Hermaphrodite heifer?

This entire LGBT thing has ruined everything. You need to have a special spot in your pasture for this one to pee.

If she doesn't settle, she/he will have plenty of time to pee on the trailer

On the freemartins that I saw a penis it was basicly a penis instead of a clitorus. The hair also sort of resembled a bristle brush.
Wouldn't the vet have recognized it being a freemartin during the pelvic measurement, or the tech during the AI?
Probably, but it depends on the degree of the bull twins affect. If a bull twin was present at conception then is sloughed or reabsorbed you won;t know that it was a twin to a bull.
But other then that weird tissue sticking out she doesn;t look like a freemartin from the look of the vulva itself.
 
Ol' 243,
I keep wondering where this LGBT 'community' they keep talking about on the news is.
Mostly so I can avoid that part of the county (or country).
Guess it's the liberal progressive way of making those lifestyle choices sound all cozy and forcing the rest of us to accept that as 'normal'. I'm not buying.

I'm not certain that's an enlarged clitoris...seems to be originating pretty high up - may be a polyp, or a little benign fibroleiomyoma - a tumor of fibrous and smooth muscle tissues - I see them from time to time- and have seen some in cows almost as big as my head.

I live in one of the most rural areas of Alabama, it is "country", never thought I'd see them kind around here, but there is a fella that lives right down the road from me who runs a sausage washin' factory at his house.

.3% of the population so I read and I think that's probably pushing it.



Dr. Paul R. McHugh, the former psychiatrist-in-chief for Johns Hopkins Hospital and its current Distinguished Service Professor of Psychiatry, said that transgenderism is a "mental disorder" that merits treatment, that sex change is "biologically impossible," and that people who promote sexual reassignment surgery are collaborating with and promoting a mental disorder.

Dr. McHugh, the author of six books and at least 125 peer-reviewed medical articles, made his remarks in a recent commentary in the Wall Street Journal, where he explained that transgender surgery is not the solution for people who suffer a "disorder of 'assumption'" – the notion that their maleness or femaleness is different than what nature assigned to them biologically.

He also reported on a new study showing that the suicide rate among transgendered people who had reassignment surgery is 20 times higher than the suicide rate among non-transgender people. Dr. McHugh further noted studies from Vanderbilt University and London's Portman Clinic of children who had expressed transgender feelings but for whom, over time, 70%-80% "spontaneously lost those feelings."

While the Obama administration, Hollywood, and major media such as Time magazine promote transgenderism as normal, said Dr. McHugh, these "policy makers and the media are doing no favors either to the public or the transgendered by treating their confusions as a right in need of defending rather than as a mental disorder that deserves understanding, treatment and prevention."


"This intensely felt sense of being transgendered constitutes a mental disorder in two respects. The first is that the idea of sex misalignment is simply mistaken – it does not correspond with physical reality. The second is that it can lead to grim psychological outcomes."

The transgendered person's disorder, said Dr. McHugh, is in the person's "assumption" that they are different than the physical reality of their body, their maleness or femaleness, as assigned by nature. It is a disorder similar to a "dangerously thin" person suffering anorexia who looks in the mirror and thinks they are "overweight," said McHugh.

This assumption, that one's gender is only in the mind regardless of anatomical reality, has led some transgendered people to push for social acceptance and affirmation of their own subjective "personal truth," said Dr. McHugh. As a result, some states – California, New Jersey, and Massachusetts – have passed laws barring psychiatrists, "even with parental permission, from striving to restore natural gender feelings to a transgender minor," he said.

The pro-transgender advocates do not want to know, said McHugh, that studies show between 70% and 80% of children who express transgender feelings "spontaneously lose those feelings" over time. Also, for those who had sexual reassignment surgery, most said they were "satisfied" with the operation "but their subsequent psycho-social adjustments were no better than those who didn't have the surgery.

"And so at Hopkins we stopped doing sex-reassignment surgery, since producing a 'satisfied' but still troubled patient seemed an inadequate reason for surgically amputating normal organs," said Dr. McHugh.

The former Johns Hopkins chief of psychiatry also warned against enabling or encouraging certain subgroups of the transgendered, such as young people "susceptible to suggestion from 'everything is normal' sex education," and the schools' "diversity counselors" who, like "cult leaders," may "encourage these young people to distance themselves from their families and offer advice on rebutting arguments against having transgender surgery."

Dr. McHugh also reported that there are "misguided doctors" who, working with very young children who seem to imitate the opposite sex, will administer "puberty-delaying hormones to render later sex-change surgeries less onerous – even though the drugs stunt the children's growth and risk causing sterility."

Such action comes "close to child abuse," said Dr. McHugh, given that close to 80% of those kids will "abandon their confusion and grow naturally into adult life if untreated …."



"'Sex change' is biologically impossible," said McHugh. "People who undergo sex-reassignment surgery do not change from men to women or vice versa. Rather, they become feminized men or masculinized women. Claiming that this is civil-rights matter and encouraging surgical intervention is in reality to collaborate with and promote a mental disorder."

The South has always been loaded with them kind. I saw that documentary film :banana: ....Deliverance. :cowboy:
 
Vet showed me pictures on his phone last week of a hermaphrodite 3 year old cow that had a tiny penis coming out of her rectum. Apparently the owner feels she is a pet and wanted the penis excised.

I do not believe that a hermaphrodite could carry a pregnancy due to interference of male hormones during pregnancy, which should prevent continued growth of the embryo. Just my educated guess.

Hermaphroditism is normal in 65,000 species in which one individual has the functional reproductive parts of both sexes. For example, an earthworm. These species are monecious.

In mammals, only one sex is developed in each individual. Mammals are diecious. Hermaphroditism is a defect and usually means an individual has both male and female anatomy about where it is suppose to be. Usually due to genetic or embryonic malformaties. It is odd that the penis would protrude from the anus.

It is possible for a hermaphroditic cow to be fertile depending on the cause of the condition. There are clinical cases where humans who have been clinically diagnosed as hermaphrodites have been reproductively functional. Freemartins are not hermaphrodites. They are the result of twining where the female has an underdeveloped female reproductive system due to the impact of the male twin's androgens on the female twin.
