Just a quick note to let the Canadian subscribers know, that I will
be interviewed on the CBC radio show, "The Current" this week. (It is
on radio 1 from 8:30 am- 9:30 am, and the segment is scheduled for
Wed. They are taping us tomorrow) It will be about inter sexuality.
They plan to have a 1/2 hour interview with an individual who has CAH
and xx chromosomes who was raised as a female but who is now living
as a male, and is not happy about the treatment that occurred as a
child. In the next 1/2 hour They will then interview myself and Dr.
Alice Dreger, an activist for inter sexuals.
I will be talking about surgery on genitals, parents' feelings and
hopefully coping ( who knows how the questions will be asked!!)
Those of you not in Canada, may well be able to listen to it via the
internet, at http://www.cbc.ca/thecurrent/index.html

time zone most appropriate for you.)
