I am a pediatric Urology nurse. As such, I have patients who have the diagnosis of intersex. There are pseudo-hermaphrodites, male, female and true hermaphrodites, there are girls with CAH, there are boys with varying degrees of unusual formations, shall we say....
Anyhow, this intregued me from that viewpoint. In our world, hermaphroditism made a splash with Middlesex. As this is supposed to be a memoirs of a nineteenth centry French Hermaphrodite, it should be an interesting perspective.
