Every once in a while you see the "D.E.S" subject come to light.
If you aren't familiar, several published studies in the medical literature on 
psycho-neuro-endocrinology have examined the hypothesis that prenatal 
exposure to estrogens (including Diethylstilbestrol) may cause 
significant developmental impact on sexual differentiation of the brain,
 and on subsequent behavioural and gender identity development in 
exposed males and females. There is significant evidence linking 
prenatal hormonal influences on gender identity and transsexual 
development. 
From my understanding of the subject, the chances are good my mother was given the drug. Of course I will never know but the whole topic just makes me a little bitter.
All of the gender ripping and tearing, all the pain and suffering was all out of my reach. None of it was anyone's fault. It was just a drug dispensed without the knowledge of long term effects. No control.
I half way expect to see one of those legal commercials that says "If your mother took DES and you are transgendered or transsexual-call this number".
