Mailing Lists about conditions of intersexed people. I don't know very much about the topic, but what's wrong with that?

Three sites have the word disease in the description, not a lot. Two of those have the word Disease in the title.

Those ODP titles represent the title of the site according to ODP standards - so if you do not like the use of the word disease, I think you have to talk to the site/group owner and get them to change the title of the site / Yahoo Group

Addison's disease is the correct medical name for a rare endocrine disorder that affects 1 in 100000 people.

If you read the description for the Intersexed category, you'll see "Information by and for intersexed folks: people who were born with anatomy that differs from cultural ideas of what "male" which seems to apply to people with Turner syndrome. Now, you might argue that the links should be moved to http://dmoz.org/Health/Conditions_and_Diseases/Genetic_Disorders/Turner_Syndrome and an @link to that category added to http://dmoz.org/Society/Transgendered/Intersexed/Health_and_Wellness/ but it isn't wrong for the sites to be associated with the Intersexed category.
