None of my friends or family, except my parents, knows that I was born a hermaphrodite. As a baby I was passed off as a girl to all who knew my parents. When I was about eight an operation was done to remove the tiny penis I was born with. The penis was said to be inactive, the doctors claim. It was not fully developed and I did not develop any testes either. I sometimes wonder if my friends and family knew if they would treat me differently. My parents made it so that even my siblings are not aware of this information.
