Gender!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
After watching the video last week on the situation that happened after the son genitals were cut off, we learn that even that gender can be picked by some accounts for others, but the same cant be said for all. The most intriguing thing I learned from that unfortunate situation was that Doctors feel that programming the mind can sometimes over weigh the feelings that individuals feel biologically. Its sad that this entire situation shows that the study of the human format can not be put into one box based on what we are taught to believe. In class after watching the video i mentioned the complex situation that takes place mostly in the Dominican Republic of boys being born where their genitals do not fall as children but when they turn 12 their genitals fall that make their own decision on what gender to choose based on their individual feeling. This is a powerful subject but I would to discuss how these situations are handled in other countries.
