Hey, all this time I thought you were a guy!

Here's another pic I haven't seen before.

In this photo released by the German Catholic News Agency KNA and dated from July, 8, 1951 Joseph Ratzinger, standing right, is seen with his family, father Josef, mother Maria and sister Maria, seated from right, and brother Georg following their ordination to the priesthood.

Here's a picture of his ordination in 1951. George Ratzinger is on the left left, Pope Benedict XVI is on the right. Check out those lace albs.
