Karyotypes

[foxgrrl]

People frequently ask me whether I have XX or XY [sex] chromosomes. I honestly don't know. I've never been tested. What chromosomes do you have? I mean they test everyone don't they? It sure seems like they tested everyone but me…

I haven't got a clue and have never been tested. The tone of your post is correct, who in gods name has ever been tested for that? My parents thought I would be a girl, the doctor said so, I don't think that back in 83 they determined that with a genetic test, they just squinted at the ultrasound, maybe I was just tucking it back then. Then again they did miss a twin brother as well so I imagine they weren't looking too hard at that ultrasound.
