Fascinating. It makes me wonder how gender can be determined for
marriage or House membership. Can people accept a male who looks female
and vice versa? The possibilities the future has in store for us . . .

It won't invalidate a marriage. I know a transgender individual who
was born with ambiguous gender, fairly. There are also cases of
'pseudo-hermaphroditism" which is a chromosomally male individual
whose body does not change to male when testosterone is produced by
the developing fetus in the womb.
One must realize that ALL human fetuses are female in the womb. Until
the chemical magic of response to hormones is complete and any where
along that tortuouse route abnormalities can occur.
The physical identification of gender is not really an either or
situation.
