Both the doctor on Oprah

Submitted by hope on Thu, 09/25/2008 - 8:15am.

Both the doctor on Oprah and the Parents' Handbook distinguish between sex and gender, but in his lecture Paul did not make this distinction. Is it useful to seperate the biology of the mind from the biology of the rest of the body?

i also wonder how Cal's life would have been different had his parents been informed about DSDs and had communicated more openly with him. even though they didn't know there was anything different about Cal, i feel like their silence on the subject of development made Cal's condition more confusing to him.
