Oh Those rose colored glasses! They sure look nice and sound nice and I would hope the whole world had a pair to wear.....BUT!! Bottom line Cindi is regardless of WHERE this person is from and THEIR policy on sexuality. SHE CHOSE to come to a support board to ask a personal question about someones genitals and how they are treated in conjunction with them. Would you ask some one if they are treated differently or discriminated against if they have a BIG nose. No Way ........ our common courtesy and manners keep us from doing so. WHY do you feel it is OK for the parents and CAH population to be treated with such disregard and lack of compassion? Do we subject ourselves to it because we share our thoughts and pain on this support board. I don’t think so.  To ignore the question without responding leaves the question wide open for others who KNOW nothing about CAH to answer...passing misinformation on a support board that we all TRY to keep the facts and the subject of CAH as correct as we KNOW it today. Also God and Christianity have nothing to do with voicing an opinion to someone who has been rude to us.  We do offer prayers and support here for the parents  and CAH population and I for one think we can’t have too many of them. Laura was voicing her thoughts and expressing her wishes to this person and she has the right to vent to this person and you should not judge a person until you walk a mile in there moccassins. If YOU feel this board is rude and insensitive this is your opinion. I don’t believe it is........I do believe however it is OUR responsiblity to get the facts about CAH and terminology of it CORRECT. We WILL use every resource and EVERY technique and EVERY CHANCE we get to correct the unknowing researchers or medical students or the GQ public about our passion of the CAH world and our children.

Sincerely
Cherry Lane
