(THE STAR/ASIA NEWS NETWORK) - Sin Chew Daily reported that a Taiwanese woman was shocked when a gynaecologist told her that she had testicles.
The woman, 34, decided to consult a specialist after experiencing pain in her genital area.
It was her first time seeking treatment from a gynaecologist although she had never experienced menstruation in her life.
The check-up also showed that the woman did not have a uterus. When asked why she had not sought treatment or medical advice about her menstrual problem, the woman was lost for an answer.
Ugliest cross-dresser, ever.
Really?
Well, aren't you special. Show us where everyone is mocking her, for your vote of confidence about FReepers, since you're so much better than the rest of the riff-raff that haunts FR.
LOL
The correct response to a Juvenile State is
Knowledge, Experience, and Wisdom
One is easily administered
One often is a bitter fruit
One becomes a well worn path
I’ll bet when she realized her problem, she went to the nearest bar and “Taiwan” one!!!
Is that like the South Texas expression, “Taiwan-o compadre”?
ummmm... how did she NOT notice this???
Never mind, I don’t wanna know.
Weird...
“Shrinkage!”
There is shrinkage then there is SHRINKAGE.
Just DAMN.
Sometimes it takes a single incident to bring the matter home. In my case it was when I was learning to ride a bicycle and discovered that hopping off the seat to stop the bike with my feet only works if they manage to reach the ground. In my case, they didn't. There are men crossing their legs reading this.
How anyone can look at mammalian design and not conclude that God has a sense of humor is quite beyond me. "Then I'll tell 'em I made 'em in My image. Har har!"
These people are phenotypically 100% female, some say 110% because they tend to have stronger female secondary sexual characteristics with rounder hips and larger breasts.
Their brains have no testosterone receptors so as far as their brains go, they are 100% female too.
The testicles generally don't leave the pelvis so most never get diagnosed unless their mother takes them to the doctor because they never started their period or they seek fertility treatment because they are having trouble conceiving.
There are many doctors that recommend just removing the testicles because there is a high rate of cancer in them, and informing them that they are infertile women and not mentioning that they are XY instead of XX.
Thanks for the info! I have a friend who is a hermaphrodite, but the other way around. He was born with functioning ovaries. This has led to a whole host of problems for him. Unfortunately his parents are hardcore fundamentalist Christians who believe he is possessed by the devil.... putting him through exorcisms etc. uh.. no... his issues are physical in nature. Thanks for the info. I should not have been so flippant! Not given that I know someone who has suffered their whole life because of something similar. It was insensitive at best.
Don’t beat yourself up. Your question was a good one.
Northern Greenland? Hells bells, off the coast of Maine in the middle of summer was enough for me.
Brrrrr!
Had to coax them back out with a hot shower.
“Bollocks!”
Precisely.
She has testicular feminizing syndrome, or androgen insensitivity. The female anatomy is not suppressed by fetal androgen and the result is a genetic male with external female characteristics.
