allow me to clarify

I think that you are some sort of researcher and that is the reason you are here. 

I am not a researcher, I have no advanced degrees, I do not specilize in interxed, pediatrics, endocronology, urology, gynecology ect... I have already explained my position, and the orgins of my interest in this subject matter, and that goes back over 20 years). Aside from a BS in biology I have no other initials infront of or behind my name. I am going to school to better myself and finially use my degree.  I am not here to be little any one or create some grandious medical paper where I get patted on the back or anything like that. I simply am not.  

so you find that CAH isn't officially classed as intersexed?

Once upon a time I thought so, but people here for as long as I can remeber have insisted it is not. I had to figure out why that is. Once upon a time I THOUGHT ALL girls with CAH have ambiguous genitalia. I now know (what most people here already knew) that is not the case. I found out other conditions are only classed as intersexed if the condition is severe. In my mind (in the effort to attach a lable that satisfies everybody) CAH in that context makes sence.

What is the point of your last paragraph for someone born with ambiguous genitals?

I was simply pointing out the minute anatomical differences between the two structures, nothing more. I also made it clear (or at least I thought I did) regardless of the actaul size or form of the appendage, if the owner has XY genes with testicles and a scrotum then it MUST be called a penis, if the owner has XX genes with overies and uterus then it MUST be called  clitoris. And allow me to say that is *MY* opinion based on observation,  and NOT a documented fact.

 You don't know what my urethra was coming through.

You are absolutely correct, I don't know. I WILL NOT SPECULATE OR ASSUME  ANYTHING. Nor am I trying to imply anything about you.

I'm sorry, I should of never of brought up the term female pseudo-hermaphrodite... how you write I should somehow consider it shameful.  My very existence makes others uncomfortable according to you dear we just don't talk about that... I'm not a freakin myth I exist...

I realize in an effort to be as factual as possible I can come of as being very insensitive. Obviously it is a personality flaw I must work on (been doing it my whole life). But I simply don't understand your above statement.

Amiee I do no wish to make enmies here, nor do I wish to be percieved as the bad guy.  I don't wish to make you feel ashamed about anything and I certainly don't want to make you angry. 

My wife and co workers for that matter would tell you in a minute I don't get hints. So please tell me flat out, what did I say to hurt or offend you?

 

To Amiee
