Kayo Satoh Announces she was born a man

[bigdave]

Okay so this is a week late but I thought I would want to get some discussion on what everyone thought of this announcement. I heard it is called Ambiguous genitalia. and for some of us who are going to say it TRAP D:

lol'

If this has been posted somewhere I ask a mod to just close my thread down thanks

(shrug) nonetheless, she's cute? whatever... hopefully she's happier in her current state?

[Kudryavka]

She's the best man-to-woman I've seen yet. First time seeing one who really got the thinning of body hair down pat! Amazing

And she's got the magic touch with makeup! You can't even tell she's a guy unless you see her natural, and even then only if you already know. I wonder what her reasons were.

Really? I heard she just took hormone shots. No plastic or deductive surgery or anything.

So she was born with a certain condition? She was born male but they raised her as a female? I don't quite get this.

If I read correct... she simply had(?) some characteristics of both sexes. "Born male" doesn't really fit here if one has a vagina but also over-developed urethral gear. No idea what Kayo's physical situation is (and not really our business) but she probably always *felt* like a girl but asian family was really keen on having a *son*. Even if her DNA is XY (or XX), there's so many other factors in neural and hormonal development that she's a girl as far as it matters in her head.

Well there are those born as XXY. It is sort of rare though.

Didn't we have a House episode about this condition?

Week late? I could've sworn this was announced last year.

Yeah, in an interview she said she's been using hormone injections since she was 15, with no surgery.

This is kind of a pointless thread. It should be in News Stories, it should have a news story link in the OP, and it's already a year old.

Edit: It's also not real polite to point out transgendered people and shout TRAP D:

And XY but do some issues are born with female characteristics.

Yeah... LAST SEPTEMBER 2010 *cough*. And yeah, per syn's post -- the whole basis of the thread I find just a little more than juvenile/immature. But I was trying to be civil.
