:p my name is joann, and I am 37 years old and never been married. I do not have any children, either. However, I am very much interested in learning about babies who are born with medical conditions that are unusual and extremely rare, such as ambiguous genitalia. This topic interests me because i've been trying to work on a novel about a young woman in her thirties named joey who was born with ambiguous genitalia. She was also four months premature, so she is mildly learning and developmentally delayed, too. But despite her condition and her premature birth, she wound up with superior 20/15 eye vision and a cute "outie" belly button that looks like a mild umbilical hernia, the kind that does not require surgery or treatment. She never grew any pubic hair, either. Her ambiguous genitalia is an enlarged, very penis-like clitoris, and it has intact foreskin, fused labia, and a urinary opening right on its tip. It is probably about three or four inches long and one or two inches thick when hard and fully erect. There are no other male or female external genitalia, not even a vaginal opening. There are ovaries inside her body, though, but they don't produce any egg cells, and no other male or female internal reproductive organs were found. Joey weighed just one pound and was only nine inches long at birth. She is now only five feet tall and ninety pounds. She was born in 1973, four months before christmas day, her due date, and she has short, pageboy-styled brown hair with bangs, deep blue eyes with long lashes, small to medium size breasts, a very feminine voice that is somewhat childlike, a cute boyish figure with narrow hips and a slight build, and very angelic-looking pennsylvania dutch facial features with full pink lips, plump, rosy cheeks, perfect pearly white teeth, and a shy but stunning smile. As you can see, joey is very much a genetic female, but also very much a child-woman. She is a bit of a tomboy, too. She doesn't want anything to do with dressing up or being feminine and ladylike. She is extremely self-conscious, too, but she doesn't hate the way her body looks. She just doesn't like to get undressed in front of other people, which is understandable given her circumstances. I envy joey. I wish I was her. Or I at least wish I had her body and her eyesight. I would still feel extremely self-conscious about nudity in front of other people, but I would never hate my body the way I do now. Anyway, if there are any parents of female children out there who were born with a condition very similar to what joey has, and no surgery was performed on them, please post a response. I need ideas for my novel. Thank you!
