Hi Betsy,
Nice to see you again. I know you have been busy as all get out, and I missed you Betsy.
My understanding is that both organs are formed from the exact same leydeg [sp?] cells, and a "penis" is just a clitoris which has developed further.
In my case what they took from me, was everything else 'but' that. They did masculinizing surgery on me. I don't know if what I had was exactly the same as what she had in the photos, but I know it was similar. So I don't think the technique you speak of would have helped me. Unless they can do 'that' too. Something tells me they have only done research on growing phallus tissue though. [wink]
It really angers me that they insist that such natural variations are unacceptable, and knowing such special genitals are perfectly healthy and functional, and all the trauma and even deaths normalizing surgery causes, they do it anyway! Unbelievable!
Seeing these picture makes me kind of sad too. I feel a mixture of envy, and nostalgic sorrow.
