India E news (http://www.indiaenews.com/india/20070726/62527.htm)
Hundreds are flocking to a house in Orissa's Balasore district to glimpse and even worship a baby born with both male and female genitalia, being described as an incarnation of Hindu gods Shiva and Parvati.
The baby, now five-and-a-half months old, was born to Baijayanti Singh in Ayodhya Nagar Patana village in Balasore district, around 200 km from state capital Bhubaneswar.

Quote'We have to verify whether the baby has testis or uterus and ovary and which organ is fully operational. It can be a normal baby after its inactive sex organ is removed,' Sahu said.
M************! Go ahead and flag me, I deserve it. I cannot handle this BS.
Again with the normal.

Agreed Thundra! Let the child decide in this case. It is sooo wrong to attempt correction without the child's input.

For god's (Vishnu?) sakes! Haven't people realized yet that intersex is not something to be "fixed"? Worship the baby, sure. Make it out to be immaculate, fine with me. But just let it be! The kid can decide down the road, and as far as I'm aware, there's no major medical repercussions to having both.

The straights are a cowardly superstitious lot. We need to find a way to strike fear into their very hearts in order to cause them to rethink their position on this topic. :(
Sorry about the derivative statement above. If you can tell from whence it originated, you will be the most coolest person on earth, and yet still not win a prize for it. :D
