Your baby was born with both male and female anatomy
WWYD if your baby was born with both male and female anatomy?
Saw a little clip about an adult who was born with both male and female anatomy. The parents decided that the baby would be raised as a boy. The boy grew up confused and felt like he never fit in.
When he became an adult, he decided that he wanted to live as a female. So, he happily lived as a woman for a long time.
For some reason, living as a woman was not working for her. She changed back to a male and says that that is what he will be forever.
As he explained his story, the pain and confusion that he has felt just broke my heart. His family has rejected him.
I began to wonder what I would do if I were to give birth to a baby like this. Drs. could do a blood test to determine male/female hormone levels. Still...I dont think that would be the deciding factor. The baby would grow up and I would wonder how he/she is going to feel.
WWYD? How would you decide gender for a baby such as this?
