Maybe i can and maybe I cannot be of help....

[dittedot]

I speak and write Danish, German and English. The latter two maybe not perfectly without the spell checking feature.

At a university I have been studying law for a couple of years but I have not yet finished the education completely. However, this doesn't mean I not able to do legal and medical research and really do digging in to issues.

Furthermore I am educatated as a merchant marine engineering officer with chief engineers licence, electrical power plant engineering officer on the electrical, boiler, and turbine side. I am also educated as an electrical installator dimensioning instalations in houses and factories etc. The latest education I received was as a Naval Officer in combination with my other professional skills. Until I stood forward and told the surroundings of my discoveries about my self I was a chief engineering officer of submarines, one at a time, in Denmark.

I am an out-turned person and can also participate in public events and have already been on air on television and participating in newspaper articles. However the first of the articles which without my permission was brought and spread as a press release to almost all of Europe I did not voluntarily participate in.

I suspect a former boss of mine to have been the source as he was/is a personal friend of the journalist bringing the article by the way in the same newspaper as the present time debated "Cartoons" were brought last year and which have caused an uprising in the whole muslim world. However, what was written in the article didn't resemble the truth about me at all. Instead I was hanged out as some sort of a freak and a "Korporal Klinger" like type.

Due to the above accepted in participating in a television broadcast. However, being a fun loving and humorous person the TV people concentrated more on this facet and on the contrast to this the tale of one's sufferings. Instead of concentrating on how many we are, what types we exist in, and what is done to us during infancy, puberty, and or later in life when it appears there, or the choice turns out to be the wrong one for the individual.

More to this at a later time in another thread.

But my experiences with the press has also taught me that it is very important for intersexed to be able to manage the media properly as very often what is brought to the public about us are very often not brought on our terms.

Therefore in my opinion if we are not being given the possibility to consent to the content of articles or broadcasts on TV or Radio, then it is a lot better to go live on air.

If live appearance is needed in my region I would be very happy to participate.

Just let me know what ever is needed.

Kindest Regards,

@<hidden>: I followed your acitivites over the past year and it impressed me very much of what you have done so far. Unfortunately it is not in an international language. It maight be very helpful, if you could find a translation into English.

At this point I want to mention of what happens in Switzerland. There, the new law for children's protection is presently discussed in the house. We took the chance to start the discussion to include the rights for intersexed children into this new law. There are politicians who show great interests for our matter. If, of any interest from your side, I will keep you informed.

I also changes my name into a female one. Had no problems here. As I am a dual citicen I applied also in Switzerland. The autohorities there seem to make me trouble. I will see!

What is happening in this respect, here and in other countries?

@<hidden>: The thing about law is that actually when reading the International conventions regarding children, and laws against mutilation and humiliation, it is prohibited to treat human beings the way we are being treated, no matter what seems to be the cause.

Question then is!

Are we or are we not considered human beings equal to genetically well defined individuals of male and female sex?

Who gives any one the right to go against nature?

If we read the laws and conventions that have been aknowledged by I believe at least almost all western countries, the way intersexed (or DSD´s) are treated is strictly prohibited.

As long as the statistics of the various types are being kept hidden to the public the mutilations and humiliations will continue.

We are the ones that pays for the mistakes performed on us.

To be continued........

There are still too many physists, who are experimenting with our kind. And they will go on in that way, as long as there is no strong law, who guides them and eliminates all interpretation. That is why I am a strong believer that our freedom can only reached on the way over politicians to the law.

[dittedot]

Yeah!....Wonderful to see one self as some sort of a research animal....

However, try fighting thesis and theories founding the beleifs of the people working with us!

Who do you think the politicians believe? Us, or the specialist working with and on us?
