My genome has never been sequenced, so I'm pretty sure you're talking though your hat here. I don't claim to be genetically intersexed, but in fact I don't know, and certainly *you* don't.

Are you actually basing your diagnosis on *pictrues* on my web site, Doctor?

No one could possibly make such a flat statement who has actually studied any of the science involved. Unless we're talking "science" in the same abused sense in which people say "creation science"...considering your apparent standards for diagnostic data, I suppose that might be the case.

It is indeed not simply a matter of choice...there's nothing simple about it. Or painless. Or inexpensive.

In view of the fact that both the State of Pennsylvania and the Federal Avation Administration have taken legal note of my reassigned gender, I find your use of "he/she" in reference to me to be intentionally rude.

"Sin of pride" indeed...
