Actually, I am a Rocket Scientist.
Also hormonally odd (my blood has 46xy chromosomes anyway) and for most of my life, I looked male, and lived as one, trying to be the best Man a Gal could be. Anyway, in May 2005 that started changing naturally for reasons still unclear, and I'm now Zoe, not Alan : happier and more relaxed not to have to pretend any more.
UPDATE - reason now identified as the 3BHSD form of CAH.
This blog, written by a rocket scientist, is a fascinating collection of information, both personal and scientific, regarding intersex, transsexualism and related psychosocial and psychosexual issues. ... It is erudite and heartfelt. Just read the posts about the passport issue. You won't know whether to laugh, weep or crawl into a ball and rock gently in a corner - an amazing person. - David --- The reason I so appreciate bright, perceptive people - as opposed to ideologues whose intelligence does little to illuminate - is that they manage to both instruct and learn with a certain grace. Among such rarities in the transblogosphere is Zoe, whose direct speech and clear humanity always make her worth reading, even if one doesn’t always agree with her every conclusion. - Val --- The following is a request for permission to archive your A.E.Brain blog site which we have wanted to do for several years... The Library has traditionally collected items in print, but it is also committed to preserving electronic publications of lasting cultural value.... Since (1996) we have been identifying online publications and archiving those that we consider have national significance.... We would like to include A.E.Brain blog site in the PANDORA Archive... -Australian National Library

Those are great--as are the plush germs set. Let's get our kids learning science!
My daughter had a set of several stuffed dinosaurs. Now of course, it is all Bakugan, all the time.
Oh, how I need these. ALL OF THEM
The Complete Set. With Antiparticles.
What I think is neat is that the massless ones are filled with styrofoam, the heaviest ones with polished aquarium gravel.
Yes, I want, but I have better things to spend $400 US (postage inc to Australia) on.
I think I always will do. Like helping someone who's destitute with the cost of 8 months worth of hormones. Possibly saving a life.
Oh well. *wistful sigh* Just think how lucky I am to have something even better to spend my money on!
Those are adorable!
