Funny Cartoon Image Biography

source(google.com.pk)
I've heard from a few places that Jamie Lee Curtis is genetically male. I know it is

genetically possible for something like this to happen -- Ms. Curtis is the only famous

person I've ever heard linked to this "problem." Have you heard anything about this one?

One of my best friends is convinced it's impossible.

Dear Urban Legends:

Several years ago, a colleague who was married to a doctor told me that when her husband

was in medical school, one of the professors brought up Jamie Lee Curtis as an example of

someone who was born with an unusual chromosome structure (some variation of XXY).

The story goes that she had (at birth) both female and male sexual characteristics. I was

unconvinced by this tale, but my colleague (not one to exaggerate) insisted that it was

common knowledge in the medical community. Have you heard this one?
Dear Urban Legends:

Is it true Jamie Lee Curtis is a hermaphrodite? I heard she admitted it on Oprah
Dear Readers:

Celebrities are always telling us that fame has its downsides, lurid gossip being one of

them. Few could make a better case than actress Jamie Lee Curtis, who for two decades has

been saddled with rumors that she was a hermaphrodite at birth (or, as it has been more

crudely put, "born with a penis").

This has never been proven, mind you, but most folks seem satisfied with the argument that

the info was passed along by a friend of a friend who happens to know a doctor who was told

about it in medical school, so it has to be true (or some variation thereof). If that

doesn't convince, they may point out that Curtis adopted her two children instead of

conceiving. Oh, and she has a unisex first name!

None of which, of course, proves anything.

What is a hermaphrodite?

The word hermaphrodite comes from Hermaphroditus, the name given to the son of the ancient

Greek gods Hermes and Aphrodite. According to mythology, Hermaphroditus was so loved by the

nymph Salmacis that she prayed they could be united as one person — and literally got her

wish. The two were transformed into one being who was both male and female.

First used as such in the 15th century, hermaphrodite is an all-but-obsolete medical term

(clinicians now prefer intersex) for a set of conditions characterized mainly by genitalia

which are either "ambiguous" (i.e., not clearly male or female) or at odds with the

subject's chromosomal gender. Depending on the specific symptoms, hermaphroditism /

intersexuality may be the result of a genetic anomaly or a hormonal excess or deficiency

during gestation. It has been estimated that as many as 1 in 2,000 children born in the

United States are diagnosed with ambiguous external genitalia, of whom a very small

percentage undergo "sex reassignment" surgery in infancy.
The specific condition most often attributed to Ms. Curtis is AIS, or Androgen

Insensitivity Syndrome. People born with AIS are genetically male (defined as having one X

and one Y chromosome) but are resistant to androgens, the hormones responsible for male

sexual development. As a result, they display female physical characteristics despite being

genetically male. "In its classic form (complete androgen resistance), the person appears

to be female but has no uterus, and has sparse armpit and pubic hair," states the

MedlinePlus Medical Encyclopedia. "At puberty, female secondary sex characteristics (e.g.,

breasts) develop, but menstruation and fertility do not."

Why Jamie Lee Curtis?

It bears pointing out that Ms. Curtis was neither the first nor the last female celebrity

to whom gender ambiguity has been attributed. Marlene Dietrich, Greta Garbo, and Mae West

endured similar whisper campaigns during their respective heydays, according to Paul Young,

author of L.A. Exposed: Strange Myths and Curious Legends in the City of Angels (St.

Martin's Press, 2002). So did '80s disco star Grace Jones, and, more recently pop music

divas Ciara and Lady Gaga. One thing all of these famous performers have in common is some

degree of androgyny -- either in appearance, or behavior, or both -- that sets them apart

from "normal" women. Curtis, who easily passes for "butch" when she dresses down for a role

and has her hair cut short, has also been singled out for what film critic Bill Cosford

once called her "androgynous appeal." Facebook is one of the popular social networking site. By using Facebook you can make new
