I'm enjoying reading this story very much, a I've enjoyed all of your other stories Melodie. Personally I think that intersex people are more common then most realize. The estimated numbers that are cited are all over the place. Some reports say as low as 1 in 10,000 to as high as 1 in 200 or even 1 in 50 people are intersex. the problem has been due to the long standing policy of erasing an records of children who were born intersex that had under gone gender assignment surgery as infants.

Tiffany/Tim's loss of erections, such as they were, no sexual desire one way or the other, little body hair, small under developed male genitals, an androgynous body, small stature, higher then average voice for a male, no adams apple, stomach cramps and foul smelling bloody discharge every four weeks or so all sound rather familiar to me, as I've experienced something much the same. While I had suspected that there was a fair chance that I might be intersex, it wasn't until I was 3 years into my transition, that I was able to afford to get medical conformation that was in deed born with an as yet unknown intersex condition. In my case, the best evidence are all the surgical scars on my genitals from having under gone gender assignment surgery as an infant to assign me as a male. My natural hormone levels were all wacky, (my endos description.) Back when I was still clueless and still trying to be the good male, I used to get frustrated at how often I would be mistaken for a woman on the phone. since transitioning other trans people how've met me remark a how good my voice is and ask how long I've been practicing it. they're floored when I explain that this is my natural voice. After I had started transitioning and had made good progress on getting electrolysis to get rid of my facial hair, (which BTW: was the result of getting testosterone shots in my late teens and early twenties), I very quickly became passable even though I had not started HRT yet. After I was finally able to start on HRT, it was surprising at just how fast I reached the point that I could no longer pass as male, even though I was trying to at the time for work and doing business. The event that convinced me to at last go full time and start working on my legal Name and gender marker changes was the day I went to the library to get a replacement for my worn out library card. I handed my old card and my drivers license to the librarian and requested a new card. She looked at the license then at me and back again doing a double take a few times. She got a puzzled look and asked my if I was Mrs Urban? I had to explain that no I was indeed Mr Urban and that I wasn't married. She shrugged and issued me a new card. I stared on changing my name and gender markers later that week. I have been living happily full time for over five years now and there's no way that I could ever pass as a male ever again.

Living the dream.
