I have heard that Jamie Lee Curtis was a herm as well. Anyone else hear this, or is it an urban legend.

curtis is not a herm like this.

curtis is genetically a male (XY chromosomes), but she is physically all female.

when we are conceived, we are all female. at a certain point in the womb, a protein is released that makes males male. if the protein is absent, we stay female (obviously, the sperm carries the Y chromosome).

that is why curtis cannot have kids.
