cornince,
Zoe has done so much damage for any intersex person who dares to question her and as a result I am fighting back because I started to wise up and after hearing what Andrea had to say about Zoe, I too started to question Zoe’s intersex status. I’ve been going after Zoe, because Zoe has damaged the intersex community with so many claims that Andrea has said about Zoe.

As Editor of this Blog and as a person who has delved into the subject matter I tend to find all the John Gault (Ayn rand’s model of rugged individualism) claims of strangely bizarre intersex claims pretty ridiculous. Particularly when they come from people who have fathered children.

When this over all series of articles started its targets were Kirea Tirea and Cheryl Chase as well as their numerous sock puppets, Zoe was snared by accident.

But Zoe’s claims are so fantastical as for me to have had serious doubts right from the get go. Having been around the scene for some 40 years heightens ones bullshit detector. Particularly when Zoe starts pulling her evidence out of her ass and it turns into not just one of the more common signs of a possible intersex condition most usually found in those who come out young of partial androgen insensitivity.

Zoe is a middle aged transsexual with a guilt complex which is manifesting itself all over the web with this “Look at my intersex condition.” Ten years ago she might have been believed.

I may edit some of Andrea’s writing here, mainly for clarity and then to libel proof it but I stand by what she writes particularly when it comes to science.

Way back in the 1950s someone known in the literature as “Agnes” perpetuated a fraudulent claim of intersex that helped set back the cause of transsexual access to SRS and cause us all to be considered as potential frauds and liars. Since then Chase, Tirea and now Zoe have perpetuated this fraud.

At this point the deceit has perpetuated some hugely questionable claims.

As for Nicky, I am well aware of some of his positions and he is moderated as are others with “reputations”.

Haven’t you been harassing Zoe Brain with numerous sock puppets and talking about how trans women are really men all this time? What are you doing on this blog acting like you are all in agreement with its author? Either way, you’re a very slippery person.

Andrea,

Please reconsider this blog post. Zoe Brain has republished a letter from M. Italiano here, disproving many of the claims in the blog post with articles from PubMed and other sources. Please give it a look over.

Very well said.

I think you have hit the nail on the head.

Andrea

In the words of Judy Tenuta — “It could happen!”

If you are transsexual and have SRS — well, by golly, you’re just a plain old, regular, woman.

Is that the problem? Becoming just a plain old, regular person? Have all those years of being different/”special” left some folks NEEDING that sort of notoriety?

Is just being a post-op, a woman, no longer enough? Do some folks need to remain special — even if only in their small circle?

Many of us have tried various “cures” of our transsexuality prior to accepting our truth and having SRS — education, performing, drugs, alcohol, achievement, wealth, etc., etc., etc. Some have tried to find the “right” partner to “live through”.

None of those things worked — after all is said and done — we move forward and have SRS.

Is the possibility of a quiet, “normal” life so frightening we have to invent stuff — strange forms of intersex, new “special” ways of being post-transsexual/transsexual, etc.

Is the need to be separate (again) from the rest of humanity really that intense?

For some folks being transsexual seems to be the only way they were “special”. When pre-op, most of us were in a state of being VERY “special” — does that become addictive?

Wow, where did that come from? Not from me, that is for sure.

“You are the one making inaccurate statements.”

Can you be more specific? Or shall we end it here?

It is obvious to anyone who reads it that the article about a small minority of people amongst transsexual people.

The article is about human beings. That is a simple fact.

You are trying to distort what the article is about for some reason. That won’t work with me.

The article is quite clear what species it talks about.

If you consider transsexual people to be another species, thats your problem not mine.

I know I am a homo sapien.

You are the one making inaccurate statements.

Me: “I somewhat dislike statements made in absolute terms.”

I don’t think I am the one making absolute – and inaccurate – statements.

I wrote that spontaneous sex change can occur in some species and gave an example. I wrote that what happens in amphibians does not apply to humans regarding spontaneous sex change.

In context see:

“Spontaneous sex change can occur in frogs and some other amphibians.

The only way this could occur in a human being is if David Icke the conspiracy theorist is right in his claims that all our world leaders are really amphibians or reptiles masquerading as human. I think we can all guess the truth on that one.”
