BORN WITH MALE, FEMALE PRIVATE PARTS

HELP is on the way for a two-year-old child who has both male and female genitals.
The mother of the child sounded the SOS when she brought the child for free medical treatment by Korean doctors under the African Children Foundation. The doctors have told the mother that the child has hermaphrodite, a congenial genital disorder which means having both female and male private parts.
The Korean doctors on Saturday decried the child's condition, saying the child must be given urgent medical attention.
As a child n, the child has not been registered either as a boy or a girl.

For a child in Africa, this is, indeed, an urgent matter.

Really has an urgent tone. Meh, why can't people just let IS people be? Maybe let them decide for themselves if they choose to be a part of a single gender?

Sadly, in Africa, there are people who are seeking to recapture, what they see as their pre-colonial herritage.

That includes witchcraft and such. Unfortunately, their points of references tend to be places like Haiti.

Moreover, the social attitudes to things that are out of the ordinary, are pretty stayed.

It would be completely wrong to assume Africa is particualrly primitive. It isn't. But many attitudes and activities that are almost unknown in our western world, are not uncommon there.

Two Aunts of mine, who I thought to be so religious, one CofE, the other, 7th day Advantist, have been seen going to what was described as a Black magic Priest.

It's a sad situation in relation to individualism. But that doesn't seem to be the local priority.
