[edit] Removed some sources and clarified

I removed the Annalee Newitz article because it is chock-a-block full of errors.

I removed the Jen Philips article because it is no longer available (404).

I removed the claim that Cheryl Chase was subjected to "sex change operation" and to "vaginoplasty" because, in fact, I was only subjected to clitorectomy. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Cherylchase (talk • contribs).

What are the errors in the Newitz article? The threshold for inclusion in Wikipedia is verifiability, not truth, so we usually don't remove sources outright, but note contradictory statements in sources. Also, what year did you graduate MIT? As it reads, this happened after you returned from Japan. I want to get the chronology right. Thanks! Jokestress 06:04, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
