On gender article (Patricia Nell Warren): question Options

[bluebird48234]

According to the film, TO WONG FOO, THANKS FOR EVERYTHING! JULIE NEWMAR, only men have Adam's apples.

From Warren article:
"They were big muscular plain women, complete with Adam's apples."

How is that possible? Were the women treated with testosterone, and therefrom developed Adam's apples?

An autopsy surprised everyone by showing that Walsh had male genitals and both male and female chromosomes -- a condition known as mosaicism.

Male genitals?

Where (It was established that they had examined her previously...)?

"Mosaic" when used in medicine: an individual who has some cells with an abnormal or unusual genetic or chromosomal makeup while the rest of the cells in the body have the typical genetic or chromosomal constitution."

OK, so (somebody!): The "idea" of "male" and "female", outside of what we call "transgenderism", has been in question for, say, over 100 years?

And, more importantly, these individuals have been competing (and winning) in sports events (not to mention all areas of life) for almost that long?!?!?!?

I guess it's somewhat like people who (can be looked upon as "freaks" because they) have humongous body parts.

One never knows how a human will be born.
