I believe that the human embryo's sexual parts develop late during the 
pregnancy and that the material is in place before the embryo decides 
what sex it is. Late during the pregnancy the embryo (or featus) 
produces hormones that alter the babies sexual parts. I have heard that 
the ovaries of a female form the testicles of a male (there is a medical 
condition where sometimes the testicles don't make it to the scrotum).

Anyway that's my ideas, but I'm not really into anatomy so I am possibly 
wrong!
