Expert Solution
Intersex babies are born with
conflicting sexualities and may be divided into various categories, depending
on the physical qualities they portray. When they're born, their families
decide the gender of the babies for doctors to perform surgery according to the
parents' wishes. However, brain development varies from a normal baby's
development, considering their sexuality is both male and female from birth. Lessons
learnt from intersex babies teach us that the human brain cannot be wholly
female or male. Some brain parts portray female and male characteristics
(Thomson, 2019).
