i used to go to CAHourstories.org
I had a similar experience years ago with a father. I had asked a simple question about anyone else on there being diagnosed intersexed with CAH and Mosaic. Whether any one else was like me, and left a email for people to contact me as i would love to hear from someone who had more then one condition. One of the fathers sent me an email pretty much shouting at me that his little girl was a normal girl and wasnt intersexed. My letter back pretty much asked why he was yelling at me. I left a few other posts too on the boared but stopped going. I guess some people get really offended about what labels, people use. As far as i know CAH is a adrenal condition that causes girls to masculinize as boys thus making them female psuedohermaphrodites, therefore intersexed. i suppose the board administrater simply doesnt want her/his child to know that, or he/she is the one with CAH and also is not willing to accept that as well.
I believe understanding and acceptance is or should be what everyones eventual goal should come down to.. Now as to how that perception goes, ie... If you think your male your male, if you think your female your female, or my preferred simplified version of acceptance, screw what everyone else thinks i am me and i will damn well live my life how i bloody the hell want to, screw what Doctors have done to me, ill fix that, my parents well in my opinion there pretty much worthless, there not much help anyways, i have friends who accept me for me, thats what matters. All the betrayals and lies i dont have to accept those anymore, i know what matters most, Loyalty, Trust, Honesty. i dont need anything else as long as i have trust.
Just a thought
