Swager grew up as a boy, Michael, but always knew there was something feminine about her. As an adult, she learned that she was actually genetically female and began transitioning.

Um, wouldn't looking in the mirror give 'it' a clue?

My hometown where I lived from toddler to adolescent. Yuck!

Genetically “female?”

Uh.... I don’t think so. Sodomites lie. This is probably one of them.

[Buggman]

If it’s actually a genetic / hermaphroditic condition, she has my sympathies and support. But self-deception does seem more likely.

Doesn’t the question really come down to the “Y” chromosome as to what sex a person is?

[AppyPappy]

Oh no. You can’t trust reality because it doesn’t take emotion and feelings into account. Besides.....science

It's rare, but there are times when one's external sex characteristics do not "match" one's genetic makeup.

Are she and the boyfriend intimate? Has this person had the operation to make private parts conform to gender identity???

Just wondering ..........

[rfreedom4u]

I would think one would know when they realized they had female genitalia. Or am I missing something here?

[Blood of Tyrants]

Genetically female yet trying to live as a male is different that “feeling” you had the “wrong” body parts and seeking out a surgeon to perform an addadictomy or lopadickoffme. I feel for the former but have no sympathy for the mentally ill latter.

[null and void]

If there was any ambiguity he/she/it can always look in the genes/jeans...

[sparklite2]

She makes a more convincing looking female than a male. You go, girl.

[Blood of Tyrants]

She is one of the rare people who did not have the correct parts due to some genetic abnormality.

[ConservativeInPA]

I can’t figure out from this article what’s going on. Does genetically female equate to anatomically female?

[Tolerance Sucks Rocks]

I’ve never heard of a XX-male before. I have heard of XY-females (androgen insensitivity syndrome).

[longtermmemmory]

I suspect it may have been a “voluntary” abnormality. Most such defects are dead before puberty.

I’ve never heard of a XX-male before. I have heard of XY-females (androgen insensitivity syndrome).

According to wikipedia, XX-male syndrome affects four to five out of every 100,000. So, it's rare, but still probably 10,000-20,000 in the U.S.

[Harmless Teddy Bear]

Not if we are talking birth defect which is what it sounds like it is.

The presence or lack of a schvantz should be a definite tell.
