the book - it’s called “As nature made him”. )

And common sense vs. psychobabble.

David Reimer's brother Brian preceded him in commiting suicide.

What a profound essay. This is a keeper.

They’re doing all these test on Caster Semenya, when they should have started by having him/her drop his/her drawers to see if he/she had junk. If not, then one could test further to identify the specific syndrome she labored under. But, having a visual inspection would be mean, invasive, insensitive and all that other hoopla (and all these tests aren’t???).

Since I’m still being bitched at for bad aim when peeing, I’m assuming I’m still male.

This stuff just boggles the mind. If truly sound science were being applied to these conditions, scientists would be trying to isolate the root causes of these disorders so that they could find cures, or proper courses of therapy in lieu of actual cures.

Wouldn’t they do a chromosome check to be sure which is which, before an irreversible operation?

[I’d think so, any way]
