Has anyone else heard of or read this book? I used to own it, and am thinking about buying it again. It's quite good, and it brings up some very valid arguments for the "nature vs nurture" debate. Some of the things that are described in this book are pretty disturbing, just as a slight warning for anyone who might want to check it out.

Re: As Nature Made Him: The Boy Who Was Raised as a Girl
I think there are other way to expand my mind on nature vs nurture than to read about transgender stuff. No thank you.The Cyclops having only one eye, needed to seek shelter from the harsh sun. The shadow cast by the spheres gave him temporary respite.

I've heard about it. Its about David Reimer and how he lost he penis in a botched, unnecessary circumsion. His doctor then decided to give him a sex change and have his parents raise him as a women.
He changed back to man and commited suicide not too long ago.Last edited by jvrlopez; 02-10-2007, 04:04 AM.Comment
