Okay
Priestess,
I wouldn't worry too much that there is a slight lull in the action. Even I was having a hard time keeping up!! There seems to be a natural ebb and tide to things. We were just getting...

Miriam,
I agree. Two thoughts: The First "If it ain't broke, don't fix it" philosophy certainly remains valid. If Intersex is working, by all means keep it. On the other hand, Thought Two: Its...

Vsd?
It seems that I recall someone suggesting that rather than DSD, an umbrella term might better be stated as VSD or Variations of Sexual Development. This would remove the term "disordered" that seems...
