Here's an article that might interest those following The Legend of Alfhildr:

We're talking really old, 10th century, close to Alfhildr's time.

Today's New York Times published this article on gender testing in sports. I think the paper has had generally good treatment of the issue.

This is step towards expanding "the definition of violent federal hate crimes to those committed because of a victim’s sexual orientation, a step that would extend new protection to lesbian, gay and transgender people."

I wonder if most species of mammals have about the same incidence of intersex conditions?
