63.95.36.13 (talk) 18:41, 17 March 2008 (UTC) daedsdog@gmail.com - 3/17/2008 - the opening introduction of this article lists Kleinfelter's as a female specific syndrome. This is incorrect information. Kleinfelter's syndrome is arguably an intersex condition, but the majority of those with this karotype self identify and are phenotypical males. Katherine Harper's book "Intersex" does list at least one known case of a phenotypical female with the 47(xxy) Karotype, but this is the exception, not the general rule.

Is it possible to get some more information on the specifics of pseudohermaphroditism instead of generalities? Also, this article has a lot of subjective commentary. It would be nice to see this fleshed out. (Ibrmrn 12:44, 11 October 2007 (UTC))

[edit] Excellent work!

I created this article a long time ago. I'm not an expert. More has been published since I started the article. Also what has been added by others here includes excellent information going back to the 19th century. I'm very pleased. There is still room for a lot more information. At some stage, DSD and intersexuality should either be merged with this article into one common article (whatever its name), or demarkation based on the subtle theoretical stances underlying different usage should determine the shape of each separate article. (Sorry for that sentence.)

Anyway, great, eye-opening material, thank you! Alastair Haines (talk) 04:26, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
