'A Moscow-based hospital performed an operation on an androgynous boy who had a genetic set of chromosomes typical of female organisms. At his very young age the boy was diagnosed as having cryptorchidism.  His parents, natives of the Middle East, wanted the son to grow older to have a special operation to solve the problem'

That's nuts trying to make someone male-identified physically female. Sounds like his parents supported him in his decision.

This made me laugh though:

Experts say that hermaphroditism can be diagnosed at the age of puberty  only when a child turns ten or twelve years old.  As for the above instance, ovule fertilization first gave birth to a girl. But then some abnormalities occurred during the cell fission, and the embryo acquired features of the male sex. It is not ruled out that androgynism could arise from an incestuous union in the family.

so now instead of admitting that there are varations in nature they are trying to link androgynism to incest. next they will say anyone with a hairy back is the product of beastiality!
