My name is Elizabeth. I am a student at Lindenwood University and I am in need of an opinion. My paper is on the surgical removal of ambiguos genitalia and I am supposed to argue a point. My question is: Should parents of intersex infants have their ambiguous genitalia surgically removed or should the parent wait and let the child grow up and make the decision about the surgery for themselves. I Believe this question would be better answered by people who have either had to make the decision for themselves or people who have not been allowed to make this decision. You can email me at at any time. You do not have to give me a name and I will make sure that all annonymity is kept safe. Anyone who wants one, weather or not the help me decide which was i argue, can email me and I will send them a copy of the paper. Please email me and let me know a few things. The most crucial one is what side you believe in. Should parents make the decision or should they wait and let the individual choose for themselves. The other thing Id like to know (and if you dont feel comftorable telling me, its ok!) is weather or not that decision was left for you to make. Thanks for any help that can be given. I really appreciate it!

I know only too many who have had the wrong sex assignment at birth, best to hear it from some including the clinic surgeon who guessed wrong.

There must be the harmony between the brain and the body, why the individual best knows what the brain tells them in order to get the brain and the body working together without conflict.
