Normally, when a child is born to its parents, its genitalia is used to determine its gender. However, could it be that some children, even though endowed with a male body should've been born females? And could it also be true that, some children, even though endowed with a female body should've been born males? In essence, how does one define a man or even a woman? Does one define a woman based upon her genitalia, her physique, or her ability to give birth? What makes a man a man? we ask. Is his definition based upon his genitalia, his physique, or perhaps his mind? Anyway, the questions of life are many, their answers few, and I don't have eternity. Which brings me to this particular case of Steven Appiah.
