pseudohermaphrodite in a sentence
Examples
- German-Swiss pathologist Edwin Klebs is sometimes noted for using the word " pseudohermaphroditism " in his taxonomy of intersexuality in 1876, although the word is clearly not his invention as is sometimes reported; the history of the word " pseudohermaphrodite " and the corresponding desire to separate " true " hermaphrodites from " false ", " spurious ", or " pseudo " hermaphrodites, dates back to at least 1709, when Dutch anatomist Frederik Ruysch used it in a publication describing a subject with testes and a mostly female phenotype . " Pseudohermaphrodite " also appeared in the " Acta Eruditorum " later that same year, in a review of Ruysch's work.
