Definition

It is estimated that perhaps 1 percent of live births exhibit some degree of sexual ambiguity. About one in 2,000 births are ambiguous enough to become the subject of specialist medical attention, and the majority of these are subjected to surgery to disguise their sexual ambiguity. -- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intersexual, Mar 18, 2004
