A few days ago my sister (and her colleagues) turned a kid’s penis into a vagina. She’s a pediatric urologist, and apparently, quite a lot of girls (as in “with XX chromosomes”) are born with penises in various development stages.
She has XX chromosomes, but due to hormonal problems during the pregnancy, she was born with a full penis and scrotum, but no testes, and in her body was a full uterus and ovaries, but no vagina.
She says that nowadays, it’s much more common to not do this kind of operation, and let the kid decide once grown up. But in this case, because it was so developed, they operated it. Of course, it’s not something the surgeons decide. The parents have a counselor help them decide what to do.
To me this sounds backwards. Especially because it was so developed I would have left it as is. But I guess it’s not an easy choice for the parents. I keep thinking that one day she may become trans and learn they used to have a penis.
Anyway, this post made me think of that.













Whats the matter with PVC specifically?
