invasion of the intersexed?

I noticed today on the forums of cares' cah.org that the admin was accusing the intersex community of wrongly listing cah as an intersex condition in order to artificially inflate the intersexed population.

I've found that you can't argue with opinionated admins on their own forums.
But is this the way that most of the cah folks consider the situation?

I've seen posts here by mother(s?) who were seriously considering raising their cah-afflicted praderized girl as a boy, because it would be cheaper to not bother with surgery and then they wouldn't have to supress any androgens, at least in their minds. But how many parents would make their decision quietly and in private?

I wonder how many of the sons who are talked about on cares really are?
