So, I've heard of Spontaneous Human Combustion.
But has anybody ever just changed genders? I mean, without surgery or steroids or anything intentional.

Anyway I was watching CSI the other night, and Grissam was telling a transgendered person at the end of the show about some kind of oyster that changes gender during its' life.

I was just wondering if anyone's ever heard of this happening with a human being.

These are the kinds of things I'm thinking about while I eat my Pizza Uno leftovers at 7 oclock in the morning at work.

3. There was a story about a person in Australia a few decades ago...
who apparently DID fall subject to this sort of phenomenon. Born as a female, I believe, but then developed to be progressively more male. I remember reading a big article in the newspaper about this nearly 20 years ago. The person concerned ended up getting their gender 'properly' changed to male and and lived happily ever after in a town in northern New South Wales.

4. Frogs can do that, too.
And the dinosaurs did it in "Jurassic Park".
