EVER since she "popped out" of her dress at Glastonbury in 2009, Lady Gaga has been accused of being a transsexual.

It seemed like a load of old cobblers to me but many viewers were convinced they saw something a lady should NEVER possess.

The singer has been dogged by sex change rumours ever since – and now Lady Gaga says she's ready to tell "the story she never told".

Stills released yesterday from her new video, Marry the Night, show her lying on a hospital stretcher.

And they have sparked feverish speculation that it's about her rumoured "sex change op".

She is intersex, so what's new I may ask?

And she also said she has parts of both male and female.

People don't seem to know the diff between trans- and inter- ... stupid sensationalist journalism, eh.

The op info might well be correct though, since intersex folks also need a little help of the aesthetic surgeon's hands at times, and so will she.

She never said she had she was intersex, she once made a joke on the radio. "I have a rather large donkey dick" Nonetheless she recently tweeted about the video containing something that may not be known about her... Which could be a range of things. If she is intersex..well then good for her..but honesty I think it has to do with suicide or possibly a overdose. (I'm a HUGE lady gaga stan) so yeah..

[AbraCadabra]

Before she came out big, she clearly mentioned to have parts of both male and female.
Then her management freaked, lest SHE be seen as a freak, and be called by all the bigots a hermaphrodite, which in fact had started to happen already.
Note: Hermaphrodite now being the older and derogatory term for intersex.

So a big denial campaign was started by her management for $$$ reasons (obviously), yet it finally culminated in "I'm born this way" essentially restating the actual fact, her being intersex  ...don't be a drag just be a Queen... etc.
So she is no Drag-Queen as some bigots would have just loved to have it and to rip their mouth off.

That is my knowing. I like her, her music, and her going against bigotry, a great and creative performer.

I'm tired of people making this out to be a big deal. So some people think she has a penis.

SO.

F***ING.

WHAT.

Does it really matter? It doesn't change her music or who Lady Gaga is inside. In fact, it doesn't change anything at all. You people who obsess over things like this are the problem.

[AbraCadabra]

Wow hon, speaking to the bigots?

Preaching to the converted?

It is/was a news item and those are BS loaded... so ->-bleeped-<-ing what? Right?

I've been following her since the club days back in 2008.. The reason why people people started calling her a hermaphrodite was because of this performance (Nonetheless she helped fuel the fire by saying things like "I have a big donkey dick, would you like to see it?" She studied pop culture from Andy Warhol and David Bowie...along with the 70's disco glam (Grace Jones)

Fun fact One of her best friends is a MtF, her name is Darian Darling.. 

and Don't Be a Drag, Just be a Queen is because she felt the connotation of Drag Queen is negative, so she turned it into something positive. - Fuse 2011 Interview

I'm a walking Lady Gaga dictionary lol..I have every song of hers including unreleased tracks.  *Enters delusional stan mode*

Like all great performers Gaga knows how to keep herself in the press.  And there's never a shortage of people who love to take a suggestion and blow it up into some huge deal.  They are playing right into Gaga's hands and she loves it.

That's exactly correct, which is what I mean to explain.. She creates headlines. So do I believe that Marry The Night, will offer insight as to wether she is intersex..

I doubt it..but anything is possible.
