Did anyone see Oprah today?

Now this was a fascinating Oprah show. 3 pairs Identical twins and one twin each had a sex change. 2 went from woman to men and one went from man to woman. They are doing studies to see what in the brain(genes or environmental) could make this happen.

It's no different than any of thousands of Oprah's shows over the years. This must be very lonely and most families don't make it easier. I actually understand this better than homosexuality. Being Gay can be attributed to nature of nurture....not this is absolutely nature created at time of conception or in the womb while mom was carrying.
