Does Dominican Republic have a large population of hermaphrodites?
The Dominican Republic is known for a unique socio-cultural phenomenon called "guevedoces," which refers to individuals born with ambiguous genitalia who typically identify as male after puberty. This condition, caused by a genetic disorder affecting testosterone production, is relatively rare but has garnered attention and study. While the population of individuals with such intersex conditions exists, it is not considered large in the general population context.
