Hey guys.
I don't know if you heard about it yet, but there was this farmer in india who was admitted to hospital because he was thought to have a hernia.
But during the surgery the doctors found that he had the whole female reproductive system inside him. But he didn't have a vagina, he had all his male parts there and they were working fine, the man has kids. But all through his life he didn't show any signs of female hormones or anything, like a hermaphrodite would have. He lived a normal life, became a farmer to earn a living, settled down with his wife and kids. And now he is being told that he had a vagina with no 'hole' to access the womb, uterus etc.

I feel sorry for him, he has got a wife and kids. And now the doctors are telling him he is a female. His family are supporting him ad much ad possible.





So what are your thoughts and opinions in this?

Technically he's not a woman. He's neither and both. All the sexual reproduction systems are working. So, he's neither and both.
However, I suppose it would depend on his chromosomes, right? Unless he has a chromosome mutation or something of the sort.

Although I'm not sure how it works if both are fully functioning. I suppose then it would depend on what's on the outside and what he identifies with. So he's not a woman, he's not really a full male either.
He has both, so he's both and also neither.

Odd..but he has a family! im sure they will support him

Hm....I wonder if he'll see if they work....

Lol, great question..

It's a bit .. strange. I feel bad for him.

I feel bad for him. That's not exactly a comforting thing to find out randomly.
