Two Different Worlds I've Lived In: The True Story of Being Intersex

by Wilma Swartz

Wilma's mother was believed to be pregnant with twins due to fertility drugs taken by her. However, it was found that when the babies were born they were merged into one child. This child was male externally and female internally. The mother cleverly hid this fact from everyone including Wilma for 30 years. Born and raised as male, Bill's life was a living hell of confusion, hate, deception and betrayal. Due to the medicine that Bill had to take to suppress the female hormones from sending his body into menstruation and embarrassingly leaking breast milk, he was given an die or allow his female hormones to take over. This is the story of Wilma and Bill's struggle to live and die.
