The fraternal womb twin survivor (5) gender confusion

In the whole of the Womb Twin project (see here) there has been no other subject that has aroused such strong feelings as gender confusion.  To carry opposite gender energy is very confusing, and sole surviving fraternal twins who once had a twin of the opposite sex (OSDZ twins) do sometimes receive a dose of opposite sex hormone if the placentas overlap.

The masculinised female
A girl with a lot of male energy may look boyish, but even if she looks very feminine  may act boyish, wanting  to be "one of the boys".  As early as seven years old, Margaret wanted badly to be a boy, thinking that boys had the best deal in life. She willingly embraced the feminist movement in the 1960s and has been a manager of a travel firm for some years. She has now discovered that she is a womb twin survivor and once had a twin brother.

The feminised male

Matthew was always ultra sensitive and tended to weep easily. he was happiest with his Mum and let her cut his hair, enjoying the intimacy of it. By 13 years old he was over six feet tall and was slender but althletic. He loved to be  in the company of women and knows that this is because his twin, lost at 13 weeks of pregnancy, was an OSDZ sister.

Intersex
Dominic always felt as if he was female, despite the fact that he is a husband and father. A recent DNA test has shown that he is a chimera, of both male and female. After many years of feeling like a freak, at last he knows that the female side of him is his absorbed OSDZ twin sister.

Transgender
Teresa started life as a male but yearned to be female. Her DNA is XXY  A hermaphrodite. She fought the feeling for twenty years, married and had children, but finally had hormone treatment and surgery so she is now a woman.  She has so much female energy that she cannot remember now ever being a male - that is, until her children call her  "Dad".
