Do you think, did "John/Joan case" uncover all of "Sexual Signatures : on Being a Man or a Woman" by Dr.Money have been lies?
(for example, Dr.Money discovered biological sex being various)
Do you think, did "John/Joan case" become absolute evidence of an opinion that manliness/womanliness was made inherently?
When you answered to an interview with Mr.Yamamoto (newswriter for Sekai Nippo), did you already read the paper "Politics of Difference (it means japanese text "Sai no Seijiggaku")" by Prof.Ueno Chizuko?
To Dr. Diamond
I'm sorry for bothering you by a sudden E-mail. My name is Makinami Konburoh, I am a Japanese junior college student. I am interested in Gender Studies.
On February 16, 2005, an article appeared in Sekai Nippo (the Japanese version of "World Times") . The article quoted the interview with you by Mr.Yamamoto (newswriter for Sekai Nippo). According to the report, you mentioned studies on "John/Joan Case" and criticized the paper "The Politics of Difference" by Prof.Ueno Chizuko, Tokyo University. Mr.Yamamoto claimed that you said "Her argument has no academic plausibility".
I, myself, read the paper, and I know Prof. Ueno makes a sharp distinction between "Gender" and "Sex". Surely, studies on "John/Joan Case" revealed some misconceptions (or deceptions) in "Man & Woman, Boy & Girl: Differentiation and Dimorphism of Gender Identity from Conception to Maturity" by Dr. Money. It does not imply, I believe, that the gender and sexual identity are totally determined by biological sex. However, the article in Sekai Nippo said, quoting you, that studies on "John/Joan Case" refute Gender/Sex distinction and therefore Prof. Ueno.
In Japan, recently, a backrush to feminism and gender equality is getting popularity, abusing the book "As Nature Made Him". I'm afraid that Sekai Nippo distorted what you said in the interview, in order to participate in the backrush. I can't believe that you, who have studied on "intersexuality" for many years, denied Gender/Sex distinction. I'm trying to verify the article in Sekai Nippo, so I have 3 questions to you. I was wondering if you could give me answers about their question, and give me permission to show these questions and your answer.
Q1. Do you think, did "John/Joan case" uncover all of "Sexual Signatures : on Being a Man or a Woman" by Dr.Money have been lies?
(for example, Dr.Money discovered biological sex being various)
Q2. Do you think, did "John/Joan case" become absolute evidence of an opinion that manliness/womanliness was made inherently?
Q3. When you answered to an interview with Mr.Yamamoto (newswriter for Sekai Nippo), did you already read the paper "Politics of Difference (it means Japanese text "Sai no Seijigaku")" by Prof.Ueno Chizuko?
I'm sorry to trouble you, but I don't want sexism in Japan to abuse your authority.
I am looking forward to getting your e-mail.
