I expectantly await the trans community claiming Hitler as 'intersex'...

Ooh yes… she is brilliant. And one of the women who I think was largely ‘erased’ from Steve Coogan’s Richard III film to make it look as if the uni was a bunch of sexist wallops. One of her former (male) colleagues has just won damages from Coogan over this. Ironic it appears the only sexist wallop was Coogan, for taking all of the female academics’ contributions out of his movie. Sorry, nothing to do with Hitler…

Agreed. Richard Taylor deserved the compensation.

Steve Coogan decided Philippa Gregory was the female hero and there was no space for Turi.

Interesting.

My understanding is that Andrei Chikatilo, the Soviet mass-murderer, also had a sexual disorder. He was mocked for it by people he confided in, and this had an impact on his criminal acts.

Sample size too small (also see: Kaiser Bill and his withered arm).

If only he had worn the right shoes 😫

You beat me to it, Turi King worked on the King Richard III identification. That certainly adds credibility to the project and the ethical dilemma.

There was a young man from Devizes
Whose balls were of different sizes.
One was so small
It was no ball at all;
The other had won several prizes.

Sorry I think it should be ' allegedly' .....

I believe Goering had two.

But apparently quite small......

Professor Turi King is very good on the ethics of genetics, as well as being a great presenter, and I'll definitely be watching the documentary.

That's a really interesting and thoughtful article. Especially in respect of the ethics of the research and the danger of the results being misused to generate stupidly reductive and stigmatising speculation about the relationship between his atrocities and his possible health conditions.

Any news on whether Himmler was very similar?

I heard Goebbels had no balls at all

I believe there are rival theories.
