According to the report, it is so common to be a pseudohermaphrodite in Salinas, that it is accepted as a third sex, alongside male and female. The newspaper reports of a 24-year-old boy identified only as Johnny, who is physically and biologically male but was once known as Felicitia.
As a child, he did not have a penis and was brought up as a girl. In his chat with the newspaper, Johnny was quoted to have said: “I remember I used to wear a little red dress and I was born at home instead of in a hospital. They didn’t know what sex I was.

“I went to school and I used to wear my skirt but I never liked to dress as a girl. When they bought me girls toys I never bothered playing with them. All I wanted to do was play with the boys.”

The rare genetic disorder is caused by a missing enzyme which prevents the production of the male sex hormone dihydro-testosterone in the womb.
It creates what looks like a baby girl on birth. But at puberty, when testosterone flows, their voices break and they grow a male sexual reproductive organ that they become recognised as male.
