Born the daughter of Cher and Sonny Bono, Chaz, 40, has been undergoing a female-to-male sex change since March, a process that has already had significant physical changes on his body.

"It lowered my voice," he says. "Fat redistributes, muscle growth, hair growth, sex drive increases."

A salacious lead in to be sure. I feel for all transgender people and don't think they need headlines like this. Please have some compassion for people who are going through problems you can't begin to imagine. Picture your sister, brother or kids in that spot----would you want them to read these harsh, unthinking comments?

Thanks Robin, the real tragedy is not from being an intersexed/transgender child or person, but the archaic stigma in the culture that they face.

All the facts from clinicians and gender researchers are less than three mouse clicks away

It's simply easie for many people to hold onto outdated negative "memes" to stay misinformed and hateful rather then take the time to educate themselves.

And the old axiom is true, the loudest ones are the ones who are most insecure about their own gender.

Is she mistaking her weight for sex drive?

What a confused person. Not denying it don't have feeling but to say a designer or a natural selection process was wrong when you were formed?
Actually the person confused (besides me) is the girlfriend.... have sympathy but not stupidity.

Most Intersexed people don't advertise their condition. From some of the comments here, I think you can see why.
Technically, 1 in 60 people are neither 100% male nor 100% female, biologically. They have an Intersex condition. It takes a lab test to determine their existence. And what does it matter of you find out that 10% of your cells are 46XX when the rest are 46XY anyway? Such a minor syndrome won't even affect fertility.
Many conditions are only detected via a fertility clinic. It can come as a traumatic shock for a man to be told that he's got the 46XX chromosomes normally only found in females, but has De La Chapelle syndrome. Or for a teenage girl to be told she has the 46XY chromosomes normally only found in men, but has Turner syndrome, so has a normal female reproductive system, but dysfunctional streak gonads instead of ovaries.
However... for about 1 in 1000... the Intersex condition isn't subtle, isn't asymptomatic, isn't hidden.
Some who can't hide are the protogynous dichogamous pseudohermaphrodites with 5alpha-reductase-2 deficiency (5alpha-RD-2) or 17beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase-3 deficiency (17beta-HSD-3). They look completely female at birth, but masculinise to look male later. Some can even father children after the natural change. Commonly mistaken for female-to-male transsexuals, for the 2/3 who are boys, the change is a miraculous cure for transsexuality. For the other 1/3, the girls, it's a descent into nightmare.

This article is the very definition of "journalistic" TMI.

Why....? Why....? Why.....?
