This is such an interesting and insightful article. I hope it sheds some of the ignorance people have about being intersex or just being “different”. The world is so diverse and we don’t and can’t know everything,I hope articles like these help to open peoples minds. Its hard enough trying to “fit in” as a teenager no matter your shape, size, colour… etc but when nature throws you challenge such as being intersex, I can’t even begin to image the cruelty and or indnorance one has to indure. I just think that regardless of how we are made and what we look like we are evolving and we are all beautiful. The comment made by “anon” is just the sort of comment made by ignorant, insecure people how quite frankly, we could do with less of.

Do you ever come across cold sores on any dead people? If so, can you cover them?

I have always been interested in doing this for a living. I am sorry I never persued it now that I am 55 and too old to start a career. I don’t know how long the schooling is. I sure did love reading your first hand experiences on it Carry. IT is the first time anyone has ever done that so I thank you cause we all wonder what it is like.

Wow!!! I have wanted to be a mortician ever since I saw this movie about a mortician lady who falls in love with this guy. It interested me more than psychology. My grandmother hates the fact that I want to be in this type of a profession and environment but after two months she finally realized that I really am interested in it. I am a horror movie fanatic and I always loved the fact of being able to work with the dead. I love cosmetology also! I really would like to get some professional advice and listings on things. Please email me back at Jinxed77@comcast.net!!! Thanks,

Hi, my friends in Malaysia are in this profession and they are looking to stock up their make up supplies but could not find anywhere to buy them (they bought them years ago). Would you be able to tell me where I could buy the product hydeco? Otherwise, I need to find a company that would ship to the UK as I am based there. Any information would be very useful. Many thanks.

I am interested in getting into this profession. I have a B.A. in Fine Art and also am in a new profession where I have had A & P, disease, pharmacology classes, etc. I was hoping to be able to learn the makeup part.
Thanks for any information you might be able to give me,
